I asked ChatGPT to write an essay on Godley and Cripps sectoral balance equation and its application to present day Globalization. This was the reply in 3 seconds.

 Godley and Cripps sectoral balances equation is an economic model that helps to understand the interplay between different sectors of an economy, specifically the government, the private sector, and the external sector (i.e. trade and capital flows with the rest of the world). The equation states that the sum of the government budget balance, the private sector balance, and the balance of the external sector must be zero. Mathematically, it is represented as:

Government Budget Balance + Private Sector Balance + External Sector Balance = 0

This equation is based on the idea that in a closed economy, any deficit in one sector must be offset by a surplus in another sector. For example, if the government runs a budget deficit, it must be financed by either a private sector surplus or a trade deficit.

The sectoral balances equation has important implications for understanding the impact of globalization on an economy. In the context of present-day globalization, the external sector balance is becoming increasingly important as countries become more integrated into the global economy through trade and capital flows.

One of the key ways in which globalization affects the sectoral balances equation is through its impact on the trade balance. As countries become more integrated into the global economy, they become more dependent on exports and imports. This can lead to a trade deficit if imports exceed exports, which must be financed by either a government budget deficit or a private sector surplus.

Another way in which globalization affects the sectoral balances equation is through its impact on the capital account balance. As countries become more integrated into the global economy, they become more dependent on foreign capital to finance investment. This can lead to a capital account deficit if capital outflows exceed capital inflows, which must be financed by either a government budget deficit or a private sector surplus.

We Overall, the sectoral balances equation provides a useful framework for understanding the impact of globalization on an economy. It highlights the interdependence of different sectors and the need for balance between them in order to maintain economic stability. As globalization continues to increase, it is important for policymakers to take into account the sectoral balances equation in order to ensure that the economy remains balanced and sustainable in the long-term.”

This is copyright material owned by OpenAI. They make no claim as to its accuracy. The program remains open and in Beta. This description of a fundamental macroeconomic equation while stated in a different format than in my book is correct as is the implication for globalization. The private sector surplus referred to implies a liquidity flow out of the working side of the economy to fund the deficits. Not shown here, the full equation allows for further liquidity flow inti investments; thus, furthering a capital divergence and a further enrichment of banks, technology and oligarchs. Such contributes to one of the avenues of self interest that combine in globalism to drain wealth from our Middle Class and negate both personal and economic freedoms.

Utopia

The Devil promises a utopia of worry-free egalitarianism beckoning you to an Orwellian hell of despondency. Its a matter of giving or taking. Work for your family and community supporting the common good, or take from the wealth of those who produce and promise benefits to those who do not and those destroyed by the theft of their own creation.

Election 2024

The November 2024 election presents a significant challenge, transcending the traditional Democrat versus Republican divide. This election will determine the future of the American Republic, Western civilization, and potentially the survival of the human species. Plato suggested that democracies tend to devolve into oligarchies, and we are witnessing that transformation before our eyes. Three major trends in the U.S. threaten to replace our Constitution and representative government with a totalitarian, internationalist, socialistic oligarchy. First, seventy years of Soviet subversion, the Vietnam War, and generations of youth who were taught to reject American institutions have undermined U.S. leadership. Now, Chinese espionage, bribery, and infiltration further contribute to the erosion of America’s traditions of citizenship, enterprise, and prosperity. Second, NGOs in Washington, an entrenched bureaucracy, and organizations like the Trilateral Commission prioritize internation...

Inflation

Many retail investors buy individual stocks with growing confidence in a narket that has a long run. Many fail to appreciate the way the market reflects inflation. Company revenue consists of inflated number,s as does cost and profit, thus the market reflects true inflation which must now be near 100%.
