Project Financial Independence

Financial IndependenceFinancial independence forProject Financial Independence anyone can only be built on the Financial Interdependence of everyone. Let us neglect long-term plans for the system as a whole for a while. Let us concentrate our attention on the most practical thing of all on earth: CashCash, Money in our very own pockets. (Even though economists study ONLY the theory of money, they seem to disdain money. On the other hand, many people try to obtain the effects of financial independence through a philosophical understanding of Positive Money; their position will eventually be much strengthened through advocacy of a transformation in the operations of those institutions that create and distribute money). If we do that, we reach some fundamental understanding of some egregious problems that beset our contemporary life: Why is there such a thing as the bane of consumerismConsumerism? (We shall leave the bane of hedonism well enough alone in this book.) Why is there such a thing as political oscillations between the extreme right and the extreme left? Why are communitiesCommunity disaggregating under our very eyes? No, the forces that catapult such issues forward are not psychological or political forces. They are economic forces.
