US Total Capital Flows Mix

Created by humans as a mix of God given natural resources, ingenuity, and hard work, capital – especially human – must be continually maintained and replenished if we are to continue to prosper.

Human capital is –
10 to 20 times the value of real capital
100 to 200 times the thin veneer of financial capital
100,000 times the per capita value of gold

Hence the wisdom of fostering the development and maintenance of that capital, human life, from the cradle to the grave, not as a source of exploitation for private profit, but as a solid basis for a high quality of spiritual life for the whole community.
