All of what you say regarding neo-liberalism is correct. Full stop. However, the even deeper problem is that macro-economics almost entirely abstracts out the individual agent and thus it sets up an ethic that says Man was made for Systems…rather than Systems were made for Man. We need an ethical/humane macro-economics. We can accomplish that by integrating a new monetary paradigm of Strategic Monetary Gifting into the current monopoly paradigm for the creation and distribution of all new money which is Debt ONLY. The word ONLY designates it as a monopoly paradigm the same as Salvation Via Roman Catholic Sacraments ONLY was a monopoly paradigm and The Reformation ended that inhumane/unethical reality. We require a monetary reformation or the current dominating monetary paradigm wielded by the private banking system will continue to stand astride the world like a collosus…forever. I’m not suggesting we eliminate debt altogether, that would simply replace a monopoly paradigm with another monopoly paradigm. However, if we implemented a policy of a 50% Discount/Rebate at retail sale 50% of all new money would be a gift that benefitted both commercial agents AND individual agents and (because your monthly automobile, mortgage or other big ticket item’s monthly payment is the retail point of finance) the retail discount policy would integrate finance into the actual economic/productive system instead of allowing it to be a dominating and very costly exterior parasite on everyone and the actual economic system. Applying the 50% Discount/Rebate at the retail point of finance would actually benefit the banks because if everyone got a 50% discount on price for consumer goods and then an additional 50% reduction when they bought a big ticket item (example: a $500k house is reduced to $250k at its purchase point, and then the central bank paid 50% of your monthly mortgage payment the individual gets that $500k house for a payment equivalent of a $125k loan)…the market for mortgages quadruples or more because virtually EVERYONE IS CREDITABLE!

GW: Complimenting Steve Keen: Super! From Ptolemy to Copernicus in Economic theory. Better late than never!

Me: Not quite. His systemic analysis is all perfectly true, but his remedy is more like Ptolemaic cosmology’s “epicycles”, that is, a (false) fix because it doesn’t penetrate to the core problem which is the monopoly monetary and economic CONCEPT of Debt ONLY.

Me: I’m all for public banks, but the change from private to public banking doesn’t enable the kind of total problem resolving and temporal universe change as a change in the nature of credit ITSELF…from Debt Only to Debt and Strategic Monetary Gifting. A change in CONCEPT is a change in paradigm because…paradigms are themselves concepts…like the change from geo-centrism to helio-centrism for instance. The private banks and even a public bank will still only create money as debt. Again, the only way to break up their monopoly paradigm concept of Debt Only is to integrate the new monetary paradigm concept of Gifting…into the Debt Only current system…like with a 50% Discount/Rebate policy at retail sale. That way a $500k house is discounted to $250k and the government or central bank rebates the entirety of the discount back to the home builder so they are made whole on their entire price. And then, as your monthly mortgage payment is the retail point of Finance, the government or central bank pays for 50% of your monthly payment so you get a $500k house for an equivalent mortgage payment of a $125k loan. Nice huh? But wait, the benefits don’t stop there. For instance make the 50% Discount/Rebate include all sales taxes and the non-sovereign state, county and local governments get 50% of their revenues paid by the federal government…Not you…and with GIFTED money…NOT debt. Inflation? Getting $100 worth of groceries for $50 and a $500k house for the equivalent of $125k is a funny kind of inflation called beneficial price and asset deflation.

DP: Canada’s central bank went from private to public in 1938. Since then its money creation went from about 50% of the economy, to 23% in the early 1970’s, to less than 5% today. Form, follows function, follows form etc. Without the proper feedback structure, it’s only a matter of time before regulatory capture results in less public consideration. Just like the CDC and FDA, as was recently exposed.

In the U.S. binary economics ties credit creation to the INDIVIDUAL through Section 13 of the Fed Reserve Act, the discount window. 0% interest loan, only for the purchase of shares in existing or new productive proper, onetime bookkeeping fee, collateral by insurance.

You can start with 2 minute video, watch the 10 minute video on the Economic Democracy Act on the home page at gjmer.org

My home province has an institution far superior to the Bank of North Dakota, the other publicly owned ‘state’ bank in North American. It is the Alberta Treasury Branches, designed by REAL social crediters. Alberta autonomy or independence can lead to this shaking off the Supreme Court of Canada ruling against money creation.

