2016.01.09 1008 케인스의 거시경제와 하이에크의 미시경제와 허경영의 중산주의의 진리(keynesian macroeconomics, hayekian microeconomics, and Huh Kyung-young’s Centrism)

케인스의 거시경제, 하이에크의 미시경제, 그리고 중산주의 경제 이론을 비교하고, 현재 한국 경제의 문제점을 진단하며, 경제 정책 비전을 제시합니다. 최종적으로 중산주의 경제 시스템을 이해하고, 이를 통해 국민 모두가 잘 사는 경제를 만드는 방법을 제시합니다.

경제학적 배경 지식이 있다면 내용을 이해하는 데 도움이 될 수 있습니다.

  1. 현재 세계 경제 진단 및 문제점

과거 경제 이론의 한계:
세계 경제는 케인스의 거시경제(정부 주도 경제)와 하이에크의 미시경제(시장 경제)를 반복해왔지만, 현재 위기에 직면.
한국은 IMF 외환 위기를 겪으며 시장 경제 체제로 전환.
한국 경제의 심각성:
물가는 상승하고 돈의 가치는 하락하는 인플레이션, 스태그플레이션(물가 상승 + 경기 침체), 애그플레이션(농산물 가격 상승 + 경기 침체) 현상 심화.
정치인들이 시장 경제에만 의존하여 경제 위기 심화.
가계 부채 급증: 문민 정부 이후 김영삼, 김대중, 노무현, 이명박, 박근혜 정부를 거치며 가계 부채가 눈덩이처럼 불어남.
국가 예산 낭비: 공기업, 정부 지원 단체, 국회의원 특권 등으로 연간 수백조 원의 예산이 낭비.
일본 경제의 사례:
일본은 아베노믹스를 통해 양적 완화(인플레이션 유도)로 엔화 가치를 낮춰 수출을 증대시키는 데 성공.
그러나 일본의 부동산 거품 붕괴와 노인층의 소비 위축으로 경제 활력 저하.
일본은 금융실명제와 부동산실명제가 없어 자산 노출이 적어 자수성가를 유도하는 측면이 있음.

  1. 중산주의 경제 비전

과감한 양적 완화:
대통령이 되면 1,500조 원을 발행하여 서민 가계 부채를 100% 상환.
모든 부채를 제로로 만들고, 이자 없는 대출 형식으로 지원.
이는 일본의 양적 완화와 유사하지만, 국민 부채 탕감에 집중하여 소비 활성화 유도.
국가 예산 낭비 근절:
연간 250조 원에 달하는 국가 예산 낭비를 막고, 이 돈을 국민에게 환원.
공기업 임원들의 고액 연봉 및 퇴직금, 국회의원 특권, 시민 단체 지원금 등 불필요한 지출 삭감.
공무원의 예산 절약 시 좌천시키는 관행 폐지.
개인 자산 상한선 도입:
개인의 재산에 상한선을 두어, 일정 금액 이상은 세금으로 환수하여 국가 재정으로 활용.
재벌들의 탈세 및 경제 범죄에 대한 처벌 강화 (벌금 부과 및 재산 몰수).
사회 복지 확대:
노인 수당 70만 원 지급 (부부 합산 140만 원).
출산 장려금 3천만 원 지급 (10년 소급 적용).
베트남 참전 용사, 징용 피해자, 위안부 피해자 등에게 충분한 보상 지급.
정치 시스템 개혁:
교육감, 농협 조합장 등 선거 제도 폐지 및 임명직 전환.
국회의원 수 100명으로 축소 및 무보수 전환 (안철수 의원이 공약을 모방).
미국처럼 정당 지원금 및 당사 폐지.
중산주의 경제:
케인스의 거시경제와 하이에크의 미시경제의 장점만을 결합한 경제 시스템.
소비자를 왕으로 하는 경제 체제로, 모든 국민이 잘 살 수 있도록 함.
재벌 위주의 경제가 아닌, 인류 전체의 중산층을 육성하는 것을 목표.

  1. 경제 발전 단계와 국가의 역할

경제 발전 단계:
1만 달러 시대: 노동력(Manpower)만 있으면 가능.
2만 달러 시대: 기술력(Technology)이 필요.
3만 달러 시대: 예절(Etiquette)이 중요.
4만 달러 시대: 매너(Manner)가 중요.
5만 달러 시대: 신뢰(Trust)가 중요.
한국의 현주소:
한국은 현재 2만 달러에서 3만 달러 시대로 넘어가지 못하고 있음.
이는 국가 예산 낭비와 지도자들의 부패 때문.
박정희 대통령의 실리 외교:
박정희 대통령은 명분보다 실리를 중시하여 일본으로부터 8억 달러를 받아 경제 발전에 투자.
이 자금으로 포항제철, 고속도로 건설 등 산업 기반을 마련하여 한국 경제를 세계 10위권으로 성장시킴.
반면, 필리핀, 태국 등 다른 아시아 국가들은 받은 자금을 정치 자금으로 탕진하여 경제 발전이 더딤.

“돈을 그렇게 많이 찍어내면 인플레이션이 심해지지 않을까?”:
→ 현재 한국의 지하 자금(5만 원권 지폐 등)이 땅속에 숨어 있어 인플레이션이 크게 발생하지 않을 것이다. 또한, 미국도 양적 완화를 통해 달러를 많이 찍어내지만, 각국 지하로 들어가 인플레이션이 발생하지 않는다고 설명.
“개인 자산 상한선은 자본주의 원칙에 위배되지 않는가?”:
→ 현재 전 세계 5%의 부자가 90% 이상의 부를 소유하는 자본의 노예 시대가 도래하고 있으며, 이는 지속 불가능하다.. 개인의 기여도에 따라 적정 수준의 부를 인정하되, 과도한 부의 축적은 국가가 환수하여 국민 복지에 사용해야 한다.

거시경제(Macroeconomics): 국가 전체의 경제 현상을 다루는 분야. 케인스 경제학이 대표적.
미시경제(Microeconomics): 개별 경제 주체(가계, 기업)의 의사 결정을 다루는 분야. 하이에크 경제학이 대표적.
중산주의 경제(Middle-Class Economy): 제시(提示)하는 경제 시스템으로, 거시경제와 미시경제의 장점을 결합하여 소비자를 왕으로 삼고 모든 국민을 중산층으로 만드는 것을 목표.
인플레이션(inflation): 물가가 지속적으로 상승하고 화폐 가치가 하락하는 현상.
스태그플레이션(stagflation): 경기 침체와 동시에 인플레이션이 발생하는 현상.
애그플레이션(Agflation): 농산물 가격 상승으로 인해 발생하는 인플레이션.
양적 완화(quantitative easing): 중앙은행이 국채 등을 매입하여 시장에 통화량을 늘리는 정책.
긴축 경제(Austerity Economy): 정부 지출을 줄이고 세금을 늘려 재정 건전성을 확보하려는 정책.
흑묘백묘론(Black Cat, White Cat Theory): 덩샤오핑의 실용주의 노선으로, 고양이의 색깔이 검든 희든 쥐만 잘 잡으면 된다는 의미. 즉, 이념보다 실용적인 경제 발전을 우선시한다는 사상.

대한민국 부채 현황 (2016년 강연 시점):
가계 부채: 1,300조 원
지자체 부채: 100조 원
공기업 부채: 300조 원
국가 외채: 5,000조 원
총 부채: 6,700조 원 (GDP의 18배)

The Truth of Keynesian Macroeconomics, Hayekian Microeconomics, and Huh Kyung-young’s Middle-Class Economics

  1. Economic Trends and the Crisis of Conventional Theories
    The global economy has cycled through various theories, from Keynesian macroeconomics to microeconomics, eventually leading to periods of crisis such as the IMF bailout . This cyclical pattern has repeatedly overturned economic paradigms, bringing us to the current market economy . Our economy, like the global one, faces a severe situation where prices are declining while the value of money is increasing . This phenomenon, often confused with inflation—where prices rise and the value of money falls—highlights a critical misunderstanding of economic dynamics .

Historically, Korea has relied heavily on a state-controlled economy, a factor that contributed to the IMF crisis . While the world theorized about Keynesian economics, the global economy now confronts a crisis, directly impacting our nation . Economists often complicate these diagnoses, leading to public confusion . The economic landscape until 2015 exhibited certain trends, but the future, as envisioned, will unfold differently . Prices are projected to rise, and the value of money will fall, leading to stagflation, a condition where rising prices coincide with economic decline . Furthermore, agflation, characterized by rising agricultural product prices and economic contraction, is also anticipated .

  1. Japan’s Inflationary Experiment and Korea’s Economic Missteps
    Japan’s Prime Minister successfully leveraged macroeconomics to induce inflation . This strategy involved increasing prices and decreasing the value of money . The deliberate creation of inflation, a form of state-controlled economy, aimed to devalue the Japanese Yen, thereby boosting exports . This approach proved successful for Japan .

In contrast, Korean politicians have pursued a different path, subtly shifting towards a market economy after the IMF crisis, driven by apprehension . Unlike Japan’s bold move, Korea’s leadership has not proactively stimulated inflation . The Japanese Prime Minister’s directive to banks to print trillions of Yen and distribute it to those in need revitalized the economy, leading to a sharp decline in currency value and a surge in exports . This demonstrates that economic management requires visionary leadership, a quality often lacking among conventional economists .

Japan’s economic trajectory often precedes Korea’s by approximately 30 years . For instance, Japan experienced a real estate bubble, and Korea is now gradually entering a similar phase . The era of easy wealth, where a 50 million Won apartment could appreciate to billions in a few years, is over . Reckless spending, similar to Japan’s past, has ended, leaving behind an aging population that saves rather than spends, with their wealth often flowing overseas .

  1. Quantitative Easing and Debt Annihilation
    The Japanese Prime Minister’s policy of quantitative easing involves the suspicious printing of money to boldly empower those without capital . If Huh Kyung-young were to become president, the immediate priority would be to boldly implement inflation in Korea, not 30 years after Japan, but within two years . There is currently no political will in Korea to undertake such a decisive measure .

The plan involves printing a staggering 1,500 trillion Won to fully repay the household debt of ordinary citizens, effectively bringing everyone’s debt to zero . This would eliminate the burden of bank interest, as loans would be provided interest-free . All personal and business debts would be eradicated, freeing citizens from financial hardship .

Bank interest primarily benefits corporations, while the working and middle classes struggle with interest payments, often more so than with rising prices . Government officials, however, remain fixated on price stability, neglecting the more pressing issue of interest burdens . Foreign entities largely own Korean banks, siphoning off national wealth through interest payments .

Even with a slight increase in inflation, printing 1,500 trillion Won to clear 1,300 trillion Won in household debt and other individual debts would liberate the populace . The government would not concern itself with repayment timelines, as the loans would be interest-free and effectively forgiven . This would eliminate debt for every household, allowing citizens to live comfortably on pensions and senior citizen benefits .

Current political discourse often advocates for deflation, fearing rising prices . However, such policies are detrimental, leading to widespread suffering . The 1,500 trillion Won figure for debt repayment is based on current household debt of approximately 1,300 trillion Won, with an allowance for an additional 200 trillion Won by the time of presidential inauguration .

A significant portion of Korea’s money is hidden, often in 50,000 Won bills, circulating underground or being smuggled overseas . Despite concerns about inflation, printing 1,500 trillion Won to clear common people’s debts would prevent economic collapse and save those on the brink of suicide . This bold economic strategy, though seemingly unbelievable, is rooted in a deep understanding of the Korean economy .

  1. Critique of Conventional Economic Management and Political Corruption
    Current economic management is often handled by academics who lack practical business experience, relying solely on theoretical models and numerical analyses . These individuals, often from privileged backgrounds, are disconnected from the realities of the market . They frequently consult with high-ranking bank executives who advocate for policies that increase household debt, thereby boosting bank profits . This symbiotic relationship between banks, economists, and economic ministers suggests a rigged system .

The 1,500 trillion Won household debt is a direct consequence of political decisions, making it the nation’s responsibility . For instance, the government under President Kim Dae-jung stimulated the economy by promoting credit card usage, leading to a card crisis . This policy, continued under subsequent administrations, caused household debt to skyrocket, a stark contrast to the minimal debt during the Park Chung-hee era .

The influx of political appointees into government-invested institutions under civilian governments, starting with Kim Young-sam, led to a surge in national debt . Unlike the military governments, which strictly punished corruption, civilian administrations allowed tens of thousands of individuals to secure lucrative positions .

A prime example of this corruption is the Seoul city bus companies . There are 66 private bus companies in Seoul, whose executives are often political cronies . These executives earn annual salaries of 500 million Won and receive severance packages of 3 billion Won, despite performing minimal work . Their severance pay can even reach 4 billion Won . This system is a “den of thieves,” leading to exponential increases in national debt .

The Seoul Metropolitan Government annually supports these 66 bus companies with 320 billion Won . While audits are supposed to occur 12 times a year, they happen only once every 11 years, conducted by auditors recommended by the bus companies themselves . This 320 billion Won is not fairly distributed; instead, it is funneled to those with political connections . Executive salaries, averaging 550 million Won annually, are a major cause of the companies’ reported deficits . In contrast, bus drivers, numbering 15,000 in Seoul, earn an average annual salary of 40 million Won . The monthly salary of a bus company president can be ten times that of a National Assembly member, indicating deep-seated corruption .

Bus companies typically have four executives, each earning an average of 500 million Won, totaling 2 billion Won in executive salaries annually . The average annual deficit of a bus company is 6 billion Won, which the government compensates . If executive salaries were excluded, these companies would not be operating at a deficit . Many executives are family members of the owners, perpetuating a cycle of nepotism and financial mismanagement . This corruption extends to hiring practices, where drivers often pay bribes to secure jobs .

Such financially unsound companies should be eliminated, and bus operations should be normalized without government subsidies . The allocation of these funds by Seoul city officials is highly questionable . Furthermore, bus fare increases are decided without public consultation, reflecting a deeply flawed system .

Political parties also receive substantial government support. In 2014, the Saenuri Party received 38 billion Won, the Democratic Party of Korea 6.1 billion Won, and the Justice Party 3 billion Won, totaling 80.3 billion Won . This is despite parties being expected to fund themselves through membership dues . This level of government funding for political parties is deemed absurd .

An analysis of national expenditures reveals that 70% of taxes are misspent . If these wasteful expenditures were eliminated, there would be ample funds for initiatives such as marriage subsidies of 300 million Won and childbirth allowances of 30 million Won . This mismanagement extends to tens of thousands of civic groups that receive state support, undermining their role as government watchdogs .

The annual budget for National Assembly members, including their aides, totals 800-900 billion Won, while local government officials account for 1.3 trillion Won . This enormous expenditure could be saved if these positions were unpaid . Unlike the U.S., where political parties operate with minimal overhead and no government subsidies, Korea’s system is rife with waste .

Those responsible for drafting the national budget, who have squandered public funds, deserve severe punishment . The nation’s financial woes are not due to a lack of money but an abundance of corruption .

  1. The Middle-Class Economic System: A Synthesis of Ideologies
    Huh Kyung-young’s middle-class economic system represents a synthesis of Keynesian macroeconomics (state-controlled economy, like Roosevelt’s New Deal) and Hayekian microeconomics (market economy, or neoliberalism) . Keynes, a British economist akin to Karl Marx, was deeply knowledgeable about communist economic systems and state control . His theories, along with Adam Smith’s capitalism and Max Weber’s capitalism, influenced economic thought .

The collapse of the Soviet Union discredited Keynesian theory, leading to a shift towards Hayek’s microeconomics and the market economy, known as neoliberal economics . However, neither extreme is sufficient . The middle-class economic system selectively incorporates the best aspects of both . It is neither a communist macroeconomy nor a purely state-controlled or market economy . Instead, it is a consumer-centric system where citizens are sovereign, not sellers . This ensures that all consumers prosper, and the benefits of business success are shared with the populace, unlike the current system where conglomerates monopolize wealth .

This approach also includes policies like the New Deal for agriculture and market activation . While conventional systems often favor conglomerates, the middle-class system aims to elevate all of humanity to the middle class .

  1. Financial Mismanagement and the Need for Reform
    The current system allows bus companies to create deficit reports and receive 320 billion Won from the government, a process riddled with corruption that remains unexposed due to the immense power of those involved . Even slight price increases are beneficial if interest payments are eliminated, offering a tenfold advantage .

The nation currently wastes approximately 250 trillion Won annually from its national budget . This colossal sum could be recovered and returned to the people . Combined with the 1,500 trillion Won from quantitative easing, roughly 2,000 trillion Won would be available . This would eliminate debt for individuals and self-employed persons, leaving only large and medium-sized businesses with debt .

The current system of electing superintendents of education and heads of agricultural cooperatives would be abolished, replaced by an appointment system to prevent national ruin . Japan’s economic success is partly attributed to the absence of a real-name financial system and real-name real estate system . In Japan, children often do not know their parents’ wealth, fostering self-reliance . In Korea, however, the real-name financial system exposes parental assets, leading to familial discord and a lack of motivation to work . This system also encourages the wealthy to hide their money in countries like Hong Kong, Switzerland, Japan, and the U.S., which lack real-name financial systems, resulting in economic losses for Korea .

President Kim Young-sam’s emphasis on “justification” over “practicality” led to the nation’s economic decline, exemplified by the real-name financial system and the demolition of the Central Government Complex . In contrast, President Park Chung-hee prioritized practicality, securing 800 million dollars from Japan for economic development despite national criticism . This money was meticulously invested in infrastructure like Pohang Iron and Steel Company and highways, rather than being squandered on political funds or lavish buildings, unlike other Asian nations that received similar aid .

At that time, Korea’s GNP was a mere 68 dollars, significantly lower than Thailand (richest), North Korea (170 dollars), and the Philippines (200 dollars) . While other nations squandered their aid, Korea, under Park Chung-hee, transformed its economy, rising to become one of the world’s top 10 economies, with a current GNP of 28,000 dollars . North Korea, once prosperous, became impoverished .

The democratic governments that followed Park Chung-hee, from Kim Young-sam to Park Geun-hye, presided over a period of economic decline and corruption, leading to an unrecoverable state . The U.S. system of indirect presidential elections, with its electoral college, is similar to the National Conference for Unification system established by President Park Chung-hee, which minimized election costs . The current democratic system has fragmented society .

  1. The Constant (상수) vs. Coefficient (계수) in Economics
    Huh Kyung-young’s presidency would usher in a new era, characterized by quantitative easing and the printing of 1,500 trillion Won . The U.S. has successfully used quantitative easing to print dollars without causing inflation, as the currency often flows into underground reserves globally . Unlike Korea’s central bank, the U.S. Federal Reserve is a private entity, allowing private citizens to print money to sustain the nation . While the U.S. and Japan practice quantitative easing, Korea’s austerity measures are detrimental, leading to market stagnation . Austerity, in practice, means tightening the belts of the populace while those in power continue to spend lavishly .

China’s economic rise, often attributed to Deng Xiaoping’s “black cat, white cat” philosophy, was inspired by Huh Kyung-young’s idea of “hiding democracy to foster industrialization” (도민양해) . This pragmatic approach, which prioritized economic development over ideological purity, was later adopted by Deng Xiaoping as “black cat, white cat” (흑묘백묘) . In 1973, Deng Xiaoping invited Hayek, who advised him to allow farmers to sell their produce in the market, leading to China’s economic revitalization .

However, even with capitalism, China has not achieved a middle-class society; instead, it has created extreme wealth and poverty . Huh Kyung-young proposes a cap on personal wealth, where any amount exceeding a certain limit would be taxed by the state . For instance, if a pharmaceutical company chairman earns 10 trillion Won, a significant portion should be returned to the nation as taxes, with the remainder used for employee welfare . This would prevent excessive individual wealth accumulation, which is currently unregulated .

Conventional economists, often graduates of Seoul National University, view economics through coefficients, where 1+1 equals 2 . Huh Kyung-young, however, views economics through constants, where 1+1 equals 1 . This means that while an individual’s contribution to the nation is recognized, their personal wealth should not increase disproportionately . This approach ensures a healthy society where capital accumulation is regulated, preventing the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few . Currently, 5% of the world’s population owns 90% of its wealth, a trend that will only worsen, turning the majority into “slaves of capital” . The constant approach aims to create a more equitable distribution of wealth .

The fundamental numbers (근본수) in the Cheonbugyeong (천부경), such as 1, 3, 5 (summing to 9, representing heaven) and 2, 4 (summing to 6, representing earth), encompass all elements . The center, representing Korea, embodies the five elements (오행) . This philosophical framework guides the approach to international relations and economic policy . The middle-class economic system operates within these fundamental numbers, unlike those who are fixated on “imaginary numbers” (허수) .

  1. Addressing Systemic Waste and Historical Grievances
    Beyond bus companies, government budgets are being squandered across all public enterprises and government-supported organizations . National Assembly members, for instance, collectively receive 854.4 billion Won annually, a privilege that needs to be reformed .

While advocating for good relations with Japan, it is important to address historical issues with wisdom . The comfort women issue, for example, was comprehensively resolved by President Park Chung-hee, who wisely ensured that the term “comfort women” would no longer be a source of national shame . Reopening this issue only brings embarrassment to future generations . The 800 million dollars received from Japan was a substantial sum, and demanding more only undermines national pride . As a nation with the Cheonbugyeong, a scripture given by heaven, and National Foundation Day (개천절), Korea should uphold its dignity .

Japanese culture, as observed during a past visit, emphasizes keeping promises and integrity, a stark contrast to the “beggar mentality” that demands more after an agreement is reached . This difference in national character highlights areas where Korea needs to improve .

Economic development progresses through stages:
10,000 dollars: Requires manpower (노동력) .
20,000 dollars: Requires technology (기술) .
30,000 dollars: Requires etiquette (예절) .
40,000 dollars: Requires manners (매너) .
50,000 dollars: Requires trust (신뢰) .

Japan, currently at 50,000 dollars, has passed the 30,000-dollar etiquette stage . Korea, however, still has a long way to go . Civil servants who save budget funds are often demoted, incentivizing wasteful spending to ensure next year’s budget is not reduced . This “international country” (망국적 국가) cannot be trusted with such leadership .

Manners are crucial, especially in international business, where a lack of etiquette can lead to rejection . Good manners are essential for entering the 40,000-dollar era . Only countries like Switzerland (90,000 dollars) and Japan have surpassed the 50,000-dollar era, demonstrating steady growth .

While Japan and the U.S. practice quantitative easing, Korea’s austerity measures are causing exports to decline, with a 17% drop this year, an unprecedented event under the current administration . This highlights the need for a different approach, one that understands the difference between coefficients and constants in economic management .

Korea’s total debt, including household debt (1,300 trillion Won), local government debt (100 trillion Won), public enterprise debt (300 trillion Won), and national foreign debt (5,000 trillion Won), amounts to 6,700 trillion Won, which is 8 times the GDP . This enormous figure underscores the severity of the economic situation .

The national defense budget is 37 trillion Won, representing 10% of the national budget, while the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism’s budget is 35 trillion Won . Disputes over funding for programs like the Nuri course, which provides meals for children, are unacceptable . With the world’s lowest birth rate, it is imperative to fully fund children’s programs and even provide retroactive payments of 30 million Won per child born in the last 10 years .

Additional funds can be secured by eliminating tax cuts for conglomerates, which amount to 200 trillion Won annually . Furthermore, economic criminals, unlike violent offenders, are often not imprisoned but merely fined . These fines, which can be trillions of Won, could generate another 100 trillion Won annually, eliminating the need for prison operating expenses and justice ministry salaries . This would also regulate the asset growth of conglomerates, ensuring that their wealth contributes to the nation’s well-being .

Historical grievances, such as those of Korean War veterans, forced laborers during the Japanese colonial era, and comfort women, would be fully compensated . Veterans would receive 500 million Won in a lump sum and 3 million Won monthly, a compensation package several times higher than what the U.S. provides . Forced laborers and comfort women would receive billions of Won in compensation, addressing all their complaints . This would be funded by the government, acknowledging that past administrations failed to adequately compensate these individuals . The 800 million dollars received from Japan in the past was a comprehensive settlement, and there is no need to demand more from Japan; the government would provide the necessary funds .

The issue of excessive wealth accumulation, such as that of Noh So-young, would be addressed through the tax system . Any individual income exceeding a certain amount would be collected by the government as taxes, ensuring a more equitable distribution of wealth . This approach, rooted in centrism (중산주의), would prevent the kind of corruption seen in the past, where powerful figures like Chun Doo-hwan amassed illicit wealth

Inflation: A general increase in prices and fall in the purchasing value of money.
Deflation: A decrease in the general price level of goods and services.
Stagflation: A condition of slow economic growth and relatively high unemployment, accompanied by rising prices (inflation).
Agflation (Eggflation): A term used to describe rising food prices, specifically agricultural product prices, often accompanied by economic decline.
Quantitative Easing (QE): A monetary policy where a central bank buys government securities or other securities from the market in order to lower interest rates and increase the money supply.
Middle-Classism (Jung-san-ju-ui): A proposed economic system by Huh Kyung-young that blends elements of macroeconomics and microeconomics, aiming to make consumers “king” and create a middle class for all people, rather than solely benefiting conglomerates or relying on complete market freedom or government control.

Central Questions & Answers
Central Question: How can Korea overcome its severe economic crisis, characterized by rising household debt, wealth inequality, and political corruption, and achieve sustainable prosperity for all citizens?
Speaker’s Main Answer:
Implement “middle-classism,” a hybrid economic system that prioritizes consumers and aims to create a middle class for all, blending elements of government-controlled and market economies.
Execute massive quantitative easing by printing 1,500 trillion won to completely pay off all household and individual debt, making everyone debt-free.
Introduce a cap on individual wealth, taxing excessive accumulation to fund national welfare and employee benefits, thereby preventing extreme wealth concentration.
Eliminate government waste and corruption, including excessive salaries for public enterprise executives, political party subsidies, and unnecessary budget spending, to free up hundreds of trillions of won.
Abolish the financial and real estate real-name systems to encourage hidden wealth to re-enter the economy and promote individual initiative.
Compensate victims of historical injustices (e.g., forced laborers, comfort women, dispatched soldiers) with substantial funds from the national budget.

Conclusion & Strategic / Philosophical Implications
The lecture concludes with a strong call for a radical overhaul of Korea’s economic and political system, advocating for Huh Kyung-young’s “middle-classism” as the only path to national salvation. The speaker argues that current policies, driven by corrupt politicians and flawed economic theories, have led the country to the brink of collapse. The philosophical implication is a rejection of both pure Keynesian government control and pure Hayekian market liberalism in favor of a pragmatic, consumer-centric approach that prioritizes equitable wealth distribution and national well-being. Strategically, it proposes a direct, top-down intervention to eliminate debt, redistribute wealth, and eliminate corruption, contrasting with incremental reforms. The underlying message is that true economic genius lies in understanding fundamental principles (constants) rather than complex calculations (coefficients) and that a moral, visionary leader is essential to implement these changes.

Content Gaps & Unaddressed Areas
Feasibility of Printing 1,500 Trillion Won: The lecture proposes printing an enormous sum of money to eliminate debt without adequately addressing the potential hyperinflationary consequences or how such a massive influx of currency would be managed to prevent economic collapse. While the speaker claims inflation won’t occur, the mechanism for this is not fully explained beyond the idea of hidden money.
Detailed Implementation Plan for “Middle-Classism”: While “middle-classism” is introduced as a hybrid economic system, the specific policies, regulatory frameworks, and institutional changes required to implement it are not detailed. How it would balance government intervention and market freedom in practice remains vague.
Impact of Abolishing Real-Name Systems: The speaker advocates for abolishing financial and real estate real-name systems, citing Japan as an example. However, the potential negative consequences, such as increased illicit financial activities, tax evasion, and corruption, are not explored.
Source of “Underground Funds”: The lecture mentions 900 trillion won in “underground funds” but does not elaborate on how these funds would be identified, accessed, or integrated into the formal economy.
International Repercussions of Economic Policies: The proposed policies, particularly massive quantitative easing and currency devaluation, could have significant international trade and diplomatic repercussions, which are not discussed.
Specifics of Wealth Cap Implementation: The idea of a cap on individual wealth is introduced, but the exact threshold, the mechanism for collecting excess wealth, and the legal and ethical implications of such a policy are not elaborated upon.
Long-Term Sustainability of Debt Relief: While immediate debt relief is proposed, the lecture does not outline long-term strategies to prevent future accumulation of household debt or to foster financial literacy and responsible borrowing among citizens.
Evidence for Corruption Claims: The speaker makes sweeping claims about corruption in government and public enterprises, citing specific figures for waste. While these claims are presented as facts, detailed evidence or investigative findings are not provided within the transcript.

