Our task


Here's how it works: A man lives for a while, and then dies. A nation lives for a while, and then dies. A civilization lives for a while, and then dies.

If you want your civilization to live, not die on your watch, then economics must be nothing more or less than the effort to get the right answer.

The right answer does not depend on what you or I want. It depends on what the economy wants and how the economy works. Our task is to understand these.

This task has never been recognized as important by any civilization, ever.
