"We are called to play the good Samaritan on life's roadside; but that will be only an initial act. One day we must come to see that the whole Jericho Road must be transformed so that men and women will not be constantly beaten and robbed as they make their journey on life's highway. True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar. It comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring." --Martin Luther King
Tossing a coin to a beggar does not solve a social problem. The edifice is a social structure that needs restructuring. That exactly is what I seek in my struggle to understand the current monetary system which is the heart of the economic system. The foundation of what money is that facilitates what money does in its application to economics.
That is what this blog is all about. Not the money but the structuring of money as a social media object to serve our social decision making objectives, private and public.
