Subject: Applied innovative monetary and economic policies all of the present leading reformers say they want to see, but don’t know where, when or how to implement them.

Hi, my name is Steve Hummel. I’ve been a student of all of the monetary and economic reformers and their movements since the great financial crisis in 2008. I affirm virtually all of their insights and have even innovated policies that integrate and fulfill the intentions of their opposing economic theorists. I have written a book about these policies and their very beneficial effects for all economic agents individual and commercial.

I would love to discuss these matters with you. I can be contacted at ataushumme@yahoo.com or by text message (I don’t always pick up if I don’t know who is calling) at 602 769 6832.

Nice tribute and spot on reductionist analysis. Too bad it still ignores and fails to recognize what will accomplish everything you say you want to accomplish, i.e. the end of inevitable debt deflation, making economics and the money system serve humanity instead of Man having to slavishly serve them, awakening to the importance and power of accounting in the money system and last but not least enabling the funding of energy research and the mega-projects necessary to give us our best shot at handling climate change.

And what will accomplish this? Discovering a new operant concept/paradigm and how it can most efficaciously be applied. Too simple for the erudite, too universally beneficial not to be a paradigm change.

I’ve always affirmed your research and conclusions, just tried to point you in the direction of how to actually implement them. Bitching hasn’t been very successful so far. I challenge you to run Minsky on all of the monetary and accounting policies in my book and see if they don’t resolve the deepest problems of macro-economics. I hope you can find additional ways to make Monetary Gifting coupled with accounting resolve problems than the 20 or so ways I’ve so far innovated in my book. My most recent policy even offers private banking “a proposition they cannot resist.”

Give it a shot. Resolving problems is much more gratifying than bitching because nothing ever changes.

An idea itself accomplishes nothing in the temporal universe. Implementing/applying a new operant idea i.e. a new paradigm/pattern/systemic concept however… accomplishes miracles for every individual and commercial economic agent and destroys present orthoxies left and right.

Here’s where, when and how to implement the new monetary paradigm:

1. Everyone participates in retail sale, thus it is the single agent aggregative point in the entire economic process. Its also a universal point of monetary exchange.
2. As retail sale is the terminal ending point of the entire legitimate economic process where production exits the economy and becomes consumption all economic factors, for instance inflation, are terminally summed.
3. Hence a 50% Discount/Rebate monetary policy at retail sale immediately doubles everyone’s purchasing power (a $10 Burger would retail for $5, a $60k Tesla for $30k and a $400k house for $200k), ends inflation forever and also potentially doubles the demand for every enterprise’s goods and services.
4. The point of loan signing is post retail sale and hence is actually outside of the entire economic process, that is, it is , even within the economic process itself, always pre-production or post retail sale.
5. By implementing a 25-50% Gift/Debt Jubilee policy at point of loan signing where for the gift of half the interest on the $200k house the bank agrees to reduce the loan to $100k.

As voters always vote their pocketbooks these are the most winning policies any candidate could possibly advocate for.

Addendum: To assure the above realities recall elections will be set up prior to the election itself and candidates on both sides of the aisle will have to sign in their own blood and on tape that if they do not pass the above policies and the associated policy program AS THEIR FIRST ACT IN CONGRESS, they will face an immediate recall against a candidate that doesn’t lie to win.

Birds sensing the electro-magnetic flux going on continuously around us via the protons in their brians has a direct human spiritual analogy. When Christ said “if you want to enter the kingdom of heaven you must be as little children.” Did he mean we should just ignore all problems. No, what he meant was experience the world around you directly and without abstracting the experience of the moment by being here NOW…exactly like a child who hasn’t learned words and whose consciousness exists completely in the moment. This also why zen buddhist monks gaze at walls. They’re trying to let loose of their abstractions and past moments they are hanging onto the better to experience the present reality. The most important point to this is that directly experiencing the present moment is simultaneously an utterly natural and also the highest ecstatic experience one can have. Its the ultimate integration of opposites, i.e. your inner consciousness and the otherness all around you.

