My 50% Discount/Rebate policy at regular consumer retail sale and the retail point of Finance, namely one’s mortgage, automobile, insurance or other big ticket item directly addresses and resolves this problem. Inflation? No problem when the new monetary paradigm breaks up the present monopoly paradigm for the creation and distribution of virtually all new money is Strategic Monetary Gifting at the terminal summing point of all costs and hence price (retail sale) with a 50% discount/credit there and an equal rebate/debit back to the merchant granting that discount to the consumer IOW utilizing MMT’s insight that money is created with equal debits and credits that sum to zero. The effect? Doing the central banks job by transforming chronic erosive inflation into into beneficial price and asset deflation. (Invalidation of The Quantity Theory of Money and Milton Friedman turns over in his grave and falls from the sixth to the seventh level of hell.) Full employment? Well in our emerging age of AI that also requires a UBI and job guarantee, but mathematically doubling everyone’s purchasing power in the mean time goes a long way toward creating the textbook definition of “good economic times” and staving off the catastrophe waiting to happen when all but two of the AI enterprises go out of business and the others are looking to be bailed out by the central bank.

Change the ideas/concepts/paradigms creating and re-inforcing mental and temporal universe reality behind our systems and you go to the source of the problem instead of only sticking one’s finger in the hole in the dike with a paradigm of Systemic Reforms Only.