Future Predictions & Prophetic Statements
Economic Trajectory (2015 onwards): “What I’m talking about today is, this is the economy that will be like this until 2015. This is what I’m looking forward to. It’s going to go like this. Let’s see what the economy is like. Prices will rise, the value of money will fall. And then there’s stagflation. Prices will rise, and the economy will decline.”
Huh Kyung-young’s Presidency and Economic Transformation: “If I become president, the first thing I will do is boldly raise inflation in our country. Instead of doing inflation 30 years after Japan, I waited two years and became president. So, there is no politics in our country that would boldly raise money like that. There is no politics. Let’s print a whopping 1,500 trillion won and use it to pay off 100% of the household debt of the common people. Everyone’s debt is zero.”
Elimination of Debt and Prosperity: “If there’s no light, our people will live on pensions. If I give each of them 700,000 won in senior citizen benefits, and my parents receive 1.4 million won, they won’t live. So, saving the people is simple.”
Fate of National Assembly Members and Officials: “I’m suddenly in a desperate need for a vision before I become president. Why should I take as much as I want and spend it? Why is it 1,500 trillion won? Household debt is not 1,200 trillion won, it’s around 1,300 trillion won. So, if we assume that by the time I become president, we’ll increase by about 200 trillion won, we’ll hit 1,500 trillion won. Crush it all.”
Exposure of Hidden Money: “I think there will be a lot of inflation. All the 50,000 won bills went underground and when they tear down that wall, money comes out on stage. So where did all the money hide? After the 50,000 won bills came out, they smuggled them overseas.”
End of Education Superintendent and Local Government Head Elections: “If I become president, this talk about the superintendent of education will be over. Who will elect the superintendent of education now? Listen carefully, superintendent of education, the head of the agricultural cooperative association, there is no election system, the country will be ruined. The Minister of Education ‘s words should be clearly communicated, but in the middle of that, the superintendent of education is there, and the local government heads are gone. The election system for the heads of the organizations is gone. All of this is gone. Who will elect this person? It is an appointed position. This country will be ruined.”
Future of Wealth Inequality: “Right now, 5% of the world owns 90% of the world’s money. That’s right, that’s not right. Then, in a few more years, 5% of the world will own 95% of the world’s money. That’s right, that’s not right. If it goes up, it won’t go down. So, all of humanity in the world is slaves. Slaves. Slaves to capital.”
Punishment for Corrupt Officials: “I am watching everyone’s actions, and I am watching over the monogamy as the job of every member of the National Assembly. I am checking and recording the banks of all ministers. Who am I? Later, something unimaginable will happen to you.”
Retroactive Child-Rearing Benefits: “If I become president, I’ll calculate 30 million won for everyone who had children in the past 10 years. Someone who has had three children in the past 10 years will get 90 million won. If I become president, I’ll give it retroactively. It’s not like I’m giving it to people who have had children since I became president. It’s 30 million won per lover they had 10 years ago. How much will someone who has had three children and now has an 11-year-old get? 90 million won. If I don’t give that, I’ll step down as president.”
End of Prisons for Economic Criminals: “Also, only murderers and violent criminals go to prison in prisons for companies. The rest of the economic criminals, like the chairman of Cheil Jedang, are in prison. They don’t arrest those people. They just fine them. You give me 1 trillion won. What percentage of my stock should I give you? Then you’ll be released. So the conglomerates collect fines, and another 100 trillion won comes in every year. The prison operating expenses don’t go away. The salary of the Ministry of Justice civil servants hasn’t been met yet. Why did they set up a fake hotel together? When I go in, it’s so comfortable.”

Executive Insight
This lecture presents a radical critique of Korea’s economic and political landscape, advocating for a complete systemic overhaul under Huh Kyung-young’s “middle-classism.” The core strategic takeaway is the proposed direct and massive intervention to eliminate household debt through quantitative easing, coupled with a wealth cap to curb extreme inequality. This vision challenges conventional economic theories by blending government control and market principles, aiming to empower consumers and foster a broad middle class. For professionals, this highlights a deep public frustration with current economic disparities and political corruption, suggesting that unconventional, bold solutions resonate with a populace seeking fundamental change. The emphasis on pragmatic, results-oriented governance, as exemplified by Park Chung-hee and Deng Xiaoping, underscores a desire for leadership that prioritizes tangible national prosperity over ideological purity or bureaucratic inertia.

  2. Core Messages (Key report / Brief)
    Critique of Existing Economic Systems:
    Quote: “The world economy now is this individual tax macroeconomics, this, and then microeconomics, and then what came next? We had the IMF… This was overturned several times, and now we’re at this market economy.”
    Explanation: Huh Kyung-young asserts that both Keynesian macroeconomics (government-controlled) and Hayek’s microeconomics (market economy/neoliberalism) have failed to provide stable economic solutions, leading to repeated crises like the IMF bailout in Korea.
    Introduction of Middle-Classism:

  3. Detailed Summary (Detailed report / Deep Dive)
    Economic History and Current Crisis
    Main assertions and explanations: Huh Kyung-young traces the evolution of economic thought from Keynesian macroeconomics to microeconomics and the current market economy, noting that Korea experienced the IMF crisis during this shift. He observes that the current economy is in a serious situation, with prices falling and the value of money rising (deflation), or prices rising and the value of money falling (inflation), leading to stagflation (rising prices, declining economy) and “eggflation” (rising agricultural prices, declining economy). He criticizes economists for overcomplicating diagnoses.
    Analogies, examples, biblical/scientific/historical references: He mentions the IMF crisis as a turning point for Korea.
    Practical message or application: The audience should understand the true state of the world economy beyond complex academic explanations.
    Japan’s Inflationary Success and Korea’s Failure
    Main assertions and explanations: Huh Kyung-young praises Japan’s Prime Minister for successfully creating inflation by lowering the value of the yen to boost exports through state-controlled economic policies (quantitative easing). He contrasts this with Korean politicians who, out of fear, reverted to a market economy after the IMF, failing to implement bold inflationary measures. He argues that Japan is 30 years ahead in economic strategy.
    Analogies, examples, biblical/scientific/historical references: Japan’s quantitative easing and its success in increasing exports by devaluing the yen.
    Practical message or application: Korea needs bold, genius-level economic leadership, not economists who merely play with numbers.
    The Problem of Debt and the Solution of Quantitative Easing
    Main assertions and explanations: He warns against real estate bubbles, drawing parallels with Japan’s past. He criticizes the current system where ordinary people struggle with interest payments, while politicians prioritize price stability (deflation) which he calls “crazy.” He proposes printing 1,500 trillion won to pay off all household and individual debt, making everyone debt-free. This would be a “no-interest loan” in form, but effectively a debt write-off. He argues that interest payments are more frightening than rising prices for the common people.
    Analogies, examples, biblical/scientific/historical references: Japan’s real estate bubble.
    Practical message or application: Eliminating debt would free citizens and stimulate the economy, allowing them to live on pensions and benefits.
    Systemic Corruption and Mismanagement of Public Funds
    Main assertions and explanations: Huh Kyung-young claims that foreign banks are siphoning off Korean wealth through interest payments. He reiterates his plan to print 1,500 trillion won to clear debt, asserting that this money is not truly “missing” but hidden in 50,000 won bills or smuggled overseas. He argues that current government officials are incompetent and only worry about prices, while ignoring the deeper issues of debt and foreign exploitation.
    Analogies, examples, biblical/scientific/historical references: Foreign banks taking Korean money.
    Practical message or application: Citizens should not be confused by complex economic diagnoses but understand that debt relief is simple and achievable.
    Critique of Political and Bureaucratic Incompetence
    Main assertions and explanations: He lambasts economists and politicians for their lack of real-world business experience, calling them “cowards” and “nobles” who only read books. He accuses them of colluding with banks to increase household debt for profit. He attributes the snowballing household debt to civilian governments (Kim Young-sam, Kim Dae-jung, Roh Moo-hyun, Lee Myung-bak, Park Geun-hye) who, unlike military leaders like Park Chung-hee, allowed corruption and excessive appointments in government-invested institutions.
    Analogies, examples, biblical/scientific/historical references: Comparison of civilian governments with Park Chung-hee’s era.
    Practical message or application: The country’s problems stem from incompetent and corrupt leadership, not a lack of money.
    The Bus Company Scandal: A Microcosm of Corruption
    Main assertions and explanations: Huh Kyung-young uses the example of Seoul’s 66 bus companies to illustrate systemic corruption. He claims that these private companies receive 320 billion won annually in government subsidies, despite executives earning exorbitant salaries (500 million won average, up to 800 million won for CEOs) and severance packages (3-4 billion won), while drivers earn only 40 million won. He alleges that these executives are often relatives of those in power, and audits are rigged. He calls for the elimination of deficit-ridden companies and an end to government support.
    Analogies, examples, biblical/scientific/historical references: Detailed breakdown of bus company finances and executive salaries.
    Practical message or application: This example reveals how public funds are siphoned off, leading to national disintegration.
    Wasteful Political Spending and the Real-Name System
    Main assertions and explanations: He criticizes the massive government subsidies given to political parties (e.g., Saenuri Party 38 billion won, Democratic Party 6.1 billion won, Justice Party 3 billion won), arguing that parties should be self-funded. He also points out the enormous annual budget for National Assembly members and their aides (900 billion won) and local government officials (1.3 trillion won), advocating for unpaid political service. He claims that 70% of taxes are wasted. He also criticizes the real-name financial and real estate systems, arguing they cause capital flight and family disputes, unlike Japan’s system which fosters self-sufficiency.
    Analogies, examples, biblical/scientific/historical references: US political parties having no party offices or government subsidies.
    Practical message or application: Eliminating political waste and reforming financial systems would free up trillions of won for public welfare.
    Park Chung-hee’s Pragmatism vs. Later Administrations’ “Cause”
    Main assertions and explanations: Huh Kyung-young contrasts President Park Chung-hee’s “substance-over-cause” approach (e.g., accepting Japanese aid to build the economy, investing in infrastructure like Pohang Iron and Steel Company and highways) with later administrations’ focus on “cause” (명분), which he blames for economic decline. He argues that Park’s pragmatic use of foreign aid led to Korea’s economic revival, while other Asian countries that received similar aid squandered it on political funds. He criticizes the “democratization forces” for their role in the economic downturn.
    Analogies, examples, biblical/scientific/historical references: Park Chung-hee’s use of $800 million from Japan for economic development, contrasting with other Asian countries.
    Practical message or application: True leadership prioritizes practical economic development over symbolic gestures.
    The Essence of Middle-Classism and Wealth Redistribution
    Main assertions and explanations: He reiterates that his “Middle-Classism” is a blend of Keynesian and Hayekian economics, focusing on making consumers “king” and ensuring all citizens live well. He advocates for quantitative easing, similar to the US and Japan, to stimulate the economy, contrasting it with Korea’s “austerity” policies that he claims are destroying the market. He also proposes an upper limit on personal wealth, with excess wealth collected as taxes for the country, citing the example of Hanmi Pharmaceutical’s chairman’s massive profits.
    Analogies, examples, biblical/scientific/historical references: US and Japan’s quantitative easing.
    Practical message or application: Middle-Classism aims to create a society where wealth is distributed more equitably, benefiting all, not just conglomerates.
    The “Black Cat, White Cat” Analogy and Hayek’s Influence on China
    Main assertions and explanations: Huh Kyung-young claims that Deng Xiaoping’s “black cat, white cat” theory (흑묘백묘론), which led to China’s economic rise, was inspired by his own idea of “hiding democracy to foster industrialization.” He states that Deng Xiaoping invited Hayek in 1973, who advised China to allow farmers to sell their produce in the market, leading to China’s economic boom. He criticizes Korean politicians for not understanding such fundamental economic principles.
    Analogies, examples, biblical/scientific/historical references: Deng Xiaoping’s “black cat, white cat” theory, Hayek’s advice to China.
    Practical message or application: Pragmatism and market liberalization, even under a communist regime, can lead to economic growth.
    Critique of Unfettered Capitalism and the Need for Constants
    Main assertions and explanations: He argues that current capitalism, where a small percentage of the world owns most of the wealth, is a “country-ruining ideology” that turns humanity into “slaves to capital.” He contrasts traditional economic learning (1+1=2, coefficients) with his own approach (1+1=1, constants), where individual wealth should be capped, and excess contributions returned to the country for welfare. This “constant” approach ensures a healthy, stable economy rather than one where the rich get infinitely richer.
    Analogies, examples, biblical/scientific/historical references: 5% of the world owning 90-95% of wealth.
    Practical message or application: A balanced economic system, guided by “constants,” is necessary to prevent societal collapse and ensure equitable distribution.
    National Spirit, Etiquette, and Economic Development Stages
    Main assertions and explanations: Huh Kyung-young criticizes the “comfort women” issue being re-ignited, arguing it embarrasses Korea, a “heaven-descended nation” with the Cheonbugyeong. He praises Japan’s adherence to promises and good manners, contrasting it with Korea’s “beggar mentality” of constantly asking for more. He outlines stages of economic development: $10,000 (manpower/labor), $20,000 (technology), $30,000 (etiquette), $40,000 (manners), $50,000 (trust). He states that Korea is stuck between $20,000 and $30,000, while Japan and Switzerland have surpassed $50,000. He blames this on politicians who punish civil servants for saving budget and waste money on unnecessary projects.
    Analogies, examples, biblical/scientific/historical references: Cheonbugyeong, Japanese taxi driver’s honesty, stages of economic development.
    Practical message or application: Cultivating national spirit, etiquette, and responsible governance is crucial for advancing economic development.
    Comprehensive Debt and Financial Solutions
    Main assertions and explanations: He details Korea’s total debt: 1,300 trillion won in household debt, 100 trillion in local government debt, 300 trillion in public enterprise debt, and 5,000 trillion in national foreign debt, totaling 6,700 trillion won (8 times GDP). He proposes various sources for his debt relief plan: 250 trillion won in annual government waste, 200 trillion won in tax cuts for conglomerates, and 100 trillion won from fines on economic criminals (who should not be imprisoned but fined, with their assets confiscated). He also promises retroactive child benefits (30 million won per child for the past 10 years).
    Analogies, examples, biblical/scientific/historical references: Detailed breakdown of national debt figures.
    Practical message or application: There is ample money available within the national budget and from regulating conglomerate wealth to solve the debt crisis and fund welfare programs.

    Korea stuck between $20,000 and $30,000
    E. National Spirit
    Korea is a “heaven-descended nation” with the Cheonbugyeong
    Criticizes re-igniting “comfort women” issue as embarrassing

  6. Historical / Doctrinal Connections (History / Counter View)
    This lecture by Huh Kyung-young deeply connects with and builds upon his established teachings, particularly his “33 policies” and his overarching vision for a transformed Korea.

Continuity with 33 Policies:
Debt Relief: The proposal to print 1,500 trillion won to pay off household debt is a direct manifestation of his long-standing promise to eliminate national debt and provide financial relief to citizens, a cornerstone of his 33 policies. This is not a new idea but a re-emphasis with specific figures and a detailed rationale.
Welfare Expansion: The mention of senior citizen benefits (700,000 won) and retroactive child benefits (30 million won per child) aligns perfectly with his consistent advocacy for a robust welfare state, funded by eliminating government waste and redistributing wealth.
Government Reform: His scathing critique of political corruption, wasteful spending, and bureaucratic incompetence is a recurring theme in his lectures, directly supporting his policy proposals for reducing the number of National Assembly members, eliminating political party subsidies, and streamlining government.
Divine-Human Theory and Leadership:
His assertion of being a “genius” and “master of numbers” who “came from heaven” reinforces his divine-human theory, positioning himself as the only one capable of truly understanding and solving Korea’s complex economic problems. He contrasts his “constant” (1+1=1) approach to economics with the “coefficient” (1+1=2) approach of conventional economists, implying a higher, more fundamental understanding.
Immortality Principles (Indirect Connection):
While not explicitly about immortality, his vision for a debt-free, prosperous society where citizens are “kings” and live well can be seen as creating an optimal environment for spiritual and physical well-being, which is a prerequisite for higher spiritual development and potentially, the pursuit of immortality. The removal of financial burdens is presented as a path to “peace of mind” (마음이 편치) , which is essential for spiritual growth.
Newly Emphasized Points or Developments:
“Middle-Classism” as a Defined Economic System: While his policies have always aimed at creating a strong middle class, this lecture explicitly names and defines “Middle-Classism” (중산주의) as a distinct economic philosophy that selectively blends Keynesian and Hayekian principles, with the consumer at its core. This provides a more structured theoretical framework for his economic vision.
Detailed Corruption Examples: The in-depth exposé of the Seoul bus company scandal, with specific figures for executive salaries, severance pay, and government subsidies, provides a concrete and vivid illustration of the systemic corruption he often speaks about in general terms. This level of detail serves to shock the audience and underscore the urgency of his proposed reforms.
Critique of Real-Name Systems: His strong condemnation of Korea’s real-name financial and real estate systems, contrasting them with Japan’s, is a more pronounced point in this lecture. He argues that these systems, intended for transparency, actually lead to capital flight and family discord, hindering economic growth and social harmony.
Hayek’s Role in China’s Rise: Attributing Deng Xiaoping’s “black cat, white cat” theory and China’s economic success to his own ideas and Hayek’s direct advice is a significant historical reinterpretation that highlights his unique perspective on global economic history.

  1. Action Items & Blessing Guidance (Action Items)
    Understand the True Economic Reality: Actively seek to understand the underlying economic issues and government corruption, rather than being confused by complex academic explanations or misled by politicians. This involves critically evaluating information and recognizing the systemic nature of the problems.
    Support Radical Debt Relief: Advocate for bold monetary policies, such as quantitative easing to eliminate household debt, recognizing that freedom from interest payments is more beneficial than minor price fluctuations. This aligns with the principle of prioritizing the people’s well-being over conventional economic dogma.
    Demand Ethical Governance and Fiscal Responsibility: Call for an end to government waste, political party subsidies, and exorbitant salaries for public enterprise executives. Support leaders who prioritize the efficient use of national taxes for the benefit of all citizens, rather than for personal or political gain.
    Cultivate National Spirit and Pragmatism: Reflect on Korea’s unique spiritual heritage and strive for a national character that values substance (실리) over mere cause (명분). Learn from other nations’ strengths, such as Japan’s honesty and etiquette, to elevate Korea’s standing in the world.
    Prepare for a Transformed Society: Be ready for the radical changes that Huh Kyung-young promises, including a debt-free society, expanded welfare, and a more equitable distribution of wealth. This preparation involves mental readiness and a willingness to embrace a new economic paradigm.

  2. One-Sentence Overall Summary (Easy report / Key report closing)
    Huh Kyung-young critiques existing economic theories and government practices, proposing “Middle-Classism” as a solution to national debt and corruption, advocating for bold monetary policy and ethical governance.

This excerpt note captures the core economic and political philosophy of Heo Kyeong-young, a unique figure in South Korean politics, from his 2016 Saturday lecture. Heo critiques conventional economic theories and government policies, advocating for his “Middle-Class Economy” as a solution to national debt and social inequality. His arguments are often provocative, challenging established norms with bold claims and unconventional proposals.

Heo Kyeong-young’s Economic Philosophy

Critique of Existing Economic Systems
Heo Kyeong-young argues that both Keynesian macroeconomics (government-controlled economy) and Hayekian microeconomics (market economy/neoliberalism) have failed, leading to economic crises and widening inequality. He believes these systems only benefit the wealthy and conglomerates, leaving the common people struggling with debt.

This is impressive because Heo Kyeong-young doesn’t just criticize; he offers a clear, albeit radical, alternative. He positions himself as a visionary who understands the fundamental flaws in systems that economists and politicians have long upheld. His direct challenge to established economic thought is striking.

전 세계가 케인스의 경제 이론을 했는데 세계 경제가 지금 위기에 직면해서 우리나라 경제도 위기야
The whole world has theorized about Keynes’s economic theory, but the world economy is now facing a crisis, so our economy is also in crisis.

허경영의 중산경제는 이런 케인스의 거시경제 이거 관치경제입니다. 루즈벨트가 많이 했죠. 루즈벨트가 관치경제 한 거 뭐예요? 뉴딜 정책 이거 했어요. 그러면 이것도 필요하고 이것도 필요하고 섞어야 되는데 우리는 정치를 경제를 이걸로 전 세계화했어. 전 세계가 하다 가다가 안 되니까 요게 왜 무너졌죠 요게 왜 무너져 이 사람을 전부 모방해서 전 세계 대통령들이 케인즈를 따라 하다가 왜 케인즈가 사라지고 요게 나타났죠 마지막에 요새 이걸로 돌았었죠
Heo Kyeong-young’s middle-class economy is this Keynesian macroeconomics, this government-controlled economy. Roosevelt did a lot of it. What did Roosevelt do with the government-controlled economy? The New Deal policy. So, this is needed and this is needed, and we need to mix it. We used politics and economy with this, and war was fought, but it didn’t work out. Why did this collapse? Why did this collapse? Everyone imitated this person, and presidents around the world imitated his individual tax, but why did individual wealth disappear and this appeared? Finally, these days, this is why I turned to this.

신자유주의 경제 쪽으로 이 시장 경제 쪽으로 돌아섰어 돌아섰는데 지금 이렇게 돌아섰다고 되냐 중산 경제는 허경영이 하는 중산주의는 뭡니까? 중산주의 경제는 요 경제와 요 경제를 섞은 거예요. 알겠죠 그중에서 좋은 것만 하는 거예요.
They turned to neoliberal economics, this market economy, but now that they’ve turned like this, is it okay? What is the middle-class economy that Heo Kyeong-young advocates? The middle-class economy is a mixture of this economy and that economy. You know, only the good ones among them.

The “Middle-Class Economy” and Quantitative Easing
Heo proposes a “Middle-Class Economy” that makes consumers king, not sellers or conglomerates. His flagship policy is bold quantitative easing: printing 1,500 trillion won to pay off all household and individual debt, making everyone’s debt zero. He argues that this will stimulate the economy by freeing people from interest payments, which he sees as a greater burden than inflation.

This is impressive because it’s a direct, radical solution to a pervasive problem. While economists typically fear inflation from such measures, Heo dismisses these concerns, prioritizing the immediate relief of public debt. His confidence in this approach, contrasting it with Japan’s and the US’s quantitative easing, highlights his unique perspective.

그러니까 내가 대통령 되면 제일 먼저 할 게 인플레이션을 우리나라를 과감하게 인플레이션을 일본보다 30년 후에 하는 게 아니라 이 년 있다가 대통령이 됐다 그러면 과감하게 올려 돈을 그렇게 할 정치인은 우리나라에 있어 없어요 없어요
So, if I become president, the first thing I will do is boldly raise inflation in our country. Instead of doing inflation 30 years after Japan, I waited two years and became president. So, there is no politics in our country that would boldly raise money like that. There is no politics.

돈을 자그마치 1500조를 찍어 이걸 가지고 서민 가계 부채 100프로 상환을 시켜 모든 사람들의 부채는 제로야 은행 이자가 안 나가 그러면 이거는 이자를 받고 빌려주나 무이자로 주는 거야 모든 돈을 갚아줘 버려 그러니까 빚이 있어 없어요 여러분 싹 가계 부채가 없어지죠
Let’s print a whopping 1,500 trillion won and use it to pay off 100% of the household debt of the common people. Everyone’s debt is zero. Banks don’t pay interest, so you have to borrow it with interest and give it to them interest-free. Pay off all your hard work. So there is no debt. Everyone, all your store debts will disappear.

싹 빚을 없앤 다음에 그 사람들이 빚을 없어져서 이자를 안 내는 거와 물가에서 어느 게 손해가 나겠어요 어느 게 이익이겠어요 물가가 약간 오르더라도 이자 안 내는 게 이익이야 10배가 더 이익이에요
After eliminating all debt, which would be more disadvantageous, not paying interest because debt is gone, or rising prices? Which would be more beneficial? Even if prices rise slightly, not paying interest is more beneficial. It’s 10 times more beneficial.

완전히 중산주의 그러니까 소비자를 왕으로 하는 경제 체제야 알겠습니까? 판매자를 왕으로 하는 게 아니고 여러분들 국민 소비자를 왕으로 하는 경제 체제가 중산경제야 알겠습니까?
It’s a completely middle-class economic system that makes consumers king. Do you understand? It’s not an economic system that makes sellers king, but where you, the citizens, are queens. This middle-class economy is an economic system.

Corruption and Mismanagement of National Budget
Heo vehemently criticizes the widespread corruption and mismanagement of the national budget by politicians and government officials. He cites examples like the Seoul bus companies receiving massive government subsidies while executives earn exorbitant salaries, and political parties receiving billions in state support. He claims that 70% of taxes are wasted due to such practices.

This is impressive because Heo provides concrete, detailed examples of alleged corruption, making his critique feel grounded and urgent. His willingness to name specific figures and institutions, even at personal risk, demonstrates his conviction and desire for radical change.

그자들 자 월급이 연봉이 보통 5억이야 퇴직금이 보통 30억이야 맞아 안맞아요 하는 일 없어 한 달에 한 두 번 얼굴 보여 상임감사 꼴 보기 어려워 그래 안 그래요 퇴직금이 40억이야 이거 뭐 하는 사람들이요 이게 전부 도둑놈 소굴이야 나를 죽여도 괜찮아요 말은 바로 해야 돼 이래 가지고 외채가 기하급수적으로 늘어나서 나라가 절단 나버린 거야
Their average annual salary is 500 million won. Their average severance pay is 3 billion won. Is that right? They don’t do anything. They only show their faces once or twice a month. It’s hard to look at the standing auditor. Is that right? Their severance pay is 4 billion won. What kind of people do these things? This is all a den of thieves. You can kill me. We have to do it right. Why is this exponentially increasing and causing the country to fall apart?

버스 회사가 평균 적자가 1년에 60억이야 그래 이거를 국가가 보상해 줘요 그러니까 육육 이 36 맞죠 3200억이 똑같이 놓놔져 맞아 안 맞아요 그런데 여기에서 임원들 임금만 빼면 적자가 아니야 임원들 임금을 왜 버스 회사 운전사보다 많이 열 몇 배를 몇십 배를 받아 가냐 이 말이에요
The average deficit of a bus company is 6 billion won a year. The government compensates for this. So, 66 is 36, right? 320 billion won is the same thing. Right or wrong. But here, if you just exclude the executives’ wages, it’s not a deficit. Why are executives receiving tens or even tens of times more than bus drivers?

나는 이 미친 나라가 아닌가 싶어 이 사람들은 380억 안 줘도 자기들 후 당원들한테 당비 걷어다가 당 운영해야 돼 맞아 안 맞아요 그러면서 국가에다 당원은 200만 명이래 한 사람한테 만 원씩만 받아도 200억이야 말 같지 않은 소리 좀 하지 말아요 사기치지 마라 그래 그게 무슨 당이야 국가에서 1년에 380억 자 새 정치 360억 이게 말이 돼요
I wonder if this country is crazy. These people, even if they don’t give 38 billion, they have to run the party by collecting party dues from their party members. Yes, no, that’s right. And yet, they say the country has 2 million party members. Even if they only collect 10,000 won from each person, that’s 20 billion. Stop talking nonsense. Stop scamming them. What kind of party is that? The country spends 38 billion won a year.

국가의 예산에서 잘못 나가는 돈 다 끊어버리면 주고도 남아 안 남아요 이거 요런 것이 작은것 몇 개냐면 몇 만 가지가 돼 몇 만 가지가 요것만 주는 게 아닙니다 시민단체 정부말 잘 듣는 단체들 돈 줘 안 줘 나는 입에서 말이 안 나와 시민단체가 국가에 지원받는 단체가 그게 시민단체예요
If you cut off all the money that’s being spent incorrectly from the country’s budget, even if I die, there’s nothing left. Oh, if this and this are small, how many are there now? There are tens of thousands. They don’t just give this with tens of thousands. Information on civic groups. Groups that listen well. Give me money. Don’t give it. I can’t say anything. Civic groups are groups that receive support from the state. That’s a civic group.

나는 우리나라 사람들 보면 정말 국가 예산 짠 놈은 전부 나중에 사형이야 사형 수많은 사람이 받아 가야 될 국민의 돈을 다 난도질 해먹어 처먹은 거야
When I look at the people of our country, all the people who planned the national budget should be executed later. They ate up all the people’s money that should have been received.

The Problem of Financial and Real Estate Real-Name Systems
Heo argues that South Korea’s financial and real estate real-name systems are detrimental to the economy. He contrasts this with Japan, which lacks such systems, allowing individuals to hide wealth and encouraging children to be self-sufficient rather than waiting for inheritance. He claims that these systems lead to capital outflow and family disputes.

This is impressive because Heo challenges a policy often seen as a cornerstone of transparency and fairness. His argument that these systems, intended to prevent corruption, actually stifle economic activity and create social problems, is a contrarian viewpoint that forces a re-evaluation of their true impact.

