2015 is proving to be extremely challenging for those still mired in third dimensional economics, debating whether or not capitalism is working. But for the rest of us, new opportunities abound as a new economy quietly bubbles to the surface, preparing to go vertical. Meanwhile, Old Earth economic forces, and old beliefs that others will come to our rescue fade away like the mirage that they were.
Just like we’ve always been the ones we’ve been waiting for, so too, are we the ones who will self-fund the new economy with our own capital, volunteerism, and gifting. This is incredibly good news as we step into our power as sovereign beings acting under our own authority in service of all humanity.
So that this good news doesn’t seem like more pie in the sky, let’s take a look back, and then move forward, to see a glimpse of what our future contains. How you write your future is up to you, but as you will see, the power of a new economy has been quietly at work behind the scenes for a while in surprising way, waiting for the appropriate time to come into the spotlight.
Currently, many countries are hitting peak population, in that fertility rates are below replacement level. Though this should be good news, it’s only good if consumption continues to rise. Growth is the key ingredient to the continued viability of capitalism as a premier economic system.
World peace will forever remain elusive as long as we battle to secure our own survival, blind to the realization that our neighbor’s well-being is vital to our own. As a species, we are interconnected and inseparable from each other and from our ecosystem. The greater truth that no mainstream economist has dared state publicly is that capitalism is not sustainable.
Let’s qualify the following by stating that to build a better world, it must be recognized that there is no singular panacea to handle all human needs except a gift economy, a concept too far-reaching for most of humanity. Regardless, a shift in how we do business is being called for. Are you up for the challenge?
Instead of debating outdated economics, let us come together to forge a new path—one that is practical and truly provides equal opportunity for all, even those desiring to live a simple life. Capitalism served us well, but it’s become evident that working together cooperatively rather than in competition is the foundation for a new economy and peaceful world.
