Retail Sale: Not Just The End Point Of The Economy

Retail sale can be understood as a broader point of final and/or continuous exchange. For instance Financial retail sale which is one’s mortgage, insurance, automobile or other big ticket item’s monthly payment. Taxes could also be considered as the retail point of government as well as the government deficit which is the amount of revenue needed to pay for government after taxation.

Recognizing this expanded concept of retail sale opens up a greater, more abundant and robust economy for every economic agent individual, commercial and systemic.

Taxes: The Retail Point of Government

Hence, a 50% Discount/Rebate there cuts your tax burden by 50%…without reducing tax total or the deficit.

Just mandate that the FED/General Reserve create and distribute the rebate.

All energy options need to be considered. Including under-planeting production with carbon sequestration. The key to beginning the energy solution is remedying both the present monetary distribution paradigm and hence the economic paradigm as well. Every progressive minded economist including Dr. Keen suggest policies that ryhme with Monetary Gifting (Debt Jubilee, UBI, government deficits, etc.) and these are all good policies.

However, none of them approach the universally participated in, macro-economic and continual effect that a 50% Discount/Rebate at the various points of retail sale throughout the economy would have, and that would simultaneously resolve the austerity, inflationary, indirectness, and confusion about “debt” economic problems…and serendipitously even the psycho-social malaise problem of modernity.

If we want paradigm change we have to analyze the economy conceptually/philosophically because applied concepts…are what paradigms are, and finding the most efficacious way to express and apply that new concept is what creates the “magic” of the paradigm change phenomenon.

So lets put the horse/conceptual analysis in front of the cart/systemic analysis and proceed with post haste.

The European Parliment is essentially a government making policy for the central banks of the Europe so its a kind of FED of the FEDs of each nation. And yes they do the same neo-classical stupidity as the US and elsewhere. The answer is the have the parliment and the American FED implement a 50% Discount/Rebate at retail sale and fund the rebate aspect of that policy.

Trump is the head, MAGA is the reactionary body of the problem. Authoritarianism/domination is contrary to Democracy/Americanism.

And the key to resolving these opposites is to change the monoply monetary and economic paradigm of Debt Only…with you know what. (The 50% Discount/Rebate policy at the various points of retail sale throughout the economy.)

Gracientialism: The Guiding Light of Applied Wisdom

The end of the dominance and tail chasing of the addiction to duality/unresolving opposites, and the beginning of the mental and temporal universe applied awareness of the resolving wisdom of trinity/thirdness greater oneness.

IOW freedom, continuous freeflowingness, benevolent intent and action and all of the other fruits of the natural philosophical concept of grace.

What this tells us is that people want a thirdness greater oneness of only the best aspects of the unresolving duality of capitalism versus socialism. That thirdness starts with breaking up the human civilization long monopoly paradigm that finance has wielded which is the applied concept of Debt Only for the creation and distribution of all new money. You don’t have to end debt, that would just be replacing one monopoly paradigm with another. You need to integrate Monetary Gifting into the Debt Only system.

We don’t need CAPITALISM!!!!! OR SOCIALISM!!!! We need a Wisdomics-Gracenomics.
