Excellent book. Nice to see you writing about paradigms, however pardigms are OPERANT as in most relevant and key concepts that applied, change the nature of entire patterns by resolving that pattern’s anomalies. Anything less than a paradigm change is just a reform.

Thermo-dynamics are true on this planet. Thats why we need to make the paradigm change from geo-production and resource discovery to cosmic where in a kind of reflective Copernican cosmological paradigm change its present negative planetary effects become irrelevant.

Also nice to see you embracing price controls. Just keep looking at the 50% Discount/Rebate policy at retail sale and 50% Gift of interest to the banks/50% reduction of loan balance to the consumer at point of loan signing until you see them as the remedies for inflation, thus resistance to fiscal deficits and a way to integrate continual debt jubilee into the economic process. You’re great at calculus so I know you can do the simple math.

Understanding how money is created by banks and governments is enlightening, but there is a cosmically huge difference between understanding that and finding a way to make that insight dramatically serve everyone while resolving Macro-economics’ major problems including getting present monetary policy out of the way so we can fund the mega-projects necessary to handle climate change.

Why not double everyone’s purchasing power and macro-economically implement beneficial price and asset deflation at the same time with a 50% discount to everyone at retail sale all of which is rebated back to the merchant with accounting debits and credits so they are made whole on their price? That might actually cause apoplexy to conservative and libertarian pundits. That way we won’t have to wait for them to go away “one funeral at a time”.

Monetary Gifts are their own reserves so no need to issue bonds to provide liquidity for the banks…because you’ve provided it directly to the individual at retail sale. Yes, provide them with bonds when the banks make loans, no harm, no fuss. The FED/Treasury are the handmaiden of the banks even though they are already dominant and the problematic area of the economy. We should by pass them as much as possible.

One of the biggest problems with economics and economic theory is its abstraction and indirectness of effect. Hence a new monetary paradigm of Direct and Reciprocal Monetary Gifting eludes them. Paradox, apparent logical absurdity and complete conceptual opposition to present orthodoxy have always been signatures of historical paradigm changes.

Another example of missing the obvious via abstraction and failing to look directly is that retail sale has been going on a billion times a day for centuries if not millenia right under our noses and yet no one ever saw the efficacy of utilizing accounting operations that sum to zero to monetarily resolve the civilization long trend of debt de-stabilizing economies, as well as other economic problem resolution. Except me, of course.

Truth Is 1, 2…

…and 3…in 1. In other words a trinity/unity/oneness of an integrated duality.

Its what I call The Cosmic Code.

Why De-Growth Is Not The Only and Most Important Answer

Because paradox and conceptual opposition have always been signatures of paradigm changes, and de-growth is only a reform while paradigm changes transform the key realities of entire systems/bodies of knowledge and areas of human endeavor.

This doesn’t mean that we need to continue to worship and pursue unlimited growth, but there are ways to mitigate consumption and resource usage while at the same time utilizing the new monetary paradigm of Gifting in intelligent and strategic ways that will enable us to change the deepest problem facing the ecology, and that is the paradigm of geo-production and resource discovery ONLY to cosmic-production and resource discovery.

New Policy: For Nate Hagens’ “1500”

They have a choice of investing in tax deductible eco-bonds at 5-6% (or other investments that will direct the super-organism toward sanity, that will fund the mega-projects necessary to confront the climate and energy crises, and a personal and corporate tax rate of 10%.

Or they can invest in non-sanity investments and pay a personal tax rate of 90% and corporate rate of 50%+.

I Am The Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler and Spiritual Philosopher of The New Monetary Paradigm

Why? Because like Copernicus I came up with the exact new concept of Monetary Gifting.

Like Galileo, I discovered by actually and directly looking at a temporal universe reality point that enabled the new concept to be most efficaciously implemented which specifically was retail sale.

And like Kepler I consciously discovered the efficacious APPLIED tool by which the new concept could be implemented throughout the entire economic process and so solves the deepest problems of the current/old paradigm and even shores up anomalies in even the new concept, that being Accounting/Double Entry Bookkeeping.

Finally, I recognized that the natural philosophical concept of grace and its aspects was the concept and major effects behind every historical paradigm change, and integrated economics and spirituality by enabling us to make economics/commerce a universally participated in, everyday, continuous infrastructure for the individual self actualization of grace as in gratitude for a Gift. In other words, paradoxically, to transform economics from a mostly onerous experience into the greatest way to evoke love and thankfulness since meditation and prayer.

Maybe, Just Maybe:

The aliens/future humans are here to hopefully discover/re-discover/evoke a lost or even a remembered way to integrate spirituality and economics that they either failed to develope or want to hasten along with our/their advanced technology…like the way that Wisdomics-Gracenomics both resolves our deepest economic problems and simultaneously makes participating in the economy a universally participated in, daily and continuous infrastructure via grace as in monetary gifting…and thus the greatest means of self actualizing gratitude since meditation and prayer.

New Policy:

New Policy: If A Component of Your Corporation’s Inflated Prices Are Goughing or A Raise In Your Executive Salary…you will not get your discount percentage indexed to any yearly inflation and the percentage of your inflated prices that such raises cause will be deducted from the 50% discount.

If a 100% increase in your personal purchasing power isn’t enough for you, its more a personal problem than a valid critique of the new paradigm.

Brush Past Your Cynicism…and Do The Simple Math!

those two mottos and politically “people vote their pocketbooks”, so do business people, is integrative of traditionally opposed socio-economic and political constituencies. Deepest, longest problems solved, ecologically doable and actually enables what we need to do to confront climate change namely run the fiscal deficits and private investments necessarry to confront climate change, mentally grasp the power of hope, faith as in confidence and grace as in doing the right and good thing.
