Meditation and prayer are strictly internal disciplines. Nothing wrong with that per se of course, but what if we created an everyday universally participated in activity IN THE TEMPORAL UNIVERSE that was an invitation to and evokative of graciousness as in gratitude???
That first of its kind phenomenal benefit is accomplished with a 50% Discount/Rebate policy at retail sale.
Creative destruction and all of that…for Finance, but not for every other business model.
As the identifier of the new monetary paradigm, its integrative benefits and its innovative policy program, the coiner and describer of the new term of the Mega-Paradigm Change, the discoverer of the deep fact that the benefits of every historical paradigm change have always been an aspect or aspects of the natural philosophical concept of grace, and particularly as the first person to recognize the serendipitous nature of the new monetary paradigm, namely that it is the first solely temporal universe anchored action and opportunity to self actualize gratitude since the mental only practices of meditation and prayer…I submit the above title.
And I do so in all humility because I realize that I have feet of clay and recognize that I have made many errant, distracted and stupid decisions in my life exactly like everyone else, but transforming the errant, problematic and unstable disciplines of economics and the money system into stabily abundant, ecologically aligned and spiritually beneficial systems and practices merits the designation.
So I stand by it.
You’re quite right that neither the left nor the right think and/or are offering any kind of actual change in economics. And yes there is plenty of delusion around in economic theory, but what is the solution? Its a true Hegelian synthesis/thirdness greater oneness of the problematic duality you point at of capitalism vs socialism. And you guessed it, this thirdness greater oneness is accomplished by discovering and implementing the thing no one is talking about…the new monetary paradigm concept of Direct and Reciprocal Monetary Gifting with its entire policy program but most importantly, because it is the very expression of the new paradigm, a 50% Discount/Rebate policy at retail sale. That policy must be broadcast to the masses and demonstrated to them until until it becomes “an idea whose time has come”.
And who is going to say they don’t want to be able to buy $100 worth of groceries for $50, or a $60k EV for $30k at retail and then when they finance that $30k they only have to pay 50% of the monthly auto payment (because the auto payment is the retail point of an auto loan) which means they get a $60k EV for a payment of the equivalent of a $15k loan. Same applies for a mortgage where the home buyer sends you to finance a $500k house for only $250k because the government or central bank is sending them $250k as the retail sale rebate and then you go to finance which creates the other $250k and sends it to the home builder and yet the government/central bank pays half your mortgage payment so you’re getting a $500k house for the equivalent payment of $125k.
Again, who is going to not like this? No one. Who is going to demand this? Everyone. Even the banks can like it because the market for $500k houses that they get full $250k interest on just quadrupled because the consumer only has to pay half the monthly payment.
Plenty of other policies in the entire new paradigm program that stabilizes the beneficial deflation which slam dunks any gaming, cheating and ignoring of the new rules, that
mitigates over consumption by creating a huge investment incentive in eco-energy
R & D and infrastructure bonds at 5-6% with a sliding scale required “tax” of gifted income, etc. etc.
And thats why the policy suggestion in my book of a sliding scale “tax” of gifted income required to be invested in 5-6% Eco-Energy R & D & Infrastructure bonds is so important.
And of course the signatures of historical paradigm changes continue to apply which means that the present paradigm of energy/entropy will be in complete conceptual opposition to the new paradigm of zero point/virtually infinite energy.
I’m liberal to the core because several of the aspects of liberalism are tolerance and understanding and these are also aspects of the NATURAL philosophical concept of grace as in love in action. Curiously, power is also an aspect of grace but because unity, integration and transformation are also aspects of grace the aspect of grace I’m referring to is REDEEMED/REDEMPTIVE power. Political republicans, particularly the current crop exhibit none of these traits at least in their official capacity and understanding.
So where am I going with this? I’m not trying to give you a sunday school lesson, but rather pointing to how to bring about a new economic and monetary paradigm change that could enable the greatest liberal political coalition since The New Deal. A few prilims:
1) Grace/graciousness has always been the answer to every human and human systemic problem
because its the superlative wisdom insight of love in ACTION, that is its not just a nice idea its also acting as in implementing POLICY in the temporal universe which is where action actually takes place.
2) Historically, the effects of new paradigms have always been aspects of grace. Examples: the paradigm change from the mere animalistic “ethic” of Survival Only to Self Awarenesss and hence the realization that others are self aware and so the birth of the new realization that ethics are real. IOW a new and increased conscious awareness…which is also an aspect of grace. Other examples: The change from nomadic hunting and gathering to homesteading, urbanization and agriculture which resulted in the implementation of the aspects of grace of greater abundance, greater survival and of course the new increased conscious realization of the importance and goodness of these changes. Third example: The Copernican Cosmological paradigm change which was an inversion of temporal universe reality and transformation of mental reality both of which are sapects/signatures of both grace and historical paradigm changes.
