That I can see, all present theories expressed here fall within the current monetary, financial and economic paradigm of Debt Only and so keep its orthodoxies, complexities and increasingly destabilizing problems in effect.

When the concept of the new paradigm, Direct and Reciprocal Monetary Gifting, is recognized and strategically implemented at the point of retail sale and private profit making finance is additionally recognized as a parasitic and illegitimate business model being both necessary pre-production and increasingly necessary post retail sale….all of the problems of the old paradigm precipitate out, individual and systemic realities are inverted and transformed and every agent benefits.

The new paradigm is elegant and simple but not simplistic because it goes to the heart of our monetary and economic problems, and every paradigm change is absurd for most right up until it’s recognized as the new great truth and resolving methodology. Paradigm perception is the destroyer of theories and 99% of the battle won. It’s time to progressively seize upon it.

…achieves paradigm change in economics and money systems. This one realization is all it will take to change everything further for the better.

It is the perfect integration of the best aspects of the agendas of both the left (economic democracy) and the right (prosperity for all agents commercial and individual).

It resolves the two deepest and most chronic problems of modern economies, inflation and scarcity of aggregate individual incomes.

It breaks up the glaringly contradictory, naive,  problematic and ultimately disintegrative monopoly paradigm of private finance for the vehicle and form of money creation known as Debt Only.

It’s elegant and simple but not simplistic because it goes to the heart of our monetary and economic problems.

It’s the answer.

Add to it the policy of a monthly universal dividend and the structural change of a publicly administered national banking system and a central bank/monetary authority mandated to distribute the monies of the dividend and discount/rebate policies and you’ll have vouch safed the future stability of the economy as AI increasingly destroys aggregate demand and enabled functional finance for urgently needed research and innovation on how to produce more with less actual resources and to rapidly off planet production in order to rid ourselves of its wasted energy that is becoming so problematic.

Regulate the economy further by aligning such with the ultimate integrative, underlying and resolving concept behind the new paradigm itself, that is the natural philosophical concept of grace/graciousness, and we’ll have the best integration of the ideal and the pragmatic also known as Wisdom.

Better acculturate self chosen positive and constructive human purpose in addition to employment with a cooperative effort between the helping professions, the clergy, the educational system and the government and you’ll be able to create the first leisure society and turn the page of history from debilitating stress, conflict and unnecessary burden to the creative joys of individual freedom, cooperation and systemic free flowingness.

Paradigm change. It’s sitting there waiting for us all to recognize and progressively seize upon.

One of the beauties of a paradigm change is that it is minimally destructive of present structures while transformative of them at the same time.  The only structures that are destroyed are those that presently actively dominate and would impede the beneficial effects of the new paradigm. In this sense such destruction is completely ethically justifiable and in fact necessary for the full beneficial accomplishment of the paradigm change.

Economic theory requires a new philosophy that wisely guides policy that will accomplish a new paradigm.

The pinnacle concept of all of humanity’s wisdom traditions is grace or another word for same, and the various aspects of that natural philosophical concept reflectively and pragmatically applied to the economy as policy is exactly the path to the new paradigm.

Grace is both a universally applicable internal/mental concept, and as scientific and empirically relevant and reflective policy, a universal solvent for all problems in temporal universe systems as well. Thus Wisdomics-Gracenomics: The New Economic Philosophy and Its Paradigm Changing Policies.

The parasite that private finance and its monopolistic paradigm of Debt Only has become is the problem….not profit making systems or the commercial agents within it, and the best possible way to keep both the system and its commercial agents humane is to imbue, guide and sovereignly lead them with policies that express and implement the pinnacle wisdom concept of grace as in love in action.

….and the new paradigm policies of a universal dividend and a 50% discount/rebate at the point of final retail sale accomplish the first, beneficially enable the second and third so are the unitary way to resolve all three problems.

On a scale of self knowledge/Self awareness, right below the highest level, that is knowingness itself, is not knowingness-unknowingness. A child is actually born into a very high level of self awareness and as they navigate the temporal universe, about which they are in a complete state of not knowingness, they must cycle back through lower levels of self awareness and hence become habituated to them.

The biggest puzzle and challenge of Life is finding their way back…to themselves. So the biblical self awareness truth: “Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven” is spot on.

