Optimal
Money
Flow

Positive solutions for our distorted money flow where middle-class workers are unable to buy back the value of the goods and services they produce, resulting in exploding private and public debt.

Optimal Money Flow delivers a powerful new perspective on the intersection of economics and politics. The book introduces professor Marsh’s money flow paradigm, which refutes age-old misconceptions about economic theory and explains how this more accurate understanding of the factors at play can help us effectively address the critical issues we face .

Readers will learn about Marsh’s keystone proposal for a new policy tool for the Federal Reserve Bank that would be much more effective in controlling inflation when the economy overheats, and in stimulating the economy in the face of an economic downturn without raising taxes or adding to the national debt: “My America” personal accounts for every person with a Social Security number that would allow the Fed to offer high savings account interest rates to discourage spending and encourage saving when excessive inflation threatens and the economy overheats.

Alternatively, when the economy falters and begins sliding into a recession, the Fed could offer small loans to individuals and small businesses at low interest rates. Providing funds directly to consumers who are most likely to spend it in periods of high unemployment will be much more effective and less expensive than the traditional “pushing on a string” policy of the Fed buying US Treasury securities in New York financial markets and hoping that some of that money would eventually trickle down to consumers to stimulate the economy.

This book delivers a fresh view of the interconnectedness of the globe and an updated understanding of the underlying economic forces that shape our lives today. Readers from business travelers to university students will rethink their basic assumptions about the nature of economics and the role of government.
