The first will revolutionize and evolutionize modern economies, and the latter will provide a simple, elegant, integrative and utterly workable and applicable formula for reducing/eliminating the unfortunately all too prevalent tendency in human history to merely react to Life instead of resolve its conflicts.

The is no such thing in the temporal and conscious human universe as total and utter freedom. That would include the freedom to commit crimes. In the real world there is in fact only freedom amongst barriers and what I refer to as freedom within the beatific chains of ethics. Embracing the necessity of ethics is the sane approach to life and living, and striving to have the highest most gracious code of ethics is the best and most complete strategy for both individual and collective survival.

In other words grace/graciousness is the pinnacle ethic and goal of fully conscious human beings.

Interesting Francois. The Oriental mindset has been adroit at bastardizing/twisting social credit for some time now as Japan did before WW II and by being an export platform that continues to this day.  Their (Chinese) fears of political instability are undoubtedly at least partially based on the longstanding reality that the West has exploited and disrupted their affairs, but they also undoubtedly have problems with authoritarianism and power as well.  The best thing that could happen of course is for America and Europe to adopt Social Credit, re-industrialize and thus vastly reduce their need for the Chinese export platform and so inviting them to adopt the benefits of Social Credit themselves, or at least re-direct their exporting elsewhere.

The reciprocal nature of the discount policy balances/negates the reciprocality/necessary repayment of Debt, and, if of sufficiently high percentage, actually inverts the inherent deflationary nature of Debt’s continual build up by transforming it into a price deflation that is beneficial to both the individual and enterprise. Thus it changes the entire vector of the economy from austerity and harmful general deflation to abundance and beneficial price deflation.

Steve Bannon is by all accounts well read and eclectic, but he’s the type of intellectual who just keeps on stuffing contradictory and often extremist ideas into his head…without ever trying or learning to integrate the particles of truth while deleting the particles (or gobs) of untruths that attend almost all modern intellectualism. Thus his ideology and MO is simply flux, force, power grab and repeat without cleaning or rinsing.

Bannon is unfortunately the mind behind the non-mind of Trump and the populist “wisdom” of Trumpism. He and the whole populist, nationalist movement need to go back to square one and integrate the truths and only the truths in apparently opposing perspectives because that is the very process of ACTUAL Wisdom.

Students:

$1500/mo they didn’t have before because of the dividend

40+% increase in their purchasing power via the discount policy and 40+% discount to college tuition and consequent reduction in amount they and/or their parents would need to borrow in order for them to get a higher education

Both more leisure time and a greater opportunity to supplement their incomes while in school because of increased employment as a result of the excellent business and investment climate via the dividend and discount policies

Businesses:

Much greater possibility of profitability because of both the dividend and discount policies

Elimination of inflation and beneficial integration of price deflation into profit making systems

Shhhhhh!  Greater small to medium sized business competitiveness with “big box” stores because general abundance could make decentralized factors like “family owned” and “hometown” more effective.

Regarding a Post Sapient Economics by Robert Locke:

Sapient indeed. Sapient as in integrative and Wise. What is needed is an integration of both of the mindsets you refer to. An integration that simultaneously informs abstractly and philosophically and, aligned with that philosophy, crafts and implements policies that, looking directly at the actual operations of commerce and their economic and monetary significance, then makes those policies work effectively and beneficially for virtually all agents.

Resolving individual and commercial monetary scarcity with Wisdomics-Gracenomics’ abundant Dividend and Discount policies and institutionalizing direct fiscal monetary distribution will finally free us to utilize the only legitimate reason for taxation….to discourage individual, commercial and systemic economic vices.

It ties an increase in purchasing power to prices everywhere and everywhen throughout the entirety of the economy thus not only eliminating inflation, but integrating price deflation painlessly, seamlessly, beneficially and saturatedly throughout same.

It fixes the leaky, hypnotizing and oppressive financial legerdemain that the paradigms of Finance have foisted on every individual and commercial agent since Sumerian civilization, and will literally bring life to dead modern economies.

Some say, “Oh Steve, your policies do harm to Finance.” The truth is Finance benefits the most and best from these policies….because it finally makes them an honest and workable business model instead of covertly dominant and problematic. “Man does not live by bread alone”, and neither does enterprise. Good will and actually cooperative effect are even more powerful than profit and control….because “pride cometh before a fall”.
