Economics must integrate itself with human wisdom, beyond that it must
integrate itself with what I refer to as the four most potent
distillations of human wisdom, namely Confidence, Hope, Love and
Grace. Now I understand that this is probably just too fuzzy for
mathematicians and economists that still think economics is actually a
science....but it still remains the answer. Why? Because wisdom is the
"science" of the ethical integration of thought and deed ITSELF. That
is, it is the accumulation of the best conclusions and solutions to
human problems of BOTH thought AND deed that those who have
contemplated such for probably the last 10,000 years have come up
with. Wisdom always considers all modes of thinking, all tools
available and all factors.....even those that one might either be
unaware of or that are being missed (the latter of which is too seldom
even considered and thus hampers economic theory from the scientific
perspective). In other words wisdom is that mode of thinking that
includes everything....even if the person utilizing wisdom....doesn't
have all of the facts. No, I didn't stutter there. Because wisdom is
BOTH data AND intuition....AND the full and complete integration of
both...and intuition can grasp solutions...without full data..or any
data at all for that matter. This (utilizing the mode of thinking that
is wisdom) is often how the truly great scientists in fact, come up
with their novel and breakthrough insights. Considering this, its
curious that we even seem reluctant or adverse to the suggestion that
we utilize wisdom...but then we live in a modern world and so we must
overcome its biases....even if we mistakenly think those biases are
the solution. Which, considering solutions, brings me back to wisdom,
or rather its distillations which are the most potent and powerful
ingredients of the most potent and powerful means of finding ethically
integrated answers to human thinking AND acting. And before I launch
into a micro- sermonette about them (deal with it) remember that last
statement, that is, wisdom cannot be irrelevant for that reason…
because by definition and character it always has BOTH an internal AND
an external component.
So Confidence, Hope, Love and Grace. These ideas, values, purposes and
most importantly experiences are the pinnacle of wisdom because they
are the boiled down essentials of the PROGRESSION that every human
being needs to go through to mature and understand himself,
others….and Life. Note they are a progression with Grace at the
pinnacle of the pinnacle of that progression. You can’t get any
deeper, any more essential and hence any more universally applicable
to everything, than these. They are the bedrock of the Human canon,
and if nature and even the cosmos is replete with symmetry, and it is…
then there must be a symmetry in the best workings of our systems and
ourselves. And that is what we are lacking generally in the modern
world and specifically in our economic, financial and monetary
systems. So let us have that symmetry accurately reflected there.
Grace within and Grace without. Grace, which is about freedom,
abundance and the free gift, is what is actually missing in “free”
market economic theory. A free gift of Monetary Grace can make that
theory truly free and graciously free flowing…finally, as well as
awaken us to the abundance of the VALUE of the capital appreciation
that is all around us…and that debt is merely the unintegrated,
unsymmetrical manifestation thereof.

Yes Steve, society as a whole should not pay for what it produces but only for what it consumes. This core Social Credit precept is no doubt a very difficult proposition to accept by people accustomed to our accepted conventional and defective mode of payments and the prevailing false ethics or philosophy which elevates work for its own sake and supports, thereby, the current tyrannical and oppressive debt edifice.

Wallace, this gets embarassingly naive.
Who do you expect to produce items thatare not paid for?

Economists, scientists, and politicians…I challenge you to consider
something new under the sun, to have courage, in fact to have the
courage….to have and embrace faith! Faith as in the psychological
experience of confidence. Grace was an evolutionary concept in the
first century. It has proven to be an evolutionary experience to
hundreds of millions since. Join me in embracing it as an equally
evolutionary economic, financial and monetary policy. Can it be too
much to believe in the transformational policy…of a transformational
idea and experience? After all what is the entrepreneurial and
productive value of loosing technological innovation from any
restraint associated with the human suffering caused by unemployment?
What are the possibilities for discovery and further enlightenment of
the nature of the cosmos as a result of the same? What are the
personal advantages to knowing that you’ve risen above narrow self
interest and evolved your own profession in the name of better serving
Humanity? Have faith in monetary Grace! It does not restrict or
exclude profit, it frees, enables and transforms it. It does not
restrict or exclude research and discovery, it frees and enables it
and might even enhance and transform science itself. It doesn’t even
restrict or exclude self interest…it just broadens its constituency
and better enables the ethics of statesmanship.

When you wed the irresistible force of advanced technological
capability to the immovable object of profit making systems you can
analyze it every which way, but the only solution to keeping profit
making systems.....is the citizen's dividend and compensated retail
discount. They are like two protons in a particle accelerator on a
collision course and something has to give. The result of that wedding/
collision is something more fundamental like a "god"
particle....or should we say a Grace particle. Some would say, "Oh
don't get God involved in any of this." I'm not actually. I'm talking
about the physics of human awareness. Humans have evolved the ability
to experience confidence, hope, love and grace for probably 50-60,000
years. It's time our systems....caught up. Funny how symmetry
(reflection) is so fundamental and important in nature and the cosmos.
Maybe the financial and monetary systems require a truly social
symmetry...in order for profit making systems to evolve, survive and
thrive.

Posted to Steve Keen's and Ellen Brown's forum:
The key to understanding the real power of the world is in
understanding the nature of finance which currently has a paradigm of
"only this for that". That paradigm enables finance to dominate the
entirety of the economy with their current monopoly on credit
creation. Breaking up that monopoly...and also expanding the narrow
window of purposes for which finance is granted, namely for production
and for profit only...is again the key. That is why the idea and
policy of monetary Grace, the FREE GIFT is both so anathema to
finance...and the evolutionary concept that must be realized....if we
want to progress out of the back waters of homo economicus toward a
truly holistic and more aware homo sapiens.

As Jim Kirk would say, "If you don't want to lose....change the
paradigm ....so you don't have to."
And no, you don't have to adapt the concept of Grace to economics and
money....technology will force you to adapt economics and money.....to
Grace.
