ref improve date December 2011 Economic stability refers to an absence of excessive fluctuations in the macroeconomy . ref http www.imf.org External np exr facts globstab.htm How the IMF Promotes Global Economic Stability ref An economy with fairly constant GDP output growth and low and stable inflation would be considered economically stable. An economy with frequent large recession s, a pronounced business cycle , very high or variable inflation , or frequent financial crisis financial crises would be considered economically unstable. The United States or Greece is an example of an unstable economy. fact date May 2011 Monetary systems where the money is created as debt,are inherently unstable.The most logical avenue to achieve economic stability would be to change the basis of money creation to a system where there is no fractional reserve banking, and only the gov t can create money.In the United States this would mean ending the Federal Reserve system of private banks creating our money.This would be done by returning the right to create money to the U.S. Treasury.Rep.Dennis Kucinich proposed H.R.2990 THE NEED ACT in 2011 to do just this. The pretense of global bankers like the IMF and Worldbank and Federal Reserve all of whom have long track records of economic instability,being the authoratative source of economic stability is a fallacy that perverts a populations desire for true economic stability.

Orphan date June 2007 att October 2009 Unreferenced date June 2007 When used with modern economic thought, the Buddhist concept of karma can be used to create a unique method of analyzing society. Given that people act rationally and out of self interest, people act according to two influences desires internal and incentives external . Karma can be thought of as a constant flux of these influences and the actions that occur because of them. A karmic seed is an action. That action has consequences which come in the form of incentives. These incentives combined with internal desire provide the cause for more actions. The net worth of all the incentives created by an action determines the value of that action. The idea of economic karma has the potential to synthesize economics with morality. By giving moral worth to the creation of incentives in this way, moral hazard is reduced and the overall level of utility is increased. The moral system produced in this synthesis closely resembles that of two level utilitarianism . Buddhist morals do follow rules but appeal to intuition when there is a conflict or when rules are misleading. DEFAULTSORT Economic Karma Category Heterodox economics ... more details