3) What is the current monetary paradigm and what is the aspect of grace that will integrate present palliative reforms into a new paradigm? Upwards of 97% of all new money is created by the private banking system as loans every year which means its created as debt ONLY. You don’t go to the bank to receive money in any form but debt in other words. The word ONLY designates this paradigm as a MONOPOLY paradigm. As all new paradigms are in complete conceptual opposition to the current paradigm the opposite concept to Debt Only would be Monetary Gifting. Currently there is also a paradigm of The Agent Paying Full Price ONLY which monopoly is ended by the new paradigm. All monopolies are dominating and consequently by nature unethical. The last monopoly paradigm we dealt with was Salvation Via Roman Catholic Sacraments ONLY, and The Reformation was the correcting result. We require a monetary and economic Reformation, and Monetary Gifting will accomplish it.
4) Again, historically new paradigms are always in complete conceptual opposition to the present paradigm which in a supposedly logical scientific age makes it more difficult to mentally confront and risk embracing illogic even though the clear historical signature of new paradigms is exactly that. Examples: The Reformation: Dominance and manipulation to Religious Tolerance and Democracy. Emergence from Animalistic Narcissistic Survival ONLY to Self Awareness and the Reality of Ethics. Nomadic Tribal Hunting and Gathering to Homesteading, Urbanization and Agriculture…and Debt ONLY and Strategic Integration of Monetary Gifting.
You’ll note that every one of these new paradigms is an aspect or aspects of the natural philosophical concept of grace, and the new monetary paradigm follows that historical trend with Monetary Grace as In Gifting. The realization of this philosophical and temporal universe truth is a GOAT, one of the greatest insights of all time, and can be utilized to focus scientific investigations and hence fast track insights.
5) Now paradigms are APPLIED ideas. IOW new paradigms are both mental/conceptual and temporal universe reality changes which brings us to another signature of historical paradigms which is The Integration of Opposites which is also the intention and the very process of the superlative intellectual discipline also known as Wisdom. This by the way is why I titled my book Wisdomics-Gracenomics.
6) New paradigms are about solutions to the problems in systems, bodies of knowledge or areas of human endeavor…NOT JUST A CORRECT IDENTIFICATION OF THE PROBLEMS in these areas. IOW paradigmatic analysis takes reductive scientific analysis and identifies the key factors that resolve the problems/anomalies of the current paradigm. This is why I say: “Science is good, necessary and delicious, and it exists entirely within the digestive tract of Wisdom.”
The quantity theory of money (QTM) posits a direct, proportional relationship between the money supply and the general price level of goods and services in an economy. In essence, the theory suggests that changes in the money supply lead to proportionate changes in prices, with causality running from money to prices. This implies that excessive growth in the money supply can lead to inflation, and a decrease in the money supply can lead to deflation.
What does being able to get $100 worth of groceries for only $50, a $60k EV for the equivalent $15k and a $500k house for the equivalent of $125k? It means that the additional money created and distributed at retail sale with the Discount/Rebate policy creates DEFLATION… which invalidates The Quantity Theory of Money. Thank you non-Nobel prize committee for Economics.
Economics is complex. Money and money creation is not, and as money and its accumulation is a major priority of capitalist economic systems if you found a way to simultaneously double everyone’s purchasing power and slay the biggest bitch of everyone, namely inflation, with a single policy…you’d deserve a non-Nobel prize for economics. To wit the 50% Discount/Rebate policy at retail sale and the rest of the new monetary paradigm policy program.
Dante was correct in resigning politicians to the seventh level of hell.
The only thing more powerful than money itself…is the new paradigm of Monetary Grace as in Gifting. Why? Because it solves the deepest economic problems of everyone including the very rich, yet it implements barriers to the powers of the wealthy where there were no such barriers before. The new monetary paradigm of Gifting implemented by a policy program including a 50% Discount/Rebate at the point of retail sale will thus become the new “third rail” of politics ending the careers of anyone who opposes it benefits, and creating the greatest coalition for rational and ethical progress probably composed of members of both parties because it integrates both power and graciousness…thus saving politicians from themselves.
There is only freedom in the human universe between known and enforceable barriers because there’s this little thing called ethics. The current framework of free market theoretics is a fetishized misnomer for the actual reality it enables and enforces which is the dominating chaos of the current paradigm for the creation and distribution of new money which is the monopolistic concept of Debt Only. A chaos from which only the private banks and the very wealthy periodically emerge almost unscathed even though their greedily abusive wielding of the power of that paradigm is the source of the chaos itself.
The apparent illogic and conceptual simplicity of paradigm changes may insult the intellectual vanities of the erudite and evoke anxiety for their scientific reputations if they dare to advocate for same, but they can’t deny those two historical signatures.
The “trick” with conceiving and perceiving new paradigms is to utilize the superlative intellectual discipline of Wisdom which is the impulse and process of integrating, synthesizing and finding the applications of conceptual opposites. Science? Its wonderful, necessary and delicious…and it exists entirely within the digestive tract of Wisdom.
Finally, the real key to Wisdom/paradigmatic insights is to understand that the beneficial effects of every historical paradigm change have always been an aspect or aspects of the natural philosophical concept of grace. And why is that? Because a few of the aspects of the concept of grace are
