Score-Up Economics

Post by Bill Wiltrack »

.




The absurdity and complete failure of trickle-down economics in America has become glaringly obvious, even to the most wooden of living Americans today.

Hell, trickle-down economics isn't even a thing. It's not real. Not taught in universities, not found in economic textbooks.



So, we find ourselves with boatloads of money parked in the yachts & treasury bond safes of the wealthiest of the wealthiest 1% & the ultra-wealthy .001%...and each second they are given more & more & more tax free, morality free money.

While literally ALL individual Americans, the ENTIRE rest of us, have no actual part of the infused trillions upon trillions of new dollars that are continually heaped into the overall balance sheet of American history. Why?

Trickle-down economics doesn't work. Money doesn't trickle down.

Money values-up.

Money can create and define value as money passes UP the food chain.

NOT the other way around.




Money only works, a vibrant economic system only works, international governance only works if value is created from the bottom-up. Period.


Reality shows us that the poor have a higher marginal propensity to consume, so wealth spreads faster and farther if you give it to the poor guy initially.

And by poor I mean the 99% of us, the REAL America.



Reality shows us that Democracy and value spread faster and farther if you give it to the poor guy initially.


WE need to implement Score-Up Economic policies ASAP.




We need guaranteed standard of living supports for ALL Americans.

That's right. We need to infuse the stream of trillions of completely fiat money directly into our own veins.

WE need to feel that hit of inflation, that bump of relief, that black tar of belief.

The world is literally in a free-fall spiraling death dance with the demon deflation.


Right now we have to pick our poison and right now we need to have more money chasing more goods.

Value Score-Up Economic policies.

I really like the sound of Democratic Socialism.

Democratic socialism is a political ideology advocating a democratic political system alongside a socialist economic system, involving a combination of political democracy with social ownership of the means of production.

Sometimes used synonymously with "socialism", the adjective "democratic" is added to denote a system of political democracy similar to that found in existing Western societies, thus distinguishing democratic socialism from the Marxist–Leninist brand of socialism.



*BEST of both worlds!


THANK YOU for giving me the opportunity
to look this term up again. Have a nice day

Please, don't try to gussy up the word "socialism" by adding the word "democratic."

You do realize that the socialistic viewpoint that Marx imagined is an overall view of a possible maturity of the economic system of capitalism, that is actually coming to fruition right now, and Democratic Socialism is a political term limited to a very specific form of democracy.

They are two very different things.

...because, you know, some people do not have the ability to differentiate between the two.

Exactly what form of democracy would that be, pray tell?

Why not the ideas from Friedrich A. Hayek?! Check him out, defending classical liberalism, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedrich_Hayek! No tolerance of crime inside economics, but Thomas Piketty's Socialism? Let's see! :D

Hayek - is that socialism for the rich and the free market for the workers?

Heh-heh, something like that! :wink: Let's face it, the movers and shakers are those who are the most rich.
