DISCOVERING THE LEMONS!

O.K I think by now you get it. The Cure is the Cause we need to do things differently, but where do we begin? Are there some elements in our formula that are undesirable? Are there certain economic principles that have been going on for thousands of years or more? The same certain principles we still use today? Some common denominators that may be responsible for the economic woes we face. Yes there are, however this now leaves us with some good news and some bad news. The bad new is mankind is a creature of habit and usually resists or is slow to change. The good news is mankind is also a being endowed with logic, reason and common sense.

Using our logic, reason, common sense and powers of observation, are there some historical references to things from which we can draw some conclusions? My observation goes as far back as the history of Rome? We know that there were coins with Caesar's inscription (limited currency). We also know that Joseph and Mary went to Bethlehem to pay their taxes. This leaves two distinct common economic denominators that have existed for at least 2,000 years and one very big one that is only about 400 years old ... the national bank and fractional reserves. Can you add to this list? If so please email lemons@mybetterway.com

Let us now examine the effects of these common denominators, or what I like to call the lemons in the cherry pie of prosperity. For this it seems is the problem. We keep trying to produce a cherry pie of prosperity by using not cherries, but lemons as our main ingredient. Obviously as long as we continue to use lemons as our main ingredient, the best we can hope to bake is a lemon pie with some cherry flavoring, but never a real cherry pie.