일본이 지금 저렇게 승승장구하는 건 IMF 일본이 금융식 실명제 있습니까? 없습니까? 없어요 일본이 금융실명제 없어요 그럼 우리는 금융실명제 때문에 우리 경제 망했어요 또 부동산 실명제 없어요 우리는 부동산 실명제 때문에 망해요
The reason Japan is so successful now is because of the IMF. Does Japan have a real-name financial system? No. Japan does not have a real-name financial system. Our economy was ruined because of the real-name financial system. Also, there is no real-name real estate system. We are ruined because of the real-name real estate system.

한국은 100억 넣어 놓으면 아들이 알아 몰라요 금융실명제야 아들이 알아요 아버지 죽을 날짜만 기다리는 거야 일 안 해
In Korea, if it takes 10 billion years, the son will know. It’s a real-name financial system. The son knows. He just waits for the day his father dies. He doesn’t work.

그러면 어떻게든 저 아버지를 죽여 없앨까 아버지가 언제쯤 돌아가지 않으실까 이런 거 연구하죠 절대 일할 생각 안 합니다 이런 사람 많아요
Then they research things like how to kill their father or when their father will pass away. They never think about working. There are many people like this.

그래서 자식들이 다 아버지의 금융 상태를 알고 있어 가족이 다 알아 그러니까 이게 집안이 여러 가지 문제가 있어요 그래서 우리는 홍콩이나 스위스나 일본 같은 미국 같은 금융실명제 하지 않는 나라에다 돈을 갖다가 숨기는 거야
So the children all know their father’s financial situation and the family tells them to do it. So there are various problems in the family. So we went to Hong Kong, Switzerland, Japan, and countries like the US that don’t have a real-name financial system, and we don’t have money. They hide it.

The Importance of “Practicality” over “Justification”
Heo praises President Park Chung-hee for prioritizing “practicality” (실리) over “justification” (명분) in economic development, specifically regarding the 800 million dollar settlement from Japan. He contrasts this with other Asian countries that squandered their funds and with later South Korean administrations that he believes focused too much on “justification” at the expense of economic well-being.

This is impressive because Heo reinterprets a controversial historical event through an economic lens, highlighting the long-term impact of leadership decisions. His argument that Park’s pragmatic approach, despite its unpopularity at the time, laid the foundation for South Korea’s economic growth, offers a unique perspective on national development.

박정희 대통령이 명분보다는 실리다 우리가 일본에 역사를 끝내고 느그하고 나하고 철천지 원수 이승만이는 철천지 원수 일본 돈 안 받는다 그래 안 받았어요 근데 박정희 대통령은 가만 보니까 돈이 없네 경제 발전할려니까 일본이 우리한테 괴롭힌 게 있네 받아내자 맞아 안 맞아요 가서 협상해서 얼마 받아요 8억 불이 당시의 돈이 이게 적은 돈입니까? 엄청난 돈이야 이거를 담판에 그냥 받아내서 6억 불은 전쟁 피해 2억 불은 차관 장기차관 이거 가지고 우리 경제가 살아난 거예요
President Park Chung-hee prioritized practicality over justification. We ended history with Japan. You and I, Cheolcheon and I, are enemies. Syngman Rhee slowly became enemies. We won’t accept money from Japan. So, we didn’t accept it. But President Park Chung-hee, if you look closely, there’s no money. When he tried to develop the economy, Japan had been harassing someone. Let’s get it. Is that right? Go and negotiate. How much do you want? 800 million dollars was that a small amount at the time? It was a huge amount. Let’s just negotiate and get 600 million won. 200 million won for war damage was a loan and a long-term loan. With this, our economy was revived.

박정희 대통령을 왜 여러분이 기억해야 되냐 하면 8억 불을 받아가 박정희 대통령이 막 정치자금으로 썼다면 우리는 한 일회담을 비난할 수 있어요 전 국민이 비난하는데 박정희 대통령이 그걸 해야 우리가 살아 박정희 대통령의 비서실장도 각하 안 하는 게 좋지 않겠어요
The reason you should remember President Park Chung-hee is because the 800 million dollars was like the sea. If President Park Chung-hee had been politically active, we could have criticized the Korea-Japan talks. The entire nation was criticizing President Park Chung-hee. Wouldn’t it be better for us to survive and not even President Park Chung-hee’s chief of staff? Everyone was against it, so why are you blowing it alone? We have to do it.

그런데 우리는 얼마예요 2만 8000 불이야 어 그러니까 우리는 많이 올라갔어 안올라 갔 우리는 몇 백배가 올라갔는데 이 사람들은 돈을 닦아 써버린 거야
But how much is ours? It’s 28,000 dollars. And we didn’t go up much, so we went up hundreds of times. These people wiped out that money.

그래서 박정희 대통령은 이 돈을 정말 잘 썼다 아주 청렴결백하게 돈을 써서 우리 경제를 살렸으나 다른 나라 태국이나 필리핀이나 미얀마나 월남이나 이 사람들은 그 돈 가지고 정치인들이 정치 자금으로 다 써 버렸어
So President Park Chung-hee really spent this money well. He used that money with integrity and saved our economy, but politicians in other countries like Thailand, the Philippines, Myanmar, Vietnam, etc., used all that money for political purposes.

The “Constant” vs. “Coefficient” View of Economics
Heo distinguishes his economic approach as based on “constants” (상수) rather than the “coefficients” (계수) taught in universities. He believes that wealth should not grow infinitely for individuals but should be capped, with excess funds returned to the nation for public welfare. He uses the example of a successful pharmaceutical company chairman whose personal wealth skyrockets, arguing that a significant portion should be redistributed.

This is impressive because Heo introduces a philosophical dimension to economics, moving beyond mere numbers to question the fundamental principles of wealth accumulation. His “constant” idea, which suggests a natural limit to individual wealth, is a radical challenge to capitalist ideals and highlights his vision for a more equitable society.

우리나라 경제학자들은 경제를 이 서울대학교 나온 우리나라 경제학자들은 우리나라 경제를 뭘로 보냐면 대학에서 배울 때 대학에서 배울 때 계수로 배워요 일 플러스 일 은 이 다 이렇게 배워 맞아 안맞아요 그런데 허경영은 어떻게 배워요 상수로 배워 일 플러스 일 은 일 이다
Our economists, who graduated from Seoul National University, view our economy as coefficients when they learn in college. They learn that 1+1 is 2. Is that right? But how does Heo Kyeong-young learn? They learn with constants. 1+1 is 1.

일 플러스 일 은 왜 일 이 됐을까? 그 사람은 국가에 그만큼 기여한 걸로 남아야지 포인트나 많이 가져가고 그래 안 그래요 세금 포인트 그 돈을 국가에 거의 많이 내놔야 돼 그 세금 포인트 가져가고 나머지는 국민들한테 자기 직원들한테 복지에 써야 돼 안 써야 돼 그러니까 일 플러스 일 이 돼도 자기의 것은 크게 변동이 없다 이 말이야
Why did 1+1 become 1? That person should remain with the amount of contribution he made to the country. He takes a lot of points. Is that right? He should give most of that tax point money to the country. He should take the points now and use the rest for welfare for the people and his employees. He shouldn’t use it. So even if 1+1 becomes 1, his own doesn’t change much.

자본주의는 자꾸자꾸 부자가 요렇게 돼 안 돼 에 그러면 지금 현재 전 세계 5프로가 전 세계 돈의 90프로를 가지고 있어요 맞아 안 맞아요 그러면 조금 몇 년 더 있으면 전 세계 5%가 전 세계 돈의 95%를 가지게 돼요 맞아 안 맞아요 이게 올라가면 올라가지 내려올 일이 있어 없어요 그러니까 전 세계 인류는 노예야 노예 자본의 노예
Capitalism that goes up like this keeps getting richer. It can’t be like this. Right now, 5% of the world owns 90% of the world’s money. Is that right, that’s not right? Then, in a few more years, 5% of the world will own 95% of the world’s money. Is that right, that’s not right? If it goes up, it won’t go down. So, all of humanity in the world is slaves. Slaves. Slaves to capital.

Economic Paradigms and Global Crises

The global economy has cycled through various theories, from Keynesian macroeconomics to microeconomics, eventually leading to periods of crisis such as the IMF bailout. Our economy, like the rest of the world, faces significant challenges. Economists often present these issues in overly complex ways, causing confusion. My aim today is to simplify this understanding. We have seen a trend where prices rise while the value of money falls, a phenomenon known as inflation. This can lead to stagflation, where rising prices are coupled with economic decline, or agflation, where rising agricultural prices also contribute to economic downturn.

Japan, for instance, successfully stimulated inflation through macroeconomic policies. Their Prime Minister intentionally depreciated the yen to boost exports, a strategy that proved effective. In contrast, our politicians have often hesitated, leaving the economy to market forces out of fear, which has not yielded similar success. Japan’s proactive approach involved instructing banks to print trillions of yen and distribute it to the populace, thereby lowering the currency’s value and enhancing export competitiveness. This demonstrates a genius-level economic strategy that traditional economists often fail to grasp. Japan’s economic foresight places them decades ahead, and we often find ourselves following their trajectory, such as with real estate bubbles.

  1. The Perils of Reckless Spending and the Vision for a New Economy
    The era of reckless spending, as seen in Japan, eventually leads to an aging population with diminished purchasing power, with wealth often flowing out of the country. Japan’s policy of quantitative easing—printing vast amounts of money—was a deliberate move to stimulate the economy. My presidency would initiate a similar, bold inflation strategy, not decades after Japan, but immediately. I propose printing 1,500 trillion won to completely settle all household debt for ordinary citizens, making everyone debt-free. This would eliminate the burden of interest payments that plague the working and middle classes, allowing them to live without financial anxiety.

Foreign banks currently extract significant wealth from our nation through interest payments. My plan involves printing 1,500 trillion won to clear 1,300 trillion won in household debt and all other individual liabilities. This would free citizens from the perpetual cycle of debt, allowing them to thrive on pensions and other benefits. The current political focus on deflation—preventing price increases—is misguided and detrimental to the populace. Such policies, driven by short-sighted officials, are leading our nation to ruin.

  1. Unmasking Systemic Corruption and Mismanagement
    The 1,500 trillion won required to clear household debt is not an arbitrary figure; it accounts for current debt and projected increases. Much of our nation’s money is hidden in underground caches or smuggled overseas. By settling these debts, we can revive those on the brink of despair, offering them a fresh start without interest. My economic acumen, far surpassing that of conventional economists, allows me to understand and rectify these systemic issues.

Our nation’s economic woes stem from politicians and bureaucrats who lack real-world business experience. They prioritize the interests of banks, which thrive on increasing household debt, over the well-being of citizens. The surge in household debt began with civilian governments, which encouraged excessive credit card use, leading to a snowball effect that continues to this day. Unlike the disciplined era of military leadership, civilian administrations have allowed rampant corruption and self-enrichment.

Consider the example of Seoul’s 66 bus companies. These private entities receive 320 billion won annually in government subsidies, ostensibly to cover deficits. However, their executives, often political appointees or their relatives, earn exorbitant salaries—up to 550 million won annually, with severance packages reaching billions. These companies are rarely audited, and when they are, the auditors are often chosen by the companies themselves. This system creates artificial deficits, allowing executives to siphon off public funds while bus drivers, who face daily risks, earn a mere 40 million won annually and often pay for accidents out of pocket. This is a clear example of a “den of thieves” that drains national resources.

  1. Reforming Political Spending and National Priorities
    The waste extends to political parties, which receive tens of billions of won in government subsidies annually, despite having millions of members who could fund them through dues. This is an absurd misuse of taxpayer money. Civic groups, too, receive state support, undermining their role as independent watchdogs. The total annual expenditure on National Assembly members and their aides amounts to nearly 900 billion won, with local government officials adding another 1.3 trillion won. This colossal waste could be eliminated by requiring politicians to serve without compensation, as is the practice in some other developed nations like the United States, where political parties operate with minimal overhead.

My proposals, such as reducing the number of National Assembly members, have been plagiarized by other politicians, yet they fail to grasp the underlying principles. The nation’s budget is riddled with such inefficiencies, amounting to approximately 250 trillion won in wasted funds annually. This money, along with an estimated 900 trillion won in underground funds, could be redirected to benefit the populace.

  1. The Middle-Class Economy: A Synthesis of Ideologies
    My economic philosophy, the Middle-Class Economy, is a synthesis of various economic theories, taking the best elements from each. It is neither a purely government-controlled economy, like Roosevelt’s New Deal, nor a completely free market system. Instead, it is a consumer-centric model where citizens are empowered as the “queens” of the economy, ensuring that the benefits of business success are shared broadly, rather than being hoarded by a select few. This approach aims to elevate all citizens into the middle class.

The current system, characterized by austerity measures for the public while those in power engage in wasteful spending, is unsustainable. China’s economic rise, for example, was driven by a pragmatic approach that prioritized industrialization over immediate democracy, a concept I articulated decades ago. Deng Xiaoping’s “black cat, white cat” philosophy, which emphasized practical results over ideological purity, was influenced by Hayek’s advocacy for market-oriented reforms. Hayek advised China to allow farmers to sell their produce freely in the market, a move that revitalized the Chinese economy.

  1. Reimagining Wealth Distribution and National Identity
    While China embraced capitalism, it did not achieve a middle-class society; instead, it created extreme wealth alongside extreme poverty. My vision includes setting an upper limit on personal wealth, with any excess taxed and returned to the nation. This would prevent individuals from accumulating infinite wealth, ensuring a more equitable distribution. For instance, if a pharmaceutical company chairman earns trillions, a significant portion should be allocated to the country and its employees, rather than being hoarded. This is a shift from a coefficient-based economic understanding, where 1+1=2, to a constant-based understanding, where 1+1=1, signifying that individual wealth should be proportional to one’s contribution to society, with the surplus benefiting the collective.

The current global trend sees a tiny percentage of the population controlling a vast majority of the world’s wealth, effectively enslaving humanity to capital. My approach aims to create a more balanced economic curve, ensuring sustainable growth for all. This is rooted in fundamental numerical principles, where the core elements of existence are contained within the numbers 1 through 5, representing the five elements, with Korea at the center. This philosophy guides our interactions with other nations and informs our economic policies.

  1. Rectifying Historical Injustices and Fostering National Pride
    Beyond economic reform, we must address historical injustices. The issue of comfort women and forced laborers from the Japanese colonial era requires proper compensation. While past administrations offered only symbolic gestures, my government would provide substantial reparations—hundreds of millions of won per individual, including the deceased—along with monthly benefits for national merit. This would fully address their grievances and restore their dignity. We should not engage in endless disputes with Japan over these matters, as President Park Chung-hee wisely resolved them with a comprehensive agreement and received 800 million dollars, which was then used to build our nation’s infrastructure, such as Pohang Iron and Steel Company and highways.

Other Asian nations that received similar aid squandered it on political luxuries, while President Park’s integrity ensured that every dollar was invested in economic development, transforming Korea from one of the poorest nations to a global economic power. This pragmatic approach, prioritizing national interest over mere rhetoric, is what truly builds a nation.

Our national identity, rooted in the Cheonbugyeong (a sacred text), signifies a people descended from heaven, possessing unique spiritual heritage. It is shameful to dwell on past humiliations for monetary gain, as it undermines our national pride. We must learn from Japan’s commitment to promises and their high standards of etiquette, which have propelled them to a high-income economy. Our nation, currently stuck in a cycle of wasteful spending and short-sighted policies, must prioritize genuine economic development and ethical governance.

  1. A Call for Fiscal Responsibility and National Renewal
    The current system incentivizes civil servants to waste budget allocations rather than save them, leading to a continuous cycle of unnecessary spending. This lack of fiscal discipline is a national tragedy. We must cultivate a culture of integrity and accountability, where leaders are judged not by their rhetoric but by their tangible contributions to national prosperity.

While other nations like Japan and the United States implement quantitative easing to stimulate their economies, we cling to austerity, which stifles growth and exports. Our export figures have plummeted, a historical low under the current administration. This demonstrates a profound lack of understanding among our leaders, who rely on calculators rather than genuine economic insight. Our national debt, including household, local government, and public enterprise debt, totals an astronomical 6,700 trillion won—18 times our GDP. This unsustainable burden demands immediate and radical reform.

My presidency would prioritize the welfare of our citizens, ensuring that essential programs like childcare are fully funded. I would retroactively provide 30 million won for each child born in the last decade, recognizing the importance of supporting families. Furthermore, I would recover trillions of won annually from tax cuts given to conglomerates and from fines imposed on economic criminals, who currently enjoy lenient treatment. This wealth would be redirected to pay off public debt and invest in national development, ensuring that the benefits of economic activity are shared by all.

The Truth of Keynesian Macroeconomics, Hayekian Microeconomics, and Huh Kyung-young’s Zhongsanism

  1. Economic Shifts and the Rise of Zhongsanism (중산주의)
    The global economy has undergone significant transformations, moving from Keynesian macroeconomics to microeconomics, and then to a market economy. This cyclical shift has been observed repeatedly, with each phase presenting unique challenges and opportunities. For instance, the Asian Financial Crisis (IMF Crisis) led to a return to certain economic principles, only for them to be overturned again. The current economic climate is severe, characterized by deflation, where prices decrease, and the value of money increases. Conversely, inflation is marked by rising prices and a falling money value. A more complex scenario is stagflation, where prices rise, but the economy declines, and agflation, where rising agricultural prices coincide with economic downturn.

Japan’s recent economic strategy provides a compelling example of intentional inflation. The Japanese Prime Minister successfully engineered inflation, causing prices to rise and the yen’s value to fall. This was a deliberate state-controlled economic policy aimed at boosting exports by making Japanese goods cheaper internationally. This strategy proved successful for Japan. In contrast, other nations have often hesitated to implement such bold policies, fearing the consequences of a market-driven economy. The concept of Zhongsanism (중산주의), as proposed by Huh Kyung-young, seeks to integrate the beneficial aspects of both macroeconomics and microeconomics. It is neither a purely government-controlled economy nor a completely free market system. Instead, Zhongsanism (중산주의) prioritizes the consumer, aiming to create an economic system where all citizens thrive, rather than solely benefiting businesses or conglomerates.

  1. The Vision of Quantitative Easing and Debt Annihilation
    A radical economic proposal involves implementing quantitative easing (양적완화) on an unprecedented scale. This entails printing a substantial amount of currency, such as 1,500 trillion Korean Won, to completely eradicate household debt. Under this plan, every citizen’s debt would be reduced to zero, eliminating the burden of interest payments. This approach contrasts sharply with traditional banking practices, where interest is a primary component of loans. The argument is that the working and middle classes are more severely impacted by interest payments than by rising prices. By eliminating debt, individuals would be freed from financial strain, allowing them to live comfortably on pensions and other benefits.

This strategy is presented as a direct solution to the economic woes caused by previous administrations. It is asserted that a significant portion of national taxes is mismanaged or wasted, with vast sums hidden in underground funds or funneled into corrupt practices. By rectifying these inefficiencies and recovering misappropriated funds, the government could generate sufficient resources to implement such a debt relief program. The current system, where economists often rely on complex theories and numerical models without practical business experience, is deemed inadequate. Instead, a pragmatic approach that directly addresses the financial struggles of the populace is advocated. This bold vision aims to transform the national economy by prioritizing the welfare of the common people over the interests of financial institutions and political elites.

  1. Critiques of Current Economic Practices and Political Corruption
    The current economic landscape is heavily criticized for its systemic flaws and pervasive corruption. A significant concern is the accumulation of household debt, which is attributed to past political decisions, such as the aggressive promotion of credit card usage. This policy, intended to stimulate the economy, inadvertently led to a massive increase in personal debt. The rise in household debt is depicted as a snowballing effect that began with civilian governments, contrasting sharply with earlier periods where such debt was minimal.

Furthermore, public enterprises and government-supported organizations are identified as major sources of financial waste and corruption. For example, the Seoul city bus companies, despite being private entities, receive substantial annual subsidies from the city government. These subsidies are allegedly misused, with executives receiving exorbitant salaries and severance packages, often far exceeding those of bus drivers. These executives are often relatives of those in power, perpetuating a cycle of nepotism and financial mismanagement. Audits of these companies are infrequent and often conducted by auditors recommended by the companies themselves, raising serious questions about accountability. This systemic corruption extends to political parties, which receive significant government funding despite having the means to operate through membership dues. Such practices are seen as a betrayal of public trust and a drain on national resources, contributing to the overall economic decline.

  1. The Impact of Financial Real-Name Systems and Historical Lessons
    The implementation of financial real-name systems (금융실명제) and real estate real-name systems (부동산실명제) is identified as a significant factor contributing to economic decline. While these systems aim for transparency, they inadvertently lead to capital flight, as individuals seek to hide their wealth in countries without such stringent regulations, like Hong Kong, Switzerland, Japan, and the United States. This outflow of capital results in substantial economic losses, prioritizing nominal justification over practical economic benefit.

Historical examples are drawn upon to illustrate the importance of pragmatism over mere justification. President Park Chung-hee’s approach to post-war reparations from Japan is highlighted as a case in point. Despite strong public opposition and historical grievances, President Park prioritized economic development by accepting the reparations, which were then strategically invested in infrastructure projects like the Pohang Iron and Steel Company and highways. This pragmatic decision, though controversial, laid the foundation for South Korea’s economic revival. In contrast, other nations that received similar aid often squandered it on political patronage and personal luxuries, failing to achieve sustained economic growth. This historical lesson underscores the argument that true leadership involves making difficult, practical decisions that benefit the nation’s long-term prosperity, even if they are unpopular in the short term.

  1. The Philosophy of Constants and the Critique of Capitalism
    A fundamental critique of conventional economics lies in its reliance on coefficients (계수) rather than constants (상수). Traditional economists, often educated in academic settings, view economic growth as an additive process where 1+1 equals 2. This perspective, it is argued, leads to an unchecked accumulation of wealth by a small percentage of the population, resulting in vast disparities. Currently, 5% of the world’s population controls 90% of its wealth, a trend projected to worsen. This system, akin to capital slavery (자본의 노예), is deemed unsustainable and inherently unjust.

In contrast, a philosophy based on constants (상수) posits that 1+1 equals 1. This means that while individuals can contribute significantly to the nation’s wealth, their personal accumulation should be capped, with excess wealth redirected to the public good through taxes and welfare programs. This approach ensures that wealth is distributed more equitably, fostering a healthier society where everyone can lead a dignified life. The example of a pharmaceutical company chairman, who amassed immense wealth from a successful contract, is used to illustrate this point. While such achievements are celebrated, the argument is that a substantial portion of this wealth should be returned to the nation and its employees, rather than being hoarded. This concept is rooted in ancient philosophical principles, such as the Five Elements (오행) and the Cheonbugyeong (천부경), which emphasize balance and interconnectedness. These principles suggest that a truly harmonious society operates on fundamental, unchanging values, rather than the volatile and often exploitative dynamics of unchecked capitalism.

  1. National Budget Mismanagement and Social Welfare Initiatives
    The national budget is plagued by widespread mismanagement and wasteful spending, extending beyond the bus companies to all public enterprises and government-supported organizations. This pervasive inefficiency results in hundreds of trillions of Korean Won being squandered annually. A significant portion of this waste is attributed to the practice of civil servants deliberately exhausting their allocated budgets by year-end to secure similar or larger budgets for the following year. This behavior, driven by a flawed incentive structure, leads to unnecessary expenditures on projects like sewage system overhauls and subway line constructions, even when existing infrastructure is perfectly functional.

To address these issues, a comprehensive reform of the national budget is proposed. This includes eliminating wasteful spending, reallocating funds, and implementing social welfare initiatives. For instance, it is proposed that the government retroactively provide 30 million Korean Won to families for each child born in the past decade, with additional payments for multiple children. This policy aims to boost the country’s critically low birth rate and alleviate financial burdens on families. Furthermore, it is suggested that tax cuts for conglomerates, which amount to hundreds of trillions annually, be reevaluated. Instead of lenient fines for economic criminals, stricter penalties, including asset confiscation, are advocated to ensure that corporate wealth contributes to public funds. These measures, it is argued, would not only generate substantial revenue but also foster a more equitable society, where the benefits of economic growth are shared more broadly among the populace.

Huh Kyung-young’s Economic Philosophy: A Blueprint for National Prosperity

The Evolution of Economic Paradigms and the Crisis of Conventional Systems
The global economy has cycled through various paradigms, from Keynesian macroeconomics to microeconomics, eventually leading to the market economy. This progression has been marked by significant crises, such as the IMF bailout, which forced nations to repeatedly re-evaluate their economic approaches. The current global economic landscape is fraught with peril, and the national economy faces a severe crisis. Economists often present complex diagnoses, leading to public confusion. This discourse aims to clarify the economic trends observed until 2015 and to project future trajectories. The prevailing trends indicate rising prices and a decline in the value of money, leading to stagflation, where prices rise while the economy contracts, and agflation, characterized by rising agricultural prices and economic decline.

Japan’s Inflationary Experiment and Korea’s Economic Stagnation
Japan’s Prime Minister successfully engineered inflation by intentionally depreciating the yen, thereby boosting exports. This state-controlled economic strategy, known as quantitative easing, involved instructing banks to print trillions of yen and distribute it to the populace. This policy led to a sharp fall in the currency’s value, significantly enhancing export competitiveness. In contrast, Korean politicians have adopted a market-economy-centric approach, often reverting to it out of fear, particularly after events like the IMF crisis. This reluctance to boldly implement inflationary policies, unlike Japan, has left Korea lagging by approximately 30 years. The nation consistently follows Japan’s economic cycles, from real estate bubbles to other trends, indicating a reactive rather than proactive economic stance.

The Vision of Bold Inflation and Debt Eradication
A radical economic shift is proposed, advocating for the immediate implementation of bold inflationary policies, rather than waiting decades as Japan did. This involves printing a substantial sum, specifically 1,500 trillion won, to completely repay all household debt, rendering every citizen debt-free. This policy would eliminate the burden of interest payments for the working and middle classes, who currently struggle with rising prices and interest obligations. While banks primarily serve corporations with interest-bearing loans, ordinary citizens are disproportionately affected. This bold move would free individuals from financial servitude, allowing them to live comfortably on pensions and other benefits, thereby simplifying national household management.

The Perils of Deflationary Policies and Foreign Economic Influence
Current political discourse often emphasizes deflationary measures, aiming to stabilize prices. However, such policies are deemed detrimental, leading to the demise of the populace. The existing economic framework, where citizens deposit money in banks, ultimately benefits foreign entities, as many banks are foreign-owned. This results in a continuous outflow of national wealth through interest payments to foreign countries, preventing citizens from spending their earnings domestically. The proposed solution involves printing 1,500 trillion won to clear 1,300 trillion won in household debt and other individual liabilities. This would liberate citizens from debt, allowing them to thrive without the constant worry of financial obligations.

Unmasking Systemic Corruption and Misallocated National Budget
A significant portion of the national budget is mismanaged and hidden, often in high-denomination currency, which then flows into the underground economy or is smuggled overseas. This hidden wealth, estimated at 900 trillion won, could be utilized to resolve the nation’s financial woes. The current system, riddled with corruption, allows for the misallocation of funds, leading to widespread debt and despair among ordinary citizens. By tapping into these hidden reserves and implementing a debt eradication program, individuals on the brink of suicide due to overwhelming debt could be saved. This approach requires a profound understanding of the economy, far beyond the capabilities of conventional economists who rely solely on numerical calculations.

The Critique of Conventional Economic Leadership and Policy Failures
The nation’s economic leadership, often comprising individuals with academic backgrounds but no practical business experience, is criticized for its inability to manage the economy effectively. These economists, who merely engage in “number games,” are seen as detached from the realities of the market. Their policies, influenced by high-ranking bank executives, prioritize increasing household debt to benefit the banking sector. This rigged system, likened to a “Go-Stop” game, has led to the accumulation of 1,500 trillion won in household debt, a direct consequence of political failures. The government’s past initiatives, such as stimulating the card market, inadvertently led to a card crisis and an exponential increase in household debt under civilian administrations.

The Erosion of Public Trust: Mismanagement in Public and Private Sectors
The mismanagement extends to public and quasi-public enterprises, where executives, often political appointees, receive exorbitant salaries and severance packages without performing substantial work. For instance, Seoul’s 66 bus companies receive 320 billion won annually in government subsidies, ostensibly to cover deficits. However, these deficits are largely attributed to the inflated salaries of executives, many of whom are family members of those in power. Audits, meant to ensure accountability, are infrequent and conducted by auditors recommended by the bus companies themselves, perpetuating a cycle of corruption. This systemic waste of taxpayer money, coupled with the exploitation of bus drivers who earn significantly less and bear the brunt of accident costs, highlights a profound breakdown in governance.

