JCT: Don't get your shorts in an uproar. 23 years ago I got my
degree in electrical engineering from Carleton. Please detail of any
statements I may have made that my last 20 years specializing in
banking systems engineering were at Carleton.
All you have to do is check my Advanced Banking Systems
Engineering Analysis at http://turmelpress.com/bankmath.htm
to verify that I have the most advanced education in banking systems
in the world. That's if you have sufficient engineering background to
stay with me though many non-engineers have managed to stay with the
algebra quite easily.
You certainly have a no-class way to putting things but I'm sure
you can't find any statement of mine that I received my banking
systems engineering at Carleton. Still, I doubt you have the class to
apologize for falsely calling me a liar.
Anytime you wish to wish to challenge my qualitative engineering
credentials in banking, I'll be ready to take you more seriously
unless all you want to is rant.
And finally, if engineers do not challenge the incompetents
running the money system, who else can be expected to try?

JCT: For someone who has lurked silently in the woodwork and who
has not ever contributed one iota nor ever challenged me in debate, is
name-calling the best you can do? Just because you can't see that the
work of a Tekton like Jesus deserves to be associated with the work of
other engineers in the sci.engr newsgroup is your failing, not ours.

JCT: I'm sure many economists do think this way no matter how
many LETS, Timedollar, or Hour systems are successfully in operation
around the world. You wouldn't be economists is you looked honestly at
empirical evidence which contradicts your religious financial beliefs.
By the way, I've not heard you challenge my math yet and it's very
rare that an economists ever resorts to math to challenge my math
anyway. The standard way of challenging my math is to do as you have
done, call it names and try to laugh at it. What you don't realize is
that you're just another in a whole list of people who have resorted
to these tactics only to be challenged and then to eventually fade
away in defeat.

JCT: Some people may wish to liken the interest-free LETS local
currency systems now operating all around the world as some impossible
dream but somehow, the very fact that they do operate successfully
seems to indicate that you may be wrong. Maybe you should contact
people using these local currencies and inform them that they can't be
working as they are. And they can take the word of an expert like you
if they wish to continue believing their senses.

>Despite the biblical "quotations" I can't understand the morality of

>it is better to simply give rather than lend?
JCT: I'm not disagreeing with you. When Thomas quoted Christ, he
did say: "If you have money to lend, lend it without any interest. But
rather give it to one from whom you won't get it back." So I'm aware
that when there are poor, you should give it to them. Yet, I believe
there are extra advantages to lending without interest. Otherwise,
Isaiah 55 would not have said "You who are hungry and have no money,
come, buy and eat." He would have said "Come and eat for free."
There's nothing wrong with expecting to be repaid.
>Examples are:
>1) If a man has no income, give him work and pay him a wage;
JCT: LETS allows him to work and earn a wage by allowing him to
spend his IOUs into circulation and then work for them.
>2) If a man has no skill, give him free education and training
JCT: I see no reason why he should not pay back the time of the
teachers who have spend time on him. If a tutor spends 40 hours on his
education and thusly allows him to be productive, is there any reason
that he should not return those 40 hours of service to the teacher? If
we anticipate that he will become productive,
>3) If a man is sick, give him free health-care.
JCT: Again, why shouldn't the doctor not expect that once the man
has been cured, he will return the time to the doctor which the doctor
spent on him.
>4) Provide support for all people 'at-risk'.
JCT: Isaiah and LETS provide for all people "at-risk," the only
difference is that there is the hope that those people eventually come
on line and return the credits to the system that the system provided
while they needed it.
>5) Give surplus food away rather than hoard it.
JCT: LETS allows the food to be bought rather than hoarded while
at the same time maximizing its production and saving.
>All of these are basic welfare economics. Why would interest free
>loans be better? Geoff
JCT: Right now, governments either loan-shark it to you or give
it to you after you've gone broke. Lending without interest is the
middle ground which maintains the incentive to work through and a debt
which the recipient wishes to honor while at the same time maximizing
his chances of success.
Giving it away would also reduce the stimulus to production which
financial reward offers to the majority of people. I doubt the
majority would work their maximum if they did not profit extra by
that extra work. That's why giving away their surplus provides less
incentive to maximization of production that lending out their
surplus offers.
And besides, though giving it the poor is supposed to be best, it
would never be acceptable to economists while lending it should be
more, though still quite difficulty, acceptable to them. You cannot
imagine the trouble I've had getting economists to understand how
society would be better off if surpluses were loaned to the poor by
the rich who can't use it. I can't even imagine trying to get these
people trained in the science of greed to understand giving surpluses
away and wouldn't want to try.

JCT: So Attilio, the issue is whether you trust in the security
offered by your neighbors IOUs or if you trust in the security offered
by the interest from your bank account.
I think history has shown that the poverty engendered among your
neighbors by the usury is overwhelmingly destructive making the choice
actually quite simple. It's just that lending without interest goes
against all the brain-washing that we've been exposed to.

