About this listen

 This novel contains a possible adjustment to fractional reserve banking and other structural modifications that society should consider to achieve maximum benefit from our ever-on-going forward progression. It seems naive to believe our societal structures have reached maximum potential. The concept first came to me in early 2012. I wrote this book as discovery writing in 2018 to develop my concept, and in return, I was left with an economic model for society, that I call a needs-based money supply system. I have written largely from self-study, and am in no way an expert in some of the subject matter, but I do have formal education in accounting and finance. Also, minor formal education in philosophy and history. Many will likely and reasonably be concerned with hyperinflation when they hear of such a needs-based money supply model, but I have included safeguards and contingency plans for inflation. This model could not have been conceptualized before the advent of information networks and information systems, so I have them to thank. I also speak about the education model that we have in place. Something I have become well familiar with in my six+ years of post-secondary education. I praise education but offer some suggestions that likely will yield significant results from natural evolution. The ideas in the book have not been done and would set a new precedent around the world if ever implemented. Being organized as a business plan with precise adjustments, this book attempts to offer practical steps to the unification of the human race by trying to reach the root of human conflict. Separation is a detriment to progress, but our current societal structures largely incentivize divide. We are so fascinated by engineering’s mechanical gadgets, that we neglect to focus on social technologies and paradigms that are established, when, in fact, these social technologies are likely to provide beneficial improvements in every aspect of our society including science and mechanized technology. Needs-Based Dollar Model Objectives • Eventual zero tax. • Fully implements automation. • Stabilizes the housing markets so problems like 2008 never occur. • Eases structural implementation of self-driving cars. • Rids the world of poverty. • Lowers crime. • No political party model for higher representation. • End wars but not military. • Does not redistribute wealth. • Involves equal opportunity, not equal outcome. Additional Note to reader: This book contains some of the insights which I believe influenced the development of the needs-based money supply system contained in this book. Every chapter builds on the next and should be read as such but does not have to be. However, to understand the needs-based money supply system model, only chapters 4-7 must be read. This is not a pitchfork plan for violent revolution. Instead, it is meant as a peaceful diplomatic revolution which provides benefits to everyone while preserving capitalism. My needs-based dollar model attempts to maintain much of current structures including a central bank, as these structures have been well built and deserve gratitude, but no one should suffer in a world where we print fiat currency.