Me: Dan, Did you see my post above? The 50% Discount/Rebate at retail sale is an innovation of Douglas’ Compensated Retail Price and is a full concept/paradigm change in the economy and money system. Douglas was way ahead of everyone else with Social Credit, but like virtually everyone he lived within his present cultural horizon with classical economics’ orthodoxy of general equillibrium and hence never considered a high percentage CRP. Also, he preceeded Kuhn’s analysis of paradigms/operant concepts.

Me: All of what you say are problems, but the biggest and deepest problem remains the monopolistic paradigm concept for the creation and distribution of all new money which is Debt ONLY. The word ONLY designates it as a monopoly paradigm. Now there isn’t anything wrong with the concept of debt itself only its paradigmatic onlyness. Integrating the new monetary paradigm of Gifting into the economy at strategic points like retail sale with equal debits and credits with a 50% Discount/Rebate policy at that point breaks up that monopoly paradigm, ends inflation by implementing beneficial price and asset deflation, invalidates The Quantity Theory of Money and doubles everyone’s purchasing power. The heads of the orthodox explode.

GOTHS: I’m not certain how gifting does anything, because from the concept I drawn from anthropology is that gifting itself is there a particular way communities with close ties exchange items to reinforce social bonds, as well as distribute all the products that they create.

There are lots of examples of non-monetary communities, explicitly traditional, or the intentional communities that many people have created. In these communities, you see people who have common goods whether it’s food or a tool library or traditional societies where they use a system of corveé with a social contract that you know that contributing to the communities labor needs endows the individual with a claim on goods like clothing and food and housing and what not. This is managed by the community and by leadership that is respected based on you know any number of criteria, but generally not authoritarian.

Me: Well thats the rare and tiny systems of barter which does not describe actual large monetary/fiat monetary systems which are dominated by the monopoly concept of Debt Only. That plus barter isn’t gifting…its simply exchange of commodity/item for commodity/item which is economics minus money. Money is a wondeful tool, it just gets screwed up when that tool becomes a monopoly paradigm that the powerful use to dominate almost everybody.

Me: If the democrats want to win in the next election they’re going to have to come up with a set of innovative economic policies that everyone can benefit from and that is easy to understand. One such policy would be a 50% Discount/Rebate at retail sale where every merchant agrees to discount their prices by 50% and then the government or the central bank creates the monies (not debt) and rebates every cent of that discount back to the merchant granting it to the consumer. Voila! An economic and monetary paradigm change where everyone can get $100 worth of groceries for $50, a $60k Ev ends up only being $15k (50% off at retail = $30k and then because the retail point of a loan is your payment that amount is reduced by 50% so your payment is the equivalent of a loan for $15k) Also, a $500k house is ultimately reduced to a payment equivalent of only $125k. Ignore the orthodox on all sides and the cynical naysayers just keep broadcasting the benefits to the masses and its “an idea whose time has come”.

WF: It is more than economics, a lot more. Trump’s base, which appears to be a steady 40%, well maybe 37%, is the culture war. The non MAGA bystanders, who didn’t vote, or voted for Trump are motivated by other issues, including Israel/Palestine, and male grievance.

And by the way, a correction to your statement “the government or the central bank creates the monies (not debt) and rebates every cent of that discount back to the merchant granting it to the consumer” Is incorrect in more ways than one.

The Fractional Reserve System, which the Fed (our Central Bank) controls, enables financial institutions, which includes insurance companies, to create money out of debt.

There is a simple equation, no debt = no money. And if you don’t believe me look into the horses mouth: Modern Money Mechanics by the https://archive.org/details/modern-money-mechanics

And as the debt is paid off, that portion of the principal is wiped off the books, IOW the money so created goes out of existence,

Everytime you swipe your credit card, buy a car, mortgage a home,you are creating money,.

What is not zero’d out and what causes long term inflation is the interest on the debt, because when you incur the debt, the money needed to pay the interest is not created, and the result, globally, is that producers are forced to raise prices and/or reduce quality and quantity.

