Here is another reason / scenario for you; until now, there has never been any method, or reason to incorporate the energy of the sun in the world economy.
Energy in capital is Joules, whereas energy from the sun is Joules per second.
But now that we are at least partially solar powered, we are receiving a quantity of Joules per second from the sun.
The Austrian Economics ideal of all produce being reflected by issue of money is not being honored, at least not explicitly, otherwise every Joule received should be reflected by the creation of money.
Since those Joules are received for free, the money created should be issued to all, including those perceived as not contributing any labour, as zero labour is involved in collection of the energy of the sun.
That justifies the issue of continuous stimulus, but the consequence of it is that all capital, including gold is devalued.
Inflation is only inflation from the point of view of capital, rather than the energy from the sun.
For money to honestly and fairly represent the energy being received from the sun, it has to be issued as stimulus, with each note or token representing a known, or market determined number of Joules.
It is only a matter of time until this is realised, that a trick is being played with capital, somehow we are tricked into believing it is more valuable than the energy of the sun, but of course it isn’t, the energy of the sun created everything we know and is constantly added to the Earth for free.
Sorting that out by creating hydrogen fuel from solar energy, which replaces fossil fuels, with no pollution in either its creation, or consumption, also appears to be the only real solution to the global environmental problem.
Because the inflation appears unstoppable now, it looks like that is where we are headed, whether we like it or not. For sure when hundreds of millions of people with no savings begin to experience poverty, they will demand free money, and it will be given, sealing the fate of capital. That will be the technical end of capitalism, mathematically.
From the point of view of those with savings, that obviously doesn’t look or sound good.
But from the point view of the majority of people, who don’t have any significant savings, or are even in poverty now, it won’t look bad at all, I think.
Bitcoin is a special case, it is actually more than capital, as outlined in the story about the Bitcoin Kardashev Hinge.
