Does anybody here have an interest in macroeconomics?

There is actually a movie called "Zeitgeist" which deals with the global economy and the way capitalism is flawed. The producer, a ninety-something architect, proposes a new way to live based on cooperation—very socialistic. It used to be free on the Internet. There are 2 Zeitgeist sequels, all good.

The real question is where does capitalism actually exist on earth?

The United States is a weird combination of corporatism and socialism that has the net effect of stifling all innovation which is not in the interest of large corporations.  And the regulators are captured by the corporations.

The problem with socialism is that it's confiscation of the fruits of one's labor (denial of free will) where an elite class controls the allocation of the confiscated resources.  Of course, said elite class tends to spend the money in the interest of the elite class, but they throw a few bones to the people to make it look like they are doing something good.

Generally speaking, an elite class is interested in controlling money since that control gives them power over people.  The good people of the world who typically would do the right thing aren't interested in controlling money..  Guess who ends up controlling money in all cases..  So I would argue that no economic model will get us out of the mess we are in without major change.

The way to resolve the economic issues of the world is to have the release of suppressed technologies for free energy and a multitude of other areas, and in that period of innovation, pure capitalism would be the best model where companies compete against each other to produce the best mousetrap at the lowest cost.  These new technologies would reduce a person's daily costs quite significantly and usher in a new era of economic sovereignty.

I agree, but I believe your off on one point. I dont believe corporations, government, or any entity of that order, will he the one to release or use that type or level of technology for the masses.

However in my opinion these technologies, and concepts will be developed and introduced from individuals. I believe revelations, insights, and just the general level of development or consciousness will soon make it impossible to suppress these technologies and concepts. I've had undeveloped thoughts and concepts since I was a child, that recently have started to really develop and will soon begin to come into fruitation. I know it is apart of the coming on change, and an aspect of how we will change the world. Not my plans or concepts or anything specifically do to with me. However the point is that I know I am not the only one, there are many.
