If you are interested in my theory, outlined in the MANIFESTO OF THE NEW ECONOMIC THEORY then I can write a book or an article for your order to be published in your journal.
"The great mistake of modern economic theory is that consequence is taken for cause .This misconception is based on the theory of Keynes, and therefore leads to absurd conclusions.
Usually when
they want to describe the principle underlying the Keynesian theory they describe
a society in which all citizens produce quality and goods on demand, but
everybody is in trouble, because due to the lack of money no one can buy this
product .Now, if we give one of them $ 100 and he will buy boots for it, then the GDP will increase by $
100.Then a shoemaker will buy a tool from a blacksmith for the same money, and
GDP will increase by$ 200 now. A blacksmith will buy grain, etc..Thus, the $ 100 will not only bring happiness to all, but will
also lead to an infinite growth of GDP .Absurd.
Of course,
there is a confusion here .Actually a purely operational problem is described
here where you can not exchange the
goods, otherwise than through cash, but nobody has the banknotes. However, this
situation is a very theoretical one. If there is a highly demanded product,
people will find a way to exchange it, especially in the current conditions of
diversity of the payments and settlements.
To somehow
mitigate the absurdity of the above situation, when $ 100 leads to an infinite
increase in GDP, the followers of Keynes, suggest that this case – the ultimate
case. And that in fact the GDP will not grow indefinitely because (and only
because) a shoemaker and a blacksmith will not buy anything for all the money, and some of that money will be obligatory
deposited. For these followers, "not-eating" all resources is a
negative phenomenon. It is hard to imagine a more devastating statement for the
economy. So it is no surprising that the
world brought up on Keynesian theory is vulnerable to economic crises.
"Eating
away" money being poured into the economy leads to a temporary increase in
GDP, but the entropy itself is not growing, but it is only redistributed. And so when the
economy makes sure that it is "empty" money, everything will return to
even worse state, because the crisis did not stop. To prevent it, it is
necessary to increase the entropy, and for this one needs money, which society can invest, the money
that the shoemaker and the blacksmith deposited . It is this money that will bring freedom of choice and
opportunity. Hence such an accumulation of funds is a positive factor . But a modern
economic theory, which absorbed incorrect postulates of Keynes, continues to lead the national economy
to the wrong direction, focusing on GDP as the main criterion and flooding the
economy with "empty" money.
Economic
growth is accompanied by an increase in GDP, but the cause is the change in
entropy, change in GDP - a consequence. An attempt to replace cause and consequence
leads to a primitive fetishism. As a savage imitates thunder to cause rain, and
the government stimulates the demand, hoping to trigger economic growth.
I think it
would be more useful to repeat the words of Keynes's notion that in a crisis a
state should behave as "the last big spender." Not the investor, not the creator, not an
entrepreneur - a spender. Maybe this phrase very clearly expressing the
Keynesian approach would worry politicians and society, and would give rise to
doubts about the strength of this theory."