Me: I’m sorry but you’re not seeing what I’m saying…which is that this policy implements a NEW monetary paradigm for the creation and distribution of all new money. The current paradigm is Debt ONLY, that is its a monopoly paradigm where the creation and distribution of all new money is created ONLY as Debt, and the new monetary paradigm integrated into the Debt ONLY system is Monetary Gifting. New paradigms always destroy orthodoxies, in this case it destroys The Quantity Theory of Money because it increases the money supply and yet it implements beneficial DEFLATION…the heads of the orthodox explode.

Me: The theory of fractional reserve banking is a myth and has been invalidated by the economist Steve Keen who has shown that it requires all new loans to be IN CASH instead of credit and credit as in Debt Only which is actually the case. The new monetary paradigm of Gifting strategically integrated into the economy at retail sale breaks up the debt only monopolistic paradigm and results in the benefits I described in my first post.

WF: I am not seeing anything. I am simply explaining Modern Money Mechanics, Your argument isn’t with me, It is with Fractional Reserve Banking. I gave you a link to the publication from the Fed. I’ve done my part.

To increase the quantity of money, requires an increase in debt, public, corporate and private. Public means Governmen Securities, private includes credit cards.

An increase in debt leads to an increase in the money supply,and thus an increase in the price of goods sold.

That is not “seeing anything” i is not opinion, it is scientific fact.

Financial institutions hate inflation, and love deflation. Inflation means that one can pay off debts with cheap money, deflation means that they can confiscate property, used as collateral, and sell it later and make more profit.

During the German Hyperinflation of 1922, workers would collect their pay for the day, or the hour, and rush out to pay off mortgages.

The German hyperinflation increased the money supply, hourly.

Me: The theory of fractional reserve banking is a myth and has been invalidated by the economist Steve Keen who has shown that it requires all new loans to be IN CASH instead of credit and credit as in Debt Only which is actually the case. The new monetary paradigm of Gifting strategically integrated into the economy at retail sale breaks up the debt only monopolistic paradigm and results in the benefits I described in my first post. Getting $100 worth of groceries for $50, a $60k EV for $15k and a $500k house for $125k is “a funny kind of inflation wouldn’t you say?

WF: Fractional reserve banking is as much a theory as gravity.

That is how the system is set up, and in fact it is how banking has worked since the advent of banking and the ability of a bank to print it’s own notes.

Of course loans are paid off in cash. Your statement ” that it requires all new loans to be IN CASH instead of credit and credit as in Debt Only” makes no sense, but I am sure that there are those that borrow money to pay the interest on the debt, like the U.S.

Why would anyone borrow money (at a higher interest rate) to pay off a loan at a lower interest rate.

I refinanced my home, before I paid off the mortgage, because I got a lower interest rate.

Your first post is gobblydoo gook. Makes absolutely no sense.

Me: Again, you’re not looking at the actions of the policy. Retail merchants would register/create an account with The FED or the government and agree to reduce their prices by 50%. Then when they confirmed the reipts of the sales and discounts to the monetary authority it would rebate the entire amount of daily discounts BACK TO THE MERCHANT so that they would be made whole on their FULL price. Why would the merchant like this? Because it would double the potential demand for every one of their goods and services IOW its in their self interest to participate in the policy. And of course its in the self interest of every consumer to receive a gift of 50% of the price of everything.

This is simple accounting practice where equal debits and credits sum to zero which is the actual way that new money is already created by the banks and the government AS DEBT ONLY. The difference here is this money is created AS A GIFT…and because it is distributed at the point of retail sale which among other things is the point of terminal calculation of inflation…it transforms chronic erosive inflation into beneficial price and asset DEFLATION. Again, the heads of the orthodox explode.

WF: This comment Steve is nonsense, devoid of reality. Where the fuck are you going to get $100 worth of groceries for $50, or a $60K EV for 15k.

Well the EV is probably a used car, or an unsold Tesla Cybertruck or Model S. But you ain’t a goin to buy a $500k house for $125K, unless there is a severe depression and then even not. Banks will hold on to properties they acquire through repossession and sell them later and reap a huge profit, not to mention the profit of interest on the loan.

Me: Sorry, all irrelevant objections to the policy actions and its real world effects.

WF: You still make no sense, but here comes an ad hominem, you come off as obsessively deranged.