Minsky’s financial instability hypothesis which you Steve Keen advocate/prove is correct and historically has been the deepest reason for empires to invade their neighbors. Couple that with the facts that the monetary paradigm for the creation and distribution of new money is Debt Only and hasn’t changed for the entire course of human civilization, and the ignorant bias that you can’t give money DIRECTLY TO THE INDIVIDUAL unless its debt…and unresolvable austerity is enforced. The new monetary paradigm of GIFTING DIRECTLY TO BOTH THE INDIVIDUAL AND ENTERPRISE strategically implemented at retail sale, the point of loan signing and other efficacious points in the economic process is the solution to the MONOPOLY CONCEPT of Debt Only. Finally, system’s analysis is all well and good and helps isolate THE PROBLEM, but paradigmatic/applied conceptual analysis focuses on THE SOLUTIONS to that problem and leads to not just reform, but to ENTIRE PATTERN CHANGE. Try it, you’ll like it.

Debt IS the problem. Why? Because its a monopoly paradigm concept. The solution? Integrate its conceptually oppositional idea, Monetary Gifting strategically into the economy where it will have universal monetary and economic agent effect like at retail sale and point of loan signing. By the way the cardinal signature of every historical paradigm change is that the new paradigm is always in complete conceptual opposition to the old/present anomalous paradigm. Debt jubilee is a great idea, but its a one off that doesn’t rise to the permanent effect that paradigm change has. So thats why we need CONTINUOUS debt jubilee at point of loan signing.

Spot on critique of climate denying economists. But it will fall on the deaf ears of such until we recognize the deeper problem you previously identified…but failed to resolve, namely the monopoly monetary paradigm of Debt Only that has historically de-stabilized domestic economies.

C’mon Keen look at the conceptual history of all previous paradigm changes. New paradigms are always in complete conceptual opposition to the current/old paradigm. Examples: nomadic hunting and gathering to homesteading, urbanization and agriculture. In other words nomadism vs homesteading and urbanization, and immediate momentary gathering vs seasonal agriculture. Also, geo-centrism vs helio-centrism.

Why bitch for another 50 years while going no where? Instead change the OPERANT APPLIED MONETARY CONCEPT with an idea that insures universal monetary and economic security, integrates traditionally opposed political and economic constituencies (Marx’s revolt of the bourgeoise), that has the correct strategic carrots and sticks to make not opting into the new paradigm’s policies inevitable bankruptcy…all while enabling the kind of mega research and project funding that is the rational and irresistible path toward confronting climate change. Consult the movie When World’s Collide for the model for mega-projects and Sun Tzu for your terminal cynicism and break out of the almost equally monopoly paradigm of Science Only and incorporate natural philosophical Wisdom of which science is a wholly included set and also enables what historically has always lead to scientific breakthrough.

Keen is brilliant, but he and the rest of even the liberal reformers are still analyzing only on the reductive and systemic level when the conceptual/paradigmatic level is where the real insights and breakthroughs are found.

All of the present theories are Dodo birds when one begins to actually see how the new paradigm concept is strategically applied. Thats what a paradigm is…an APPLIED idea that RESOLVES THE ANOMALIES OF OLD ORTHODOXIES AND IMPLEMENTS NEW BENEFITS. Historically every new paradigm is absurd because the new concept is long acculturated and is always in complete conceptual opposition to the old/current paradigm. Hence it is viewed as illogical. Example: the change from nomadic hunting and gathering to homesteading, urbanization and agriculture, i.e. nomadism vs homesteading and momentary gathering vs agriculture.

All present orthodoxies and even the cutting edge reforms of Keen etc. are erudite duncery compared to paradigmatic analysis. If we didn’t open ourselves up to such analysis we’d still be wandering hunters and gatherers.

By whatever means and purpose necessary. This enables the petroleum industry to have its economic interests integrated with ecologically sane pursuits without further harm to the planet. If its launching a giant car into high earth orbit or powering everything we launch with internal combustion…why not? Integrating the self interests of opposing economic and political agents is the road to real progress and change.

