Sacred Economics
Interesting perspective. I differ on some points but agree with most of it. I hate calling it "Sacred Economics" as the implications that brings religiously, "Love Based Economics" might be a better term. So many things in religion are justified as being sacred when they truly are not. But then, I am a recovering Bible thumper.

I gotta say ... I like "sacred" economics better :-) But to each his own ....it'll work the same :-)
ReplyDeleteThis resonates with me. Not that everything he says would be implemented but the energy of everyone that is on the same wavelength. How beautiful would that be. Things done for the good of all, something desired by all. How far we have fallen from that mountaintop. But we are starting to see that, there is a better way. This one didn't work. To live in a world where sanity rules...
ReplyDeleteThanks for passing this along AK. Glad it resonated with you.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite lines:
"You have to find something that was once nature, and make it into a good... You have to find something that people once got for free, or did for themselves (or each other) and take them away and sell it back to them somehow."
"So, we are falling in love with the Earth, that's one part in our transition to adulthood."
I have felt as Charles has his entire life. A collective sense of wrong, that things just AREN'T RIGHT.
It appears as though I have kindred spirits out there :)
Many of us have had some innate feeling things were not right. Many justify why this is so and do their best. Some try and change this either through love or hate.
