Mexico and central american countries adopt the policies of Wisdomics-Gracenomics thus creating abundant and stabily free flowing economies for all and then their citizens will be happy to live in them.

There are so many advantages to a non-profit publicly administered banking and payment system paired with a central bank and the monetary gifting policies of Wisdomics-Gracenomics: The New Monetary Paradigm and Its Policies that its laughable that we don’t adopt such a system with post haste. But then its a lttle hard to stand up on your own hind legs after being forced on all fours for the entire history of human civilization by the present monetary paradigm….unless you just do the simple math on its three primary policies…and then it sells itself. Despite cynicism all a new paradigm needs to succeed is a platform.
“Pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will.” In other words, see the world as it really is, warts and all, but still forge ahead with courage, tenacity, persistence, acceptance. The will can overcome many challenges if hope remains alive.” Antonio Gramscii
Outline For Editor Interview
Use paradigm graph to show difference between my analysis and other economic reforms
Mention that anytime they have a creeping inflationary orthodoxy to just do the math of the 50% Discount/Rebate policy
Mention how the money creation technique is the same as the banks, i.e. equal accounting debits and credits summing to zero
Mention that Wisdomics-Gracenomics enables all of the goals of leading reforms plus much, much more.
Mention integration of self interests of traditionally opposed economic and political constituences
Mention that new paradigms sell themselves because of their universal benefits, political, economic and social integrativeness and that all they really need is a platform
Rebutt cynicism with Sun Tsu’s observation and use quote: What we need is pessmism of the mind, optimism of the will.
Rebutt over consumption critique, point is universal economic security and freedom, not over consumption and mention sliding scale reduction to retail discount by income level and required investment of gifted money policy.
Signatures of historical paradigm changes and how Monetary Gifting accomplishes all of them
Mention concept of the mega-paradigm change and its history
Ask them to imagine the benefits of an economy that evokes continual gratitude.
Why What I Have Done Is So Significant
I’ve consciously identified the specific new monetary, financial and economic paradigm concept. I’ve also gone in three directions with it. I’ve found the most efficacious places, times and ways to apply the new concept. I’ve also identified the mental discipline for identifying new paradigms (the integrative mental impulse AKA Wisdom) as well as the concept behind every historical paradigm change (the natural philosophical concept of grace). Finally, I’ve identified the new concept of the mega-paradigm change and shown how the new monetary, financial and economic paradigm fulfills all of the signatures of a mega-paradigm change, of which there has probably only been two in the entire history of the human species.
All of the other leading reformers have accurately surrounded the area the new paradigm resides in, but not the specific concept and hence not the best ways to apply it. In other words they’re stuck in identifying the separate problems of the current anomalous paradigm, not the resolution thereof. Further, they’re stuck in the current reductionistic paradigm of Science Only as the sole means of intellectual inquiry that prevents them from recognizing the importance and problem solving superlative mental discipline of Wisdom, and within which science is a wholly contained set. As I like to say science is wonderful, necessary and delicious, and it exists entirely within the digestive tract of Wisdom. Wisdom/paradigmatic/dynamic concept level of analysis are basically the same discipline because they are both the means of deciphering and applying deep simplicities.
The Real Point of The 50% Discount/Rebate, Universal Dividend and Debt Jubilee Policies…
…is freedom, security and prudence all of which are aspects of the natural philosophical concept of grace. A doubling of demand does not ipso facto result in a doubling of consumption and economic throughput because not everyone is going to eat twice as much as they did before or buy twice as many pairs of shoes and underwear, but every economic agent commercial and individual will have much more economic and financial security and freedom be able to balance their lives more easily and balance is the character of prudence. Finally, the sliding scale percentage of required investment of gifted money is still a gift and yet mitigates immediate consumption and channels money toward constructive purposes and future security.
All That A New Paradigm Requires Is…
…people with a modicum of hope, a willingness to embrace a vision and a platform to communicate its benefits. The New paradigm sells itself to all who aren’t terminally cynical, terminally acculturated to the present paradigm or are benefiting greatly from the present paradigm.
Can you muster a little hope and a little ability to look? Then lets change the world.
