Thats why I suggest that central banks’ charters be amended to enable them to create and distribute the rebate aspect of a 50% Discount/Rebate policy at both regular consumer retail sale and also at the point of Finance’s retail sale which is one’s monthly mortgage, automobile, insurance or other big ticket item. What are the effects of such policies? Well, that means that EVERY INDIVIDUAL AS IN AGGREGATIVE/MACRO_ECONOMIC EFFECT could get $100 worth of groceries for $50 which transforms chronic erosive inflation into not only painless, but joyous price and asset deflation…and the merchant gets their full price with the rebate that the central bank gives them for the discounts they gave to the consumer…so everyone is happy. Now do the same at the point of Financial retail sale and the $500k house that the consumer goes to Finance the $250k remaining balance after the regular consumer 50% Discount/Rebate has been applied means that the central bank pays the bank 50% of the monthly payment on that $250k loan…so the consumer gets a $500k house for the equivalent payment on a $125k loan.

There are numerous other regulatory policies that can also be applied to stabilize the paradigmatic monetary and economic effects of this single policy in the entire program of what I refer to as Wisdomics-Gracenomics, but the above mathematical and temporal universe effects are staggeringly real, and just as a kicker they also effect continual debt jubilee instead of just a one-off form of same but just lets Finance go right back to dominating everyone with their monopoly paradigm for the creation and distribution of all new money AKA Debt ONLY. And finally, this policy enables us, if we’re smart enough and wise enough, to create the greatest opportunity to self actualize gratitude for a GIFT since meditation and prayer because of a price/discount and money/rebate for both agents at retail sale…and you don’t even have to chant the right words or thank the right deity to receive it, all you have to do is go to the store and buy something. In other words its the very first integration of spirituality and economics/a temporal universe system…EVER.

Systemic analysis? Very good. Conceptual/Paradigmatic analysis? Essential, if you want lasting systemic change instead of merely palliative/temporary/gameable effects. Integrate the two and they can result in the Hegelian trinitarian effect of a thirdness greater oneness of a problematic duality.

[ (thesis x antithesis = synthesis} ]

The biggest thing about the new monetary paradigm of Strategic Gifting actually and serendipitously has nothing whatsoever to do with economics or money, but rather that it would create the very first temporal universe system, which everyone must and does participate in, that would elicit and self actualize gratitude which is a powerful and transformative experience and aspect of the natural philosophical concept of grace.

You want a simplification that creates dramatic change? Make the fruits of the concept of grace your own reality SIMPLY BY PARTICIPATING IN A UNIVERSALLY REQUIRED ACTIVITY LIKE GOING TO THE STORE TO BUY SOMETHING because graciousness is the ultimate wisdom and both wisdom insights and paradigm changes are deep resolving simplicities.

Narrative Of Speech To Students

Please listen up. I’m about to show you how you can reduce your student debt by at least 50% and get $2000 worth of purchasing power every month when you reach 18 years of age for the rest of your life. Ignore any of the nay sayers or terminally orthodox who are simply unconscious of the current way money is created and just as unconscious of how that must change in order to usher in secure monetary abundance for everyone.

So let me demonstrate the two policies that will make what I just said the reality for everyone. Can I have two of you come here and stand next to each other? Okay, You’re the retail merchant and you’re the consumer…and I’m the central bank whose two present mandates are to control inflation and promote employment. So here’s the first policy: a 50+% Discount/Rebate at retail sale. Okay so you Mr. Consumer you go and buy $100 worth of groceries and at check out the merchant gives you a 50% Discount. Then you Mr. Merchant you do what all merchants do when they post to their Sales Account except this is their Sales Discounts Account…they send me, the central bank, that account and I rebate back to the merchant every cent of the discounts they have given their consumers making them whole on their entire price. Its elementary accounting/double entry bookkeeping.

So Mr. Consumer how much did you pay for your $100 worth of groceries? $50 Thats right. And you Mr. Merchant how much money did you get for your $100 worth of merchandise? $100 Thats right.