Raise the petroleum from the ground, launch it into space to refine it, and even if its not possible or desirable to power what is in orbit then just store it there or even just spew it into the cosmos where its negative effects on life are nil. At any rate the petroleum industry profits and the ecology benefits.

To paraphrase Victor Hugo, If there is one thing more powerful than Private Finance’s ability to provide or not provide every individual and every legitimate enterprise the life’s blood of commerce AKA new money, it is a new applied dynamic idea AKA a new paradigm that is broadly and effectively communicated.

Paradigm changes are the most progressive phenomena in human history and everything adapts to them, not the other way around. They destroy worn out orthodoxies while resolving the “unresolvable”. They are far greater than mere reforms which are incomplete integrations.

Like Wisdom insights new paradigms are deep simplicities and strategically applied truths and significances that change the nature of entire systems, bodies of knowledge and areas of human endeavor.

Wisdom is the process and result of the integration of opposites. When you can take the highest natural philosophical concept humanity has ever conceived and experienced and integrate it into the most powerful and effective temporal universe system, that is, the economy and the money system via the most reality anchoring discipline man has ever created, that is, accounting…you know you’re onto something.

If you’d like to be the first politician to see how the new monetary and economic paradigm greatly benefits everyone, replete with rebuttals to every objection or critique I’ve heard for the last 7 years on the internet, and that accomplishes what all of the leading progressive researchers and reformers say they want to see happen please contact me at ataushumme@yahoo.com or message me at 602 769 6832.

First of all all new money is created by accounting entries. Secondly, currently it is virtually all created ONLY AS DEBT and As In ONLY THE OBLIGATION TO REPAY. That makes it a monopoly concept. All monopolies, particularly monetary and economic monopolies, are problematic because they are about domination and control…unless and until that monopoly is broken up by policies and personal actions that express and implement the highest and most ethical experience and concept humanity has ever conceived, namely grace as in love in action…and as policies are the actions of systems…systemic policies.

Historically, new paradigms are always in complete conceptual opposition to the current/anomalous paradigm, and the implementation of that new concept changes the temporal and generally the mental realities in the entire pattern under analysis. For instance, there isn’t anything inherently wrong with debt itself and debt will still be a reality in the new paradigm, but with the policies of the new monetary paradigm, the creation and distribution of new money won’t always have to be a debt…because Monetary Gifting which is in complete conceptual opposition to the monopoly paradigm of DEBT ONLY…will also be strategically integrated into the economy and money system in ways that will greatly benefit all agents individual and commercial.

There are paradigm changes and there are mega-paradigm changes. The new monetary and economic paradigm is probably only the third mega-paradigm in the history of the human species. A mega-paradigm is one that is immediately, universally and continuously beneficial, has “spill over” benefical effects in systems, bodies of knowledge and areas of human endeavor outside of the primary area under analysis, in this case the economy and the money system.

(Examples and how the new monetary paradigm would fit such definition)

Social/Psychological) “Imagine the potential benefits of making going to the store and buying something/anything an opportunity to experience gratitude instead of it being an onerous and resentful one because inflation is continuously eroding your ability to purchase? How about hope and confidence in the future because of individual guaranteed monetary and economic security. How about the satisfaction brought about by both cutting taxes and eliminating inflation at the same time.

Wouldn’t all of these be nice?

(Political) Imagine how nice it would be if we could integrate our politics so that it created agreement instead of almost complete conflict, concern for what benefitted every constituency instead of what was beneficial almost exclusively for personal and partisan power.”

(Ecological) Ending inflation forever will enable us to fund the mega-projects necessary to re-build our infrastructure and also to effectively confront climate change.

Grace/Love in action/policy is the most evolutionary concept in the cosmos.

(Why) The temporal and mental effects of every historical paradigm change have always been the various and mental aspects of the natural philosophical concept of grace and grace as in love in action is both the superlative spiritual concept and experience and the consciousness raising phenomenon humans can have.