The Scandal of Political Party Subsidies and Wasteful Spending
Political parties receive substantial government subsidies, despite claiming millions of members who could fund their operations through party dues. For example, the Saenuri Party received 38 billion won in 2014, and other parties also received billions. This practice is deemed nonsensical and fraudulent, as these funds could otherwise be used for public welfare. Furthermore, civic groups, which are supposed to act as watchdogs, also receive state support, compromising their independence. The total amount of money wasted through such channels, including the annual budget for National Assembly members and their aides, is staggering, reaching trillions of won. This rampant misallocation of funds suggests that a significant portion of national taxes is effectively “fake” spending.

The Call for Radical Fiscal Reform and Accountability
The current system of funding political parties and National Assembly members is criticized as wasteful and unnecessary. It is proposed that politicians should serve without compensation, relying on donations for their staff’s salaries, similar to the American model where political parties operate with minimal overhead. The current practice of providing substantial salaries and allowances to politicians, coupled with the lack of accountability for national budget planning, is seen as a betrayal of the public trust. The assertion is that the nation’s financial problems stem not from a lack of money, but from an abundance of “thieves” within the political establishment. This necessitates a radical overhaul of fiscal management and a stringent accountability framework for all public officials.

The Legacy of Financial Real-Name Systems and Economic Decline
Japan’s economic success is attributed, in part, to its lack of a real-name financial system, which allows individuals to accumulate wealth discreetly, fostering self-sufficiency among younger generations. In contrast, Korea’s real-name financial and real estate systems expose personal wealth, leading to various societal problems, including family disputes and a disincentive to work. This transparency encourages individuals to anticipate inheritances rather than pursue productive careers. Consequently, wealth flows out of Korea to countries like Hong Kong, Switzerland, Japan, and the United States, which offer financial anonymity. This prioritization of “cause” (명분) over “substance” (실리) has resulted in significant economic losses for the nation.

Park Chung-hee’s Pragmatism vs. Kim Young-sam’s Idealism
President Kim Young-sam’s policies, particularly the implementation of the real-name financial system and the demolition of the Central Government Complex, are identified as pivotal moments that led to Korea’s economic decline. These actions, driven by a focus on “cause” or idealism, are contrasted with President Park Chung-hee’s pragmatic approach. Park Chung-hee, despite historical grievances, prioritized economic development by securing $800 million in aid from Japan. This fund was meticulously invested in infrastructure projects like Pohang Iron and Steel Company and highways, rather than being squandered on political funds or luxurious government buildings, as was the case in other Asian nations that received similar aid. This strategic investment transformed Korea from one of the poorest nations to a global economic power, while other countries that misused their funds remained underdeveloped.

The Decline of Democracy and the Rise of “Bean Powder” Families
The democratic governments that followed the military regimes, specifically those led by Kim Young-sam, Kim Dae-jung, Roh Moo-hyun, Lee Myung-bak, and Park Geun-hye, are blamed for the nation’s economic downturn. These administrations, characterized by corruption and a focus on “democratization,” are seen as having dismantled the economic progress achieved under previous leadership. The term “bean powder family” (콩가루 집안) is used to describe the fragmented state of society under these democratic governments, implying a loss of national cohesion and prosperity. The current economic situation is deemed beyond rescue, necessitating a radical shift in governance.

The Promise of Quantitative Easing and Middle-Class Economics
A future under Huh Kyung-young’s presidency envisions a transformative economic policy centered on quantitative easing. This involves printing 1,500 trillion won to stimulate the economy, similar to the strategies employed by the United States and Japan. Unlike the US, where printed dollars often flow into foreign basements, preventing domestic inflation, Korea’s approach would directly address national debt. The current austerity measures are criticized as detrimental, leading to market stagnation and economic decline. The proposed “middle-class economics” (중산주의 경제) is a hybrid system, combining the best aspects of Keynesian macroeconomics and market economics, with a core principle of making consumers, not sellers, the “kings” or “queens” of the economy. This approach aims to ensure that all citizens, not just conglomerates, benefit from economic prosperity.

China’s Pragmatic Economic Rise and Hayek’s Influence
China’s economic rise is attributed to a pragmatic approach, famously encapsulated by Deng Xiaoping’s “black cat, white cat” philosophy, which prioritizes economic results over ideological purity. This strategy, originally conceived by Huh Kyung-young, advocated for temporarily concealing democracy to foster industrialization. In 1973, Deng Xiaoping invited economist Hayek, who advised him to liberalize agricultural markets, allowing farmers to sell their produce directly. This market-oriented reform, a departure from communist collectivization, rapidly revitalized the Chinese economy. This demonstrates the importance of practical economic solutions over rigid ideological adherence. However, even with its capitalist transformation, China’s economy remains highly unequal, with extreme wealth and poverty, failing to achieve a middle-class society.

The Flaws of Unregulated Capitalism and the Need for Wealth Limits
Unregulated capitalism, as seen in China, leads to extreme disparities between the rich and the poor. A fundamental tenet of Huh Kyung-young’s economic philosophy is the imposition of an upper limit on personal wealth. Any amount exceeding this limit would be collected as taxes by the state. This policy aims to prevent the excessive accumulation of wealth by a few, ensuring a more equitable distribution. The example of Hanmi Pharmaceutical’s chairman, who amassed trillions of won through stock value increases, illustrates the current system’s flaws. While such individuals are lauded for their success, their vast fortunes are seen as “gum money” compared to the needs of the general populace. The current system allows individuals to take “infinite amounts,” leading to societal imbalance.

The Constant vs. Coefficient in Economic Thought
Conventional economists, often graduates of elite universities, approach economics through “coefficients,” where 1+1 equals 2. This linear thinking fails to account for the broader societal impact of wealth accumulation. In contrast, Huh Kyung-young’s economic philosophy operates on “constants,” where 1+1 equals 1. This means that an individual’s wealth should be proportional to their contribution to the nation, with excess wealth channeled back to the country through taxes and welfare programs for employees and citizens. This approach ensures that while individuals can live healthy lives, their personal fortunes do not grow exponentially, preventing the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few. The current global trend, where 5% of the population controls 90% of the world’s wealth, is unsustainable and leads to a society of “slaves to capital.”

The Fundamental Numbers of the Cheonbugyeong and Zhongshan Economy
The concept of “fundamental numbers” from the Cheonbugyeong, an ancient Korean scripture, is introduced to explain the principles of the Zhongshan economy. This philosophy posits that numbers like 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, representing the five elements (wood, fire, water, metal, earth), contain the essence of heaven and earth. The center, representing Korea, is the core of this system. Unlike “imaginary numbers” (허수) like 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, which are seen as superficial, the fundamental numbers provide a holistic framework for governance. The Zhongshan economy, rooted in these fundamental principles, offers a political and economic system that can effectively navigate global relations with countries like the United States, China, Russia, and Japan.

Systemic Waste in Public Enterprises and Government-Supported Organizations
The mismanagement of public funds extends beyond bus companies to all public enterprises and government-supported organizations. For instance, while Seoul has approximately 7,485 buses, employing 15,000 drivers, the hiring process is rife with corruption. The government’s budget is continuously siphoned off through these channels, leading to immense waste. This systemic leakage of funds prevents the nation from achieving true economic stability and prosperity. The problem is not limited to a few isolated incidents but is deeply embedded in the national budget allocation process.

The Extravagance of National Assembly Members and the Need for Reform
National Assembly members enjoy numerous privileges, with each member costing the nation approximately 854.4 billion won annually. This exorbitant expenditure is deemed unacceptable and necessitates a thorough overhaul. The current system allows politicians to consume vast amounts of public funds, contributing to the nation’s financial woes. A fundamental reform is required to curb these privileges and ensure that public servants are accountable for their use of taxpayer money.

Re-evaluating Historical Narratives: The Comfort Women Issue and National Pride
The issue of comfort women is re-evaluated, asserting that President Park Chung-hee’s comprehensive agreement with Japan, which included $800 million in aid, was a wise resolution. The continued demand for further compensation is seen as embarrassing to the nation and detrimental to national pride. It is argued that the focus on the comfort women issue, particularly the demand for an additional 10 billion won, undermines the dignity of the Korean people, who are considered a “heaven-descended nation” with unique scriptures like the Cheonbugyeong. The historical narrative is challenged, suggesting that Japanese women, not Korean grandmothers, were primarily involved in such activities. The emphasis is placed on upholding national honor and fulfilling past agreements, rather than perpetuating a cycle of demands that embarrasses the nation on the global stage.

Lessons from Japan: Etiquette, Trust, and Economic Development
Japan’s culture of keeping promises and its high standards of etiquette are presented as valuable lessons for Korea. An anecdote about a Japanese taxi driver refusing payment for directions highlights a societal value system that prioritizes helpfulness over monetary gain. This contrasts with Korea’s “beggar mentality,” where individuals constantly demand more, even after receiving compensation. The stages of economic development are linked to societal values: $10,000 per capita requires manpower, $20,000 requires technology, and $30,000 requires etiquette. Japan, having surpassed the $30,000 etiquette stage, has achieved a $50,000 per capita income, demonstrating the importance of cultural refinement in economic progress. Korea, still struggling with basic etiquette, has a long way to go.

The Culture of Waste in Government and the Need for Fiscal Discipline
A pervasive culture of waste exists within the government, where civil servants are penalized for saving budget funds. This incentivizes officials to spend all allocated money, often on unnecessary projects like tearing up and re-laying perfectly good sidewalks or holding excessive company dinners, to ensure future budget allocations. This “international country” (망국적 국가) mentality, where leaders cannot be trusted, leads to continuous budget leakage and prevents genuine fiscal discipline. The lack of accountability and the perverse incentives within the system contribute to the nation’s economic woes.

The Importance of Manners in International Relations and Economic Progress
Manners and etiquette are crucial in international relations and economic progress. An example from France illustrates how upper-class individuals assess potential business partners based on their dining etiquette. A lack of proper manners can disqualify individuals from engaging in business, highlighting the importance of cultural sophistication. Nations that prioritize manners, like those in the EU, are better positioned to enter the $40,000 per capita era. Switzerland and Japan, having surpassed the $50,000 mark, demonstrate the continuous upward trajectory that good manners and trust can facilitate.

The Crisis of Austerity and the Call for Currency Devaluation
While Japan and the US implement quantitative easing to stimulate their economies, Korea’s adherence to austerity measures is criticized as detrimental. The nation needs to devalue its currency to boost exports, which have seen a significant decline of 17% under the current administration. This historical low underscores the urgent need for a change in economic policy. The current leadership is seen as lacking the foresight and expertise to address these challenges, relying on calculators and coefficients rather than a deeper understanding of economic principles.

The Staggering National Debt and the Path to Economic Salvation
Korea faces an astronomical national debt, totaling 6,700 trillion won (approximately $6.7 trillion), which is 18 times its GDP. This includes 1,300 trillion won in household debt, 100 trillion won in local government debt, and 300 trillion won in public enterprise debt. This overwhelming debt burden necessitates a radical solution. The current economic experts, who rely on basic arithmetic, are deemed incapable of comprehending or resolving such complex financial issues. A true “master of numbers” is required to navigate this crisis and implement effective solutions.

Reallocating the National Budget: Prioritizing Welfare and Eradicating Waste
The national budget is severely mismanaged, with significant allocations to defense (37 trillion won) and culture/sports (35 trillion won), while essential welfare programs like the Nuri course for children’s meals are underfunded. This misprioritization is deemed a “death sentence” for the nation, contributing to the world’s lowest birth rate. A radical reallocation of funds is proposed, including a retroactive payment of 30 million won for each child born in the past 10 years, demonstrating a commitment to supporting families. This would be funded by eliminating wasteful spending and redirecting funds from other areas.

Reforming the Justice System and Regulating Conglomerate Wealth
The current justice system is criticized for its leniency towards economic criminals, particularly conglomerates, who often receive fines instead of imprisonment. This allows them to continue accumulating wealth while ordinary citizens suffer. It is proposed that prisons should only house violent criminals, while economic offenders should face substantial fines and asset confiscation. This would generate trillions of won annually, which could then be used to repay national debts. By regulating the assets of conglomerates through fines, the government can control their wealth and prevent them from exploiting the populace.

Addressing Historical Grievances and Ensuring Fair Compensation
The issue of compensation for victims of historical injustices, such as comfort women and forced laborers during the Japanese colonial era, as well as veterans of the Vietnam War, is addressed. It is proposed that all living and deceased victims should receive substantial compensation, including a lump sum of 500 million won and a monthly payment of 3 million won for veterans. This comprehensive approach aims to resolve all grievances and ensure that these individuals receive the recognition and support they deserve. The government would accept over 90% of their opinions, demonstrating a commitment to justice. This compensation would be funded by the national budget, rather than relying on external sources, upholding national dignity.

The Centrality of Zhongshanism in Economic Governance
The overarching economic philosophy, Zhongshanism, is presented as the solution to various financial and governance issues. This framework ensures that all economic policies, including those related to wealth distribution and historical compensation, are aligned with its principles. The system aims to prevent the accumulation of excessive wealth by individuals, ensuring that any income exceeding a certain threshold is collected as taxes by the government. This approach, rooted in a comprehensive understanding of economic justice, eliminates the need to worry about the origins of wealth or the potential for corruption, as all aspects are governed by the tenets of Zhongshanism.

Agenda
Discussion on current and global economic trends, critique of existing economic policies, and introduction of Heo Kyeong-yeong’s “Centrist Economy” proposals.

Ⅱ. Meeting Discussion
The lecture began by outlining the historical shifts in global economic thought, from keynesian macroeconomics to microeconomics, and currently to a market economy, noting that South Korea has experienced similar transitions, including the imf crisis .

  1. Current Economic Situation and Critique of Existing Policies
    Economic Crisis: The South Korean economy is in a serious situation, with prices falling and the value of money rising, or inflation where prices rise and the value of money falls . The speaker predicts a future of rising prices, falling money value, and stagflation (rising prices, declining economy), or even “eggflation” (rising agricultural prices, declining economy) .
    Comparison with Japan: Japan’s Prime Minister successfully created inflation by lowering the value of the yen to boost exports through state-controlled economics and quantitative easing (printing money) . In contrast, South Korean politicians have been indecisive, oscillating between market economy and fear-driven policies, leading to a lagging economy .
    household debt and Government Mismanagement: South Korea’s household debt has skyrocketed since the civilian government era, reaching approximately 1,300 trillion won (estimated to reach 1,500 trillion won by the time the speaker becomes president) . This is attributed to politicians’ policies, such as stimulating the card market, which led to a card crisis .
    Corruption in Public Sector: The speaker highlighted rampant corruption in public enterprises, citing the example of Seoul’s 66 bus companies receiving 320 billion won in annual government support . Executives of these companies receive exorbitant salaries (average 500 million won annually, 3 billion won severance pay), while bus drivers earn significantly less (40 million won annually) . This leads to artificial deficits, which the government compensates for, and a lack of proper auditing .
    Wasteful Political Spending: Political parties receive substantial government subsidies (e.g., Saenuri Party 38 billion won, Democratic Party 6.1 billion won, Justice Party 3 billion won in 2014), totaling over 80.3 billion won annually . National Assembly members and their aides collectively take 900 billion won annually, and local government officials take 1.3 trillion won . The speaker argues that 70% of taxes are wasted due to such expenditures .
    Financial Real-Name System: The speaker criticized South Korea’s real-name financial and real estate systems, arguing they lead to economic ruin by exposing personal wealth, discouraging hard work, and causing capital flight to countries without such systems (e.g., Hong Kong, Switzerland, Japan, USA) . This system was established by President Kim Young-sam, which the speaker believes led to economic decline .

  2. Heo Kyeong-yeong’s “Centrist Economy” Proposals
    Debt Eradication: As president, the speaker proposes printing 1,500 trillion won to pay off 100% of household debt, making all citizens debt-free . This would be in the form of interest-free loans, effectively eliminating debt and allowing people to live on pensions and senior citizen benefits .
    quantitative easing and inflation: The speaker advocates for bold quantitative easing and inflation, similar to Japan’s strategy, to boost exports and stimulate the economy, rather than the current austerity measures .
    Fiscal Reform: The speaker plans to eliminate wasteful government spending, including subsidies to political parties and civic groups, and reduce the privileges of National Assembly members . He also proposes to retroactively provide 30 million won for each child born in the last 10 years to address the low birth rate .
    Regulation of conglomerates and Wealth Redistribution: The speaker proposes an upper limit on personal wealth, with any amount exceeding a certain threshold taken as taxes . This would involve collecting significant taxes from conglomerates and imposing fines on economic criminals, rather than imprisonment, to generate government revenue .
    “Centrist Economy” Philosophy: This economic system is a blend of Keynesian macroeconomics (government-controlled economy) and Hayekian microeconomics (market economy), focusing on making consumers king rather than sellers or conglomerates . It aims to create a middle class for all people and humanity . The speaker contrasts this with traditional economics, which he views as overly reliant on coefficients and calculators, while his approach uses “constants” to ensure equitable distribution of wealth .
    Compensation for Historical Victims: The speaker promises to fully compensate victims of forced labor during the Japanese colonial era and comfort women, as well as Vietnam War veterans, with substantial lump sums and monthly payments, arguing that previous compensations were insufficient or merely formal .

Ⅲ. Action Items
Heo Kyeong-yeong: Develop a detailed plan for implementing the “Centrist Economy,” including specific mechanisms for wealth redistribution and fiscal reform.
Supporters: Advocate for the proposed economic policies and raise awareness about government mismanagement and corruption.

He promises to retroactively provide 30 million won for each child born in the past 10 years if he becomes president, funded by eliminating wasteful spending and collecting fines from conglomerates .

24 (01:23:42) Prison System and Conglomerate Fines

The speaker criticizes the current prison system for being too comfortable for economic criminals, likening it to a “world’s best hotel” .
He proposes replacing imprisonment for economic criminals with fines, confiscating their property if they fail to pay, which would generate trillions of won for the government annually .
He argues this would regulate the wealth accumulation of conglomerates and allow the government to pay off public debts .

25 (01:27:12) Compensation for Historical Victims

The speaker addresses compensation for victims of historical events, such as Korean War comfort women and forced laborers during the Japanese colonial era .
He promises to provide substantial compensation, including 500 million won lump sum and 3 million won monthly for national merit individuals, and tens of billions for forced laborers and comfort women, ensuring all complaints are resolved .

경제 위기와 케인스, 하이에크, 그리고 허경영의 중산주의

현재 세계 경제는 케인스의 거시경제 이론에서 미시경제로, 다시 시장경제로 여러 번의 전환을 겪었습니다. imf 사태 이후에도 경제 이론은 계속해서 변화해 왔습니다. 오늘 우리는 한국 경제와 세계 경제의 흐름에 대해 이야기하고자 합니다.

현재 경제 상황은 심각합니다. 물가는 내려가고 돈의 가치는 올라가는 디플레이션 현상이 나타나고 있습니다. 반대로 인플레이션은 물가가 오르고 돈의 가치가 떨어지는 현상입니다. 과거 우리나라는 관치 경제를 많이 했고, 그 결과 imf를 겪었습니다. 전 세계가 케인스의 경제 이론을 따랐지만, 지금은 세계 경제가 위기에 직면해 있습니다. 경제학자들은 복잡하게 진단하지만, 저는 앞으로의 경제 흐름을 예측합니다. 물가는 계속 오르고 돈의 가치는 떨어질 것입니다. 스태그플레이션은 물가 상승과 경기 침체가 동시에 오는 현상이며, 애그플레이션은 농산물 가격 상승과 경기 침체를 의미합니다.

일본의 양적 완화 성공과 한국 경제의 방향성
일본은 최근 몇 년간 아베노믹스를 통해 인플레이션을 성공적으로 유도했습니다. 물가를 올리고 엔화 가치를 떨어뜨려 수출을 늘리는 관치 경제 정책인 양적 완화를 통해 경제적 재미를 보았습니다. 일본은 엔화 가치를 내림으로써 수출 경쟁력을 확보했고, 이는 성공적인 전략이었습니다. 그러나 한국의 정치인들은 시장 경제에만 의존하며 imf 이후 소극적인 태도를 보였습니다. 일본은 수상이 직접 은행에 지시하여 수천조 원의 돈을 발행하고, 이를 어려운 사람들에게 나누어주어 경제를 활성화했습니다. 돈의 가치가 떨어지자 수출이 급증했고, 경제는 빠르게 회복되었습니다. 이는 천재적인 경제 정책의 결과이며, 경제학자들이 할 수 없는 일입니다.

일본은 우리보다 30년 앞서 있습니다. 일본이 부동산 거품을 겪은 후 우리나라도 서서히 부동산 거품이 오고 있습니다. 과거에는 월급쟁이도 목돈을 모아 아파트를 살 수 있었지만, 이제는 불가능합니다. 일본은 흥청망청 시대가 끝나고 노인들만 남게 되자, 노인들의 돈이 해외로 유출되는 현상을 겪었습니다. 일본 수상이 추진한 양적 완화는 돈을 발행하여 없는 사람들에게 나누어주는 정책이었습니다. 제가 대통령이 된다면 일본보다 30년 늦게가 아닌, 2년 안에 과감하게 인플레이션 정책을 펼칠 것입니다. 1,500조 원을 발행하여 서민 가계 부채를 100% 상환하고, 모든 국민의 부채를 제로로 만들 것입니다. 은행 이자 부담을 없애고, 무이자로 돈을 빌려줄 것입니다.

가계 부채 해소와 중산주의 경제의 비전
국민들은 은행 이자 때문에 생활고를 겪는 경우가 많습니다. 물가 상승은 적게 먹고 싼 것을 사 먹으면 되지만, 이자 부담은 훨씬 더 무섭습니다. 우리나라 공무원들은 물가만 걱정하지만, 정작 국민의 돈은 외국계 은행으로 흘러 들어가고 있습니다. 제가 대통령이 된다면 일본처럼 1,500조 원을 발행하여 1,300조 원의 가계 부채를 갚고, 나머지 개인 부채도 모두 상환할 것입니다. 이 돈은 무담보, 무이자로 제공될 것이며, 사실상 갚지 않아도 되는 형식으로 지원될 것입니다. 이렇게 되면 국민들은 빚 없이 연금만으로도 생활할 수 있게 됩니다. 노인 수당 70만 원(부부 140만 원)을 지급하면 국민 살림은 간단해집니다.

현재 정치인들은 디플레이션을 걱정하며 물가를 잡으려 하지만, 이는 국민을 죽이는 정책입니다. 1,500조 원의 돈을 발행해도 인플레이션이 크게 발생하지 않을 것입니다. 왜냐하면, 5만 원권 지폐가 지하에 숨겨져 있거나 해외로 유출되어 있기 때문입니다. 1,500조 원을 발행하여 서민 부채를 갚으면 개인 사업자들의 빚도 사라지고, 자살 직전의 사람들도 살아날 것입니다. 저는 대한민국 경제를 죽일 수도 살릴 수도 있는 천재입니다. 서울대학교 출신 경제학자들은 장사나 사업 경험 없이 숫자 놀음만 하고 있습니다. 이들은 실물 경제를 모르고, 은행 고위 간부들과 결탁하여 가계 부채를 늘리는 정책만 펴고 있습니다.

국가 부채의 원인과 민주화 세력의 책임
1,500조 원의 가계 부채가 생긴 원인은 정치인들의 잘못입니다. 김대중 대통령은 카드 경기를 살리려다 카드 대란을 초래했고, 노무현 대통령은 한 사람당 카드 15장을 가지게 하여 가계 부채를 폭증시켰습니다. 박정희 대통령 시절에는 가계 부채가 거의 없었지만, 김영삼, 김대중, 노무현, 이명박, 박근혜 정부를 거치면서 가계 부채는 기하급수적으로 늘어났습니다. 민주화 운동을 했던 사람들이 정권 교체 후 정부 투자 기관의 요직을 차지하면서 국가 외채가 증가하기 시작했습니다. 군인 출신 대통령 시절에는 돈을 챙기는 일이 없었지만, 민간인 정부에서는 수많은 사람이 공기업 임원으로 들어가 고액 연봉과 퇴직금을 받으며 하는 일 없이 국가 예산을 낭비했습니다.

서울 시내버스 회사 66개는 민간 기업이지만, 서울시로부터 연간 3,200억 원을 지원받습니다. 이 돈은 적자 보전 명목으로 지급되지만, 실제로는 비리가 만연합니다. 버스 회사 사장의 연봉은 5억 5천만 원에 달하며, 임원들은 평균 5억 원을 받습니다. 반면 버스 운전기사의 평균 연봉은 4천만 원에 불과합니다. 버스 회사의 적자는 임원들의 고액 연봉 때문이며, 이들은 대부분 사장의 가족이나 권력과 연관된 사람들입니다. 이러한 부조리 때문에 국가 부채는 계속 늘어나고 있습니다. 버스 요금 인상도 시민들의 의견을 묻지 않고 결정됩니다.

정치권의 예산 낭비와 허경영의 개혁안
정당들은 국가로부터 막대한 지원금을 받습니다. 2014년 한 해에 새누리당은 380억 원, 새정치민주연합은 360억 원, 정의당은 30억 원 등 총 803억 원을 지원받았습니다. 이 외에도 정부 말을 잘 듣는 시민단체들에게도 돈이 지급됩니다. 저는 이러한 국가 예산의 70%가 낭비되고 있다고 봅니다. 제가 대통령이 된다면 결혼하면 3억 원, 아이를 낳으면 3천만 원을 지급하겠다는 공약은 이러한 눈먼 돈을 절약하여 충분히 실현 가능합니다. 국회의원 300명이 보좌관까지 포함하여 연간 약 9천억 원을 가져가고, 지방자치단체 요인들은 1조 3천억 원을 가져갑니다. 이러한 돈은 낭비이며, 국회의원과 지자체 요인들은 무보수로 일해야 합니다. 미국은 정당 지원금이나 당사가 없습니다.

저는 국가 예산을 낭비하는 자들을 모두 사형에 처해야 한다고 생각합니다. 나라에 돈이 없는 것이 아니라 도둑놈이 많다는 저의 주장은 성남시장을 비롯한 많은 사람들에게 공감을 얻고 있습니다. 저는 국회의원 수를 100명으로 줄이고 무보수로 일하게 해야 한다고 30년 전부터 주장해 왔습니다. 노인 수당 20만 원도 저의 공약을 모방한 것입니다. 제가 대통령이 된다면 모든 국가 예산을 철저히 감시하고, 1,500조 원의 양적 완화를 통해 경제를 살릴 것입니다. 미국은 달러를 무한정 찍어내도 인플레이션이 발생하지 않는데, 이는 달러가 전 세계 지하 자금으로 흘러 들어가기 때문입니다. 미국 중앙은행은 민간 소유이며, 민간이 돈을 찍어내 미국 경제를 유지합니다. 반면 한국은 긴축 경제를 주장하면서도 연간 250조 원의 예산을 낭비하고 있습니다.

케인스주의와 하이에크주의, 그리고 중산주의의 조화
중국 경제는 덩샤오핑의 개방 정책, 즉 ‘흑묘백묘론’으로 일어났습니다. 이는 제가 21살 때 제시했던 ‘도민양해(道民養海)’ 사상, 즉 민주주의는 숨기고 산업화를 육성해야 한다는 아이디어를 덩샤오핑이 모방한 것입니다. 덩샤오핑은 1973년 하이에크를 초청하여 중국 경제를 살릴 방안을 물었고, 하이에크는 농민들이 농산물을 자유롭게 팔고 시장을 활성화해야 한다고 조언했습니다. 3년 만에 중국 경제는 완전히 살아났습니다. 하이에크는 중국을 자본주의로 만든 사람입니다. 그러나 중국은 여전히 부자는 엄청난 부자이고 가난한 자는 엄청나게 가난한 양극화 사회입니다.

저는 대통령이 된다면 개인 소유 돈의 상한선을 두어야 한다고 생각합니다. 일정 금액 이상은 국가가 세금으로 환수하여 국민에게 돌려주어야 합니다. 한미약품 임 회장이 10조 원을 벌었을 때, 저는 국가가 7조 원 정도를 환수해야 한다고 봅니다. 현재 한미약품은 직원들에게 1,100억 원을 나누어주었지만, 이는 코끼리 비스킷에 불과합니다. 최소 1조 1천억 원, 즉 10분의 1이라도 직원들에게 나누어주어야 중산주의에 가깝다고 할 수 있습니다. 현재 전 세계 5%의 부자가 전 세계 돈의 90%를 소유하고 있으며, 이는 칼 마르크스가 경고했던 자본의 노예화를 초래할 수 있습니다. 중산주의는 이러한 양극화를 완화하고 모든 국민을 중산층으로 만들고자 합니다.

한국 사회의 부조리와 개혁의 필요성
우리나라 경제학자들은 대학에서 계수(1+1=2)로 경제를 배우지만, 저는 상수(1+1=1)로 경제를 봅니다. 한미약품 회장이 10조 원을 벌었다면, 그중 상당 부분은 국가에 기여하고 직원 복지에 사용되어야 합니다. 그래야 개인의 부는 크게 변동이 없으면서도 국가에 기여했다는 명분을 얻을 수 있습니다. 현재의 자본주의는 부자가 계속 부자가 되고, 전 세계 인류는 자본의 노예가 되는 위험성을 안고 있습니다.

