Get daily updates via RSS. Top 1 Percent Control 42 Percent of Financial Wealth in the U.S. – How Average Americans are Lured into Debt Servitude by Promises of Mega Wealth. Many Americans are not buying the recent stock market rally. This is being reflected in multiple polls showing negative attitudes towards the economy and Wall Street.

Social Nirvana: The Abundant Society
http://socialnirvana.blogspot.com/2009/03/abundant-society.html
Sunday, March 15, 2009. But what if it was in everyone's interest to look after society's well-being instead of just their own? What if the two were one in the same? Suppose society itself were a publicly traded stock, in which each of us had an equal share, that paid dividends? What if every citizen received a guaranteed income from the government? And why shouldn't that investment pay dividends, like so many stocks do? But what if they decided to do nothing? Posted by Jonathan Cobb. Jonathan has a bach...

Social Nirvana: Monetary Myths
http://socialnirvana.blogspot.com/2011/11/monetary-myths.html
Friday, November 04, 2011. This is a Creative Commons licensed photo from wwarby's Flickr photostream. No, it did not. The money multiplier theory, even using its most simplified example, failed to predict the money supply. That’s because the money supply has far more to do with fiscal policy rather than monetary policy. So what are taxes for, then? But what about borrowing? Don’t all deficits have to be financed by government debt, thus mortgaging our children’s futures? Now, this doesn't mean that quan...

Social Nirvana: February 2009
http://socialnirvana.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 06, 2009. Most credible economists today agree that America needs a stimulus package. It appears as if we will get a watered-down version of one very soon. The package needs to be a lot bigger than it is. But, critics cry, what kind of debt will we be leaving our children? What happens when China stops buying up our debt? Debt is indeed a serious concern, but not as great as the looming threat of another Great Depression. Posted by Jonathan Cobb. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Social Nirvana: Money and Taxes
http://socialnirvana.blogspot.com/2009/04/money-and-taxes.html
Friday, April 17, 2009. One of the principle arguments leveled against Georgism is the allegation that land values would not be a sufficient tax base to raise the revenue needed for the functions of government. While this argument in itself is questionable. To raise revenue, but rather to control inflation. Thus, one of the biggest arguments against Georgism is defeated. It doesn't matter. The federal government could then abolish the income tax and turn to a power which was written into the Constitution.

Social Nirvana: Globalization Reconsidered
http://socialnirvana.blogspot.com/2010/09/globalization-reconsidered.html
Tuesday, September 28, 2010. So, what has been the reality of globalization and so-called “free trade” agreements? Then there is the issue of transportation. To transport goods half-way around the world requires a lot of fuel, mainly from petroleum. The petroleum industry enjoys numerous government subsidies, especially from the United States. Without these subsidies, would it really be profitable to ship jobs overseas, produce them in a sweatshop on the other side of the world, and then ship...Or should...
