….that the Retail Discount/Rebate policy of a sufficiently high percentage (50%) changes the monetary system by resolving its deepest problems, ending the dominance of the paradigm of Debt Only and so, all by itself, implementing the better part of the new paradigm of Direct and Reciprocal Monetary Gifting.

If you get that fact, you get the paradigm and its transformation. Everything else, policy and regulation wise that proceeds from that, simply further implements and saturates the economy with the new paradigm.

This is what modern economics and the money system requires, and has rarely if ever been the reality. Provide universal relative abundance by both personal education and participation and by fiat policy, and awaken and encourage personal constructive purposes in as many areas of life as the individual desires.

Create a culture that is both benevolent and tolerant and yet has great moral and ethical fiber that also has an ethic of integrative thinking rather than obsessively contentious or schismatic egoistic opinion. I ntegrative that is of temporal thinking and personal knowing.

It’s time for man to come of age in all ways. To encourage and enable that maturation process in every way, especially and most urgently, in the realm of the economy and money system.

Come join with me in accomplishing these goals.

A 50% Discount/Rebate at the point of retail sale which immediately doubles everyone’s purchasing power and,

a $1000/mo. universal dividend for everyone 18 years of age and older.

That way a two adult household would have a guaranteed potential of $2000/mo. x 2 = $4000/mo. or $48,000 per year even if neither one had a job.

If both persons had part time jobs that paid them $20,000/yr that’s another $80,000 or $128,000/year total potential purchasing power.

Also, because a sufficient dividend means they will not be paying taxes for welfare and  unemployment insurance because these will be immediately redundant and ended as there is no need for fear of unemployment if you’re making $48,000 due to the above two policies. Consequently their actual take home pay will be considerably more than now. And actually, as the money system is potentially directly distributive and with the dividend policy and other inflation ending policies and regulations in place taxes for social security will also be redundant and the need for income taxes would largely disappear as well. So what you earned could virtually become what you took home as pay.

Hence, even though a new paradigm benefits everyone there will inevitably be those who prefer the dominance they had before the new paradigm and also some who will ethically taint themselves joining with those trying to regress from the new paradigm.

The thing to do is immediately recognize such attempts to retreat from progress and craft policies and regulations aligned with the new paradigm and terminatedly end them. Eventually the obvious benefits of the new paradigm will be recognized and such actions will diminish.

In fact those who mysteriously prefer full spectrum dominance as opposed to individual, commercial and systemic freedom will end up benefiting the most because the most trapped and enslaved condition an individual can be in is the condition of being ethically compromised.

Hence we have most people and most economists unaware that the old/current monetary paradigm is the key problem, and even fewer of these have any idea of what the new paradigm might be.

Hence virtually all thinking and reformist policy suggestions are reduced to “epicycles” that haplessly and unresolvingly chip away at the edges or at best at the granitic heart of the problem. In this case the monopolistic, dominating and increasingly inhumane monetary paradigm of Debt Only.

With Wisdomics-Giftonomics I present a new vision of a new monetary paradigm and a new economic paradigm as well. A new paradigm not only changes everything in the area in which it is relevant and applied to, it changes everything deeply. In fact it transforms the entire area it is applied to. This is the nature and the history of genuine paradigm changes.

….and every other personal and economic vice and virtue.

….I’ve discovered and visualized the solution.

If you made everyone relatively independently wealthy with a sufficient universal dividend and not only prevented inflation but integrated price deflation into the economy with a 50% discount at the point of retail sale you’d so stabilize the consumer economy that no one used to the frantic, austere, torn three ways from the middle mess we’ve endured for ages would recognize. And if you ended private Finance’s ability to create credit/money by making it just another retail enterprise and gave that responsibility to a central monetary authority with the above specifically mandated policies and used government to tax economic vices and mortal sins like rentiering, leveraged speculation on stocks and real estate and reward economic virtues, then the entire economy would reach orbital free fall/free flow.

So let us end the monopolistic paradigm of Debt Only, end the tyrannically conflicted muddle of numbers that keeps the abundant productivity we are capable of from flowing to everyone and cut the Gordian Knot that prevents the integration of micro and macro economics…..with Wisdomics-Giftonomics.

The past several years I have posted to Steve Keen’s Debt Watch website, briefly his twitter feed, his youtube channel videos and his Patreon page.  Rarely has he responded to me even though I agree with virtually everything he has said on a theoretical level and suggested at least several times that his work is deserving of a Nobel Prize. For this he has banned me on each of these sites except Patreon and has threatened to do so there as well calling me impulsive and castigating me for multiple posts….which again, he has only replied to maybe 3 times so I have no alternative but to post multiple times. That plus sometimes making a point and succeeding points requires multiple posts. (Shrugs)

The real problem Keen has with me is that he is talking about a new theory while I have learned from his theoretics and leapfrogged both it and philosophy to the level of paradigm perception and its applications.  Keen has often said that economics needs a new philosophy, a reformation and a Copernican paradigm change, but apparently doesn’t care to hear about such from someone coming from those perspectives, not even someone who agrees with his theoretics and is trying to show him how they can be extended and expanded by philosophy and focused and vastly progressed by a paradigm change.

I have learned a lot about economics from Dr. Keen. His de-bunking of neo-liberal economics and DSGE is brilliant. However, he apparently doesn’t have the mindset skills for paradigm perception the possessors of which historically have run afoul of even leading edge theoreticians and pedants. A new paradigm is a new unifying concept and pattern that saturates the old paradigm-pattern and replaces its primacy while resolving the deepest and most longstanding problems festering there. That’s where I come from, and that’s why Keen’s problem with me is the problematic historical phenomenon of the student surpassing the professor.
