Jan I know from previous conversations with you, that you are opposed to solar.

So you set out here to try to prove a point, by diving into some arguable details.

But the bigger picture doesn't change, and solar is scaling up in markets, regardless.

All of nature, except us, is solar powered.

Our economy of all money issued as debt ties us into extracted energy, since every promise to pay is a promise to extract.

Yet we are already about 10% solar powered, at least in the countries we know about, which amounts to tens of GigaJoules per second in every country, and it continues to scale up, because it has to.

Because solar energy is something donated, not something extracted, it generates no pollution, because pollution comes exclusively from labor of extraction.

The only way money can be issued to represent that donated energy received, and put to use, is by issuing money for nothing, to all people.

As long as that is not done, the solar product, still scaling up regardless, is not being reflected by money.

Therefore we see inflation in all money, because it is not representing the most valuable product we can imagine, energy donated to us, free of pollution, and it is the product which is the thing of value, not the money.

So the money will continue to devalue, until it is issued, to reflect the donated energy being received.

That can't be gotten around.

When the money is issued, as it has to be, sooner or later, all people will use at least some of the free money they receive to put in as much solar infrastructure with hydrogen backup as possible, so as to maximise their future financial stipend, thus completing the switch to 100% solar.

Not seeing this, is like not seeing that the shoot of a plant starts to use the energy of the sun for its own growth, as soon as it sprouts leaves.

We are sprouting our human equivalent of those leaves right now.

If we can't think of anything positive to say about that, I would suggest to just sit back, and watch the money continuing to devalue.
