Gracious as in caring and yet,

Sovereign as in powerful, effective and yet redeemed by,

Ethical as in the greatest good for the whole while,

Wise as in dynamically integrative of opposites and

Rational as in open mindedly scientific and finally,

Conscious as in continually renewing all of the above.

Had to post this simply because Kate Smith had such a terrific voice and the time to admire freedom is now. Of course patriotism like nearly every other concept can be used for good or evil purposes, but again the song is so beautifully sung. Perhaps if we remind ourselves that beauty is a harmonic of love, and the self actualization of the personal experience of grace which is love in action, then that logic will awaken and re-inforce such pursuit.

Yes, and if you try to bring full consciousness to economists and pundits of the new paradigm concept that is politically and theoretically integrative, and would free us to run the kind of fiscal deficits necessary to confront climate change and off planet production so our limits to growth could be expanded, then historically that one is ignored until crises force it or an orthodox individual with a platform cognites on it. This is because humans are excellent at describing problems, mediocre about crafting reforms and virtually incompetent with integrating the opposites that have always characterized paradigm changes. But one must soldier on.

Every increase in awareness, paradigm or mega-paradigm change, every personal improvement or temporal universe/systemic advance is primarily characterized by an aspect or aspects of the natural philosophical concept/experience of grace.

Why is this? It’s because grace is the natural state of the cosmos that self awareness/consciousness is set up to realize. Any argument that terrible acts/occurences contradict this is merely the unwillingness/inability to realize that without their opposites whatever is considered good has no actual meaning and is actually prohibitive of learning. Again, the woof and warp of life and the universe is set up as a potential learning/evolutionary process whose logical result is cognition that grace is the integrative, unitary, actual and personally achievable state

Live each moment of life as deeply and intimately as you can, but don’t get hung up in any area of it or particular moment of it. Bless everything because blessing is a deep way of experiencing that bounces back, and an integrative flow of blessing and being blessed is a great description of grace as in loving flow.

Ever since I started studying economics seriously I always tried to think integratively about the various researchers I came across. I learned alot and quickly learned to reject outmoded ways of thinking, but rather quickly I began to notice that even the theorists I liked and agreed with had blind spots, failures or unwillingness to consider integration of viewpoints and a distinct inability to actually think on the paradigmatic/pattern/essence/operant factors level. All of these people advocated policies that aligned with what I had discovered was the precise new paradigm concept, but they didn’t have a conscious knowledge of that specific concept and they also lacked the awareness of where, when and how to best implement policies for the maximum beneficial effect.

These were brilliant and erudite people, but they lacked the wholistic and integrative mode of thought so necessary to perceive a paradigm/pattern changing concept as well as the places to make the concept best work in the temporal universe. I chalk much of this up to the overwheening mindset of reductive science that modern intellectuals are habituated to, and conversely the lack of an integrative mindset which is the actual method of wisdom thinking.

Does this mean I’m against science? Never. Science is wonderful, delicious, necessary…and resides entirely within the microbiome/digestive tract of Wisdom/Spirituality. When we integrate the mindsets of science and wisdom is when mankind will finally begin to actually express and fulfill its species designation of homo sapiens, that is, wise and discerning man.

What Mankind desperately needs is to sprint toward applying the concept and experience of grace, i.e. love in personal action/systemic policy….with post haste.

There is no necessary conflict in anything above because love being the highest spiritual value and experience, grace being its active form/expression and one of the top aspects of grace being union of everything including opposites, such thinking and acting is completely and logically aligned.

May all beings everywhere be happy and free.

This is a beautiful Sanskrit mantra that offers a blessing of compassion and kindness to all beings.

Integrate the new monetary and financial paradigm of Direct and Reciprocal Monetary Gifting into the economic process with a 50% Discount/Rebate policy at retail sale, a 50% debt jubilee at the point of loan signing and a $1000/mo. universal dividend to everyone 18 years of age and older, and the aligned tax reductions and regulatory program enabled by the above three policies.

Why is this necessary and why does this resolve the recent chaos? Because the recent and future geo-political moves we’re seeing are actually a precursor and reflection of the resource wars we’ll be facing if we don’t get a solid grip on confronting the coming additional costs of climate change that are on top of the already identified, by Michael Hudson and Steve Keen, human civilization long destabilizing effects of the current monetary paradigm of Debt Only as the sole form and vehicle for the creation and distribution of money.

The first two policies terminatedly deal with the current monopoly monetary paradigm and empirically double everyone’s purchasing power while simultaneously doubling the potential demand for every enterprise’s goods and services and also integrating beneficial price and asset deflation into profit making economic systems.

The third policy of a universal dividend for everyone 18 and older enables us to immediately eliminate the taxes for welfare, unemployment insurance and even faze out social security…because if every adult has guaranteed purchasing power of $2000/mo. for their entire adult life ($1000/mo. doubled by the 50% Discount/Rebate policy at retail sale) why do we need the taxes for welfare, unemployment insurance and social security??? Eliminating these taxes that every working person and every enterprise pays unifies the self interests of the traditionally opposed political constituencies of labor vs management and consumer vs business.
Furthermore, ending inflation by integrating beneficial deflation as per above, and understanding that MMT tells us that in a fiat monetary system there is only two valid reason to actually tax at all (to direct social policy and compel/enforce personal and commercial compliance with the law) would enable us to further re-inforce this political integration of opposing self interests and reduce personal and corporate income taxes by at least half with the following two policies: 1) Personal and corporate taxes will be reduced by 50% if an enterprise does not increase their prices unless their total costs (factoring in the cost savings of the above policies) have actually increased and 2) If an enterprise does increase their prices despite the above cost savings and benefits then they will not receive the above 50% tax reductions, they will be taxed at a rate of 100% on any revenue they may have garnered from such increases, and if they persist they will lose their 50% Discount/Rebate benefits.

Money DOES make the world go ’round, and its new paradigm (Monetary Grace As In Gifting) makes it accomplish The Good.

Accounting is probably the most temporal universe grounded and effecting discipline humanity has ever invented, and paired with the monetary paradigm is the key to power on the same plane. In other words with the current monetary paradigm of Debt Only if you take out a loan and can’t pay it you ARE going to be moved one way or another. Conversely, if a bank loans too much money to an individual or corporation its an effecting problem for the bank, and as we saw in 2008 if a system creates too much debt service that system in its entirety is “in deep doo-doo”. And all of this is monitored (and potentially paradigmatically resolved) by the basic accounting actions of equal and reciprocal debits and credits.