Me: It made no sense to advocate for helio-centrism when geo-centrism was the orthodoxy…but eventually the advocates of the latter had to face the truth. An identity change is sometimes discomforting, but it doesn’t kill you.

WF: And that analogy is relevant, how?

Me: Your unwillingness to consider that accounting is the way banks create new money instead of fractional reserve banking. Which means that using that same accounting method could create new money as either debt or as a gift…which of course enables the benefits I have described here.

WF: There is one thing that proliferates on the internet and that is people with big ideas that have all the answers and believe that they are the savior. I’ve seen my share, and more than enough of them, like you, post here on Reich’s page hoping to snare some meat for their own little cult.

No thank you

Me: Fine, but if the simple policy I advocate is ever implemented I’ll bet you won’t refuse the 100% increase in purchasing power it will give you. You might be hanging on to a false orthodoxy, but I’m confident you won’t be that stupid.

And by the way long distance internet psychoanalysis of others is a very VERY inaccurate “science”.

WF: Yeh, just what we need another person with a savior complex and the solution to the world;s problems.

Millions have tried, millions have failed. The reason, the many facets of human mentality and behavior

Me: Cynicism and invalidation are always rife before new paradigms are recognized as the solution to anomalous present ones. Consult history on that. Add to that the fact that we are long into the anomalous monopolistic paradigm for intellectual inquiry, namely Science Only, when the superlative intellectual impulse and discipline has ALWAYS been Wisdom which is the third way toward the resolution of seemingly unresolvable opposites. As I like to say: “Science is wonderful, necessary and delicious…and it exists entirely as a set within the digestive tract of Wisdom.”

Your last statement is an example of the modern intellectual disease of cynicism which is mental stopping before one even starts to do something. As the Japanese military strategist Sun Tsu said: “If you can convince the enemy (in this case those who hear about a new paradigm) that there is no reason to fight…you will win every war without a single battle.

WF: So you are a paradigm buster Steve. Pretty grandiose I would say. You validate my assessment.

Me: Accounting is probably the most temporal universe reality anchoring discipline man has ever created, and creating and distributing monetary gifts with accounting at the universally participated in temporal universe point of retail sale gets rid of the monopoly paradigm for money creation and distribution and implements the benefits I’ve described and you still have not looked at apparently. Please keep trying.
I realized the new paradigm and how to implement it by study, a lot of lucky insights from others and keeping an open mind. You don’t know me. I’m sure you’re an otherwise decent person who is just holding onto an orthodoxy that is no longer true. Try to open your mind to a new APPLIED idea. It won’t kill you.

WF: Word salad Steve, totally incomprehensible. Maybe I should humor you, my good deed for the week

You are just another salesman, hawking wares, by trolling a popular and highly read substack. You are one of many, and I mean many. So many saviors, so little time.

Me: Accounting is the way banks and governments create money. They create it ONLY AS DEBT. The word ONLY designates it as a monopoly. Using accounting to create and distribute monetary gifts breaks up that monopoly and creates the benefits I described. Even you, a non-looker, can follow that simple logical process and see its effects …if they actually look at it.

WF: You got one thing right, money is created our of debt, but it isn’t accounting that does it, accounting only records the transaction. Money is distributed by people (whose debt has created it) as they see fit, and by government to pay it’s bills.So your theory is nonsense. And WTF is a non looker,.

FYI I have a Masters in Finance and Accounting, and I studied the Fed, and Central Banks, including the GosBank (The USSR and the Bank of Israel)

And the alternatives to fractional reserve banking are unworkable and undesireable. Gold/silver, printing press money and now crypto, the biggest scam of all, created by guys in their underwear sitting at a keyboard.

Me: “FYI I have a Masters in Finance and Accounting, and I studied the Fed, and Central Banks, including the GosBank (The USSR and the Bank of Israel)”

Thats probably one of the reasons you’re not looking at what I post. Institutional education is mostly a process of acculturating present orthodoxies not innovative observation. And accountants know where every debit and credit goes, but they don’t do conceptual/paradigmatic analysis and so they miss the realities, good and bad, that paradigms create and enforce.

Your last paragraph is completely accurate except for printing press/fiat money creation and fractional reserve banking.

WF: No Steve, my education is what informs me that you are a misbegotten would be savior, and full of it.

