Encounter in Nineveh, a route to personal enlightenment.

For economists, politicians and peace activists . Comments in chapter 7, titled “The Economy”.

This fictional book is a collection of philosophical essays addressing many urgent issues facing mankind today ranging from (1) the need to formulate a “General Theory of Physics” where gravity and quantum physics are brought together. to (2) “Reconciling Creationism with Evolution” through the concept of seeds of life containing the science and technology manual planted on the Y-Chromosome to guide evolution in accordance to the great designer plan. (3) The book spells out a 100 years road map to rid humanity of the evil within to allow the human brain to specialize in the futuristic society where the wellbeing of humanity becomes the guiding principle for all individuals activities.

In chapter 7, Adam Smith covered many issues ranging from the evil of casino banking and how it is corrupting politics to the need for consumer activism to deal with corporate creeds.

One dilemma facing mankind was addressed as follows;

1) mankind. is programmed to be inquisitive and to continuously advance technology

2) modern states advocates full employment as the right to work is the basis of any viable economic system

3) as technology advances there is less need for labour for the same level of consumption, hence demand must be expanded to ensure full employment.

4) such increase in demand could come from pursuing. increase in export or encouraging wasteful consumption at home.

5) the former leads to external imbalances with consequent boom and bust to correct the inevitable imbalances while the latter Needs the depletion of earth resources at a faster rate as technology continue to improve.

Hologram Adam smith proposes reforming human nature to resolve the dilemmas of: (1) ensuring full employment while protecting planet sustainability by avoiding wasteful consumption, (2) avoiding booms and bust, by discouraging the push for export at the expense of other nations employment level.

For such transformation to reform humans’ nature all individuals around the world need to:

(1) have shorter working hours with better working conditions, to enjoying simplicity of living in tune with nature,

(2) be more spiritual and in tune with creator,

(3) be technologically inquisitive to stay mentally active for advancing knowledge for peaceful purposes to improve the quality of life,

(4) be activist for a fairer healthier humanity, above all be compassionate and generous to help the less fortunate in the world at large.

The current alternative will lead to the privileged few who haves end up living in gated compounds to protect themselves from the rest of the population who haves not.

Read the proposed roadmap for the fairer economy.