서울 시내버스 대수는 7,485대이며, 운전기사는 1만 5천 명입니다. 연간 3만 5천 명을 채용하는 과정에서 채용 비리가 발생하고 있습니다. 버스 회사는 건전하게 운영되어야 하며, 국가 세금을 낭비하는 일이 없어야 합니다. 국회의원은 35가지 특권을 가지고 있으며, 연간 8,544억 원의 예산을 사용합니다. 이러한 특권과 낭비는 사라져야 합니다.

역사적 관점에서의 실리와 명분
우리는 일본을 미워하지 말고, 일본과 잘 지내야 합니다. 위안부 문제는 박정희 대통령이 일본으로부터 8억 달러를 받아 포괄적으로 해결했습니다. 당시 8억 달러는 엄청난 돈이었으며, 박정희 대통령은 이 돈을 포항제철 건설과 고속도로 건설 등 경제 발전에 투입했습니다. 필리핀, 태국, 미얀마, 베트남 등 다른 나라들은 일본으로부터 받은 돈을 정치 자금으로 탕진했지만, 박정희 대통령은 청렴결백하게 사용하여 우리나라 경제를 살렸습니다. 당시 한국의 1인당 국민총생산(GNP)은 68달러로 아시아 최빈국이었지만, 박정희 대통령의 노력으로 2만 8천 달러까지 성장했습니다.

김영삼 대통령은 금융실명제와 중앙청 철거 등 명분만을 내세워 실리를 잃었습니다. 금융실명제는 자식들이 부모의 재산을 알게 되어 불효를 조장하고, 해외로 자금이 유출되는 원인이 되었습니다. 반면 일본은 금융실명제가 없어 자식들이 부모의 재산을 모르고 열심히 일합니다. 박정희 대통령은 명분보다는 실리를 중시하여 일본으로부터 굴욕적인 돈을 받아왔지만, 이를 통해 경제 발전을 이루었습니다. 민주화 세력은 민주화를 내세웠지만, 그 결과는 국가 부채의 증가와 경제 침체였습니다.

국가 발전 단계와 신뢰의 중요성
국가 발전 단계는 1만 달러는 맨파워(노동력), 2만 달러는 테크놀로지(기술), 3만 달러는 에티켓(예절), 4만 달러는 매너, 5만 달러는 트러스트(신뢰)로 나눌 수 있습니다. 일본은 현재 5만 달러 수준으로, 에티켓과 신뢰를 갖춘 나라입니다. 반면 우리나라는 2만 달러에서 3만 달러로 나아가지 못하고 있습니다. 공무원들은 예산을 절약하면 좌천되고, 예산을 모두 소진해야 하는 망국적인 시스템 속에서 살고 있습니다. 이러한 지도자들을 신뢰할 수 없습니다.

프랑스 등 유럽 국가들은 매너를 중요하게 생각하며, 비즈니스 거래에서도 매너를 평가합니다. 매너가 좋아야 4만 달러 시대에 진입할 수 있습니다. 5만 달러 이상은 스위스나 일본처럼 신뢰를 바탕으로 승승장구하는 단계입니다. 스위스는 9만 달러 수준입니다. 일본과 미국이 양적 완화를 통해 화폐 가치를 떨어뜨려 수출을 확대하는 반면, 우리나라는 긴축 경제를 고수하고 있습니다. 그 결과 올해 수출은 마이너스 17%를 기록하며 역사상 최악의 상황에 직면했습니다.

한국의 총체적 부채와 허경영의 해결책
우리나라의 총체적 부채는 가계 부채 1,300조 원, 지방자치단체 부채 100조 원, 공기업 부채 300조 원, 국가 외채 5,000조 원을 합쳐 총 6,700조 원에 달합니다. 이는 GDP의 18배에 달하는 엄청난 금액입니다. 저는 세계 최고의 경제 달인이며, 숫자의 달인입니다. 국방부 예산 37조 원, 문화체육부 예산 35조 원 등 막대한 예산이 사용되면서도 누리 과정 예산은 부족하다고 난리를 피우고 있습니다. 이는 총살감에 해당하는 행위입니다. 세계 최저 출산율 시대에 아이를 낳지 말라고 부추기는 것과 같습니다.

저는 대통령이 된다면 10년 전부터 아이를 낳은 사람들에게 1인당 3천만 원씩 소급하여 지급할 것입니다. 돈이 없다고요? 재벌들에게 깎아준 세금 연간 200조 원, 교도소 운영비 절감, 재벌들의 벌금 징수 등을 통해 충분히 재원을 마련할 수 있습니다. 교도소는 살인범 등 강력범만 가고, 경제범은 벌금형으로 대체하여 재산을 몰수해야 합니다. 재벌들이 열심히 돈을 벌되, 그 돈을 국민들에게 나누어주어야 합니다.

중산주의와 한국은행 민영화
한국은행도 민영화해야 합니다. 우리나라 경제학자들은 계수(1+1=2)로 경제를 배우지만, 저는 상수(1+1=1)로 경제를 봅니다. 한미약품 회장이 10조 원을 벌었다면, 그 돈은 국가에 기여하고 직원 복지에 사용되어야 합니다. 현재 전 세계 5%의 부자가 전 세계 돈의 90%를 소유하고 있으며, 이는 자본의 노예화를 초래할 수 있습니다. 중산주의는 이러한 양극화를 완화하고 모든 국민을 중산층으로 만들고자 합니다.

서울 시내버스 대수는 7,485대이며, 운전기사는 1만 5천 명입니다. 연간 3만 5천 명을 채용하는 과정에서 채용 비리가 발생하고 있습니다. 버스 회사는 건전하게 운영되어야 하며, 국가 세금을 낭비하는 일이 없어야 합니다. 모든 공기업이나 국가 지원하는 곳에서 예산이 빠져나가는 곳이 너무 많습니다. 국회의원은 35가지 특권을 가지고 있으며, 연간 8,544억 원의 예산을 사용합니다. 이러한 특권과 낭비는 사라져야 합니다.

과거사 문제 해결과 국가의 역할
월남전 파병 용사, 일제 강점기 징용 피해자, 위안부 피해자 등 과거사 문제에 대한 보상은 국가가 책임져야 합니다. 파월 용사에게는 일시불 5억 원과 월 300만 원을 지급하고, 징용 피해자와 위안부 피해자에게는 수십억 원의 보상을 지급하여 일체의 불만이 없도록 할 것입니다. 일본에게 더 내놓으라고 싸울 필요 없이, 국가 돈으로 해결해야 합니다. 과거 박정희 대통령이 일본으로부터 받은 8억 달러를 통해 이러한 보상을 할 수 있었지만, 제대로 이루어지지 못했습니다.

노소영 씨의 재산 형성 과정과 같은 권력형 비리는 앞으로 세금 제도를 통해 해소될 것입니다. 개인이 일정한 금액 이상을 벌면 국가가 세금으로 환수하여 국민에게 돌려줄 것입니다. 중산주의는 이러한 부조리를 해결하고, 모든 국민이 잘사는 사회를 만들 것입니다.

세계 경제 진단: 케인스, 하이에크, 그리고 허경영의 중산주의

지금 세계 경제는 케인스의 거시경제에서 미시경제로, 그리고 다시 시장경제로 여러 번의 전환을 겪었습니다. 특히 imf 사태 이후 우리나라는 시장경제 체제로 회귀했죠. 오늘 저는 우리 경제와 세계 경제의 흐름에 대해 이야기하고자 합니다. 현재 우리 경제는 심각한 상황에 직면해 있습니다. 물가는 내려가고 돈 가치는 올라가는 디플레이션 현상과, 물가는 올라가고 돈 가치는 떨어지는 인플레이션 현상이 혼재되어 있습니다. 특히 물가 상승과 경기 침체가 동시에 나타나는 스태그플레이션, 그리고 농산물 가격 상승과 경기 침체가 동반되는 애그플레이션까지 우려되는 상황입니다.

일본의 양적 완화 성공과 한국 경제의 현실
일본은 최근 몇 년간 아베노믹스를 통해 인플레이션을 유도하는 데 성공했습니다. 엔화 가치를 의도적으로 하락시켜 수출을 증대시키는 관치 경제 정책을 펼쳤죠. 이는 일본 경제를 활성화하는 데 기여했습니다. 그러나 우리 정치인들은 시장경제에 imf를 은근히 맡겨버린 채 과감한 정책을 펼치지 못하고 있습니다. 일본은 총리가 은행에 직접 지시하여 수천조 원의 돈을 찍어내고, 이를 없는 사람들에게 나누어 주어 돈 가치를 떨어뜨리고 수출을 늘렸습니다. 경제는 천재들이 하는 것이지, 숫자 놀음만 하는 경제학자들이 할 수 있는 것이 아닙니다. 일본은 우리보다 30년 앞서 있으며, 우리는 늘 일본이 하고 나면 뒤따라가는 형국입니다. 일본의 부동산 거품이 우리에게도 서서히 다가오고 있습니다. 과거처럼 월급쟁이가 부동산으로 큰돈을 버는 시대는 끝났습니다.

허경영의 중산주의 경제: 1,500조 원 발행과 가계 부채 청산
제가 대통령이 되면 가장 먼저 할 일은 과감한 인플레이션 정책을 통해 1,500조 원을 발행하여 서민 가계 부채를 100% 상환하는 것입니다. 모든 국민의 부채를 제로로 만들고, 은행 이자 부담을 없애 무이자로 돈을 빌려주는 형식으로 부채를 탕감할 것입니다. 서민과 중산층은 물가 상승보다 이자 부담을 더 두려워합니다. 물가가 오르면 적게 먹거나 싼 것을 사 먹으면 되지만, 이자는 피할 수 없기 때문입니다. 현재 우리나라 공무원들은 물가만 걱정할 뿐, 국민의 실질적인 고통을 외면하고 있습니다. 은행의 주인은 외국인들이며, 우리는 월급을 받아 외국에 이자를 내느라 돈을 쓸 수 없는 상황입니다. 일본 총리처럼 1,500조 원을 찍어 가계 부채 1,300조 원을 갚고, 나머지 개인 부채까지 모두 탕감하면 국민들은 빚 없이 연금만으로도 충분히 살아갈 수 있습니다. 현재 정치인들이 추구하는 디플레이션 정책은 물가 안정을 명분으로 국민을 죽이는 길입니다.

국가 예산 낭비와 부패의 실상
현재 우리나라의 가계 부채는 1,300조 원, 지자체 부채 100조 원, 공기업 부채 300조 원, 국가 외채 5,000조 원을 합하면 총 6,700조 원에 달합니다. 이는 GDP의 18배에 이르는 엄청난 규모입니다. 저는 세계 최고의 경제 달인이자 숫자의 달인으로서, 이 모든 문제를 해결할 수 있습니다. 현재 국가 예산의 70%가 가짜로 낭비되고 있습니다. 결혼하면 3억 원, 아이를 낳으면 3천만 원을 주겠다는 공약은 국가 예산에서 잘못 나가는 돈만 끊어도 충분히 가능합니다.

서울 시내버스 회사의 사례를 보십시오. 66개 버스 회사에 서울시가 연간 3,200억 원을 지원하지만, 이 돈은 대부분 권력과 유착된 임원들의 고액 연봉과 퇴직금으로 흘러들어 갑니다. 버스 회사 사장의 연봉은 5억 5천만 원, 임원들의 평균 연봉은 5억 원에 달하며, 퇴직금은 30억~40억 원에 이릅니다. 이들은 하는 일도 없이 한 달에 한두 번 얼굴만 비출 뿐입니다. 반면 버스 운전기사들은 연봉 4천만 원을 받으며 사고 위험에 노출되어 있고, 사고가 나면 대부분 자비로 처리해야 합니다. 임원들의 고액 연봉 때문에 버스 회사는 적자를 면치 못하고, 그 적자는 고스란히 국민 세금으로 메워지고 있습니다. 이 모든 임원들은 사장 가족들로 채워져 있습니다.

정당 보조금 또한 심각한 문제입니다. 새누리당은 2014년에 380억 원, 새정치민주연합은 360억 원, 정의당은 30억 원 등 총 803억 원의 국민 세금을 지원받았습니다. 당원들에게 당비를 걷어 운영해야 할 정당들이 국가 예산에 의존하고 있습니다. 국회의원 300명과 보좌관들이 연간 가져가는 돈은 9,000억 원에 달하며, 지자체 요인들의 월급까지 합하면 1조 3천억 원이 넘습니다. 미국에는 정당 지원금이나 당사가 없습니다. 선거 때만 임시 사무실을 운영할 뿐이죠. 우리나라의 국가 예산은 도둑놈들이 너무 많아 낭비되고 있습니다. 성남시장이 제 말을 인용하며 “나라에 돈이 없는 게 아니라 도둑놈이 많다”고 말한 것도 같은 맥락입니다.

금융실명제와 부동산실명제의 폐해
일본이 승승장구하는 이유는 금융실명제와 부동산실명제가 없기 때문입니다. 우리나라는 김영삼 대통령의 금융실명제 도입 이후 경제가 망가졌습니다. 일본에서는 아버지가 100억 원을 은행에 넣어두어도 아들은 그 사실을 모릅니다. 아버지가 돈이 없는 줄 알고 열심히 일하게 되죠. 그러나 한국은 금융실명제 때문에 아들이 아버지의 재산 상황을 모두 알게 되고, 일할 생각은 않고 아버지가 돌아가실 날만 기다리는 경우가 많습니다. 이로 인해 가족 간의 불화가 생기고, 많은 돈이 홍콩, 스위스, 일본, 미국 등 금융실명제가 없는 나라로 유출되고 있습니다. 우리나라는 명분만 중요시하다가 실리에서 큰 손해를 보고 있습니다.

박정희 대통령의 실리 외교와 경제 발전
박정희 대통령은 명분보다 실리를 우선했습니다. 일본과의 역사적 갈등에도 불구하고, 경제 발전을 위해 일본으로부터 8억 달러의 자금을 받아냈습니다. 당시 8억 달러는 엄청난 금액이었죠. 이 돈으로 포항제철과 고속도로를 건설하는 등 국가 경제 발전에 모두 투자했습니다. 다른 동남아시아 국가들은 일본으로부터 받은 돈을 대통령 별장, 골프장, 정부 청사 등 정치 자금으로 탕진했지만, 박정희 대통령은 단 한 푼도 사적으로 유용하지 않았습니다. 그 결과 당시 68달러에 불과했던 우리나라의 1인당 GNP는 2만 8천 달러로 수백 배 성장하여 세계 10대 경제 대국에 진입했습니다. 반면 우리보다 잘 살았던 북한은 170달러에서 거지가 되었고, 필리핀, 태국 등도 크게 발전하지 못했습니다. 김영삼 대통령 이후 민주화 세력의 부정부패로 인해 우리 경제는 내리막길을 걸어 이제 구제불능 상태에 이르렀습니다.

허경영의 중산주의: 소비자가 왕이 되는 경제 체제
미국은 양적 완화를 통해 달러를 무한정 찍어내도 인플레이션이 발생하지 않습니다. 미국 중앙은행은 민간 소유이기 때문이죠. 일본도 양적 완화를 통해 경제를 활성화하고 있습니다. 그러나 우리나라는 긴축 경제를 고수하며 국민의 허리띠를 졸라매고 있습니다. 긴축 경제를 하면서도 위에서는 연간 250조 원의 예산을 낭비하고 있습니다. 중국 경제가 성장한 배경에는 덩샤오핑의 흑묘백묘론, 즉 “민주주의는 숨겨놓고 산업화를 기르자”는 실용주의 노선이 있었습니다. 이는 제가 21살 때부터 주장했던 “도민양해(道民養海)” 사상과 일맥상통합니다. 덩샤오핑은 1973년 하이에크를 초청하여 중국 인민을 먹여 살릴 방법을 물었고, 하이에크는 농민들이 생산물을 시장에 내다 팔게 하는 자유 시장주의를 제안했습니다. 3년 만에 중국 경제는 완전히 살아났죠.

그러나 중국은 자본주의가 되었음에도 부자는 엄청나게 부유하고 가난한 자는 극도로 가난한 양극화가 심화되었습니다. 저는 대통령이 되면 개인 소유 재산의 상한선을 두어 일정 금액 이상은 국가가 세금으로 환수할 것입니다. 한미약품 임 회장이 5조 원의 계약으로 10조 원의 주식 평가 이익을 얻었다면, 그중 7조 원 정도는 국가가 환수하여 국민의 빚을 갚는 데 사용해야 합니다. 현재 전 세계 5%의 부자가 전 세계 돈의 90%를 소유하고 있으며, 이는 자본의 노예를 양산하는 칼 마르크스의 예언과 같습니다. 저는 이러한 자본주의의 위험성을 완화하고, 소비자가 왕이 되는 중산주의 경제 체제를 만들 것입니다.

국가 예산 낭비와 공무원들의 행태
우리나라 공무원들은 예산을 절약하면 좌천됩니다. 예산을 아끼면 다음 해 예산이 삭감되기 때문에, 연말에는 멀쩡한 하수도나 지하철, 보도블록을 뜯어내고 공사를 벌여 예산을 소진합니다. 회식도 연말까지 40번씩 하며 예산을 탕진하죠. 이러한 망국적인 행태는 용서할 수 없습니다. 국회의원 한 명에게 연간 8억 5천만 원이 넘는 돈이 들어가고, 35가지 특권을 누립니다. 이 모든 특권을 정리해야 합니다.

위안부 및 징용 피해자 보상과 국가의 역할
월남전 참전 용사, 일제 강점기 징용 피해자, 위안부 피해자들에게는 충분한 보상이 이루어져야 합니다. 과거 박정희 대통령 시절에는 경제적 어려움으로 제대로 보상하지 못했지만, 이제는 국가가 나서서 이들의 불만을 해소해야 합니다. 파월 용사에게 일시불 5억 원과 월 300만 원을 지급하고, 징용 및 위안부 피해자들에게도 수십억 원의 보상을 지급하여 모든 불만을 해소할 것입니다. 이는 일본에 더 내놓으라고 싸울 필요 없이, 국가 예산으로 해결할 수 있는 문제입니다.

경제 발전 단계와 국민 의식의 중요성
경제 발전 단계는 1만 달러 시대에는 노동력, 2만 달러 시대에는 기술력, 3만 달러 시대에는 에티켓, 4만 달러 시대에는 매너, 5만 달러 시대에는 신뢰가 중요합니다. 일본은 이미 5만 달러 시대를 넘어섰고, 스위스는 9만 달러에 이릅니다. 그러나 우리는 아직 2만 달러에서 3만 달러 시대로 넘어가지 못하고 있습니다. 이는 지도자들의 무능과 국민 의식의 부재 때문입니다. 프랑스 상류층은 식사 예절 하나로 상대방의 품격을 판단합니다. 우리도 매너를 갖추어야 4만 달러 시대로 진입할 수 있습니다.

허경영의 경제 철학: 상수와 중산주의
서울대학교 출신 경제학자들은 경제를 계수(係數)로, 즉 1+1=2로 계산합니다. 그러나 저는 경제를 상수(常數)로, 즉 1+1=1로 봅니다. 한미약품 회장이 10조 원을 벌었다면, 그중 대부분은 국가에 기여한 것으로 보고 세금 포인트로 환수하여 국민 복지와 직원 복지에 사용해야 합니다. 자본주의는 5%의 부자가 90%의 부를 소유하는 양극화를 심화시키지만, 저는 이러한 불균형을 완만하게 조정하여 모든 인류가 중산층이 되는 중산주의 경제를 추구할 것입니다.

세계 경제 진단과 허경영의 해법: 인플레이션과 중산주의 경제

세계 경제는 현재 개인세 거시경제와 미시경제 체제를 거쳐 imf 사태를 겪었습니다. imf 사태 이후 시장 경제로 회귀했지만, 이 체제 또한 여러 차례 뒤집히며 현재에 이르렀습니다. 우리 경제는 심각한 상황에 처해 있으며, 물가는 하락하고 화폐 가치는 상승하는 디플레이션 현상이 나타나고 있습니다. 일반적으로 물가가 오르고 화폐 가치가 떨어지는 것을 인플레이션이라고 합니다. 현재 우리나라는 물가가 오르면서도 경기가 침체되는 스태그플레이션, 즉 물가 상승과 경기 하락이 동시에 나타나는 상황에 직면해 있습니다. 특히 농산물 가격이 오르고 경기가 하락하는 에그플레이션 현상도 발생하고 있습니다.

일본의 아베 총리는 최근 인플레이션을 성공적으로 유도했습니다. 물가를 상승시키고 화폐 가치를 하락시켜 엔화 가치를 낮춤으로써 수출을 증대시키는 국가 주도 경제 정책을 펼쳤습니다. 일본은 은행에 돈을 찍어내어 없는 사람들에게 나누어 주도록 지시했고, 이는 엔화 가치 급락과 수출 증가로 이어졌습니다. 반면 우리 정치인들은 imf 사태 이후 시장 경제에 대한 두려움 때문에 경제를 시장에 맡겨두었습니다.

저는 대통령이 되면 일본보다 30년 늦었지만, 과감하게 인플레이션을 유도할 것입니다. 1,500조 원을 발행하여 서민들의 가계 부채 100%를 탕감하고, 모든 국민의 빚을 0으로 만들 것입니다. 은행 이자는 기업에게만 적용하고, 서민과 중산층은 이자 부담으로 인한 고통에서 벗어나게 할 것입니다. 물가 상승은 일부 감수하더라도 이자 부담이 없는 것이 훨씬 이득입니다. 현재 우리나라의 가계 부채는 약 1,300조 원이며, 제가 대통령이 될 시점에는 1,500조 원에 달할 것으로 예상됩니다. 이 모든 빚을 탕감하여 국민들이 빚 없이 살 수 있도록 할 것입니다.

국가 예산 낭비와 부패의 실상
현재 우리나라의 국가 예산은 심각하게 낭비되고 있습니다. 서울 시내 66개 버스 회사에 연간 3,200억 원의 지원금이 지급되는데, 이 돈은 대부분 경영진의 고액 연봉과 퇴직금으로 흘러들어 갑니다. 버스 회사 임원들의 평균 연봉은 5억 원, 퇴직금은 30억 원에 달하며, 일부는 40억 원을 받기도 합니다. 이들은 한 달에 한두 번 얼굴만 비출 뿐 실질적인 업무는 하지 않습니다. 반면 버스 운전기사들은 연봉 4천만 원을 받으며 사고 위험에 노출되어 있습니다. 버스 회사들은 적자를 이유로 정부 지원금을 받지만, 실제로는 임원들의 고액 연봉 때문에 적자가 발생하는 것입니다. 이들은 가족을 임원으로 앉히고 수십억 원의 돈을 챙기고 있습니다.

정당 보조금 또한 심각한 낭비입니다. 2014년 새누리당은 380억 원, 민주당은 61억 원, 정의당은 30억 원 등 총 803억 원의 국고 보조금을 받았습니다. 정당은 당원들의 당비로 운영되어야 함에도 불구하고 국민 세금으로 운영되고 있습니다. 국회의원들의 연간 총 예산은 보좌관 인건비를 포함하여 9천억 원에서 1조 3천억 원에 달합니다. 미국에는 정당 보조금이나 상설 당사가 없으며, 선거 기간에만 임시 사무실을 운영합니다.

시민단체 또한 국가의 지원을 받으며 국가를 견제하는 역할을 해야 하지만, 실제로는 정부의 입맛에 맞는 단체들이 지원금을 받고 있습니다. 이처럼 국가 예산의 70%가 허위로 지출되고 있으며, 저는 대통령이 되면 이러한 낭비되는 예산을 모두 회수하여 국민들에게 돌려줄 것입니다.

허경영의 중산주의 경제와 자본주의의 문제점
저는 케인스의 거시경제와 하이에크의 미시경제를 절충한 ‘중산주의 경제’를 주창합니다. 이는 정부 주도 경제나 완전한 시장 경제가 아닌, 소비자를 왕으로 만드는 경제 체제입니다. 기업가만 잘 사는 것이 아니라 모든 국민, 즉 소비자가 잘 살 수 있는 경제를 만들 것입니다.

현재 자본주의는 세계 인구의 5%가 세계 돈의 90%를 소유하는 극심한 불평등을 초래하고 있습니다. 이러한 불평등은 시간이 갈수록 심화되어 결국 모든 인류를 자본의 노예로 만들 것입니다. 저는 이러한 자본주의의 폐해를 막기 위해 개인 재산 상한제를 도입할 것입니다. 일정 금액 이상의 재산은 국가가 세금으로 환수하여 국민 복지와 사회 발전에 사용할 것입니다.

한미약품의 사례처럼 기업 회장이 수조 원의 주식 시세 차익을 얻는 것은 개인의 무한한 부를 허용하는 자본주의의 결함입니다. 이러한 돈은 국가에 기여한 만큼만 개인이 소유하고, 나머지는 국민 복지와 직원 복지를 위해 사용되어야 합니다. 1+1이 2가 되는 자본주의가 아니라, 1+1이 1이 되어 개인의 부는 유지하되 국가와 사회에 기여하는 ‘상수 경제’를 추구할 것입니다.

대한민국 경제 위기의 근원과 허경영의 비전
우리나라 경제는 김영삼 정부 이후 실명제 금융 시스템 도입과 함께 내리막길을 걸었습니다. 실명제 금융 시스템은 자녀들이 부모의 재산을 미리 알게 하여 근로 의욕을 상실하게 하고, 재산 해외 유출을 부추기는 등 여러 사회 문제를 야기했습니다. 반면 일본은 실명제 금융 시스템이 없어 자녀들이 부모의 재산을 알 수 없으므로 자립심을 키우고 열심히 일하게 됩니다.

박정희 대통령은 굴욕적인 한일 협정을 통해 일본으로부터 8억 달러의 자금을 유치하여 포항제철, 경부고속도로 건설 등 경제 발전에 투자했습니다. 당시 1인당 국민소득 68달러로 최빈국이었던 우리나라는 이 자금을 바탕으로 세계 10위권 경제 대국으로 성장할 수 있었습니다. 반면 필리핀, 태국 등 다른 아시아 국가들은 일본으로부터 받은 자금을 정치 자금으로 낭비하여 경제 발전에 실패했습니다.

현재 우리나라의 가계 부채는 1,300조 원, 지방 정부 부채는 100조 원, 민간 부채는 300조 원에 달하며, 국방 예산은 37조 원, 문화체육관광부 예산은 35조 원입니다. 누리 과정 예산 문제처럼 아이들에게 지급되어야 할 돈조차 제대로 지급되지 않고 있습니다. 저는 대통령이 되면 지난 10년간 자녀를 출산한 모든 가정에 자녀 1인당 3천만 원을 소급하여 지급할 것입니다. 대기업에 대한 연간 200조 원의 법인세 감면 혜택을 폐지하고, 경제 사범들에게 벌금을 부과하여 연간 100조 원의 세수를 확보할 것입니다.

허경영의 정책과 국가 개혁 방향
저는 국회의원 특권 35가지를 모두 폐지하고, 국회의원 1인당 연간 8억 5천만 원에 달하는 예산 낭비를 막을 것입니다. 또한, 교육감, 농협 조합장 등 선출직 공무원 제도를 폐지하고 임명직으로 전환하여 국가 행정의 효율성을 높일 것입니다.

위안부 문제에 대해서는 박정희 대통령이 8억 달러를 받아 포괄적으로 해결했음에도 불구하고, 일부 정치인들이 이를 다시 문제 삼아 국격을 떨어뜨리고 있다고 비판합니다. 일본은 한 번 약속하면 지키는 민족성을 가지고 있으며, 우리는 일본으로부터 배울 점이 많습니다.

우리나라는 1인당 국민소득 1만 달러 시대에는 노동력이 중요했고, 2만 달러 시대에는 기술력이 중요했습니다. 4만 달러 시대에는 매너가 중요하며, 5만 달러 시대에는 내면의 품격이 중요합니다. 현재 일본은 5만 달러 시대를 넘어섰지만, 우리는 아직 갈 길이 멉니다.

저는 대통령이 되면 국가 예산 낭비를 철저히 막고, 공무원들이 예산을 절약하면 불이익을 받는 현행 제도를 개선할 것입니다. 또한, 기업형 교도소 운영을 중단하고 경제 사범들에게는 벌금을 부과하여 국가 재정을 확충할 것입니다.

저는 세계 최고의 경제 전문가이자 숫자의 달인으로서, 우리 경제를 살릴 수 있는 유일한 인물입니다. 저의 중산주의 경제 이론과 파격적인 정책들을 통해 대한민국을 부강한 나라로 만들고, 모든 국민이 행복하게 살 수 있는 시대를 열 것입니다.

