I agree. I've been trying to find ways to describe the essence of the unorthodoxy you mention in words folk understand without needing to become physicists or Engineers.
But so far I haven't found a way to do that.
Everyone needs to understand a little about how energy really works, to understand why it is the thing behind the devaluation of currency, and capital, that we are seeing.
With donated energy being put to use, which accumulates as valuable physical product added to Earth capital, which is not formally recognised and acknowledged by issue of money representing it, the accumulating product is the thing with growing utility, rather than money, thus money has to devalue, as long as it is not representing the valuable product being added.
What we maybe missed previously, maybe even somewhat intentionally, is the utility and function of money to transport energy.
When money is used less efficiently to do that, then its value drops in markets.
The more energy we put to use without formally issuing money representing it, the less efficiently money transports energy, therefore the money is devaluing.
After all, every day, every developed country puts tens of GigaJoules per second, of solar product into use. It has necessarily ramped up from near zero in about twenty years.
That is an awful lot of unmonetised Joules.
The nature of the effects of the widening relationship between money, and the physical thing of value, seen as inflation, is inverse, and chaotically non-linear, in exactly the same way as the relationship between the environmental disasters we see and the rising global temperature.
In fact, we see the two going more or less hand-in-hand.
When a country like Pakistan goes without aid in response to being hit by catastrophic flooding, for example, from countries who really should be supplying aid to stricken people there, the value of our currencies is hit. If we issued the currency they need, with no requirement to repay in any way, it would not only be seen as the right thing to do, by everyone trading in money markets, it would also be backed by actual physical product, and best of all, would demonstrate to Pakistan what they need to do technically with at least some of the issued money, to implement their own solar hydrogen infrastructure, to become energy secure, whilst no longer contributing to pollution.
The same principal applies to all individuals and communities both within our own countries, and outside. Money should be being issued to all people, to enable them to help themselves / ourselves, to put in the required solar hydrogen infrastructure in all communities.
consolidation of this will happen very quickly, as the proportion of energy we put to use, relative to others, increases rapidly, from around 10%, as it is now, to 100%+.
Tens of GigaJoules per second in every country moves to hundreds of GigaJoules per second, which still must be continually monetised, and we might recognise this whole process of humanity ramping up on solar power, as something like an engine, which has been in process of being built for thousands of years, but has only just got started, or like a plant, which just sprouted its first leaves, or like a baby just born from womb or egg, moving from the limited energy of its host, to the unlimited energy of its environment.
That is how I see it.
It would be incredibly exciting, if we didn't know that there is a seemingly unmovable barrier in the way, preventing it from happening; human nature.
As a species we seem to have both cannibalistic and suicidal chacteristics which dominate all else.
I don't know how to get round that one, other than to keep chipping, to at least propagate awareness, that there is a simple way out of what can seem like a dead end, if we didn't know any better.
