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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. We owe this life
to all
