»The purpose
of the economy is human welfare.«
– Gregor Gysi
German politician (Die Linke left-wing party)
Our hitherto existing monetary and economic
systems have not served the good of humans; on the contrary, they harm
everybody and benefit nobody. Even though the inhabitants of the rich
industrialised countries have great advantages over people in poor countries,
these benefits are only of short duration. What is the use of a beautiful house
and an expensive car when we humans are in the process of destroying ourselves?
The first advantages of the Natural Economy of
Life already suffice to prove that it benefits everybody and harms nobody. Its
further advantages will confirm this argument even more. In principle, this is
no wonder since we work together with nature and not against her.
Every person without exception has the right to
a life in human dignity. That is the minimum that must be provided by an
economy which claims to serve the good of human beings. The next few sections
describe how this right can be realised.