JCT: Well put because the money system does accomplish a
sophisticated kind of brain-washing we're all exposed to almost from
the moment we are first exposed to it.
When you're only a few years old and your daddy tells you that
you can't have that ice-cream-cone you want because he can't spare the
dime, or you see how he struggles and fights to get some of this
precious material which can be changed into all forms of assets, and
you then are exposed to television, novels and life in general where
the greatest atrocities are explained by the simple statement "I did
it for the money," it's not hard to believe that money conditions
our thinking.
Mohammed says mankind has been driven mad as if by the touch of
Satan while Christ said that when it came to interest, they would
forever be hearing without hearing and seeing without seeing or
understanding. In a world where money has been kept in short supply
and where people believe that it's value is based on its short supply,
parting with this security for life-support without some kind of
reward seems illogical. Thus, becoming a world where money is not kept
in short supply will cause a paradigm shift which I liken to the game
of musical chairs.
Everyone who plays musical chairs knows that when there are
insufficient chairs for all to survive, it is optimal strategy to
think only of oneself. With a lot at stake, the idea of helping
someone else up onto their chair would seem rather insane. People
might even cheat, push, shove, elbow to get a seat and survive. This
death-gamble is identical to the mort-gage with money game. Thus,
lending someone some of your life-support tickets in a world where
they are kept in short supply seems quite as insane without some kind
of compensation for the real risk to your own life-support.
Yet, if a chair were to be added to the game so that there were
enough chairs for all to survive, there would then be a paradigm shift
as there is now no need to cheat, push, shove elbow to survive when
they realize all do survive and it has now become a game to win the
biggest chair, not to survive. The same applies in an interest-free
world. Now that life-support tickets are no longer kept in short
supply, rationalizing all sorts of crime with the alibi "I needed the
money" would now seems quite insane.
So, yes, the money system has brainwashed all of us and it takes
a superior and minority intellect to defeat it. And the more one has
studied the alibi pretext of Economics, the more one's brains have
been scrambled and the more difficult it is to beat the brainwashing
so that when one has studied Economics enough, it might be almost
impossible to beat the brain-washing at all.
You only have to go over the "Essence of Money" articles at:
http://turmelpress.com/lp.htm where you'll notice how the
fact that loans are not depositors funds are learned and then
forgotten almost instantaneously in economists' brains. Even once they
may have finally ceded that loans are not depositors' funds, you'll
notice that they've forgotten that admission just a few days later.
The greatest use to these kinds of debates are the fact that the
doublethink of economics is exposed for all to see even though the
economists themselves have no idea that they keep contradicting
themselves. So, yes, as Mohammed has stated, there is ample proof that
they have been driven insane by their money beliefs in those articles.
And yet, we know that it is not impossible to beat the brain-
washing though I must point out that even LETSers who have a perfect
interest-free model to use and study remain just as fooled by the big
world-wide money system and cannot see the big picture of a Global
LETS just like people who don't understand LETS also cannot.
The final point is that the conditioning is so pervasive and
effective that my explanations actually strike at their cognitive
dissonance so that not only can they always reject the truth but they
can actually be offended at hearing it and will most often demand that
I stop stating it. Hearing the truth about money and usury often
enrages many readers to the point where they cannot resist reading it
though the continually demand that I quit writing it.
My posts were recently censored from the econ-lets listserv so
that we can see that the conditioning affects LETSers as completely as
it affects non-LETSers.
So trust your philosophical attraction to LETS since it does make
sense and we (the collective we of wage slaves to the capitalistic
profit system) should do it. All we have to do is beat the
conditioning that makes people such as James Rogers above that it
can't be done no matter how successfully it is being done.
You have to admit that his particular madness is easily seen by
people who understand how LETS works though it's doubtful the madness
can be seen by people who do not understand and are actually just as
financially insane as Rogers himself.

JCT: Six times you scream I lied and I guess that you think if
you rant "liar" often enough, some people might think you've got
something. I've found that the only way to shut up babblers who are
foaming at the mouth is to challenge them to put their money where
their foam is.
Since Carleton does not have a course in banking systems
engineering and since I only started my specialization in banking
systems three years after I graduated from Carleton, I bet Rob Russell
$100 Canadian Dollars that he cannot reproduce any statement of mine
where I claimed to have:
"a B.Eng. Banking Systems from Carleton University."
I find that when I challenge the foamers to put up or shut up,
they usually shut up and fade away and I doubt this foamer should
prove any different.
Sadly, with students like Rob attending my alma mater's
engineering faculty, I can understand why Carleton's reputation has
been so down-graded since I attended a quarter of a century ago.
Some people might think it's an overstatement to say that money
makes people irrational or insane. Yet, I think it's easily shown.
Almost every one has heard the expression of our society "living
beyond our means" as a reason for cut-backs and belt-tightening. Most
people think they understand what it means.
Yet, I would submit that this statement makes no sense in the
real world and can only be argued if the economy is seen through
money-colored, and only an interest-bearing money economy at that, not
an interest-free LETS money economy since LETS faithfully reproduces a
barter economy.
Put yourself in a village 10,000 years in the past and try to
explain to a village elder why citizens should be laid off and
production delayed or destroyed because they are "living beyond their
means." Since it is quite impossible to eat next year's crop, I'm sure
you'll soon realize that the whole concept of living beyond our
physical means is physically impossible and can only be rationalized
when talking about "financial means" and not real physical means."
That mankind has been fooled into believing that physically
possible things are impossible because they are financially
impossible will amuse historians for millennia to come. Prof Quigley
raises the issue in his Tragedy and Hope which will be discussed at
the new listserv called lets@onelist.com.

For those unfamiliar with the LETS interest-free banking system,
much information is available at:
http://turmelpress.com/letssites.htm
A bank of interest-free poker chips will be referred to
regularly as a useful model.
So I have no doubt that future historians will consider most
people living in these last five or six millennia as having been
driven quite money-mad.
You only have to read the discussions on the Essence of Money at
http://turmelpress.com/lp.htm to appreciate how Ph.Ds in
Economics can be made to contradict themselves without ever realizing
the fact.
