This topic was started off by Richard "Dime box" Macaulay looking for a new economic model because of the increasing evidence that the current one is deeply flawed. I hadn't got around to mentioning sustainable or green economics which has been around for ages. I introduced the basics to our local government's "chancellor" in about 1990 - he hadn't heard about it then. Everybody will eventually hear about it when the current financial madness subsides. Howdy Nick, We are all painfully aware of the stop gap economic scenarios in use including the Green. In my post, mention was made of a new "Magi" ( as Jones would identify with Sir Isaac Newton) that could formulate a new economic model needed to address this new century's need for a working structure. Right about now we could use an honest economic system.. as the Mafia came to realize in bygone days. After all, what lowdown crook would want his ill gotten gains stolen from him. The current financial madness cannot subside because the world economic engine lacks a a new " roadmap" . It is extremely difficult to discuss theory with drug cartels that must purchase New Holland farm machiney useful for bailing round bales of US 100 dollar bills to store in their warehouse in Columbia because Euro banks won't accept anything but Visa. Another pressing problem rests with Syria,Lebanon and Hezbollah. printing counterfeit US 20 dollar bills to pay the local welfare folks in Lebanon for all the noise they made using their kids for bullet proof vests. Printing phoney US money was sorta dumb when you think about it. Now the only people taking that local phony money are the locals.. somebody is gonna be real put out when they try to make a bank deposit.. Arab banks are not stupid. The grrandmother of all knockoffs is not China knockoffs of US products.. it's a trillion and a half worth of US dollars in their banks..and somebody just told them it's NOT counterfeit... now that was really low, cuz had it been phoney they would have recourse.. now they just look foolish and.... what do they say about a Chinaman loosing face.. Regarding the Dime Box saloon.... As my ole granny Blanche Louise Townley ( a died in the wool Brit if ever was) would say.. never tell an Englishman a joke on Monday cuz he will get it next Sunday in church and upset the pastor. Most everyone in Vortex excepting the really dense understand that the Dime Box Saloon does not allow English gentlemen inside unless accompanied by a Scots. So make friends with Philip of Glasgow. Some may claim that the Dime Box is just an imaginary cyber saloon.. but it often takes the edge off harsh in the room.. so let's all be gentlemen. Richard