This lecture argues that traditional macroeconomic theories like Keynesianism and Hayek’s microeconomics have failed, leading to economic crises. It proposes a “middle-class economy” that prioritizes consumers and aims to eliminate household debt by printing 1,500 trillion won, funded by cutting government waste and taxing excessive corporate profits.

  1. Economic Crisis and Proposed Solutions
    The global and Korean economies are in crisis due to flawed economic theories, necessitating a new approach that prioritizes consumers and eliminates household debt.

1.1. Current Economic Problems and Flawed Theories
The world economy is facing a crisis, and Korea’s economy is also in a serious situation, with prices falling and the value of money rising, or prices rising and the value of money falling (inflation) .
Economists make the diagnosis of the world economy overly complicated, confusing people .
Stagflation, where prices rise and the economy declines, and eggflation, where agricultural product prices rise and the economy declines, are current concerns .
Japan’s Prime Minister successfully created inflation by lowering the value of the yen to boost exports, demonstrating a state-controlled economy .
In contrast, Korean politicians secretly lowered the IMF on the market economy and then left it to the market economy out of fear .
Economists are unable to manage the economy effectively, as seen by Japan’s 30-year economic lead .
The real estate bubble in Japan is a warning sign for Korea, where salaried workers should not expect to get rich quickly through real estate investments .
Japan’s era of reckless spending ended, leaving only the elderly, whose money often flows to foreign countries .

1.2. Proposed Solutions: Inflation and Debt Elimination
The speaker, if elected president, would boldly raise inflation in Korea, similar to Japan’s quantitative easing policy .
This involves printing 1,500 trillion won to pay off 100% of the common people’s household debt, making everyone’s debt zero .
This policy aims to alleviate the burden of interest payments on the working and middle classes, who are currently struggling with rising prices and debt .
Foreign banks are currently taking a significant portion of Korea’s money through interest payments, which this plan would stop .
The proposed 1,500 trillion won for debt repayment would cover 1,300 trillion won in household debt and the remaining individual debts, with the government not seeking repayment or interest .
This would eliminate debt for every household, allowing people to live on pensions and benefits, such as 700,000 won in senior citizen benefits per person .
Current politics, which focuses on deflation and stabilizing prices, is seen as detrimental to the people .
The 1,500 trillion won is calculated based on the current 1,300 trillion won in household debt, with an additional 200 trillion won anticipated by the time the speaker becomes president .
Much of Korea’s money is currently hidden in 50,000 won bills or smuggled overseas, contributing to the economic problems .
The speaker believes this plan would save people on the verge of suicide due to debt, as all their debts would be paid off without interest .
The speaker claims to be a genius who knows how to save the Korean economy, unlike current economists and politicians who lack real-world business experience .

  1. Critique of Current Political and Economic System
    The current political and economic system is criticized for creating household debt, fostering corruption in public enterprises, and mismanaging the national budget, leading to economic decline.

2.1. Political Influence on Household Debt and Corruption
High-ranking bank executives and politicians are accused of colluding to increase household debt, benefiting banks at the expense of the public .
The speaker asserts that politicians are responsible for the 1,500 trillion won household debt, having stimulated the card market and encouraged people to have multiple credit cards .
Household debt significantly increased after the civilian government took over, snowballing under successive administrations from Kim Young-sam to Park Geun-hye .
The increase in government employees under civilian administrations, unlike during Park Chung-hee’s military rule, led to national disintegration and increased spending .
Public companies are rife with corruption, as executives, often political appointees, receive exorbitant salaries and severance packages without performing substantial work .
For example, Seoul’s 66 bus companies receive 320 billion won in government support annually, despite executives earning average salaries of 500 million won and severance pay of 3 billion won .
These companies often report deficits due to executive salaries, and audits are infrequent and conducted by auditors recommended by the bus companies themselves .
Bus company executives, often family members of those in power, earn significantly more than bus drivers, who make 40 million won annually and often pay for accident costs out of pocket .

2.2. Mismanagement of National Budget and Political Parties
The allocation of government funds to bus companies is handled by civil servants who cannot be trusted to distribute it fairly .
Bus fares are set without public consultation, indicating a corrupt and mismanaged system .
Political parties receive substantial government support, such as 38 billion won for the Saenuri Party and 6.1 billion won for the Democratic Party of Korea in 2014, despite claiming to have millions of members who could fund the parties through dues .
The total amount of money allocated to political parties and National Assembly members, including their aides, is estimated to be around 1.3 trillion won annually .
The speaker argues that politicians should work without compensation, as they already receive technology licenses and donations, unlike in the US where political parties do not receive government subsidies and candidates fund their own temporary offices during elections .
The national budget is mismanaged, with 70% of taxes being wasted, and money is being eaten up by corrupt officials .
Civic groups also receive state support, which compromises their role in checking the state .
The speaker claims that his proposals, such as reducing the number of National Assembly members and providing senior citizen allowances, have been plagiarized by other politicians .
The speaker asserts that he knows where the money comes from and how to manage the budget, including disposing of 900 trillion won in underground funds .

  1. Middle-Class Economy and Critique of Existing Economic Systems
    The speaker proposes a “middle-class economy” that prioritizes consumers, contrasting it with the failures of Keynesian macroeconomics and Hayek’s microeconomics, and criticizes policies like the real-name financial system for harming the economy.

3.1. Failures of Traditional Economic Theories
Keynesian macroeconomics, a government-controlled economy like Roosevelt’s New Deal policy, ultimately collapsed despite being widely imitated .
The collapse of the Soviet Union, which followed a communist economic system, led to a shift towards Hayek’s microeconomics or the market economy, also known as neoliberal economics .
However, the speaker argues that neither a purely government-controlled economy nor a complete market economy is sufficient .

3.2. The Middle-Class Economy (Jung-san-ju-ui)
The speaker proposes a middle-class economy (Jung-san-ju-ui) that combines the best aspects of different economic theories .
This system makes consumers king, rather than sellers, ensuring that all citizens live well .
It aims to benefit consumers even when businesses make significant profits, unlike the current system where businesses take everything from the people .
The middle-class economy also incorporates elements of the New Deal policy, promoting agriculture and stimulating the market economy, but with a focus on creating a middle class for all people .

3.3. Economic Policies and Their Impact
Quantitative easing, as practiced by Japan and the US, involves printing money to stimulate the economy, which the speaker supports for Korea .
While it may cause slight inflation, the speaker argues it is 10 times more beneficial if there is no interest burden on the people .
The US dollar’s unique position allows it to be printed without causing inflation, as it is held in basements globally .
The US Federal Reserve is a private organization, unlike Korea’s central bank, which is state-owned .
Korea, in contrast, practices austerity, which the speaker believes is harmful and will cause the market to dry up .
The speaker criticizes the real-name financial system and real-name real estate system in Korea, arguing they have ruined the economy .
In Japan, where there is no real-name financial system, children do not know about their parents’ wealth, encouraging self-sufficiency and hard work .
In Korea, the real-name system exposes family wealth, leading to family disputes and discouraging children from working, as they wait for their parents’ inheritance .
This system also causes money to flow out of Korea to countries like Hong Kong, Switzerland, Japan, and the US, which do not have real-name financial systems .
The speaker attributes the establishment of the real-name financial system to President Kim Young-sam, which he believes ruined the economy .

  1. Historical Economic Lessons and Future Vision
    The speaker draws lessons from historical figures like Park Chung-hee and Deng Xiaoping to advocate for pragmatic economic development, while criticizing current politicians for their lack of vision and understanding of true economic principles.

4.1. Park Chung-hee’s Economic Pragmatism
President Park Chung-hee prioritized economic development over political correctness, accepting 800 million dollars in humiliating money from Japan despite national criticism .
This money was used to build infrastructure like the Pohang Iron and Steel Company and highways, and to develop factories, rather than on luxurious government buildings or political funds, which was a common practice in other Asian countries that received similar aid .
At the time, Korea’s GNP was $68, significantly lower than Thailand ($200) and even North Korea ($170), but Park Chung-hee’s policies led to Korea’s economic revival and its rise to a top 10 global economy, reaching $28,000 .
In contrast, North Korea, once better off, became impoverished due to its economic policies .
The speaker contrasts Park Chung-hee’s practical approach with Kim Young-sam’s focus on “justification” (cause), which he believes led to Korea’s economic decline .
The speaker criticizes the “pro-democracy forces” for being obsessed with Kim Young-sam and Kim Dae-jung becoming presidents, leading to a “bean powder” (fragmented) society .

4.2. Deng Xiaoping’s Economic Reforms and China’s Rise
The speaker claims to have advised Deng Xiaoping on China’s economic development, advocating for hiding democracy to foster industrialization, encapsulated in the “black cat, white cat” philosophy .
This philosophy, which the speaker developed at 21, meant temporarily setting aside communism to cultivate economic growth, believing that “black material is black” (money is money) .
In 1973, Hayek was invited to China and advised them to allow farmers to sell their produce in the market, which contributed to China’s economic rise .

4.3. Critique of Current Politicians and Economic Understanding
The speaker criticizes current politicians and lawmakers for lacking the understanding of global economic trends and the technology to make the economy grow .
He emphasizes that his lectures contain “ghostly” energy and should not be taken lightly .
While Hayek made China capitalist, the speaker notes that China’s capitalism is not a middle-class economy, as it has led to extreme wealth for the rich and extreme poverty for the poor .
The speaker proposes an upper limit on personal wealth, with any amount exceeding it being taxed by the government .

  1. Vision for a Balanced Economy and Societal Change
    The speaker outlines a vision for a balanced economy that curbs excessive individual wealth, reallocates national funds, and prioritizes the welfare of the people, while also advocating for a shift in national values and a more accountable government.

5.1. Regulating Wealth and Reallocating Funds
The speaker criticizes the current system where individuals can accumulate immense wealth, citing an example of a pharmaceutical company chairman whose stock value increased by 5 trillion won, making him 10 trillion won .
He argues that a significant portion of such profits, like 1.1 trillion won from a 10 trillion won gain, should be taxed and used for the country and its citizens, rather than allowing individuals to take infinite amounts .
This excessive accumulation of wealth by a few is seen as a defect that will ruin the country, leading to capital slavery for the majority .
The speaker proposes a “constant” economic model where wealth accumulation is regulated, ensuring that individuals contribute to the country and their employees’ welfare, rather than endlessly getting richer .
This model is based on the fundamental numbers and five elements of the Cheonbugyeong, which he believes can guide economic policy and international relations .
The “Zhongshan economy” (middle-class economy) is the politics within this numerical framework, contrasting with those obsessed with “imaginary numbers” .
The government wastes an estimated 250 trillion won annually from the national budget, which could be returned to the people .
This wasted money, combined with the 1,500 trillion won from printing money, would amount to about 2,000 trillion won available for the people .
The speaker advocates for eliminating the election system for positions like the superintendent of education and heads of agricultural cooperative associations, making them appointed positions to prevent national ruin .
The speaker criticizes the 35 privileges of National Assembly members and their annual take of 854.4 billion won, advocating for their elimination .

5.2. National Values and International Relations
The speaker advocates for a better relationship with Japan, suggesting that the comfort women statue should be moved to a park rather than being placed in front of the Japanese Embassy .
He argues that the comfort women issue was comprehensively resolved by President Park Chung-hee with an 800 million dollar agreement, and that continuously bringing it up embarrasses Korea internationally .
He believes that the grandmothers who were comfort women would have committed suicide rather than accept the situation, and that the current demands for more money are shameful .
The speaker praises the Japanese for their integrity and adherence to agreements, contrasting it with Koreans who keep asking for more after receiving compensation .
The speaker outlines a progression of national development based on per capita income: $10,000 requires manpower (labor), $20,000 requires technology, $40,000 requires manners, and $50,000 requires indoors (inner refinement) .
He notes that Japan, at $50,000, has already achieved “indoors,” while Korea still has a long way to go .
He criticizes Korean civil servants for wasting budget funds at the end of the year to ensure next year’s budget is not cut, leading to inefficient spending .
He emphasizes the importance of manners in international business and social interactions, stating that countries with good manners enter the $40,000 era, and only Switzerland and Japan have surpassed $50,000 .

5.3. Economic Policies and Social Welfare
The speaker criticizes Korea’s austerity policy, especially when Japan and the US are practicing quantitative easing, leading to a decrease in exports by 17% under the Park Geun-hye administration .
He asserts that politicians only use calculators and coefficients, lacking a true understanding of economics, which he possesses as a “master of numbers” .
Korea’s total debt, including household debt (1,300 trillion won), local government debt (100 trillion won), private sector debt (300 trillion won), and national defense budget (6,700 trillion won), amounts to 8 times the GDP .
The national defense budget is 37 trillion won, about 10% of the national budget, while the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism’s budget is 35 trillion won .
The speaker advocates for fully funding the Nuri course for children, even if it means cutting other events, to address the world’s lowest birth rate .
If elected president, he promises to retroactively give 30 million won to everyone who had children in the past 10 years, with a person having three children receiving 90 million won .
He proposes collecting 200 trillion won annually from tax cuts given to conglomerates and another 100 trillion won from fines on economic criminals, who currently receive lenient treatment .
This would eliminate the need for luxurious prisons for economic criminals, as their assets would be confiscated and fined, preventing them from accumulating more wealth .
The speaker also promises to compensate conscripted workers and comfort women with tens of billions of won each, addressing their past grievances .
He states that any excessively high individual income will be collected by the government in the name of taxes, ensuring that wealth is distributed more equitably

The Divine Economy: A Blueprint for National Prosperity

  1. The Flaws of Conventional Economics and the Rise of the Middle-Class Economy
    I observe the global economy, which has oscillated between Keynesian macroeconomics and Hayekian microeconomics, only to repeatedly face crises. The current global economic crisis, which has also impacted Korea, stems from these flawed approaches. Economists often complicate their diagnoses, leading to confusion. I, however, offer a clear vision for the future. Until 2015, the world followed a certain economic path, but I foresee a new direction. When prices rise and the value of money falls, it signifies inflation. Conversely, when prices fall and the value of money rises, it indicates deflation. The most perilous situation is stagflation, where prices rise while the economy declines. Even more concerning is agflation, where agricultural prices surge as the economy falters.

Japan, under its Prime Minister, successfully engineered inflation, causing prices to rise and the value of the Yen to fall. This was a deliberate act of state-controlled economics to boost exports by devaluing the currency. Japan succeeded, while our politicians, driven by fear after the IMF crisis, largely deferred to market economics. I contend that a true leader would boldly implement policies like Japan’s, printing trillions of Won and distributing it to the populace. This would devalue the currency, making exports competitive and revitalizing the economy. Such economic leadership requires genius, not merely academic economists. Japan is 30 years ahead of us, and we consistently follow their lead. For instance, Japan experienced a real estate bubble, and now we are seeing the same. The era of easy wealth, where a 50 million Won apartment in Banpo could become 1.5 billion Won in a few years, is over.

  1. The Power of Quantitative Easing and Debt Annihilation
    The Japanese Prime Minister’s policy of printing vast sums of money and distributing it is known as quantitative easing. If I were President, my first act would be to implement a bold quantitative easing policy, not 30 years after Japan, but immediately. I would print 1,500 trillion Won to repay 100% of all household debt, making everyone debt-free. This would eliminate interest payments, which are a greater burden on the common people than rising prices. While prices might slightly increase, the relief from interest payments would be tenfold.

Our public officials, however, are preoccupied with controlling prices, oblivious to the crushing burden of interest payments. Much of the interest paid by Koreans goes to foreign-owned banks, draining our national wealth. I would print 1,500 trillion Won to repay the 1,300 trillion Won in household debt and all other personal debts. The state would not pursue repayment, making these loans unsecured and interest-free. This would free our citizens from debt, allowing them to live on pensions and the 700,000 Won monthly allowance I would provide to seniors, totaling 1.4 million Won for couples.

Our current political leaders, obsessed with preventing inflation, are misguided. They are “stone-headed” individuals who are leading the nation to ruin. The 1,500 trillion Won I propose to print would not cause significant inflation because much of the existing 50,000 Won notes are hoarded underground or sent overseas. By repaying all personal and small business debts, I would save countless individuals from the brink of suicide. I possess the genius to both destroy and revive the Korean economy.

  1. Exposing Corruption and Mismanagement of National Funds
    Our current economists, mostly graduates of Seoul National University, have never run a business. They are mere “number crunchers” who deserve severe punishment. They are the economic ministers and planners who have never experienced the real economy. They only consult with high-ranking bank officials who advocate for increasing household debt to boost bank profits. This is a rigged game, a conspiracy between banks, economists, and government officials. I would dismantle this system and repay all debts.

The 1,500 trillion Won in household debt is a direct consequence of political mismanagement. Former President Kim Dae-jung encouraged excessive credit card use to stimulate the economy, leading to a credit card crisis. Roh Moo-hyun further exacerbated this by allowing individuals to hold up to 15 credit cards, causing household debt to skyrocket. Under military governments like Park Chung-hee’s, such corruption was unthinkable. However, with the advent of civilian governments, political appointees infiltrated government-invested institutions, leading to a surge in national debt.

Consider the Seoul city bus companies. There are 66 private bus companies that receive 320 billion Won in annual subsidies from the Seoul Metropolitan Government. These funds are often distributed unfairly, with powerful individuals close to those in power securing larger shares. Bus company presidents earn an average annual salary of 550 million Won, while bus drivers, who number 15,000, earn an average of 40 million Won. The bus companies claim annual deficits of 6 billion Won, but if the exorbitant salaries of executives (averaging 2 billion Won per company) were removed, they would not be in deficit. These executives are often family members of the presidents, and even bus driver positions require substantial bribes. This rampant corruption is why our national debt continues to grow.

Furthermore, political parties receive massive government subsidies. In 2014, the Saenuri Party received 38 billion Won, the New Politics Alliance for Democracy 36 billion Won, and the Democratic Party 6.1 billion Won, totaling 80.3 billion Won. This is outrageous, as parties should be funded by their members. I estimate that 70% of the national budget is wasted on such fraudulent expenditures. If I were President, I would eliminate these wasteful spending streams, easily funding initiatives like 300 million Won for marriage and 30 million Won for childbirth.

Even civic organizations that align with the government receive funding, compromising their role as watchdogs. This makes my blood boil. I work tirelessly, writing books late into the night, and it pains me to see such “blind money” being distributed by corrupt officials. National assembly members, including their aides, collectively receive about 900 billion Won annually. Local government officials receive 1.3 trillion Won. These positions should be unpaid. If we eliminated these salaries, we would save 1 trillion Won annually. In the U.S., political parties receive no government funding and often operate with minimal staff. Our national budget is managed by individuals who deserve capital punishment for plundering the people’s money.

  1. The Middle-Class Economy: A Synthesis of Ideologies
    My vision for a Middle-Class Economy is a synthesis of Keynesian macroeconomics and Hayekian microeconomics, taking the best aspects of both. It is neither a state-controlled economy nor a purely market-driven one. Instead, it is a consumer-centric system where the consumer is king. This ensures that all citizens prosper, not just business owners. I would implement a “New Deal” for agriculture and revitalize the market economy. While Keynesian and Hayekian systems tend to benefit only the wealthy, my Middle-Class Economy aims to elevate all citizens to the middle class.

Hayek, a proponent of free markets, was invited to China by Deng Xiaoping in 1973. Hayek advised Deng to allow farmers to sell their produce freely in the market, leading to a rapid revitalization of the Chinese economy within three years. This demonstrates the power of market principles. However, even with capitalism, China still exhibits extreme wealth disparity.

I believe there should be an upper limit on personal wealth. For instance, if a company like Hanmi Pharmaceutical earns 10 trillion Won, a significant portion should be returned to the nation as taxes and distributed to employees. While the company chairman might donate 110 billion Won, which is commendable, it is a mere “elephant cracker” compared to the total earnings. I would advocate for distributing at least 10% of such profits to employees, making it a true Middle-Class Economy. This prevents excessive wealth accumulation by a few, which leads to societal imbalance.

Currently, 5% of the world’s population controls 90% of its wealth, a figure that is steadily increasing. This creates a system where the majority are “slaves to capital,” a concept articulated by Karl Marx. My Middle-Class Economy aims to flatten this curve, ensuring a more equitable distribution of wealth.

  1. National Debt and Misguided Policies
    Our national debt is staggering: 1,300 trillion Won in household debt, 100 trillion Won in local government debt, 300 trillion Won in public enterprise debt, and 5,000 trillion Won in foreign debt, totaling 6,700 trillion Won. This is 18 times our GDP, an astronomical figure. I am a master of economics and numbers, capable of calculating figures far beyond what any economist or computer can handle.

Our national defense budget is 37 trillion Won, 10% of the total budget. The Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism budget is 35 trillion Won. Yet, there is a fierce debate over providing meal subsidies for children in the Nuri program. This is a capital offense. We have the world’s lowest birthrate, and we should prioritize supporting mothers and children. I would provide 30 million Won for every child born, retroactively for the past 10 years. A family with three children would receive 90 million Won. I would resign if I failed to deliver on this promise. The money is available; it is simply being wasted by corrupt officials.

Furthermore, tax cuts for conglomerates amount to 200 trillion Won annually. I would abolish prisons for economic criminals, imposing heavy fines instead. For instance, a chairman who earned 10 trillion Won might pay a 2 trillion Won fine, with the money going to the state to repay public debt. This would regulate the wealth of conglomerates and eliminate prison operating costs.

  1. Historical Misjudgments and the Path Forward
    The issue of comfort women and forced laborers during the Japanese colonial era is a sensitive one. While I acknowledge the suffering, I believe the 800 million USD received from Japan by President Park Chung-hee was a comprehensive settlement. Other nations like the Philippines, Thailand, Myanmar, and Vietnam also received similar reparations but squandered them on political funds. Park Chung-hee, however, used the 800 million USD to build essential infrastructure like Pohang Steelworks and highways, laying the foundation for our economic development. At that time, our GNP was only 68 USD, while North Korea’s was 170 USD, and other Asian nations were around 200 USD. Thanks to Park Chung-hee’s prudent use of funds, our GNP has soared to 28,000 USD, while those other nations have stagnated.

Kim Young-sam’s decision to implement the real-name financial system and demolish the Japanese colonial government building was driven by “honor” rather than “practicality,” leading to economic decline. The “democratization” movement, which brought Kim Young-sam, Kim Dae-jung, Roh Moo-hyun, Lee Myung-bak, and Park Geun-hye to power, has fragmented our nation. The U.S. still uses an indirect electoral system, similar to Park Chung-hee’s “National Conference for Unification.” This system saves election costs and fosters national unity.

I would resolve the issues of comfort women and forced laborers by providing substantial compensation from national funds, without demanding further payments from Japan. This would ensure that all victims are adequately compensated, eliminating any lingering grievances.

Our national development can be categorized by GNP per capita:
10,000 USD: Requires manpower (labor).
20,000 USD: Requires technology.
30,000 USD: Requires etiquette (manners).
40,000 USD: Requires trust.
50,000 USD: Requires trust.

Japan, with a GNP of 50,000 USD, has already passed the etiquette stage. When I visited Japan 30 years ago, a taxi driver refused payment for guiding me, demonstrating their high level of etiquette. We, however, still engage in practices like overcharging taxi fares. Our public officials, instead of saving money, waste it to ensure their budgets are fully spent each year, leading to a “doomed nation.”

European Union countries prioritize manners in business dealings. Switzerland, with a GNP of 90,000 USD, exemplifies the importance of trust. While Japan and the U.S. implement quantitative easing to devalue their currencies and boost exports, we are pursuing a “tightening economy,” which is destroying our markets. Our exports have plummeted by 17%, an unprecedented decline under the Park Geun-hye administration. Our leaders, relying solely on calculators and “counting numbers,” fail to grasp the true nature of economics.

I am not a negative person, but I cannot tolerate the injustices faced by our people. Our current economic policies are suffocating the market. China’s economic rise was due to Deng Xiaoping’s pragmatic approach, encapsulated in the phrase “black cat, white cat,” meaning it doesn’t matter if a cat is black or white as long as it catches mice. This was my idea, which I shared with the President, to prioritize industrialization while temporarily setting aside democracy. Deng Xiaoping adopted this concept, focusing on economic development while maintaining communist rule.

I am observing every action of our politicians and officials, checking their bank accounts and records. You will witness unimaginable events unfold. Our Bank of Korea should also be reformed. Our economists, educated in a linear fashion, understand only “1 + 1 = 2.” I, however, understand “1 + 1 = 1.” For instance, if a company chairman earns 10 trillion Won, that wealth should largely contribute to the nation, with only a small portion remaining for personal use. This ensures a healthy life and national contribution without excessive personal accumulation.

The current global economic system, oscillating between Keynesian macroeconomics and Hayek’s microeconomics, has led to repeated crises like the IMF bailout. This talk introduces “Jung-san-ju-ui” (Middle-class-ism), a new economic paradigm that blends the best of both, prioritizing the consumer as “king” to ensure all citizens thrive, not just the wealthy.

  1. Global Economic Systems and the Need for “Jung-san-ju-ui”
    The global economy has cycled between Keynesian macroeconomics and Hayek’s microeconomics, leading to repeated crises, but a new paradigm called “Jung-san-ju-ui” (Middle-class-ism) is proposed to combine the best aspects of both, focusing on the consumer.

1.1. The Cycle of Economic Crises and Current Challenges
The world economy has repeatedly shifted between Keynesian macroeconomics and microeconomics, leading to crises like the IMF bailout in Korea .
Currently, the global economy is facing a crisis, including Korea, which economists complicate with complex diagnoses .
Economic indicators show rising prices and falling money value, leading to stagflation (rising prices, falling economy) and agflation (rising food prices, falling economy) .

1.2. Japan’s Inflationary Policy and Korea’s Contrasting Approach
Japan successfully created inflation by increasing the money supply and decreasing the value of the yen to boost exports .
In contrast, Korean politicians have focused on a market economy approach, which led to the IMF crisis .
Japan’s strategy involved the Prime Minister instructing the central bank to print trillions of yen and distribute it to the public, which devalued the currency and boosted exports .
This demonstrates that economic success often comes from bold, unconventional policies rather than traditional economic theories .
Japan is about 30 years ahead of Korea in economic trends, as seen with the real estate bubble that is now starting to appear in Korea .
The era of easy money and quick wealth, like buying an apartment for 50 million won and seeing it rise to 1.5 billion won, is over .
Japan’s period of excessive spending ended, leaving behind an aging population that saves rather than spends, with their money often leaving the country .
Japan’s policy of printing money is known as quantitative easing .

1.3. Proposed Economic Reforms: Quantitative Easing and Debt Forgiveness
As president, the speaker would implement quantitative easing by printing 1,500 trillion won to repay all household debt, making everyone debt-free .
This policy would eliminate interest payments for ordinary citizens, which are a greater burden than rising prices .
The speaker argues that Korean officials are overly concerned with inflation, while the real problem is the interest paid to foreign-owned banks .
The proposed debt repayment would be structured as a loan but effectively be a gift, as the government would not pursue repayment .
With no debt, citizens could live off pensions and welfare, such as the proposed 700,000 won per month for seniors (1.4 million won for couples) .

1.4. Critique of Current Economic Management and Government Waste
Current politicians are criticized for focusing on deflation and controlling prices, which the speaker calls “insane” .
The 1,500 trillion won needed for debt repayment is justified by the current 1,200-1,300 trillion won household debt, with an allowance for future increases .
The speaker believes that printing this money would not cause significant inflation because much of the existing high-denomination currency (50,000 won bills) is hidden or sent overseas .
This policy would save many small business owners from bankruptcy and suicide by eliminating their debts .
The speaker claims to be an economic genius, capable of both destroying and saving the Korean economy, unlike current economists who only deal with numbers and have no real-world business experience .
Current economic officials, including ministers and academics, are accused of colluding with banks to increase household debt for their own profit .

1.5. The Origins of Household Debt and Political Mismanagement
The speaker asserts that the 1,500 trillion won household debt is primarily the fault of politicians, not the citizens .
Past presidents, such as Kim Dae-jung and Roh Moo-hyun, encouraged excessive credit card use to stimulate the economy, leading to a massive increase in household debt .
During military governments like Park Chung-hee’s, household debt was minimal, but it surged under civilian governments .
The speaker attributes this rise to political appointees from democratic movements filling government and public enterprise positions, leading to increased national debt .
Unlike military leaders who strictly controlled corruption, civilian governments allowed widespread financial misconduct .
An example is given of Seoul bus companies, which are private but receive significant government subsidies, with executives earning exorbitant salaries and retirement benefits without doing much work .
This system is described as a “den of thieves” that has led to a drastic increase in national debt .

