Abstract

I argue that a form of consciousness may be found in American economic history, one which is both mathematically demonstrable and important. In this book I present a model of economic and political growth based upon systematic addition.

We begin with a philosophic model of trade (pp. 34-46);

aggregate this model over the course of year to state the real Gross National Product of the United States and its relationship to the rate of employment (pp. 47-62);

aggregate this model over the course of many years to find the growth of the United States stated as a natural “14-year octave” within real GNP data (pp. 63-91);

multiply this octave times two to find the 28-year natural rate of price fluctuation (pp. 92-112); and

multiply this octave times four to find the 56-year natural rate of political change (p. 92-112).

The final model (pp. 113-136) is the larger “fractal” of the model of trade which begins these essays, in essence demonstrating that the United States “trades” values over a period of time in much the same way the individual citizen trades goods and services for money on a personal basis.
