Title:
Proposed new metric: the Perpetual Debt
Level
Abstract
It is my contention that a critical metric in economics is missing. I call it the
Perpetual Debt Level. This is the amount of bank credit money in circulation that
is not available on time nor free of any other debt, to extinguish the debt to a bank
that created it. This creates a borrow from Peter to pay Paul and vice versa
Perpetual Debt situation in which the amount of the principal involved can never
shrink and the timing of its delivery can never slow down without causing
mathematically inevitable defaults. Therefore, to avoid such defaults, it is, in
practice, necessary to maintain a growth of the money supply at all times. (1) I
further claim that there is no escape from this destructive arithmetic problem
within the concept of money as a quantity of a thing-in-itself, and especially
within the current practice of money created as a debt-of-itself. The only remedy is
radical, a total transformation of our concept of money.