Fiat actually means faith. It refers to printing press money. Federal Reserve Money is limited by debt. The government can’t print it as it please and use it to pay its bills.

It does print government securities and sells them to the Association of Primary Dealer in Government Securities (Google it), when then sells them to the Fed, which uses them as it’s reserve base for creating money out of debt, and also sells them to sovereign funds, institutions, and other central banks, which use them as their reserve base.

All of that in the pdf I linked to which you won’t read, because you think you know it all.

Me: I don’t dispute the present creation process you describe…only that money is created ONLY AS DEBT…which makes it a monopoly paradigm that is at the root of our monetary and economic problems. And all you have to do is amend the FED’s charter to create the monies, NOT DEBT, to fulfill the rebate aspect of the 50% Discount/Rebate policy.

So you’re wrong, I know exacty where you’re coming from. ITS YOU WHO REFUSES TO SEE THAT UTILIZING THE SAME ACCOUNTING OPERATIONS COULD CREATE AND DISTRIBUTE THE MONIES FOR THE REBATE ASPECT OF THE 50% POLICY AT RETAIL SALE WHICH IN TURN WOULD IMPLEMENT THE BENEFITS I’VE DESCRIBED.

THERE’S ACTUALLY HISTORY HERE AS LINCOLN DISTRIBUTED NON-DEBT GREENBACKS WHICH HAD VERY BENEFICIAL EFFECTS LIKE WINNING THE CIVIL WAR, BUT BECAUSE HE DIDN’T HAVE THE DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY WE HAVE TODAY AND THE GREENBACKS WEREN’T DISTRIBUTED AT RETAIL SALE WHICH IS THE TERMINAL EXPRESSION POINT OF INFLATION AND HENCE IT DIDN’T MATHEMATICALLY ELIMINATE INFLATION LIKE THE 50% DISCOUNT/REBATE POLICY.

So whats your next irrelevant and orthodox non-rebuttal to what I’m saying???

WF: I don’t discuss with a fool who types in all caps, that means you have no argument, except to scream.

Oh, Lincoln financed the war by selling bonds, and after the war the bond holders, especially in London, wanted repayment in Gold. He refused, he was assassinated, His Vice President, Seymour Johnson also refused to pay the debt in specie.

In the election of 1868, The World, a NY based neswpaper owned and controlled by August Belmont(of the , withdrew support for the conservative candidate, Horatio Seymour, because his party would not endorse redemption of American War Bonds in Gold. A European banking syndicate(Rothschild / Baring) owned a large amount of these bonds and the bonds, by terms of issue(act of Feb 25,1862) were payable in greenbacks ‘this treachery threw the election to Grant.”

The first act of his administration was to pass legislation (The Credit Strengthening Act of Mar 18, 1869) which redeemed the bonds in coin, bonds which were originally sold at half prices because of their irredeemably in coin (gold). If these measures are not adequate then there are always, of course extreme measures available.

Note: Lincoln’s life was threatened from the front page of the London Times by Banking and Trading interests because he would not redeem Greenbacks (true fiat money) for gold.

So you don’t like the system as is.

What is your solution? Crypto?

Oh by the way, bankers hate inflation, it enables the common man to pay off debts with cheap money. during the German hyper inflation of 1922, a worker would get their paycheck and rush to the bank to pay off their mortgage with one days or hours work.

Whats to love with deflation? With deflation they can repossess real property, then hold on to it until the economy recovers and then sell it at great profit, also profiting from the loans.

The big banks made out like bandits during the banking crisis of 2008, they repossessed property, held it for resale later, and received a bail out from the government. on top of that.

Me: Google search: Did Lincoln sell bonds to English banks to create Greenbacks?
No, Lincoln did not directly sell bonds to English banks to create greenbacks (United States Notes).
Here’s a breakdown:
Greenbacks were created through the Legal Tender Act of 1862: This act authorized the US Treasury to issue $150 million in United States Notes (greenbacks), which were not backed by gold or silver but declared legal tender for most debts.
Bonds were sold to various investors: While the government sold bonds to help finance the Civil War, they were sold to a range of investors, including American citizens and some foreign investors, but there’s no specific indication that they were exclusively sold to English banks.
The purpose of bonds was to raise funds for the war, not specifically to back greenbacks: The bonds were a separate tool used to generate revenue alongside the issuance of greenbacks, taxes, and other measures.
Greenbacks could be reissued after bond sales: Notably, the Treasury was allowed to reissue United States Notes that it received from bond sales, further increasing the money supply.
In summary, the issuance of greenbacks was a direct action by the US government through the Legal Tender Act, not a result of bond sales to specific foreign banks.

