NO WORKABLE ECONOMIC THEORY

The central problem of our time is that- after hundreds of years- we still do not have a workable economic theory!!! There are three primary subsystems to our economic system; each requiring a different method of funding:
1. The private (for-profit) sector [funding Projects through private sector banks]
2. The public (not-for-profit) sector [funding Projects via the public sector National bank]
3. The environment [enforced funding Protection protocol through private/public partnerships]
Our major error as a society has been to allow the private sector to act as if it were the ONLY economy, overriding the needs of the other subsystems- with disasterous results!

These main subsystems act in relation to each other. We must ensure that each functions according to its needs, so that the whole may function as a healthy, vibrant economy (private-public-global).

Each subsystem has its own aims, goals, ideology! We see this reflected in different political parties. But because of a lack of a coherent economic theory combining each relative to each other, Parties are in conflict, some having ideologies reflecting the interests of the private sector (Liberals, Conservatives), some the public sector (NDP), and some the environment (Green).

This outline and the funding methods presented above may seem simplistic, but our National bank has been used before in this manner, without in the least causing inflation! In any event, alternatives ought to be seriously considered, for all need to bind in a coherent economic whole- otherwise, we continue to court catastrophe!

THE NEW WORLD ORDER:
Citizens vs. Governments

There has always been a social struggle (government) over equitable distribution between those who have more than enough and those who have much less than enough. Clearly, The New World Order favours the former, and so our elected non-representatives talk the talk of 'freedom and democracy' while walking the walk as follows:

Governments:
The Permanent government = BIG BUSINESS Profits without borders
Provisional governments = Duly elected to serve Big Business needs
MEDIA Information Control = To speak Big Business ideology
MILITARISM: = To protect Big Business interests

versus:

Citizens:
No Representation = growing poverty, crime
Social (Public) Programs gutted = Declining health care, education, welfare
ENVIRONMENT Abandoned = Deteriorating global life support

Our elections have become a shameless sham, a hollow Orwellian rhetoric about 'liberty' and 'truth', a betrayal of citizen trust. Citizens need environmental caretaking policies, universal health care, tuition-free education, affordable housing, and social protection programs. Today, citizens are pitted against their very own governments in the New World Order.


ONE CAN ENVISION a happy, prosperous nation, rich in resources from coast to coast. A responsible nation, devoted to environmental and social fundamentals; a caring nation, whose byword is compassion, as reflected through universal health care, the alleviation of poverty, access to education for all, and multicultural diversity.iA nation other nations could look to, model, and respect.

But monetary policy (monetarism link above) must change and foreign ownership (free trade link above)bids must be reasonably assessed. Even so, such reforms must be couched within the context of a workable economic theory. Such a theory is now within our grasp.

Efforts to alert activists to the importance of economics, economic theory, and the money-creation function- have failed. Talk about 'economics', money creation, the banks, the debt and deficit continue to be viewed as 'irrelevant', a conspiracy theory, or just talk by a bunch of off-key individuals and groups. And yet, the money-creation function is SO important that it preceeds the concerns of many activist causes! WHY? Because it answers the irreducible questions "Where do we get the money?" and "How do we fund the Public Sector?" If even activists cannot grasp the critical importance of this issue, then, indeed, where to begin?

Until the general population comes to understand the importance of a workable economic theory and the money-creation function, the citizens of nation-states (not only Canada) will remain primarily debt slaves. Under present circumstances, we shall be in harness in perpetuity- unless things change. Is this the kind of world we want?

As mentioned earlier, it is likely that Canadian public opinion will continue to be carefully shaped and conditioned by centralized media control (Orwell had it right on!) to accept the notion that 'Canadians are no different from Americans'. From that point on it is only a matter of time before The Dream of Canada dissolves.

ON THE OTHER HAND, should a workable economic theory be developed in conjunction with a shift from the privatization of our money supply to its creation as a public right (It's OUR money!), a social revolution may well be the result... nnnnnNext: Links...

Will it solve all our problems? Of course not!
-But only then will it be possible to realize The Dream of Canada!
