Because it is a very positive and deep personal experience, because it is probably the most powerful aspect of the experience of grace, because like every other aspect of grace it bounces back at you and because it never gets old. Thus gratitude is the key to opening oneself up to the full experience of grace.
Simple vs Simple
There’s simple as in simplistic, incomplete and ineffectual. Then there’s simple as in basic, elemental and dynamically powerful. New paradigm concepts are of the latter category of simplicity because they are the key anomalie resolving idea and where, when and how to best implement it.
The new monetary paradigm of Gifting fits this description of a deep resolving simplicity to a T.
With The Right Tool and The Right Idea…
…you can literally change the world. The tool of accounting/double entery bookkeeping and the new paradigm concept of Monetary Gifting is the perfect example of this.
A renaissance, a true golden age awaits us with the new monetary paradigm. Let us visualize and create it and never look back.

Me: If an exporter of oranges etc. increases their price they will face a tarrif/rebate policy of 100% of their increased price. In other words they raise their price by $.50/lb, the tarrif covers whatever total increase occurs and is rebated back to the importer so they do not incur additional cost. Acconting/double entry bookkeeping sums all costs to zero increase, and the supply and demand/”free” market fetishism orthodoxies are exposed as the self imposed delusion they have always been.
AT: Did you mean tariff to be applied to an exporter who would increase their price due to higher demand?
Me: Let them raise their price as much as they want, the tarrif/rebate policy will nullify any price increase until the exporter is not competitive and they’ll lose the biggest market in the world. Just result for such anti-social acts. Meanwhile with all of the increased purchasing power the US will be free to re-industrialize in the most technologically advanced and ecologically sane way possible. New applied ideas/paradigms always invalidate old orthodoxies and open up new and better alternatives. Consult their history.

Those are reasonable reforms, but they don’t penetrate to the core of the core problem (finance/money) with the new applied idea/concept, thus they will be gamed and their benefits quickly nulled. Historically, new applied ideas/paradigms permanently change the area(s) they affect…at least until such new concept developes anomalies and the process repeats. Sorry, I do not get palliative reformist thinking when analyzing paradigmatically is the real solution.

Deficits are income to the private sector. The problem is not public “debt” but rather ever increasing private individual and commercial debt.
Solve all of this with a 50% Discount/Rebate at retail sale and a continuous debt jubilee policy at point of loan sighning.

Yes, every “movement” runs into the human proclivity for grasping onto orthodoxy…which sets up a duality to fight over, and that ends up blocking the full
experience/understanding of a thirdness greater oneness which such movement is generally pointing at. Even buddhism, which warns that mental grasping inhibits mental flowing, has fallen prey to the negative effects of our unwillingness/inability to seek the integrative thirdness signature of wisdom instead of the egoistic disease of dualism.
The concept/experience that denotes and is an integrative thirdness greater oneness is the natural philosophical concept of grace. That is grace as in flow/freeflowingness, ethical thirdness as in the rational integrative consideration of morals/duality, freeness as in Gifting, epistomology as in knowingness instead of even true, but mere data/abstraction and gracious/loving policies…as policies are the actions of systems…just to mention a few of the aspects of the most pregnant concept man has ever conceived and experienced.
Drop all of the pre-scientific, parochial and dualistic nonsense that attends the concept of grace in the west apply and apply grace at the most efficaious points in the economic process and we might be able make economics serve us instead of dominate and delude us.

Turning the other cheek is wisdom, good for you.
Imports and exports we may aways have with us, but having a robust manufacturing and generally productive economy guards against potential instabilities and can’t be anything other than virtuous.
Of course integrating a new monetary paradigm of Gifting utilizing accounting operations into the Debt Only present system with 50% reductions of costs at retail sale and of debt levels at the point of loan signing makes the entire system hit on all 30 trillion cylinders, reduces costs for everyone and stops the continual build up of private debt. Or at least that’s what Hyman Minsky channeled to me about 7 years ago. 😉

Makes perfect sense. The only “problem” is how does one best macro-economically/agent aggregatively prevent inflation? To whit, the 50% Retail Discount to consumers and equal Government Rebate back to the merchant granting it to the consumer. The equal debits and credits sum to zero and the result is BENEFICIAL price and asset DEFLATION for both consumers and commercial agents, the end of the banks’ monopoly monetary paradigm for the creation and distribution of new money AKA Debt Only and last but not least the transformation of the economy from an unpleasant to onerous experience into the greatest opportunity to self-actualize gratitude since meditation and prayer.
Thats whats called a mega-paradigm change.

Yes, the present monetary paradigm of Debt Only as in The Burden To Repay is at the core of the core of the problem. Integrate the new paradigm of Direct and Reciprocal Monetary Gifting into the Debt Only System and all of the problems of competition, innovation and the public’s rational self interest become resolvable…and without it we waste another 50+ years and probably resign a couple billion humans and god knows how many species of flora and fauna to extinction.
In my book I reccomend a new government function called The Department of Competition, Innovation, Boycotting and The Public’s Bully Pulpit that would hold weekly news conferences rewarding government and private sector rational actions and pointing the finger at those who try to destabilize the program of the new monetary paradigm and its economic, energy and ecological goals.
The future begins with the new monetary paradigm.