Your list of crimes and assasinations only highlights why changing the monetary paradigm is so important. Crypto is a scam and not a currency and its not a secure way of dealing with the present anomalous monetary paradigm…like a 50% Discount/Rebate at retail sale is.

As for hyperinflations the hyperness of them in the Weimar republic one wasn’t really initiated until after private banking leveraged up and shorted the currency. Zimbabwe’s case was just stupidity on top of continued stupidity and could have been largely if not completely avoided with the policies I suggest.

There is no deflation of ultimate price with the 50% Discount/Rebate because everyone gets their full price with the rebate aspect of the policy. The consumer DOES benefit via the deflationary result of the discount and the policy increases demand and market size for the commercial agents.

You can ignore it, but you can’t get around the fact that using equal debits and credits to lower the price at retail sale creates beneficial deflation for virtually all economic agents. So please try looking at that temporal universe problem resolving action.

WF: Did I say that Lincoln sold Bonds to Britiish Banks? No I did not. Lincoln sold bonds to finance the civil war, and they were bought by British investors namely the investment bankers Rothschild and Baring.

I’ve had it with you. I’ve been a fool engaging.

Me: My last post acknowledges that additional bonds were sold. My point over all though was to point out that simply creating money as money and not debt was what really enabled the North to win the civil war, and that doing so with the Discount/Rebate at retail sale also does have the temporal universe ability to transform erosive inflation into beneficial deflation. But you can go on not looking at that fact as long as you so desire.

Learning something new is frustrating only to those who will not open their minds to new demonstrated facts. Adios, and I might post additional policies here that soldify the beneficial effects of the new monetary paradigm. Looking forward to you not cluttering the thread with off the mark critiques.

WF: You have nothing to contribute. I am more than familiar with your type.

You read a book, became a missionary, and with the assistance of google AI think they have become a savior, of only people will listen to you, and if they don’t jump on your bandwagon, then they are dolts.

As I said my mistake was engaging with you. While your misbegotten screed is the result of reading a book and google.

My sources are a two year research, scouring the reference libraries and attics of two universities and receiving documents from five central banks and a study of the marketing and banking system of the USSR.

You have nothing to add, and I certainly don’t see you as a savior, and as regards myself, I have nothing to sell and I am not a customer for the crap you are trying to sell.

Me: Authorities and their orthodoxies are the first victims of new paradigms. :). I thought you weren’t going to reply to me anymore. Please try to keep your word.
https://www.amazon.com/Wisdomics-Gracenomics-New-Monetary-Paradigm-Policies-ebook/dp/B0C49B9PX7/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1552358772&sr=1-1-catcorr

Creating and distributing money has always been the route to economic good times and during wars, winning them. Even deeper and more important than that historical fact is awakening to the deepest and longest unresolved economic problem which is the monopolistic monetary paradigm that new money can only be created and distributed as debt, i.e. Debt Only…which the banks wield and the government foolishly affirms. We need to make that fact as conscious as we possibly can, and resolve it by strategically and intelligently integrating the new monetary paradigm of Gifting into the Debt Only system. MMTers are actually late comers to the fact that new money is crerated by accounting entries. C. H. Douglas of the Social Credit movement between the world wars recognized this long before them. Douglas was a very clear minded individual, but like virtually everyone he was still a victim of acculturated false orthodoxies like the classical economic idea of general equillibrium which wed to the monopoly monetary paradigm prevents one from considering the single policy that would be a paradigm change all by itself, namely a 50% Discount (credit to the consumer) at retail sale/Full Rebate (debit to the back to the merchant). This policy mathematically doubles everyone’s purchasing power while implementing beneficial price and asset deflation…because retail sale is the terminal ending point of the entire economic process where production exits the economy and becomes consumption and (my own new macro-economic insight) EVERYONE participates in retail sale so its the single aggregative as in macro-economic point in the entire economic process…and so the perfect place to implement monetary policy. Secure the new monetary paradigm’s benefits by 1) taxing greedflation and any other bogus “increase” in costs at a rate of 100%, 2) index the retail discount/rebate to any legitimate inflationary cost increases 3) regulate with the additional policies in my book “Wisdomics-Gracenomics: The New Monetary Paradigm and It Policies” that rebutt orthodox critiques and resolve the other anomalies of the current paradigm.

