Visitation zones instead of competitiveness

Work for all provides a more stable, state-regulated mixed economy
Work for all is the goal society must have. Brilliant text on the benefits of full employment and its positive side effects.

Sweden's Riksbank's prize in economic science in memory of Alfred Nobel in 2022 suggested that banks have an important role for the social economy even if this can…
Interest rate increases do not bite today's profit-seeking inflation
Interest rate increases do not bite profit-driven inflation. Big capital exploits its strength. Many companies have a monopoly position. They use this to push prices up faster than wages. This is how Big Capital exploits the crisis after Ukraine and the bottleneck effects after Corona. There are now bottlenecks on e.g. economically important semiconductors and other. This means that for the production of certain goods it does not…
Trickle-down economics has reached the end of the road
Comedian Jonathan Pie shows with pinpoint brilliance in the video below how Trickle-down economics with his mantra: "Help the rich! Punish the poor!” not working.
