Purchasing Power Grand Design of the Centuries

“Purchasing Power, Grand Design of the Centuries” (and how we will shape the things to come)

 In the realms of economics and finance, the need is, in addition to the greater need for peace, for citizens and policymakers to understand how a dollar of Purchasing Power comes into expression, how it moves through commerce and the particulars of how it is extinguished according to a pre-arranged time frame.

At the core, Purchasing Power is process.  One could call it the mechanical processes around which the world has organized itself.  The world has a Financial Operating System whose architecture demands the flow of all things financial through a series of pre-determined steps.  And so goes the economy that floats on top of the Financial Operating System.

Today, Purchasing Power processes are viewed through a lens colored with concepts and language of money, a thing.  One cannot understand moving processes through a lens focused on a static thing, any more than one can understand freeway traffic in terms of a parked car.  The Financial Operating System, often called the Monetary System, is principally money-less.

The very idea of a money-less Financial Operating System provides a great intellectual release.  The Financial Operating System, to which we agree to tether ourselves to, is but a large social agreement that establishes the protocols for how economic productivity, that sustains human life and happiness, is to be handled. 

Understanding the protocols of the Financial Operating System is elemental not only to understanding where the world is today but envisioning what protocols may need upgrading for the world we want for the generations of humanity already here and those generations in the process of coming in.

America, the heart of the world, is at the forefront with its system of education, to bring citizens and policymakers “Into the Know” and help clarify the confusions regarding the nation’s financial self.  This helps clarify the confusions regarding the world’s financial self. 

How the nations of the world got into this money-less agreement came in part from trying to organize economies around a scarcity of precious metals.  Organizing around scarcity results in scarcity.  The world transitioned from a scarcity of precious metals to a system wholly predicated upon the arts of debt.  This expanded Purchasing Power has played a role in making America what it is today.  So, if we are using debt expansion to accommodate our well-being, and we have reached maximum debt expansion - well then we must put our thinking caps on and create something better.  Something new that goes beyond scarcity and debt.

It will be citizens and policymakers that understand Purchasing Power, Grand Design of the Centuries that will lead the way to overcoming all third-world conditions and pulling the fangs from the debt that overshadows humanity.