Where is MMT on this?

MMT is a good reform bucking the same civilization-long moral and intellectual acculturation around the concept of debt. However, they need to up their game to paradigmatic analysis because reforms are always palliatives with half lives of decades or less and new paradigms are deep and permanent systemic-wide changes. The simplicity of new key applied ideas have always been where the power actually is. That may be an affront to the intellectual vanities of the erudite, but its historical fact.

The best way to explain a new concept is to find the places and ways to implement it in the world that the individual can easily experience for themselves. Thats what the 50% Discount/Rebate at retail sale and 50% Gift of Interest/Debt jubilee at point of loan signing does in spades because everyone participates in retail sale and increasingly in things like mortgages.

If you’re for free profit-making markets you can’t be for a monopoly paradigm wielded by a single business model and delusionally acquiest in by the government. If you do you’d have to say that The Reformation was wrong for breaking up the monopoly paradigm the Roman Catholic church had on salvation via its sacraments ONLY.

The issue that the general populace cares about is inflation. Hence, end inflation forever by implementing the two 50% price reduction and debt jubilee policies I suggest at retail sale and point of loan signing, and tax any increase in final costs that is a fraud at a rate of 100%…and proceed to a liberal progressive political coalition greater than The New Deal.

Integrating a new monetary paradigm of Gifting into the debt, as in burden to pay/repay Only system, makes keeping Social Security flush much easier. Why? Because what is the payment/retail point for your social security insurance? Thats right, the payroll tax that comes out of your wages. With the 50% Discount/Rebate policy that amount is reduced by…50%, thus saving you money.

The combination of the 50% retail discount and another policy that aligns with the new monetary paradigm, i.e. a UBI/universal dividend of say $1000/mo. enables us to not only half the individual cost of social security they also make welfare and unemployment insurance completely redundant…because if every adult gets a $1000 monthly dividend that with the 50% retail discount policy means they have $2000/mo. worth of purchasing power…so then the payroll taxes for these services, that both employees and emplyers pay, can be eliminated.

Just another example of how a monetary mega-paradigm change integrates the self interests of traditionally opposed constituencies.

***********************************************************

Thats because you’re not doing the simple math of equal debits and credits that sum to zero at the strategic points I suggest is done. $100 worth of groceries minus 50% is $50 and yet with the rebate the merchant gets their full price. $100 worth of social security insurance premium minus $50 with the 50% discount means you get an extra $50 net income on your paycheck and yet $100 goes to fund social security.

Here’s another mind blowing truth that the new monetary paradigm enlightens: Accounting/double entry bookkeeping with its equal debits and credits that sum to zero operation is actually reflective of the quantum reality where particles pop in and out of existence.

I’m the one trying to actually resolve problems and explode delusions with a paradigm change instead of offering up palliative reforms like MMT. And Rube Goldberg describes the current system that is actually just a double bind in disguise overseen by Finance and The FED’s ham handed monetary policies that punish way too much, way to long and from which only the wealthy oligarchs and the banks emerge unscathed.

THE SOLUTION IS ALL ABOUT A NEW MONETARY PARADIGM!

*******************************************************

No, its algebra, i.e. -5 + 5= 0, and accounting equal debits and credits that sum to zero, and a new macro-economic/aggregative insight that EVERYONE participates in/is the effect of price at retail sale and so it is the perfect place to implement monetary policy, and last but not least its paradigmology which is my own new body of knowledge whose primary insights are 1) historically every new paradigm is in complete conceptual opposition to the current anomalous paradigm concept, which incidentally also makes it harder for people to perceive because the acculturation process is largely an unconscious accepting process for the mass of individuals, and in the modern age of science which highly values logic its an additional hurdle for intellects to wrap their heads around, and 2) the mental and temporal universe effects of every historical paradigm change have always been an aspect or aspects of the natural philosophical concept of grace.