1.6. Corruption in Bus Company Subsidies and Political Funding
The Seoul city government provides 320 billion won annually to 66 bus companies, ostensibly to cover their deficits .
However, this money is not distributed fairly and is often siphoned off by executives connected to those in power .
Bus company presidents earn annual salaries of 550 million won, while bus drivers earn an average of 40 million won, despite the drivers facing accident risks and having to pay for minor accidents out of pocket .
Bus company executives, often family members of the president, receive high salaries (averaging 500 million won each), contributing to the companies’ reported deficits .
If executive salaries were excluded, many bus companies would not be in deficit .
There are also corruption issues in hiring bus drivers, with reports of bribes up to hundreds of millions of won required for employment .
The speaker criticizes the lack of public consultation for bus fare increases, which are decided by officials behind closed doors .
Political parties also receive substantial government funding; for example, the Saenuri Party received 38 billion won in 2014, and other parties received similar amounts, totaling 80.3 billion won .
The speaker argues that these parties should be funded by membership fees, not taxpayer money .
The speaker claims that 70% of government spending is wasted, and eliminating this waste would provide ample funds for welfare programs like marriage and childbirth subsidies .
Government-supported civic groups are also criticized for receiving funds while supposedly acting as watchdogs against the government .
The total annual cost for 300 National Assembly members and their aides is about 900 billion won, and local government officials cost 1.3 trillion won .
The speaker suggests these positions should be unpaid, saving trillions of won that could be used for public welfare .
Unlike Korea, the U.S. does not provide government funding to political parties, nor do parties have permanent headquarters; they operate with minimal staff and temporary offices during elections .
The speaker believes that those responsible for mismanaging the national budget should face severe punishment .

1.7. Proposed Reforms and Critique of Past Policies
The speaker claims to have advocated for reducing the number of National Assembly members to 100 and making their positions unpaid for 25-30 years, predating similar proposals by other politicians .
The speaker also claims credit for the current senior allowance system, stating that his proposal for 700,000 won was adapted into the current 200,000 won payment .
The speaker asserts that if he were president, he would meticulously oversee the national budget to prevent waste and corruption .
The speaker criticizes those who question the funding for his proposed policies, stating that he has identified 900 trillion won in underground funds that could be utilized .
The speaker introduces “Jung-san-ju-ui” (Middle-class-ism) as a new economic system that combines elements of Keynesian macroeconomics (government intervention, like Roosevelt’s New Deal) and Hayek’s microeconomics (market economy) .
Keynesian economics gained prominence but declined after the collapse of the Soviet Union, which was seen as a communist system similar to Marx’s ideas .
This led to a shift towards Hayek’s microeconomics, also known as neoliberalism or market economy .
“Jung-san-ju-ui” aims to make the consumer “king”, ensuring that all citizens prosper, not just businesses or the wealthy .
This system would incorporate elements like a “New Deal” for agriculture and market revitalization, aiming to create a middle-class society where all people thrive, unlike current systems that primarily benefit the wealthy .

  1. Economic Philosophy and National Mismanagement
    The speaker advocates for a shift from current economic mismanagement, characterized by excessive government spending and corruption, to a “Jung-san-ju-ui” system that prioritizes the well-being of all citizens through policies like debt forgiveness and controlled wealth accumulation.

2.1. Quantitative Easing and Debt Relief
The speaker reiterates that quantitative easing (printing money) to repay national debt would benefit citizens more than the slight inflation it might cause, as eliminating interest payments is a greater advantage .
The speaker estimates that 250 trillion won is wasted annually in the national budget, which could be redirected to citizens .
This, combined with the 1,500 trillion won for household debt, would inject approximately 2,000 trillion won into the economy, making individuals debt-free .

2.2. Proposed Political and Economic Reforms
The speaker proposes abolishing elections for superintendents of education and heads of local governments, replacing them with appointed positions to prevent national decline .
The speaker criticizes Korea’s financial real-name system and real estate real-name system, arguing that they have harmed the economy .
In Japan, where there is no financial real-name system, children are unaware of their parents’ wealth, encouraging them to work hard and be self-reliant .
In contrast, Korea’s system exposes family wealth, leading to potential family disputes and discouraging children from working .
This system also encourages wealthy Koreans to hide their money in countries like Hong Kong, Switzerland, Japan, and the U.S., which do not have financial real-name systems, causing capital flight from Korea .

2.3. Critique of Past Presidential Policies and Historical Context
The speaker criticizes former President Kim Young-sam for prioritizing “명분” (honor/justification) over “실리” (practical gain), citing the financial real-name system and the demolition of the Japanese colonial government building as examples that harmed the economy .
In contrast, President Park Chung-hee prioritized “실리” by accepting 800 million dollars in reparations from Japan, despite the historical grievances, to fund economic development projects like Pohang Iron and Steel Company and highways .
Unlike other countries that received similar aid and saw it squandered by politicians, Park Chung-hee ensured the funds were used exclusively for national development, leading to Korea’s rapid economic growth from a GDP of 68 dollars to 28,000 dollars .
The speaker highlights that North Korea, which was once twice as wealthy as South Korea, became impoverished, while countries like the Philippines and Thailand also failed to develop despite receiving aid .
The speaker criticizes the “democratization forces” for creating a “broken family” society, arguing that direct elections (democracy) have led to increased national debt and corruption under successive civilian governments .
The speaker suggests that an indirect election system, similar to the U.S. electoral college or Park Chung-hee’s National Conference for Unification, would be more efficient and less costly .

  1. Economic Vision and Critique of Current Practices
    The speaker outlines a vision for a transformed Korean economy under his leadership, emphasizing a departure from current wasteful practices and a move towards a more equitable system that benefits all citizens.

3.1. The “Jung-san-ju-ui” Economic Model
The speaker asserts that his presidency would reverse the current economic decline, implementing quantitative easing (printing 1,500 trillion won) to stimulate the economy, similar to how the U.S. prints dollars without causing inflation due to global demand .
The U.S. Federal Reserve is a private entity, allowing private individuals to control the money supply, whereas the Bank of Korea is state-owned .
The speaker criticizes Korea’s current tightening economic policy as detrimental, especially when combined with the government’s wasteful spending of 250 trillion won annually .
This “tightening” only applies to citizens, while those in power continue to spend excessively .

3.2. Lessons from China’s Economic Development
The speaker claims that China’s economic rise was influenced by his idea of “도민양해” (dominyanghae), which means “hiding democracy and fostering industrialization,” later adopted by Deng Xiaoping as “흑묘백묘” (black cat, white cat) .
Deng Xiaoping invited Hayek in 1973, who advised him to allow farmers to sell their produce in free markets, leading to China’s rapid economic recovery within three years .
This demonstrates the importance of practical economic policies over theoretical ones, a knowledge that the speaker claims current Korean politicians lack .

3.3. Addressing Wealth Inequality and Corporate Responsibility
The speaker criticizes the vast disparity between bus company executives’ salaries (550 million won) and bus drivers’ wages (40 million won), especially given the drivers’ risks and the corruption in hiring .
The speaker argues that while China became capitalist through Hayek’s influence, it still suffers from extreme wealth inequality .
The speaker proposes a cap on individual wealth, where any amount exceeding a certain limit would be taxed by the state .
An example is given of a pharmaceutical company chairman who earned 10 trillion won from a deal and stock increase but only distributed 110 billion won to employees, which the speaker considers a “crumb” .
The speaker believes that a significant portion (e.g., 7 trillion won) of such large profits should go to the state, and a larger share (e.g., 1.1 trillion won) should be distributed to employees .
This current form of capitalism, where wealth is concentrated, is seen as detrimental and leading to national decline, as evidenced by family disputes over inheritance .
The speaker’s “Jung-san-ju-ui” aims for a more equitable distribution of wealth, where a portion of large profits is shared with employees, moving closer to a middle-class-centric economy .
The speaker claims to monitor the actions of all politicians and officials, hinting at a future revelation .

  1. Economic Philosophy, National Debt, and Social Welfare
    The speaker contrasts his economic philosophy, which emphasizes fundamental principles and equitable distribution, with the current system’s focus on superficial numbers, while also detailing his plans for national debt reduction and comprehensive social welfare.

4.1. The Speaker’s Economic Philosophy: Constants vs. Variables
The speaker contrasts his economic approach, which uses constants (1+1=1), with that of Seoul National University economists, who use variables (1+1=2) .
In the speaker’s view, a wealthy individual’s contribution to the nation should be reflected in their tax payments and employee welfare, ensuring that their personal wealth does not increase disproportionately .
This approach aims for a healthy society where individuals can lead stable lives while contributing to the nation .
The speaker warns that current capitalism leads to extreme wealth concentration, where 5% of the world’s population controls 90% of its wealth, a trend that will only worsen, turning the majority into “slaves of capital,” as predicted by Karl Marx .
The speaker’s philosophy, based on fundamental numbers (1-5), aims to create a more balanced economic system, unlike the current focus on “imaginary numbers” (6-10) .
These fundamental numbers represent the five elements (wood, fire, water, metal, earth) and are seen as the basis for all things, including national policy .

4.2. National Debt and Welfare Proposals
The speaker clarifies that Seoul has 7,485 buses and 15,000 drivers, with 35,000 people hired annually, leading to hiring corruption .
The speaker asserts that waste is rampant not just in bus companies but across all public enterprises and government-supported institutions .
National Assembly members collectively receive 854.4 billion won annually, and their 35 privileges should be eliminated .
The speaker criticizes the current government’s handling of the “comfort women” issue, arguing that the 800 million dollars received from Japan by Park Chung-hee was a comprehensive settlement, and continuously demanding more money undermines national dignity .
The speaker believes that Korean “comfort women” would have committed suicide rather than endure such treatment, suggesting that the issue is being exploited for financial gain .
The speaker recounts an experience in Japan where a taxi driver refused payment for guiding him, highlighting the Japanese people’s strong sense of honor and adherence to agreements, which contrasts with Korea’s “beggar mentality” .
The speaker notes that Japan has a very low rate of lawsuits compared to Korea .

  1. Economic Development Stages and National Mismanagement
    The speaker outlines the stages of economic development based on per capita income, criticizing Korea’s inability to progress due to political corruption and mismanagement, while also proposing radical reforms for social welfare and wealth redistribution.

5.1. Stages of Economic Development and Korea’s Stagnation
The speaker defines economic development stages by per capita income: 10,000 dollars requires manpower (labor), 20,000 dollars requires technology, 30,000 dollars requires etiquette (manners), 40,000 dollars requires trust, and 50,000 dollars requires trust .
Japan, currently at 50,000 dollars, passed the 30,000-dollar etiquette stage 30 years ago, while Korea is still struggling to move from 20,000 to 30,000 dollars .
The speaker criticizes Korean public officials for actively wasting budgets to ensure future funding, leading to unnecessary spending on infrastructure and lavish entertainment .
This “destructive national policy” prevents Korea from progressing to higher stages of economic development .
The speaker notes that countries like Switzerland are at 90,000 dollars per capita, demonstrating the potential for growth beyond 50,000 dollars .
The speaker criticizes Korea’s continued tightening economic policy while other developed nations like Japan and the U.S. implement quantitative easing to boost exports .
Korea’s exports have decreased by 17% this year, a historical low, which the speaker attributes to the government’s failure to consult experts like himself .

5.2. National Debt and Welfare Proposals
Korea’s total national debt, including household, local government, public enterprise, and foreign debt, amounts to 6,700 trillion won (6.7 trillion dollars), which is 18 times its GDP .
The speaker claims to be a master of economics and numbers, capable of understanding and manipulating vast figures .
The speaker highlights the disproportionate allocation of the national budget: 37 trillion won for defense and 35 trillion won for culture and sports, while essential programs like childcare (Nuri program) face funding crises .
The speaker proposes that as president, he would ensure full funding for childcare and provide 30 million won for every child born, retroactively for up to 10 years, totaling 90 million won for families with three children .
The speaker asserts that the funds for these programs would come from eliminating government waste and redirecting taxes currently reduced for large corporations, which amount to 200 trillion won annually .

5.3. Prison Reform and Wealth Redistribution
The speaker proposes abolishing prisons for non-violent economic criminals, instead imposing large fines (e.g., 1 trillion won or a percentage of stock) .
This would generate significant revenue (estimated 100 trillion won annually), reduce prison operating costs, and free up legal personnel .
The speaker recounts his own experience in prison, describing it as a comfortable “hotel” where he wrote 10 books and composed 6 songs, highlighting the luxurious conditions provided to criminals .
The speaker argues that such conditions are inappropriate for criminals and that wealth should be confiscated from wealthy individuals who commit crimes, thereby controlling their accumulated assets .
This confiscated wealth could then be used to repay citizens’ debts .
The speaker emphasizes that wealthy individuals should share their profits with the public rather than hoarding them .

  1. Compensation for Historical Victims and Wealth Disparity
    The speaker addresses the issue of compensation for victims of historical events, emphasizing direct government payouts, and reiterates his commitment to addressing wealth disparity through his “Jung-san-ju-ui” economic model.

6.1. Compensation for Victims of Historical Events
The speaker agrees that victims of historical injustices, such as those forced into labor during the Japanese colonial era (징용자) and “comfort women”, as well as Vietnam War veterans, deserve compensation .
Vietnam War veterans would receive a lump sum of 500 million won and 3 million won monthly, similar to benefits in the U.S. .
Compensation would also be provided to deceased victims and their families .
The speaker states that these compensations, which were inadequately handled by past administrations, would be fully addressed by his government using national funds, without demanding further payments from Japan .

6.2. Addressing Wealth Disparity and Political Influence
The speaker addresses a question about the wealth accumulated by individuals like Noh So-young, linking it to political power and influence .
The speaker reiterates that his “Jung-san-ju-ui” system would prevent excessive individual wealth accumulation through taxation, ensuring that such wealth is redistributed .
The speaker assures that under his leadership, such injustices would not occur, and the focus would be on a fair economic system

The Collapse of Capitalism and the Revival of Middle-Classism

The Crisis of Capitalism and the Rise of the Elite
The current economic landscape, much like historical dynasties such as Goryeo, is characterized by a severe imbalance of wealth and power. In the Goryeo Dynasty, nobles owned vast tracts of land and were exempt from taxes, leading to the collapse of the kingdom as the burden fell disproportionately on low-ranking farmers . Today, a similar phenomenon is observed where a mere 5% of the population controls 90% of the nation’s wealth . This concentration of capital is exemplified by the rapid expansion of conglomerates, which have grown from 700 affiliated companies a decade ago to approximately 7,000 today . Despite tax benefits intended to foster their growth, these conglomerates have become “black holes,” accumulating public funds and investing them overseas, exacerbating economic hardship and unemployment . This trend signifies the collapse of the middle class, a situation mirrored in the United States where 5% of the population controls 90% of global wealth . This is the inherent flaw and ultimate collapse of capitalism .

Politicians, instead of addressing this systemic issue, are often preoccupied with personal gain, leaving the vast majority of the population—95%—in a state of destitution . This capitalist system, while initially appearing to create wealth, ultimately leads to widespread impoverishment as money is technically drained from the populace .

The Philosophy of Middle-Class Revival and the True Sun
Huh Kyung young advocates for the resurrection of “middle-classism,” an ideology rooted in the ancient community structures of Eden, where ancestors lived in a middle-class society . This philosophy seeks to revive what has been lost and abandoned in the current capitalist system . The lecture’s core message revolves around “the truth of the fall of capitalism and the resurrection of middle-class revival,” which Huh Kyung young asserts is the solution to the contemporary problems faced by both the United States and Korea .

Central to Huh Kyung young’s philosophy is the concept of the “true sun” (Jin Tae-yang), which he identifies with himself . He describes the true sun as an eternal, self-luminous entity made of raw diamond, distinct from the visible sun, which is merely a ball of fire perceived due to special atomic theory . This true sun represents the fundamental nature (Jin-seong) described in the Cheonbugyeong, encompassing all suns in the universe, which are countless . Huh Kyung young claims to embody this true sun, having received the Cheonbugyeong from heaven . He asserts that the true sun has a natural mission for this era, which is to guide humanity . The Cheonbugyeong’s principle of “a beginning without a beginning” (Musi-sisa) signifies a circular, eternal nature, contrasting with the temporary and ignored aspects of capitalism .

The Cheonbugyeong and the Nature of Existence
The Cheonbugyeong’s principles extend to the fundamental nature of existence, including atomic structure and the human mind. Atoms, the building blocks of matter, are composed of three primary elements: protons, neutrons, and electrons . This tripartite structure is mirrored in the infinite proliferation of cells, which, when entering a woman’s womb, multiply to form a human body . This growth, however, is divinely regulated, stopping at a certain height (e.g., 160-170 cm) to prevent abnormal, cancerous growth . These three invisible components are the infinite source and fundamental body of the universe .

The Diamond Sutra also speaks to this, stating that all things in the universe, whether people or matter, are called “Samseilchebul” (Three Bodies in One Buddha) . This concept implies that everything is interconnected and ultimately a manifestation of the mind . Our minds and souls are attached to atoms, and by letting go of greed, one realizes that all matter and the entire Dharma realm are expressions of the mind .

The Flawed Logic of Capitalism: 1+1=2 vs. 1+1=1
Huh Kyung young critiques capitalism through a unique mathematical analogy: 1+1=1, not 2. He explains that in the natural order, such as a mother and father (1+1) producing a child (1), the outcome is a unified entity, not an increase in number . If 1+1 were to equal 2, it would represent abnormal, cancerous growth . Capitalism, however, operates on the principle of continuous increase, where the wealth of conglomerates constantly expands, leading to a corresponding decrease in the wealth of the majority . This constant competition and growth-oriented mindset cause people to feel like beggars, even when they remain stagnant, because others are accumulating wealth . The universe’s truth, according to Huh Kyung young, is a constant (Sangso), where yin and yang meet to become one, reflecting the Cheonbugyeong’s principle of a beginning without an end, where the end is the beginning .

The Fall of Rome and the Significance of Attire
Huh Kyung young uses the fall of the Roman Empire to illustrate the impact of cultural and societal choices, particularly regarding attire. Rome’s decline was not solely due to external invasions by tribes like the Franks and Angles . A significant, albeit unconventional, factor he cites is the Roman soldiers’ practice of wearing skirts .

According to Huh Kyung young, women’s skirts are designed to allow earth energy to rise into their bodies, promoting health and fertility . Men, however, should avoid direct absorption of earth energy through their lower bodies, as it can lead to illness in their testicles . Therefore, men traditionally wear trousers that cover their legs, and suits with wide shoulders are meant to receive the energy of the universe and sky . Women, conversely, should not expose their chests to the sky’s energy, as it can negatively affect their lungs . The Roman soldiers’ miniskirts, by allowing earth energy to enter from below, weakened them, contributing to their eventual defeat . This contrasts with the Huns, who wore tight leg coverings for horse riding, preventing the circulation of yin energy from below and enhancing their strength . Huh Kyung young connects this to modern capitalism, where the fashion industry, driven by profit, promotes revealing women’s clothing, often at exorbitant prices, which he views as a symptom of capitalist corruption . He recounts observing such attire at a Bush party, which reinforced his belief in the collapse of American capitalism .

The Eight Energy Cycles and the Flaws of Capitalism
Life is sustained by eight energy cycles, which include personality, mind, ears, body, vitality, touch, breath, and emotions . These eight elements are also enumerated in the Cheonbugyeong as the components that sustain our physical bodies . Middle-classism, as an ideology, embraces these eight cycles as they are . Capitalism, however, is inherently flawed because it fails to properly integrate these eight elements, leading to its structural collapse . This deficiency prevents the formation of a complete and balanced system, unlike the natural order where these eight elements are in harmony.

The Law of Energy Conservation and Divine Intervention
The law of energy conservation, often expressed as MC magnetism, governs the physical world . In this framework, energy is neither created nor destroyed but transformed, as seen when oil burns in a car to produce energy . Huh Kyung young challenges the notion of perpetual motion or cars running without fuel, asserting that such phenomena are impossible within the conventional understanding of energy conservation . However, he claims that through his divine power, such impossibilities can be overcome . He positions himself as the “white peak” of the universe, capable of transcending these laws . He cites the recent earthquake in Iksan, occurring 500 km underground, as evidence of the Earth’s immense power and his own divine connection to its creation . He states that he, the creator of this vast Earth, has taken human form to correct humanity’s misguided path .

The Corruption of Politics and the Need for Reform
Huh Kyung young vehemently criticizes the current political system, asserting that politicians are responsible for the nation’s economic woes. He claims that after President Park Chung-hee’s era, subsequent civilian governments, starting with Kim Young-sam and Kim Dae-jung, brought in “lines of thieves” who accumulated massive national and household debts . This corruption has led to a loss of public spirit and a state where people are constantly anxious and struggling . He argues that politicians have stripped the people of their “paths,” taking away their money and fostering negative emotions, leading to a decline in physical and mental well-being .

He proposes radical reforms, including changing the names of the National Assembly and its members . He suggests renaming the National Assembly to “Minhae” (People’s Assembly) to reflect its true purpose as a body that conveys the people’s will, rather than a separate entity that obstructs the president’s agenda . He believes that the current system, with its three branches of government, creates inefficiency and conflict, as 300 National Assembly members can undermine the strong leadership of a president elected by the absolute support of the people . He also criticizes the funding of political parties with public taxes, arguing that such funds should be used to help the elderly and children .

The Importance of Filial Piety and Family Bonds
Huh Kyung young emphasizes the profound importance of filial piety (hyo) and strong family bonds, which he considers the best ideology after middle-classism . He contrasts this with the current state of society, where capitalism has inverted traditional values, leading to estranged family relationships . He describes an ideal family where parents and children are close, eagerly awaiting each other’s return, and living happily together . He warns that strictness can ruin a family, advocating for parents to be one with their children to ensure support in old age .

He also offers a unique perspective on marital relationships, suggesting that while children and parents should be close, spouses should maintain a degree of distance and privacy . He argues that a wife is a representative of her in-laws’ house, and a husband of his, implying a need for mutual respect and boundaries . He stresses the importance of not prying into a spouse’s activities, as discovering such details can ruin a family . He laments that capitalism has created a phenomenon where elderly parents die alone, and their children are too busy to care, receiving news of their passing from hospital staff rather than being present . He urges people to cherish their parents and respond with love and empathy when they call, as these moments may be their last .

China’s Four Processes and the Vision for Korea
Huh Kyung young outlines China’s “four major processes” as public, eastern, cultural fairness, and military power, which he believes are leading to China’s dominance . He argues that China is aggressively expanding its economic influence, aiming to “eat up” other economies, while Korea remains stagnant . He asserts that his ideology of middle-classism is superior to Confucianism and Mencius, advocating for a system without borders, indiscriminate discrimination, or political parties .

For Korea, he proposes a vision of national transformation. This includes relocating Seoul National University to Chungcheong Province and expanding it into a “Megaversity Uni Seoul” with 1 million students, attracting international students . He suggests that all national universities in the provinces should automatically be renamed Seoul National University, with their campuses becoming branches and faculty significantly upgraded . This would boost the pride of the Korean people and reduce the number of failing local universities . He also advocates for the closure of all private universities to strengthen and consolidate higher education . These reforms, he believes, will eliminate regional disparities and foster a unified national identity, much like his proposal to merge Jeolla and Gyeongsang provinces into “Gyeongjeondo” and Chungcheong and Gangwon provinces into “Chunggwang” .

The Problem of Party Classism and the Future of Governance
Huh Kyung young criticizes the “party classism” prevalent in communist countries like North Korea and China, where the party holds absolute power over government officials . He argues that this system is outdated and antithetical to egalitarianism, leading to a “party chaos” in Korea . He believes that to transition to middle-classism, Korea must completely abandon the ideologies of democracy and capitalism .

He envisions a future where political parties are eliminated, and National Assembly members serve as true representatives of their regions, free from party influence . In this system, a National Assembly member from Jinju would represent the “Jinju Party,” and one from Eunpyeong-gu would represent the residents of Eunpyeong-gu, without interference from a central party . This would restore the true spirit of public petition and ensure that representatives genuinely serve their constituents . He asserts that if he becomes president, there will be no political party support funds or nominations, and any employee advocating for such things would be immediately dismissed

The Collapse of Capitalism and the Rise of Middle-Class Ideology

Just as the Goryeo Dynasty collapsed when the nobility owned all the land and evaded taxes, leaving the burden on low-ranking farmers, modern society faces a similar crisis. In Korea, 5% of the population controls 90% of the nation’s wealth. Ten years ago, the top 30 conglomerates had 700 subsidiaries; now they have around 7,000. The policy of fostering these conglomerates with tax benefits, intended to boost the economy, has instead created a “black hole” where national wealth is accumulated and invested overseas. This has led to a struggling economy, rising unemployment, and an exponential increase in the wealth of the rich, while the middle class collapses. This phenomenon is not unique to Korea; the United States also sees 5% of its population controlling 90% of its wealth, signaling the collapse of capitalism .

  1. The True Sun and the Origins of Humanity
    The speaker, born on a “Byeongsin” day in a “Byeongja” month, identifies as a “son of the sun.” He explains that there are two suns: the visible, or “false,” sun that provides heat and sustains life on Earth, and the “true sun,” which is the fundamental essence of the universe. The visible sun, composed of raw diamonds, emits light but is not a ball of fire; its light creates the phenomenon we perceive. The true sun, referenced in the Cheonbugyeong, represents all suns in the universe, numbering in the trillions. This concept extends to the origin of humanity, where the founders of nations are described as descendants from heaven who intermingled with earthly beings. This lineage traces back to figures like Adam and Hwanung, suggesting a divine origin for humanity .

  2. The Cycle of Life and Post-Mortem Transformation
    Life on Earth is presented as a period for “post-mortem transformation.” Just as a building eventually becomes buried underground due to the Earth’s constant movement, everything visible is temporary and virtual. The speaker suggests that one’s actions in this life determine their appearance and circumstances in the next. For instance, by cultivating generosity and helping the poor, one can be reborn into a wealthy family. This perspective reframes life as an opportunity for spiritual and physical refinement, where individuals can consciously shape their future existence rather than passively enduring their current state .

  3. The Principles of Middle-Class Ideology and the Flaws of Capitalism
    Capitalism is criticized for its inherent flaw: the constant desire for increase, where “one plus one equals two.” This leads to the endless accumulation of wealth by a few, while the majority struggle. In contrast, the “middle-class ideology” (Jung San Ju Ui) posits that “one plus one equals one,” representing balance and stability. This principle, rooted in ancient communal societies like Eden, emphasizes that true prosperity comes from emptying one’s mind and sharing resources, rather than endless accumulation. The speaker asserts that capitalism, by fostering greed and competition, disrupts the natural order and leads to societal collapse, making the revival of middle-class ideology essential .

  4. The Eight Energy Cycles of Life and the Limitations of Capitalism
    Life is sustained by eight energy cycles: essence, vitality, spirit, mind, emotion, breath, touch, and consciousness. These elements, described in the Cheonbugyeong, form the foundation of existence. Middle-class ideology embraces all eight, ensuring a balanced and harmonious life. Capitalism, however, inherently disrupts these cycles, leading to structural collapse. The speaker illustrates this with an analogy to atomic structure, where a balanced number of protons, neutrons, and electrons is crucial for stability. Just as cells stop growing at a certain point due to divine intervention, unchecked growth in capitalism leads to societal “cancer.” The law of energy conservation, while fundamental to the physical world, can be transcended by higher powers, implying that human systems like capitalism are not absolute and can be reformed .

  5. The Fall of Rome and the Dangers of Unnatural Practices
    The fall of the Roman Empire is attributed to its soldiers wearing skirts, which, according to the speaker, allowed “earth energy” to enter men’s bodies, weakening them. In contrast, men should wear trousers that restrict this energy, while women should wear skirts to absorb it for health. This cultural deviation, driven by capitalist tendencies to exploit fashion for profit, is presented as a symptom of societal decay. The speaker observes similar trends in modern fashion, where men’s pants are becoming narrower and women’s tighter, leading to illness and a decline in societal well-being. This serves as a cautionary tale against practices that go against natural principles, highlighting how seemingly minor cultural shifts can have profound consequences .

  6. The Corruption of Political Systems and the Need for Reform
    The speaker criticizes the current political system, particularly the National Assembly, for its corruption and inefficiency. He argues that politicians, entrusted with the operation of capitalism, have instead enriched themselves, leaving the majority in poverty. He proposes renaming the National Assembly to “Minuiwon” (People’s Assembly) to reflect its true purpose as a body representing the people’s will, rather than a separate power center. He also advocates for eliminating political parties and their associated funding, arguing that parties create divisions and prioritize their own interests over national welfare. This radical reform aims to empower individual representatives to serve their constituents directly, fostering a more accountable and effective government .