Posted To Medium Regarding the Thinking on The Three City Concept
Excellent thinking. Thirdness greater oneness of apparent dualisms is a major signature of Wisdom whose pinnacle concept is the natural philosophical concept of grace (in the west, it of course is other words which point at the same experience in the east and middle east). Grace is nothing more and certainly nothing less than love in action, that is loving/graciousness. Grace is the most pregnant concept/experience that humanity has ever conceived/acted with. Why is this? Because a major aspect of grace is thorough/complete integration, so its the inclusive (wholism), discriminating (scientific) and purifying (ethical) integration of a duality that results in a thirdnesss greater oneness of…everything and its opposite, i.e. a duality. And as the world and you are seeming opposites and everything in existence from a dualistic stand point is (unfortunately) considered reality…so is grace, samadhi, tawhid, nirvana its thirdness greater oneness resolution.
Duality is apparency, thirdness greater oneness is reality…and via the cultivation of grace, the ultimate goal of life and living.
I Stand On The Shoulders of Giants…In Order To “Up My Game” To Operant Applied Concept/Paradigmatic Analysis
I’ve studied all of Steve Keen, Michael Hudson, MMT and Ellen Brown and they all are excellent and accurate analysts. They are all system’s analysts which is a very good way to analyze a system’s problems, and they’ve got the core area of the economic, monetary and financial problem completely surrounded. As Steve Keen has said: “The problem with neo-classical macro-economics is that they ignore money, debt and banks.”
But what we desparately need is what R. Buckminster Fuller referred to as system’s philosophers, that is conceptual analysis of the system and its single operant applied concept also known as the present paradigm in order to better discern the new paradigm. And that, as far as I can see, is what I alone have done.
Paradigms are single concepts like helio-centrism as opposed to geo-centrism that define, describe and enforce the realities, including the seeming unresolvable problems, of the present anomalous pattern under analysis.
So the above systems analyst’s suggested reforms all have to do with “money, debt and banks”, but thats just the core problem. So what is the core applied concept/paradigm in those areas that resolves those problems and changes the character of the entire pattern?
The present monetary paradigm for the creation and distribution of new money is Debt Only which means you can only create and distribute new money as Debt as in Burden to Repay Only. Importantly, the words Only designates the paradigm as monopolistic. History tells us that all monopolies are problematic, and Lord Acton’s dictum that “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely” succinctly describes that truth very accurately.
The new paradigm concept doesn’t end debt altogether, rather it ends its monopolistic nature, that is it removes the word Only from it, and that enlightens us to the new paradigm concept itself which is Direct and Reciprocal Monetary Gifting, Monetary Gifting for short.
Finding the best ways, places and times in the economic process to implement the new paradigm and its policies is what I outline in my book.

You want an upward sloping demand curve no matter whether supply is up or down? Implement a 50% Discount/Rebate policy at retail sale. Instead of a representitive agent we need a monetary policy at the single universally participated in and hence aggregative point in the entire economic process. Yeah, yeah, yeah you’ll need some effective regulations, incentives and disincentives (Read “propositions they cannot refuse”) to corrale commercial agents into cooperating in the new paradigm, many of which are in my book, but that’s just life in the human world that isn’t entirely rational or ethical.
Bond markets? End the vast majority of them, because most financializations are simply ways for the private banks to sustain their present dominance, by consolidating them into Eco-bonds paying 5-6%
Private banks? Huge profit sucking parasites when we need a central bank and a non-profit publicly administered banking system firmly guided by the new paradigm concept (Monetary Gifting) which is an aspect of the natural philosophical concept behind every historical paradigm change, namely the integrative, unitary and always beneficial concept variously known in the world’s wisdom traditions as samadhi, tawhid, nirvana and grace. Remember when you throw out the bath water of the pre-scientific orthodoxies of religions…just don’t throw out the wisdom/enlightened psychology they all point at as well.
One of the Biggest Problems With Implementing A New Paradigm Is…
It tends to end or at least endanger the purposes and income streams of the various reformists, because even though they’re research has been excellent and accurate, it only points at various aspects of the overall problem…which is the need for an entire pattern SOLUTION AKA a new paradigm. In other words its a failure/refusal to see, to focus on and affirm a thorough integration which is the mental and temporal process that takes place when one recognizes a new paradigm, and the best ways to implement it.
MMTers, Steve Keen, Michael Hudson, Ellen Brown…I love ya all. But lets get together for the paradigm change and the better survival of everyone and everything by “upping our game” to paradigmatic analysis and hence the integration of all of your very correct researches.
