Our Goal: Propose as soon as possible an economy after the inevitable financial crash has occurred. That market economy is free of credit. So it will strip the banks from their relevance. Registration for ☮ La Nouvelle Économie. will be closed the day of the crash at the close of the NYSE,... More

  • The Value of a Job is the Same as the Value of Breathing Air. 0 comments

    ☮ La Nouvelle Économie. is the only plausible, if not certain, way to establish a social and economic order. No other System is offered you today. It is certainly not with old recipes that ever worked that we will solve an urgent problem we have never been confronted with.

    What appears today as a catstrophe may well be an extraordinary opportunity for humanity. To seize this opportunity we must act now. The only thing we have to fear is our own discouragement. We have no choice but to confront it if we want to limit the consequence of Chaos.
     

    Principle:

    It is not my purpose to get into the details of ☮ La Nouvelle Économie. here But I want to show one of its strong points and how its Ideology is completely different from what others propose:
     

    The Value of a Job: the Same as the Value of Breathing Air.

    Because Air is in abundance the price of air, although it is vital for us, is $0. Because we have high unemployment rate, demand for Jobs in abundance, the market price of a job is $0. It is hence the uty of society in order to create jobs and consumption powe to pay it a fair price above its market value. We will do that until full employment is reached. ☮ La Nouvelle Économie., a public body, will pay every Private Company participating in it a Marginal Value of Job for any Participating Worker. Those Companies will have to pay a mere 10% of that MVJ on top of it to its Workers (Anything above that is a free contract between the Worker and the Company.) It means that it is for the Society and not the Private Company to pay the Minimum Wage. Because that will be done in every Country the Destructive Competition between workers of different countries will be stopped. Moreover, in that process, we will give a large competitive advantage to manpower over capital goods.

    We must aim at separating those services which are technically social from those which are technically individual. The most important Agenda of ☮ La Nouvelle Économie. relate not to those activities which private individuals are already fulfilling, but to those functions which fall outside the sphere of the individual, to those decisions which are made by no one if the  ☮ La Nouvelle Économie. does not make them. The important thing for ☮ La Nouvelle Économie.  is not to do things which individuals are doing already, and to do them a little better or a little worse; but to do those things which at present are not done at all.



    Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.
