Two Experts on Binary Economics talk w/ Posr & Paula Gloria

Norman Kurland and Robert Ashford talk to Posr and Paula Gloria on Binary Economics.

Professor Robert Ashford has been a guest many times on her show and can be seen on her YouTube playlist for Binary Economics (along with his extensive credentials)

Mr. Kurland is a lawyer-economist, pioneer of employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs) and a leading global advocate for the Just Third Way, a post-scarcity development model that transcends both capitalism and socialism by combining free markets with the democratization of economic power and capital ownership. He serves as President of the all-volunteer Center for Economic and Social Justice (CESJ), a non-profit think tank headquartered in Arlington, Virginia that he co-founded with Fr. William Ferree and other economic and social justice advocates in 1984. Mr. Kurland also founded and heads Equity Expansion International, Inc., an investment banking firm for the have-nots, which implements Just Third Way strategies around the world to turn non-owners into owners. He is a co-founder of Global Justice Movement.org (based in Canada) and the American Revolutionary Party (US) launched in April 2005. He has taught binary economics and binary policy reforms in privatization seminars at the International Law Institute in Washington, D.C. In 1985, President Reagan appointed Mr. Kurland as deputy chairman of the bipartisan Presidential Task Force on Project Economic Justice, to promote economic democratization through ESOP reforms in Central America and the Caribbean.
He was a close colleague for eleven years of Louis O. Kelso, author of binary economics and inventor of the ESOP. With Kelso, Kurland co-founded the Institute for the Study of Economic Systems. He later became Washington Counsel for Kelsos investment banking firm. Collaborating with Kelso, Kurland authored and lobbied the first and subsequent ESOP legislative initiatives in the U.S. Congress. He is the principal architect of several model ESOPs and legal systems for expanding ownership, as well as: the first ESOP and worker shareholders association in the developing world at the Alexandria Tire Company in Egypt; the Capital Homestead Act (a comprehensive package of national monetary and tax reforms); the Community Investment Corporation/Citizens Land Cooperative (a vehicle for enabling community residents to share land ownership and profits); the Homeowners Equity Corporation (a vehicle for turning renters into owners on homes in foreclosure); and Justice-Based Management (a system for applying Kelsonian principles of economic justice for building a participatory ownership culture at the workplaces of business corporations).
Business Week described Kurland as the resident philosopher of ESOP in the capital. He was the recipient of CESJs first Kelso-Ferree Lifetime Achievement Award, an honor he shares with Senator Russell Long, the legendary champion of ESOP on Capitol Hill. Mr. Kurland has authored numerous articles on the Just Third Way, binary economics, capital homesteading and related concepts for universalizing access to capital ownership. He was a contributing author to the 1994 compendium Curing World Poverty: The New Role of Property (John H. Miller, ed., Social Justice Review), and was the principal author of CESJs comprehensive economic reform agenda, Capital Homesteading for Every Citizen: A Just Free Market Solution for Saving Social Security (Economic Justice Media, 2005).
Before joining Kelso, Mr. Kurland was director of planning of the Citizens Crusade Against Poverty, a national coalition headed by the labor statesman Walter Reuther. Before that Mr. Kurland, as a Federal government lawyer, became deeply involved as a civil rights investigator in the Mississippi one-person, one-vote movement and later with the core group shaping economic empowerment initiatives in President Johnsons War on Poverty. He came to Washington in December 1959 after receiving a Doctor of Laws degree from the University of Chicago, where he studied law and economics and was awarded the Walter Wheeler Cook Prize for Legislative Drafting, following five years as an officer on flying status in the U.S. Air Force

Robert, with all due respect, and I do respect what you know, I think you were a little racist even if you didn't intend to. I'm not black but I've grown up with my stepfather which was black, and I'm very sensible to how they perceive certain terms coming from whites. Slavery is mostly psychological, black men were strong and high numbered, they could easily be free. The slave business was 90% psychological, and a lot of its after effects still exist, so we have to be careful with that.

Binary economics sounds very close to distributism and mutualism if your familiar with them.
