Economics is extremely simple and not what we define it to be, but it is the bridge to life or death.

Life creates need and the requirements to live (for humans food, shelter, clothing) creates necessity. What is necessary to live is valuable. Money has no value.

This is true for all of life. However while humans live to eat other forms of life eat to live. The difference is one of perception.

Mankind defines it's perceived needs in excess of what is necessary to live as opposed to other forms of life which instinctively satisfy needs to merely live.

Only mankind lives to thrive beyond the natural predilection of all life to simply survive and propagate. Humans do so while denying other humans by hoarding and creating artificial systems attributing value to otherwise valueless things.

Economics is an ideology that in it's purest sense is true if confined to items of real value- yet as interpreted by mankind is completely false..

Economics is a man made definition of how mankind shares or more accurately doesn't share what all humans need to live.

What is needed by all life is some form of food, shelter and clothing. A bear or a man might live in a cave (shelter), eat fish (food) and require a fur coat (clothing) to protect against a harsh environment.

I'm going to make some simple statements which are the foundation for a new understanding of what we refer to as economics.

In ORDER TO LIVE NEED must EQUAL consumption. AND consumption should not exceed need.

In order to survive production must equal consumption.

Over time consumption in excess of production leads to the extinction of life.

That process has begun.

Economics attaches perceived value to items of no value such as money.

What is valuable is what is NEEDED to live.

The ONLY items of value are food & water, shelter and clothing. Food and water being absolutely essential depending on climate.

To accommodate the exchange and sharing of these items - communication accompanied by symbolism evolved. What is referred to as civilization. Which is that words create ignorance and reduce the ability of human beings to communicate. ACTIONS speak louder than words. Thought which is fiction - destroys truth.

We are what we think we are, rather than what we truly are. Mammals that are self-aware and can think. Nothing more.
