"And it does start locally, globally, in unison, as equal sovereign individual human beings, continuing our evolution, without disruption, or waiting forever."

It does seem you are assuming a massive cultural shift here.

Consider that predatory lending used to require debt jubilees in order to reset the dynamic and sustain a stable society, way back at the dawn of civilization. The same problem persists today, just that its effects have been ameliorated by unstable states, colonialism and industrialization.

How to you propose informing the entire world that while money functions as an accounting device/voucher system, it makes an effective medium of exchange and public utility, the effects of storing it are socially destructive. That the asset requires a debt to back it and so a healthy society needs some form of public commons as a way to store public wealth, because there are limits on how much private wealth can be sustained, before it becomes unhealthy to the larger society.

Remember the body stores resources as fat, bone and muscle, not just in the spleen. So mixing up blood and fat tends to clog the circulation system.

I suspect this idea alone will not go over well, until people come to see nature as cyclical, reciprocal and feedback generated and it is mostly our sequential process of perception, as fauna, that make it seem linear and goal oriented.

More yin and yang, than God Almighty.
