Consider Yourself Educated? You Really Should Understand How Money Is Made In This "War".

The last act of a failed government is the looting of the state. For 5 years now the government has been handing "private contractors" $1 Billion tax dollars per week. Your little stock portfolio and retirement plan is going to be worth about as much as Confederate dollars after the Civil War.

J.C. said...: So why do we have a system that is unfair and stupid ?
To support the class/caste system.
That is known as the Price System.
It is the essence of unfairness.
It is a political convention, that was formatted a long time ago.
It uses sentimental aspects of religion/belief systems to turn guilt inward, and maintain control.
Why do we stick with it ?
Technocracy offers an alternative system based on secular human values.

Energy Accounting

Energy certificates are a replacement for the 'concept' of money, as they are an entirely different concept, never the less, energy certificates are a 'book keeping device' according to the Technocracy Study Course, and that seems like the best description also.

This method records the energy used to produce and distribute goods and services consumed by citizens in a Technate.
Energy certificates unlike money, are used in a Technate for accounting purposes only.

Unlike money or currencies, units of energy can not be saved or earned, and will be distributed evenly among a populace.

The amount of energy that could consumed by each each citizen would be calculated by determining the total productive capacity of the technate and dividing it equally, after basic costs of running the infrastructure are considered.
In energy accounting the Technate would use information of natural resources, industrial capacity and citizen's consuming habits to determine how much of any good or service is being consumed by the populace, so that it would balance production with consumption.

The use of 'ENERGY CREDITS' is not described in the design of the Technate. The energy certificate is an energy accounting system only. There is no such use of it as a CREDIT. If one has credit, then Q must follow P and thus one must also have DEBIT. The energy certificate does NOT replace Money. It has NO VALUE at all. It can not be saved, Hoarded, or traded. Its only use in the Technate is as an energy accounting system, and production and distribution accounting of all goods and service produced. The mere attachment to the Energy Certificate to credit, debt, or money i.e. medium of exchange, is totally erroneous and false. PERIOD!

This Technocratic system is referred to as Energy Accounting/Energy certificates. Technocrats point out that energy accounting is not rationing, it is a way to distribute an abundance and track demand. Everyone would receive an equal amount of energy certificates which would far exceed the ability of the consumer to use. Any thing short of that is a Price System.; Jul 4, 2007, 1:25:00 PM

"There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. How often, or on what system, the Thought Police plugged in on any individual wire was guesswork. It was even conceivable that they watched everybody all the time. But at any rate they could plug in your wire whenever they wanted to. You had to live—did live, from habit that became instinct—in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized."

The founders of the American state understood that the proper functioning of a democracy required an educated electorate. It is this understanding that justifies a system of public education and that led slaveholders to resist the spread of literacy among their chattels. But the meaning of "educated" has changed beyond recognition in two hundred years. Reading, writing, and arithmetic are no longer sufficient to decide on public policy. Now we need quantum mechanics and molecular biology. The knowledge required for political rationality, once available to the masses, is now in the possession of a specially educated elite, a situation that creates a series of tensions and contradictions in the operation of representative democracy.

"At present the population of the world is increasing at about 58,000 per diem. War, so far, has had no very great effect on this increase, which continued throughout each of the world wars.. War has hitherto been disappointing in this respect, but perhaps bacteriological war may prove effective. If a Black Death could spread throughout the world once in every generation, survivors could procreate freely without making the world too full. The state of affairs might be unpleasant, but what of it?"