Science is our best tool for exploring and navigating the temporal universe, Wisdom is the tool for navigating consciousness and the integration of both disciplines is the route to grace as in a loving flow of conscious action.

As above, so below. The aspects of grace directly, reciprocally and strategically applied as monetary policy at scientifically significant points in time and the economic/productive process (retail sale) and directly to the most basic agent in the economy (the universal dividend to the individual) is the best integration of science and wisdom and will result in the expression and experience of the major aspects of grace as in abundance and free flowingness.

Wisdomics-Gracenomics, the way out of the present onerous and balky paradigm, the way home to the new freeing and free flowing one.

Kuhn correctly observed the slow process of paradigm change. My postulate is that what is required to greatly speed up paradigm change is Wisdom and its process of integrating the truths, workabilities and applicabilities of opposite perspectives and guided by the natural philosophical concept of grace which is just the western word hung on the goal and result of all of the world’s wisdom traditions which is higher self awareness. Science of course is good and necessary as a tool for discovering empirical truth and falsehood, but as its process is logic and one of the primary signatures of paradigm changes is the seeming illogic of conceptual opposition to the prevailing paradigm it stumbles, halts and generally its process does not lead to where we want to go. All the more reason to consult the process wisdom and ultimately its goal of a thirdness greater oneness.

Wisdom tradition techniques are replete with ways of eliciting such an experience. For instance a zen master giving a novitiate the classic koan question of “What is the sound of one hand clapping?’ isn’t actually intended to be answered logically or rationally, but rather to have the novitiate puzzle over it trying to come up with a logical/rational answer until he/she either becomes so internalized that they experience their own self awareness much more intensely than normal and so experience satori, or to puzzle over it with such frustration that much like a form of ab-reaction therapy thoughts, emotions and even bodily somatics become so intense that they let go of the attempt to rationally resolve the koan and come more intensely into the present moment…which of course is the only place and time that satori which IS a new experience CAN be experienced by one’s self awareness/consciousness.

As the human part of a genuine new paradigm is a personal NEW AWARENESS of a concept that changes an old temporal and/or mental pattern and creates a new one….it would seem that Wisdom is precisely the tool we need to….more rapidly reach that goal.

This is not to say that there are never conspiracies, there are, but grand conspiracies almost never actually exist because they are unnecessary due to the powerful unconscious effects of paradigms on both idividuals and systems.

The primary signature of paradigms current and new is unconsciousness of them. Current paradigms exist and draw their primary strength and endurance from this fact. For instance, as Steve Keen has shown the current reigning paradigm of macro-economics DSGE basically ignored money, debts and banks and yet the primary economic factor (money/credit, the only form and vehicle for its distribution (Debt/Loans) and the single business model of private banking and its ultimate backer The Fed have monopolistic control of these factors. 

How stupid and naive is this? Naive to the point of unconsciousness that’s how stupid and naive it is. And this unconsciousness was possessed by Nobel Prize winners in economics!!!

Now, even if one discovers that the essentials of the economic problem are being ignored, if they lack a knowledge of the signatures of imminent paradigm change and of actual new paradigm changes and their temporal universe and historical effects, then they can still walk around having no idea of the new paradigm. In fact, as many heterodox economists are calling for paradigm change in economics, they can even suggest palliative reforms that mirror the concept of that new paradigm…but have absolutely no idea of either the singular concept that is the paradigm or the policies that will fit seamlessly within most of the structures so as to implement its powerful transformative effects. That demonstrates the power of both consciousness and unconsciousness, and the incredible importance of cultivating paradigm perception.

Unconsciousness of both current and new paradigms

Acceptance of old paradigm and its powerful structures as legitimate/necessary and ending of the dominance of the most powerful structural factor in old paradigm

Hardening of logic of old paradigm/hence seeming illogicality of new paradigm

Confusion/seeming unworkability of everything

Conceptual Opposition

Inversion/transformation of current realities

Increased abundance of primary factors in area/body of knowledge that the new paradigm applies to

Increased creativity, especially in area/body of knowledge that the new paradigm applies to

New tool discovery/re-discovery of/new insights from old tool

The costs of capital goods (the means of production and their maintenance) are already factored into consumer goods by virtue of the cost accounting convention that all costs must go into price. Hence they are factored fully at the point of final retail sale into each and all consumer goods, and that is one of the reasons why the discount/rebate policy is so effective.
