The Economic system is entropic as per costs/prices and because of monopolistic concern with profit, power and control the dominant private Financial/Banking system is unwilling to remedy that fact. And even if these two systems were merely equilibrated numerically they would not bring lasting solution as innovation and AI are ascendant disruptive forces…..and also, as the productive system is entirely embedded in the temporal universe, it requires a dynamic thrust/vector in the direction of non-entropy in order for it to truly balance and equilibrate through Time. That is why the Dividend needs to be relatively abundant (at or near a middle class level of income), the Discount mechanism needs to be price deflationary and the Banking and Financial systems need to become trinitarian with its ultimate control inverted back from private to public and guided by the ethical and sensitive concept of Grace. Otherwise the Banks and their product Debt will continue to rule. Gifting must become the dominant paradigm and zeitgeist so that there will be less and less borrowing, more and more Gifting and hence more and more individual freedom, systemic free flowingness and proactive, conscious progress toward money becoming a ticket for the distribution of production.

Why? Because it takes the conceptual thread that underlies each of them and integrates it and them into a unified whole.

Problems:   A + B, Private Banking and Its Financial Monopoly, and an Ideology of Power and Control Versus Freedom.

The Answer:   The concept of Grace contemplated in all of its aspects and wisely applied to every human system.

This ratio is the flow within the general flow of money in the economy/costing-pricing system which is the underlying, moment to moment source of friction within the economy itself and operative reason for “the business cycle”.

The will to power and the intention to dominate and control is the inverse of the gracious will to freedom for the individual and the graceful freeflowingness of the system. Contemplating Grace-graciousness is the encompassing and transformative antidote to the trap of domination on both the individual and systemic levels.

Not that there is not capital to create and accumulate, that has a long way to go yet, but as an over riding and rigid philosophy or ideology….it has been over for some time now. Do I “beat my drum” for socialism? No, that is equally a dogma and religion. I advocate the integration of the truths, workabilities and applicabilities of both capitalism and socialism….and also of the highest ethical intentions of both as well.

Now, do I “beat my drum” for the economic philosophy of social democracy? Again no. The policy mechanism of RE-distribution is not a solution to the money system because it is not additive when both additional individual income and additional systemic liquidity are required to solve and evolve that system.  I advocate Distributism. Distributism reflects Grace as in Gifting, Abundance/Addition and Flow. It also reflects Grace as in Balance as in enoughness/prudence/satisfaction instead of satiation, excess and wastefulness. Yes, Wisdomics/Gracenomics is also the route toward ecological sanity.

A strict numerical/monetary equilibrium is nothing more than a dogma parading itself as Truth. The point of equilibrium is individual freedom and systemic free flowingness NOT an obsession over control and/or over numbers themselves. Debits and credits are fine so long as individual incomes create and maintain true freedom and systemic flow. Grace/gracefulness/graciousness is far above logic and mere accounting, and it is even above Love because Grace is not a static state, but rather the dynamism of Love…in action, Love in the midst of, and throughout Life and Living. And economics and money systems ought best to reflect as many of the aspects of Grace as possible including bothness, andness, oneness, abundance, flow, discernment, foresight, proactive action, firm temporal presence, sovereignty and peacefulness.

Contemplate Grace in all of its aspects and you will both soar and flow. Apply its aspects in policies that perfectly reflect it, to each of our systems, ….and the world will do the same.

That’s our basic problem. That and the fact that when you lose touch with Wisdom you also lose touch with its pinnacle concept and experience. This is not religion….it’s Wisdom. Wisdom is the kernel of Truth behind the faith in dogmas of whatever variety. Take those kernels from whatever subject, discipline, theory or lesser philosophy, then integrate them, which is the actual process of Wisdom itself as well as the means of discovering and attaining/maintaining it, and then keep on integrating until a third state or condition actually results that is a much more unified whole. That state/condition is what has traditionally been known as a state of Grace which IS the pinnacle concept/experience of Wisdom.  Wisdom and its pinnacle  is “where it’s at” and what is needed. The world cries out for Wisdom….let us discern it and apply it.

Beg to disagree blocke. Every major wisdom tradition east and west points at the same basic ethical agreements. Non-major wisdom” traditions” have occasionally suggested something other than this, but end up failing…because they are…incorrect. Of course every wisdom tradition has been twisted and violated by those concerned more with power and control than freedom. But what else is new.
