Change is barely noticeable. Like watching paint dry. Or the gradual growth of wealth inequality over the last 60 years.
Change is the mentality of social capitalism. Increasing and decreasing taxes, fiddling with interest rates, public spending, quantitative easing, austerity.
If you’re sitting around hoping things will get better if you vote left instead of right, or right instead of left, or do nothing and wait patiently for capitalism to ‘work,’ you have another think coming my friend.
Social capitalism doesn’t change things for the better. If anything, things are getting worse. That’s because our economic system doesn’t work and policy makers are all out of ideas.
There are numerous reasons why social capitalism doesn’t work, but here are some big ones:
> it breeds conflict and culture war
> old ideas don’t work for new challenges
> it never ‘worked’
We’re a growing and changing species in an ever-changing world with new challenges for every generation.
We need an adaptive economics and politics that is capable of novelty and invention.
We need to completely transform our economics to get us there.
Transformation is sudden and noticeable. It’s like running into an old friend and being surprised at how much they’ve changed. Like the sudden transformation of the sky when lightning strikes.
It’s what we need.
We need a new economics that is completely recognizably different than social capitalism. And we need to start working toward it now.
We need to remove the profit motive. We need to end taxes, debt and exploitation. We need to rescue our environments. And we need this done within two generations.
We need economic activity that actually improves global quality of life. We need governments and goods that are there for us when we need them.
The first stage of the Transformation will be, frankly, “socialist”: taking back money and assets from the rich to start work on the global clean energy, health, education, housing and agricultural transformation.
The second stage will see the implementation of the new economics.
Systems of debt, exploitation, taxation, obscene wealth, insurance and banking will be incrementally dissolved. The monetary system will be replaced.