Now, lets apply this policy with you buying a $60k EV and a $500k house and you being both the merchant and the Bank. Okay you go and agree to buy a $60k EV and the car dealer reduces his price to $30k…and then when you go to Finance you sign a contract to pay for $30k…But wait! What is the retail point of Finance? That’s right its your monthly automobile, insurance, mortgage or other big ticket item’s monthly payment…and the 50% Discount/Rebate policy is implemented there as well, so you pay for 50% of that total amount…and I, the central bank rebate the other 50% of that monthly payment back to the bank. So lets do the demo on those two points of the 50% Discount/Rebate policy. $60k discounted to $30k and merchant receives the other $30k from me, then $30k monthly payment is say $800 but you only pay $400/mo. because I pay the bank $400 every month so you get that $60k EV for the equivalent monthly payment of a $15k loan. And the same thing occurs when you buy a $500k house which is the equivalent monthly payment of a $125k loan. Yipee! Both consumer and merchant are happy and the economy potentially doubes in size so its good all the way around.

Now lets get to the next policy, the $1000/mo. universal dividend you get at age 18 and for your entire life. With that $1000 and the 50% Discount/Rebate at retail sale you can purchase $2000/mo. worth of goods and services…for life! And if you borrow to pay your tuition you’re payment is cut in half again exactly like with the EV or mortgage. Do the calculations of the purchase and finance of your tuition:

So you could pay for your college education and still have enough money to take your squeeze out to dinner and an ice cream cone a couple of times a week while you’re going to school. Nice huh?

You’re absolutely right. Its division vs unity. Unity being a major aspect of the natural philosophical concept of grace and graciousness being the active expression of love and policies being the actions of systems and nation states…makes it the answer to division/divisiveness. A simple, but pungent as in wise insight. So how do we proceed? You consider how to implement POLICIES that will effect graciousness. And probably the best and fastest way to start would be to apply a major aspect of grace, namely GIFTING to the economy and money system with a policy of a 50% Discount/Rebate at the point of retail sale. In other words the individual goes to the store and buys $100 worth of groceries and the merchant discounts that total so the individual only has to pay $50. Then the central bank (which the merchant has an account with) rebates $50…back to the merchant so he/she/it is made whole on their entire price, so no moral hazard there. The results: Everyone’s purchasing power is mathematically doubled, the potential demand for every one of the merchant’s goods and services is also doubled, chronic erosive inflation is transformed into beneficial price and asset deflation meaning The Quantity Theory of Money is invalidated and Milton Friedman turns over in his grave. Finally, participating in the economy (which EVERYONE must and does do by participating in retail sale) becomes the greatest opportunity to self actualize grace as in gratitude for a GIFT…since meditation and prayer. These are the transformative mental and temporal universe realities that occur when a paradigm change has taken place.

Lots of agreement here about what the problem is. Wonderful! Now what we need to ask ourselves what is the most universally participated in and efficacious point in the economic process to implement the solution of debt free money, i.e. Monetary Gifts? Well, everyone participates in retail sale or if you’re a minor you’re effected by the price at that point. So if you implemented a 50% Discount/Rebate policy there you’d be able to get $100 worth of groceries for $50, a $60k EV for $30k and a $500k house for $250k. But wait! What is the retail point of Finance? Why its your automobile or mortgage payment? So with the 50% Discount/Rebate the central bank pays 50% of that payment meaning you get a $60k EV for the equivalent payment of a $15k loan and a $500k house for the equivalent payment of a $125k loan. And yet with the rebate aspect of the policy every commercial agent gets their full price or full amount of interest. The 50% Discount/Rebate policy finally universally and beneficially integrates the wholly exterior parasitical costs of Finance INTO THE COST CUTTING/FRUGALITY/COMPETITIVE/LEGITIMATE ECONOMIC PROCESS. Hence it ends Finance standing like a colossus astride the nation and the world and makes it just another business model that still needs to be sanely regulated and forced to be competitive by creating a CBBS Competitive Back-Up Banking system where if you’re creditable (read everyone with a $1000/mo universal dividend and the 50% Discount/Rebate at retail sale) one can get a 3% loan if the private banks won’t grant you that rate.

Finally, finally, with the above policies…its Christmas every day of the year, or if you’re my wife 3 times per day, only kidding honey, and makes participating in the economy the greatest opportunity to self actualize gratitude for a gift since meditation and prayer. Do you think that might take the edge off of the socially scary mood the US and the world is presently in?
