In 2020, America faces BIG PROBLEMS ... and many are rooted in our mismanagement of our MONEY as the OBJECTIFICATION of our CIVIL RIGHTS.

We sense that the religious faiths, civil institutions and business practices we have relied on to make law and preserve order throughout human history have failed as social disintegration and a global [even cosmic] revenge by nature becomes more visible by the day. Our response has predominantly been a toxic mixture of trying to make our angry voices heard and prostrating our greedy and fearful souls before fewer and fewer ELITES to whom we give more and more power in desperate hope they will find BIG SOLUTIONS … as we continue to disregard the too long neglected universe of “small things” on which social and environmental justice depend.

MACRO2020 is a website dedicated to educating and motivating the People about the vital role money must play in reforming and integrating religion, civics and business which, working together, can accomplish the BIG things that need to be done. The People must unite in a demand to restore the now-crumbling foundational pillar on which [as we hope to show] all social and environmental justice depends ... HONEST MONEY ... and to once again revere, protect and use it as one of Americans’ ORIGINAL CIVIL RIGHTS set forth in the Bible, the Constitution and Common Sense as an essential part of wisdom and fairness alongside just “Weights & Measures”:

• “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquillity, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. … The Congress shall have Power ... To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures; To provide for the Punishment of counterfeiting the Securities and current Coin of the United States.” - United States Constitution, Preamble; Article 1, Section 8, Clauses 1,5-6

Of course, diagnosing and treating the entrenched and pervasive financial cancer which our monetary practices have become will not be easy or painless. Its myriad symptoms in the body politic and the environment are both confusing and divisive in an age when we compartmentalize our lives before delegating our decisions to experts who lack a thorough contextual appreciation for or understanding of wider reality. Addressing this disease will require nothing less than the good faith, civil cooperation and everyday practice of the large majority of “the People” as individuals and as members of the sociological orders of functionaries [from families, churches, businesses, cities and states to national and multinational constitutions and conventions] which intelligently and morally channel our powers to effectively compose and sustain our republics. The partisan forces profiting from monetary subversion will oppose the reform of our money, the oldest and most important of our social media. And never forget that they are both powerful and global ... permeating all aspects of our individual and common lives. But in the end, they will slink away like scolded dogs in the face of their masters: the People of the Republics of the world.

Please read more about this vital effort on the accompanying web pages and consider how you and the organizations you look to for social and environmental justice can join the effort. The future generations of America and the world hang in the balance. If we fail now, the perversion of our money and the tragic consequences that must follow it will only grow.
