Sickly Ideas in the Minds of US Economic Workers

The US economy, which is a free market, has a bartering subsystem and a laissez-faire subsystem. The laissez-faire system uses money and is thus operated much like the Monopoly game children play. In Monopoly, the bank gives an equal amount of money to the players, the play begins, a player wins, and the game ends. In a laissez-faire economy, banks and jobs give money to the players, who seek the given money to satisfy their wants, needs, desires, greed happiness, etc.

The laissez-faire economy has no single winner, as Monopoly has. Instead, it has winners and losers. The winners become rich and can satisfy many wants whereas the losers are poor and cannot even satisfy many needs. Most winners rationalize their riches saying, ‘This is the way it works.’ Interestingly, all people in the US economy have many sickly ideas because a laissez-faire economy is highly inconsistent with God. As Jesus Christ teaches at Mark 7:23, sickly ideas defile us. These sickly ideas are causing many social and immigrant problems.

The US economy is producing many sickly ideas that are imbedded in the national economic language. A few examples of imbedded sickly ideas are as follows: (1) land-owning is necessary; (2) money supply must be governed by inflation and unemployment, and (3) unemployment is thus necessary, and (4) full-employment is not possible. The laissez-faire economy is inconsistent with God simply because God created all men equal. Under God, there cannot be economic winners and losers. Clearly, the US government must mix more socialism into the US democracy. For instance, more national economic goals are needed.
