V - Eco 1. Introduction
Economics is integral part of Quality living.
Economic policies are Politic dependant. and Politic is people dependant. World Bank & WTO decide for us – the people.
No people, no economics.
History of economics is not Equality economics.
Present Economics create inequality in Humans. Creating value in Humans is Economics and not for the products and services.
Vethathirian Economics provide an insight to this effect of Economic Equality. Prof. Dr. Madhavan BIST - Centre for Holistic Development / Bangalore 0 98860 67232

V - Eco 2. Origin of Economics
Economy started since Man started living.
Man had the unique ability to think and hence converted nature to his comforts and conveniences.
Food is the first product produced by man on land. Living started around the land of production.
Later came Houses, community & villages etc.
Production in abundance created the needs for storage and distribution. The seed for Economy was sown here.

V - Eco 2. Origin of Economics

(contd..)


Storage & Distribution require skills of Trade; The trader is born now to help / assist the production - the farmer.
This equally applies to other production people like Masons who built houses and weavers who produced clothes.
Among the villages the distribution took place for exchange of goods or services. Later switched over to common exchange of currency.
The produce and property were looted by Greedy or Lazy people necessitating the need for a strong men as security. They were offered the produce or currency as compensation. Prof. Dr. Madhavan BIST - Centre for Holistic Development / Bangalore 0 98860 67232

V - Eco 2. Origin of Economics (contd..)
The strong men not only guarded the produce & property, they also settled the village disputes by sheer of their force. Thus they gained respect of village producers and became the village head. This is the beginning of a King.
The King now starts demanding respect and a good share in the produce. This has become later known as taxes. To pay tax and to retain a good margin the traders start fleecing the production people creating poverty and inequality (Rich / Poor)among humans.
The one who produce becomes poorer and poorer as against the one who trades and protects becomes richer and richer. This is economy.
When the economy is good, is good for the rich. When the economy is bad, is bad for the poor. Prof. Dr. Madhavan BIST - Centre for Holistic Development / Bangalore 0 98860 67232

V - Eco 3. Evolution of Economics
Production is the basis for economy.
Production is made by Intellectual and Industrious people.
The produce is exchanged for notional Money value. And further traded for increased money value depending upon the market.
Now money has more value than work. Moneyed person becomes more valuable than working person.
Making more & more money with less & less of work becomes order of the day. The one who earns more is respected than the one who works more.
The inequality economic illness has become a disease and now a chronic one leading to a fatal disaster to mankind. Prof. Dr. Madhavan BIST - Centre for Holistic Development / Bangalore 0 98860 67232

V - Eco 3. Evolution of Economics (contd..)
We are now at the cross roads. Living Humans Vs. Notional Money. Choose the one that will leave this world a better place for our grand children to live.
Being Competitive has become more important than being Compassionate
Two “isams” – Capital / Social are struggling to give the mankind the best quality life. The power politics is under utter confusion taking the world for short term gains loosing out on the long-term benefits.
Look how the world economy suffer a set back on instances like – 9/11, SARS epidemic, Srilankan problems, Terrorism attacks etc.
Vethathirian solution – One World, One Government and One Economy; One citizenship and one currency. Prof. Dr. Madhavan BIST - Centre for Holistic Development / Bangalore 0 98860 67232

V - Eco 4. Economic Equality
True economics is not man made. 90% of its contribution is made by the mother Nature. We do not give her, her share of profits. On the other hand we leave her high and dry. (Ozone depletion, Environmental Pollution)
The remaining 10% is of course man made – who is also natures gift.
We need equality (among nature and people) to share the wealth and not amassing wealth in the hands of a few Business / Politico / Religious heads.
Without equality in economics, the dream of world peace is a mirage.

V - Eco 5. Summary
Economy provider is Mother nature that includes all people of the World.
Residences for living, Lands for cultivation, Factories for production and Commerce for trading must be an cooperative venture owned by all. Rest can be privatized for creative advancement of growth.
Money should not make money. Only hard productive work to earn better value than governance work.
People are the most valuable assets and have a right to live and not available for exploitation among countries.
One world government, One world economy, one world citizenship and one currency is a solution for World peace and any alternative is only leading to killing among people of different nations and ideologies. Prof. Dr. Madhavan BIST - Centre for Holistic Development / Bangalore 0 98860 67232
