Jared, really? I picture you as being deeply intoxicated when you write pieces such as this. Sadly, in an industrial world of 8+ billion people, there are at least 5.5 billion who aren’t Christians, and likely many or most aren’t interested in becoming Christians. Also, based on a review of the history of Christianity leading to the present, most of the people identifying as Christians do not seem to share your enthusiasm for the theoretical financial system that you describe.
A capitalist hall of fame would include mostly past and current Christians, since the historical time frame and geographical spread of capitalism tracks the protestant reformation movement almost exactly.
Your utopian visions may someday be realized on earth, but it’s never going to happen unless Jesus, himself, rises again and demonstrates super powers adequate to convert essentially the the entire world population to the form of Christianity that you dream of, because right now there are precious few people with extremely limited resources to pull off the social and economic transformation for which you pray.
I apologize for writing this because I know that it offends you and your devoted followers. However, some of us 5.5 billion souls who aren’t on board with worshipping Jesus really take offense at the solutions that proselytizing Christians like you propose.
Can you explain to me what you mean by option 2 on who would front loans?
I’m thinking you’re saying let everyone create money out of thin air, but that doesn’t seem sensible to me. How could I loan another person money that doesn’t exist?
You said;
“Governments can let money-creation be free market again, so anyone can create money and compete on the open market to retain their value.”

Just about everything else you’re saying makes a ton of sense to me!