  7. The Importance of Filial Piety and Familial Bonds
    The traditional “Three Bonds and Five Relationships” (Samgang Oryun) are reinterpreted to emphasize the importance of genuine familial closeness. While couples should maintain a degree of “separateness” (Yubyeol) to preserve individual privacy and respect, parents and children should cultivate “closeness” (Yuchin). The speaker laments that modern capitalism has inverted these values, leading to distant parent-child relationships where elderly parents die alone, and children are too busy to connect. He stresses that true filial piety involves emotional connection and support, not just formal obligations. This highlights a moral decay in society, where the pursuit of material wealth has eroded fundamental human bonds

Heo Gyeong-yeong argues that capitalism, with its inherent drive for endless growth (1+1=2), inevitably leads to societal collapse and moral decay, as seen in the concentration of wealth and breakdown of family bonds. He proposes “middle-classism” as an alternative, where 1+1=1, ensuring stability and a return to fundamental human values.

  1. The Collapse of Capitalism and the Rise of Middle-Classism
    Heo Gyeong-yeong argues that capitalism, driven by endless growth, inevitably leads to societal collapse and moral decay, as seen in the concentration of wealth and breakdown of family bonds, proposing “middle-classism” as an alternative to ensure stability and a return to fundamental human values.

1.1. Historical Precedents of Societal Collapse
Historical examples demonstrate how wealth concentration leads to societal collapse
The Goryeo Dynasty fell because nobles owned all the land and didn’t pay taxes, leaving low-ranking farmers to bear the tax burden.
Similarly, the current situation in Korea shows 5% of the population controlling 90% of the nation’s wealth.
This pattern is also observed in the United States, where 5% of the population controls 90% of the world’s money.

1.2. Capitalism’s Inherent Flaws and Its Downfall
Capitalism’s fundamental principle of “1+1=2” drives endless growth, leading to societal problems
This constant desire for increase is likened to cancer cells, which grow without stopping.
The wealth of conglomerates continuously increases, while the number of people without money decreases.
This creates a competitive environment where those who remain still feel like beggars compared to those who accumulate wealth.
Capitalism has reached its end due to wealth concentration and moral decay
5% of the population controls 90% of global real estate and cash, leading to a failure in wealth distribution.
Politicians prioritize personal gain, leaving 95% of the population impoverished.
The current problems in both the United States and Korea stem from capitalism’s structural flaws.
Capitalism, while creating wealth for some, ultimately leaves many penniless and focuses on material possessions that eventually become empty.
The collapse of American capitalism was evident in the extravagant parties of the wealthy, where expensive clothes symbolized corruption and moral decay.
Max Weber’s capitalist ideology has led to a loss of morals and created conflict among couples.

1.3. The Solution: Middle-Classism and Its Principles
Middle-classism, based on the principle of “1+1=1,” offers stability and a return to fundamental values
This principle means that when two entities combine, they become one, preventing endless growth and anxiety.
In a middle-class society, the government provides a national dividend, ensuring employment and reducing anxiety.
This ideology is superior to mercantilism and transcends political parties, focusing on the well-being of the country.
Middle-classism aims to restore lost values, promote warmth, soften personalities, enrich emotions, and teach proper breathing techniques, leading to personal improvement.
The core ideology of the Korean people is filial piety, which emphasizes close family relationships and is considered the best ideology on Earth, especially after middle-classism.
To achieve middle-classism, it is necessary to completely abandon the ideologies of democracy and capitalism.

  1. The True Nature of the Universe and Human Existence
    Heo Gyeong-yeong explains that the universe operates on fundamental principles, including the existence of true suns and the cyclical nature of time and matter, emphasizing that human life is a temporary, virtual experience designed for spiritual growth and transformation.

2.1. The True Sun and the Nature of Reality
The universe contains multiple “true suns” made of raw diamond, which are eternal and self-luminous
These true suns are not balls of fire but appear so due to special atomic theories.
There are countless suns and Earths in the universe, far too many to count.
The sun we see in the sky is a visible sun, but there is also a true, unseen sun.
The true sun represents the fundamental nature of the Cheonbugyeong, a heavenly scripture.
Time and physical reality are virtual and cyclical
Everything visible is virtual, and time multiplies, causing physical structures to eventually disappear underground.
The universe operates on a principle of no beginning and no end, forming a continuous circle.
This cyclical nature is reflected in the constant transformation of matter, such as human bones becoming soil nutrients.

2.2. The Atomic Structure and Life’s Energy Cycle
Atoms, the fundamental units of matter, consist of three main components: protons, neutrons, and electrons
These three components are the infinite source of the universe and the fundamental origin of all things.
Cells grow to a predetermined size (e.g., 160-170 cm for humans) and then stop, indicating divine intervention.
The human mind and soul are attached to atoms, and all matter is interconnected
The Diamond Sutra states that if a person lets go of greed, they realize that all things in the universe are part of the mind.
The human mind has the power to create cities and civilizations.
Life is sustained by an eight-cycle energy system, which capitalism disrupts
These eight elements—energy, personality, mind, ears, body, vitality, touch, and breath—are essential for life and are listed in the Cheonbugyeong.
Capitalism, by its nature, fails to form these eight elements, leading to its structural collapse.
The law of energy conservation, which states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, is a fundamental principle that human power cannot escape.

2.3. The Purpose of Human Life and Post-Death Transformation
Life is a period for spiritual growth and transformation, influencing one’s afterlife
The 100 years of life are given to change one’s appearance in the afterlife through actions.
By helping the poor and giving money to others, one can be reborn into a rich family.
Those who waste their lives without purpose may be reborn as animals.
Emptying one’s mind in this life leads to gaining everything and becoming rich in the next.
Leaving money to children and the needy after death can lead to being reborn into a wealthy or good family.

  1. Critiques of Current Political and Social Systems
    Heo Gyeong-yeong criticizes the current political and social systems for their corruption, inefficiency, and deviation from fundamental human values, advocating for radical reforms in governance, education, and family structures to restore national pride and well-being.

3.1. Failures of Capitalism and Political Corruption
Conglomerates, despite tax benefits, act as “black holes” by accumulating wealth and investing it overseas, harming the national economy
This leads to widespread unemployment and suffering for ordinary citizens.
Politicians are corrupt, prioritizing personal gain over public welfare, leading to national debt and societal decay
Public corporation debt, national debt, local government debt, and household debt have all skyrocketed under civilian governments.
This corruption has stripped people of their spirit, money, and even their ability to maintain healthy relationships, leading to anxiety and illness.
Politicians exploit public funds for election costs and party support, rather than using them to help the elderly and children.
The government fails to support struggling businesspeople, instead labeling them as bad credit and trampling them.
There is enough money in the national budget to provide welfare if it were not mismanaged through projects like the Four Major Rivers Project and capital relocation.

3.2. Historical and Cultural Factors in Societal Decline
The fall of Rome was partly due to Roman soldiers wearing skirts, which allowed “earth energy” to weaken them
Men should wear pants that tie at the ankles to prevent yin energy from circulating from below, while women should wear skirts to absorb earth energy.
Men’s clothing, like suits with wide shoulders, is designed to receive “sky energy,” whereas women’s clothing should cover the chest to protect their lungs from this energy.
Modern fashion trends, such as narrow pants for men and tight pants for women, are detrimental to health and societal well-being
Narrow pants for men are a bad sign, while tight pants make women sicker.

3.3. Proposed Reforms for Governance and Education
The National Assembly should be reformed to truly represent the people and reduce political party influence
The name of the National Assembly should be changed to “Minhae” (People’s Assembly) to reflect its role as the people’s representative.
The president, elected by the people, should have strong power to run the country, rather than constantly begging the National Assembly for laws.
Political parties are private organizations that misuse national budgets for their own elections and operations.
China and North Korea’s “party classism,” where the party holds absolute power over government officials, is an outdated and problematic ideology.
Eliminating political parties would allow National Assembly members to become true workers for their regions, directly serving residents without party interference.
This would restore the true spirit of public petition, which has been lost to party politics.
Educational reforms are needed to enhance national pride and efficiency
Seoul National University should be relocated to Chungcheong Province, expanded into a “Megaversity” with 1 million students, and attract international students.
All national universities in the provinces should be renamed Seoul National University, and private universities should be closed to reduce and strengthen the university system.
This would boost the pride of Korean people and eliminate the stigma associated with graduating from local universities.
Just as provincial names were merged (e.g., Jeolla and Gyeongsang into Gyeongjeondo), university names should also be unified.

3.4. Reforming Family and Social Values
Traditional family values, such as the Three Bonds and Five Relationships, have been distorted by capitalism
The traditional concept of a rich man having a wife and husband, and “exile” meaning non-interference, has been reversed.
While children and parents should be close, couples should maintain a degree of separation to preserve their individual identities and secrets.
Excessive monitoring and interference in a spouse’s activities can ruin a family.
Capitalism has led to a breakdown of family bonds, where children neglect their elderly parents, leaving them to die alone.
This neglect causes immense emotional pain for parents, who long for connection with their children.
A strong moral framework is essential for societal order and justice
Strict penalties, such as execution for assaulting a teacher, are necessary to restore order and prevent moral decay.
Even minor offenses, like spitting in public, should be met with firm punishment, as seen in other countries.

3.5. Heo Gyeong-yeong’s Vision and Past Predictions
Heo Gyeong-yeong’s 33-point strategy, made 25 years ago, accurately predicted future societal changes
His predictions included changing Korea’s time to the Korean Peninsula standard and removing divorce records from family registers, both of which have been implemented.

What economic concept describes a situation where prices rise, and the value of money falls?

① Deflation
② Stagflation
③ Inflation
④ Quantitative easing

(③ Inflation, Inflation is characterized by rising prices and a decrease in the purchasing power of money. Deflation is the opposite, while stagflation involves rising prices alongside economic stagnation. Quantitative easing is a monetary policy to increase money supply, which can lead to inflation but isn’t the definition itself.)

True or False: According to the speaker, Japan’s Prime Minister successfully used macroeconomics to create inflation, thereby increasing exports by lowering the value of the yen.
(True, The speaker states that Japan’s Prime Minister intentionally created inflation, causing prices to rise and the yen’s value to fall, which successfully boosted exports.)

What term refers to the economic policy where the government actively controls the economy, as exemplified by Roosevelt’s New Deal?
(Government-controlled economy, The speaker mentions Roosevelt’s New Deal as an example of a government-controlled economy, which is a key aspect of Keynesian macroeconomics.)

Fill in the blank: The speaker claims that the total amount of wasted money from the national budget annually is approximately _____ trillion won.
(250, The speaker explicitly states that about 250 trillion won is wasted from the national budget in one year.)

True or False: The speaker argues that the real-name financial system in Korea has negatively impacted the economy by exposing personal wealth, leading to issues like family disputes and capital outflow.
(True, The speaker criticizes the real-name financial system, stating it allows family members to know about hidden wealth, discourages work, and causes money to flow out to countries without such systems.)

What is the speaker’s proposed solution for household debt in Korea?
① Implement austerity measures
② Increase interest rates
③ Print 1,500 trillion won to pay off all debt
④ Encourage more borrowing

(③ Print 1,500 trillion won to pay off all debt, The speaker proposes printing 1,500 trillion won to completely pay off household and individual debts, making everyone debt-free.)

Intermediate
According to the speaker, what is the primary difference between the economic approaches of Keynes and Hayek, and how does “middle-class economics” aim to integrate them?
(Keynes advocated for macroeconomics and a government-controlled economy (like the New Deal), while Hayek championed microeconomics and a market economy (neoliberalism). Middle-class economics, as proposed, aims to combine the best aspects of both, focusing on making consumers “king” rather than sellers or the government.)

The speaker criticizes the current political system in Korea, citing examples of corruption in public institutions. Briefly explain one example provided.
(The speaker details corruption in Seoul’s bus companies, where 66 private companies receive 320 billion won in annual government support. Executives, often family members of those in power, earn exorbitant salaries (e.g., 550 million won annually for a CEO, 500 million for executives) while drivers earn 40 million won. These companies report deficits due to executive salaries, which the government then compensates, despite audits being infrequent and biased.)

What is “stagflation” and “eggflation,” and how do they differ from simple “inflation” according to the speaker’s brief definitions?
(Inflation is when prices rise and the value of money falls. Stagflation adds economic decline to rising prices. Eggflation is a specific type of stagflation where rising agricultural product prices contribute to rising prices and economic decline.)

The speaker contrasts the economic development strategies of President Park Chung-hee with those of other Asian countries that received similar aid. What was Park Chung-hee’s key differentiator?
(President Park Chung-hee prioritized “실리” (practicality/substance) over “명분” (justification/cause). He used the $800 million received from Japan entirely for economic development, building infrastructure like Pohang Iron and Steel Company and highways, rather than for political funds or luxurious projects, unlike other countries that squandered their aid.)

Advanced
The speaker argues that current capitalism, where 5% of the world owns 90% of the wealth, is unsustainable and leads to “slaves to capital.” How does the speaker propose to address this wealth inequality, using the analogy of “constants” versus “coefficients”?
(The speaker proposes a “middle-class economy” that regulates individual wealth accumulation. Using the analogy of “constants” (1+1=1) versus “coefficients” (1+1=2), he suggests that individuals should retain wealth proportional to their contribution to the country, with excess wealth (beyond a certain “constant” limit) being taxed heavily and used for public welfare. This prevents exponential wealth growth for a few and aims for a more equitable distribution.)

Explain the speaker’s critique of the “real-name financial system” and “real-name real estate system” in Korea, contrasting it with Japan’s approach. What are the alleged negative consequences for individuals and the national economy?
(The speaker criticizes Korea’s real-name financial and real estate systems for exposing personal wealth, which he claims leads to children waiting for their parents’ death instead of working, family disputes, and capital flight to countries like Japan, Switzerland, and Hong Kong that lack such systems. He argues that Japan’s lack of a real-name system encourages self-sufficiency and allows individuals to manage their wealth discreetly, preventing these issues and fostering economic growth.)

The speaker claims that China’s economic rise was influenced by an idea he developed at 21, which Deng Xiaoping adopted as “black cat, white cat.” Describe this idea and its core principle.
(The speaker claims his idea, “도민양해” (Doh-min-yang-hae), which translates to “hide democracy and foster industrialization,” was adopted by Deng Xiaoping as the “black cat, white cat” theory. The core principle is that the color of the cat (ideology, like communism or capitalism) doesn’t matter as long as it catches mice (promotes economic development). This meant temporarily setting aside democratic or communist ideals to prioritize industrial growth and market liberalization, as advised by Hayek to Deng Xiaoping.)

The speaker criticizes the current government’s “austerity” policy. What are his main arguments against it, and what alternative economic approach does he advocate for Korea, drawing parallels with Japan and the US?
(The speaker argues that austerity policies, while seemingly tightening belts, actually lead to market stagnation and harm the common people, who have no money to spend. He criticizes the government for wasting vast sums (e.g., 250 trillion won annually) while imposing austerity on citizens. He advocates for “quantitative easing” (printing money) and inflation, similar to Japan and the US, to lower the currency’s value, boost exports, and pay off household debt, thereby stimulating the economy and improving people’s lives.)

Huh Kyung young’s Centrism: A Philosophical Critique of Macro and Microeconomics

Date: 2016.01.09

Keywords: Centrism, Macroeconomics, Microeconomics, Quantitative Easing, Household Debt

Content

The Crisis of Conventional Economics
The global economy is currently grappling with significant challenges, oscillating between macroeconomics and microeconomics, leading to recurrent crises such as the IMF bailout. This instability has culminated in the current market economy, which is now facing severe difficulties. The Korean economy, in particular, is experiencing a critical situation where the value of money is rising while prices are falling, a phenomenon distinct from typical inflation where prices rise and money value falls. This economic instability, characterized by rising prices and a declining economy (stagflation), is a global trend that requires a clear diagnosis. However, economists often present overly complex analyses, leading to public confusion.

Japan’s Economic Strategy and Its Implications
Japan’s Prime Minister has actively pursued macroeconomic policies, notably succeeding in generating inflation by intentionally lowering the value of the Yen to boost exports. This state-controlled economic approach, involving the printing of vast sums of money and distributing it to the populace, aimed to stimulate the economy and increase exports, which it successfully achieved. In contrast, Korean politicians have been criticized for their cautious approach, leaving economic management largely to market forces, particularly after the IMF crisis. Huh Kyung young argues that Korea should adopt a bold inflationary policy, similar to Japan’s, but with a focus on domestic welfare rather than solely exports.

Huh Kyung young’s Vision for Economic Reform
Huh Kyung young proposes a radical economic reform centered on eliminating household debt. He advocates for printing 1,500 trillion won to pay off 100% of common people’s household debt, thereby making everyone’s debt zero. This policy would free individuals from interest payments, which he argues are a greater burden than rising prices. He criticizes the current government’s focus on price stability while ignoring the crippling effects of interest on the working and middle classes. Huh Kyung young asserts that foreign banks are extracting wealth from the nation through interest payments, and his plan would redirect this wealth back to the citizens.

Addressing National Waste and Corruption
Huh Kyung young contends that a significant portion of the national budget is wasted or siphoned off through corruption. He highlights that a substantial amount of money is hidden in 50,000 won bills, often smuggled overseas due to the real-name financial system. He proposes that by eliminating this waste and corruption, the government could easily afford to pay off household debt. He criticizes politicians for creating policies that exacerbate household debt, such as encouraging excessive credit card use, which he claims led to a massive increase in debt under civilian governments compared to previous military regimes.

Critique of Public Enterprise Management
Huh Kyung young provides a scathing critique of the management of public enterprises, using Seoul’s bus companies as a prime example. He alleges that executives of these companies, often political appointees, receive exorbitant salaries (averaging 500 million won annually) and severance packages (up to 3 billion won), while performing minimal work. These companies, despite receiving substantial government subsidies (320 billion won annually for Seoul’s 66 bus companies), report deficits primarily due to executive salaries and nepotism. He argues that these companies should be run efficiently, without government support, and that the current system is a “den of thieves” that drains national resources.

Political Funding and Mismanagement
Huh Kyung young extends his critique to political parties, highlighting the substantial government subsidies they receive. He points out that parties like the Saenuri Party received 38 billion won in 2014, despite having millions of members who could theoretically fund the party through dues. He argues that such subsidies are unnecessary and contribute to the waste of taxpayer money. He also criticizes the high annual expenses of National Assembly members and their aides, totaling over 1.3 trillion won, suggesting that they should serve without compensation, similar to practices in the United States where political parties operate with minimal overhead. He concludes that the country’s financial woes are not due to a lack of money, but rather an abundance of “thieves” in positions of power.

The Genesis of Centrism: A Synthesis of Economic Thought
Huh Kyung young introduces “Centrism” (Jung-san-ju-ui) as a novel economic ideology that transcends the limitations of traditional macroeconomics (government-controlled economy, e.g., Roosevelt’s New Deal) and microeconomics (market economy, e.g., neoliberalism). He argues that both systems have inherent flaws, leading to economic collapse and inequality. Centrism aims to combine the best aspects of both, creating an economic system where consumers are sovereign, not sellers or conglomerates. This approach seeks to ensure that all people, including consumers, benefit from economic activity, rather than wealth being concentrated in the hands of a few. He also advocates for a “New Deal” policy that benefits agriculture and stimulates the market, but with a focus on creating a middle class for all humanity.

The Flaws of the Real-Name Financial System
Huh Kyung young criticizes Korea’s real-name financial system, arguing that it has contributed to economic ruin. He contrasts it with Japan, which lacks such a system, allowing individuals to keep their wealth private. In Korea, the transparency of financial assets means that children often become aware of their parents’ wealth, leading to a lack of motivation to work and potential family disputes. This system also encourages capital flight to countries with less stringent financial regulations, such as Hong Kong, Switzerland, Japan, and the United States, resulting in significant economic losses for Korea. He attributes the establishment of this system to President Kim Young-sam, arguing it prioritized “cause” over practical economic well-being.

Reevaluating Historical Economic Policies: Park Chung-hee’s Pragmatism
Huh Kyung young praises President Park Chung-hee’s pragmatic economic policies, particularly his decision to accept 800 million dollars in aid from Japan despite widespread national criticism. While other Asian countries that received similar aid squandered it on political projects, Park Chung-hee invested it strategically in infrastructure and industrial development, such as the Pohang Iron and Steel Company and highways. This pragmatic approach, prioritizing economic growth over nationalistic sentiment, transformed Korea from one of the poorest nations (with a GNP of $68) into a global economic power, while other recipient nations remained stagnant. He contrasts this with North Korea, which, despite being wealthier than South Korea in the past, became impoverished due to its self-sufficient ideology.

The Decline of the Economy Under Democratic Governments
Huh Kyung young asserts that the Korean economy has been in decline since the advent of democratic governments, starting with Kim Young-sam, Kim Dae-jung, Roh Moo-hyun, Lee Myung-bak, and Park Geun-hye. He argues that these administrations, driven by “democratization forces,” have overseen a period of corruption and mismanagement that has left the economy beyond rescue. He criticizes the indirect election system, similar to the US electoral college, which he claims contributes to high election costs and a fragmented society. He metaphorically describes the outcome of democratization as a “bean powder family,” signifying a disintegrated society.

Quantitative Easing and Austerity: A Comparative Analysis
Huh Kyung young advocates for quantitative easing, similar to policies adopted by Japan and the United States, to stimulate the Korean economy. He notes that US quantitative easing does not cause inflation because the printed dollars are absorbed globally. In contrast, Korea’s adherence to austerity measures is detrimental, leading to a stagnant market. He argues that a “key economy” (referring to Keynesian principles) should involve distributing money to the people from above, rather than restricting spending. He expresses frustration with the current economic policies, which he believes are harming the populace.

The “Black Cat, White Cat” Philosophy and China’s Economic Rise
Huh Kyung young claims to have influenced China’s economic development through his “black cat, white cat” philosophy, which he shared with Deng Xiaoping. This philosophy, which he developed at a young age, advocates for temporarily setting aside ideological differences (communism vs. capitalism, or “black cat” vs. “white cat”) to focus on industrialization and economic growth. He recounts advising Chinese leaders to adopt pragmatism, allowing farmers to sell their produce in the market rather than having the state collect it. He asserts that this approach, inspired by Hayek’s pragmatism, was instrumental in China’s economic rise. He criticizes Korean politicians for lacking this understanding of global economic trends.

The Problem of Unlimited Individual Wealth and Centrism’s Solution
Huh Kyung young argues against unlimited personal wealth, proposing that there should be an upper limit on individual assets. Any amount exceeding this limit should be collected as taxes by the state. He uses the example of Hanmi Pharmaceutical’s chairman, whose wealth increased by trillions of won due to stock price surges, to illustrate how individuals accumulate vast fortunes while the common people struggle. He believes that such excessive wealth should be redistributed to benefit all citizens, for instance, by paying off household debts. He views unchecked capitalism as an ideology that will ruin the country, leading to extreme wealth disparity and societal conflict. Centrism, in his view, offers a more balanced approach that ensures wealth is managed for the collective good.

The “Constant” vs. “Coefficient” in Economics
Huh Kyung young distinguishes his economic philosophy by contrasting “constants” with the “coefficients” used by conventional economists. He argues that while economists calculate 1+1=2, his approach recognizes that 1+1=1 in terms of national contribution. He believes that individuals who contribute significantly to the country should be recognized, but the majority of their excess wealth should be returned to the state for public welfare. This ensures that while individuals can live comfortably, their wealth does not disproportionately increase, preventing the concentration of 90% of the world’s money in the hands of 5% of the population, which he views as a form of “slavery to capital.” His “constant” approach aims to create a more equitable distribution of wealth.

The Five Elements and Zhongshan Economy
Huh Kyung young connects his economic philosophy to the ancient concept of the Five Elements (wood, fire, water, gold, earth) and the fundamental numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) from the Cheonbugyeong. He posits that these fundamental principles govern the universe and, by extension, economic systems. He argues that the “Zhongshan economy” (Centrism) is rooted in these fundamental numbers, which represent a holistic approach to managing national and international economic relations. He criticizes conventional economists for being obsessed with “imaginary numbers” (like 6, 7, 8), which he believes are detached from these fundamental truths.

Waste in Public Spending and National Assembly Privileges
Huh Kyung young reiterates his concerns about government waste, citing the example of Seoul’s bus companies, which, despite having 7,485 buses and 15,000 drivers, are riddled with corruption in hiring and management. He also highlights the excessive privileges of National Assembly members, who collectively receive 854.4 billion won annually. He calls for a drastic reduction in these privileges and a thorough cleanup of the national budget, which he claims is leaking to all public enterprises and government-supported organizations.

Reconsidering the “Comfort Women” Issue and National Pride
Huh Kyung young offers a controversial perspective on the “comfort women” issue, arguing that President Park Chung-hee had comprehensively resolved it by accepting 800 million dollars from Japan. He believes that continuously raising the issue, particularly in front of the Japanese Embassy, is problematic and embarrassing for Korea. He asserts that the grandmothers who were victims would have preferred to die rather than be publicly paraded, and that the ongoing demands for further resolution undermine national pride and the spirit of the Korean people, who he describes as a “people descended from heaven” with unique scriptures. He criticizes those who continue to demand more, portraying them as ungrateful and damaging to Korea’s international image.

The Stages of Economic Development: Labor, Technology, Etiquette, Manners, and Indoor Living
Huh Kyung young outlines a five-stage model of economic development based on per capita income:
$10,000: Requires manpower/labor .
$20,000: Requires technology .
$30,000: Requires etiquette .
$40,000: Requires manners .
$50,000: Requires indoor living (implying a high standard of living) .

He notes that Japan, at $50,000, has already passed the etiquette stage, while Korea still has a long way to go. He criticizes Korean civil servants and politicians for prioritizing budget spending over savings, leading to wasteful practices and hindering the nation’s progress through these stages.

The Perils of Austerity and the Need for Quantitative Easing
Huh Kyung young reiterates his strong opposition to Korea’s austerity policies, especially when Japan and the US are implementing quantitative easing. He argues that austerity is causing a decline in exports (down 17% under the Park Geun-hye administration) and hindering economic growth. He believes that Korea should also lower the value of its currency and expand exports, and criticizes current leaders for not seeking his advice, implying their reliance on mere “calculators” rather than a deeper understanding of economic principles.

The Scale of National Debt and Misallocated Funds
Huh Kyung young details the alarming scale of Korea’s national debt:
Household debt: 1,300 trillion won
Local government debt: 100 trillion won
Private sector debt: 300 trillion won
Total national debt (including defense budget): 6,700 trillion won (equivalent to $6.7 trillion), which is 8 times the GDP .

He contrasts this with the Ministry of National Defense’s budget (37 trillion won, 10% of the national budget) and the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism’s budget (35 trillion won), arguing that funds are misallocated. He criticizes the government for failing to fully fund essential programs like the Nuri course for children, despite the nation’s low birth rate.

Proposals for Wealth Redistribution and Criminal Justice Reform
Huh Kyung young proposes several radical policies for wealth redistribution and criminal justice reform:
Childbirth incentives: Retroactively provide 30 million won for each child born in the past 10 years, ensuring that families with multiple children receive substantial support .
Conglomerate taxation: Eliminate tax cuts for conglomerates (currently 200 trillion won annually) and impose substantial fines on economic criminals, confiscating their property if fines are not paid. He argues that this would generate another 100 trillion won annually and prevent the accumulation of excessive wealth by conglomerates .
Prison reform: Criticizes the current prison system for economic criminals, which he likens to a “world’s best hotel,” where they can comfortably write books and receive special treatment. He advocates for a system where economic criminals are primarily fined, with property confiscation for non-payment, rather than incarceration .

Addressing Unresolved Issues: Conscripted Workers and Small Businesses
Huh Kyung young addresses the issue of compensation for conscripted workers and comfort women, stating that President Park Chung-hee could not fully compensate them in the past. He proposes providing substantial compensation (tens of billions of won per person) to all conscripted workers and comfort women, including the deceased, to fully address their grievances. He also touches upon the issue of small businesses and their development, suggesting that his centrism, through its tax system, will resolve issues of excessive individual income by collecting it as taxes, thereby ensuring a more equitable distribution of wealth and preventing the kind of corruption seen in past administrations.

지금 세계 경제는 에 이 케인스의 거시경제 이걸 하다가 다시 미시경제를 하다가 그러다가 지금 뭐가 왔습니까? 이게 하다가 뭐가 왔죠 이 경제를 하다가 다시 또 뭐가 왔습니까? 우리가 우리 IMF 왔죠 IMF오니까 다시 일로 또 돌아가 또 일로 돌아갔다가 요새는 뭘로 돌아와 있어요. 다시 이게 몇 번 뒤집어 엎다가 지금은 이걸로 와 있어요. 시장경제 오늘은 우리 경제와 세계 경제 흐름에 대해서 대충 이야기를 하겠습니다.

지금 우리가 경제가 심각하니까 이거는 뭡니까? 에 물가는 내려가고 돈 가치는 올라가는 거예요. 물가는 내려오고 돈 가치는 올라가는 건데 이거는 뭡니까?

인플레이션은 물가는 올라가고 돈 가치는 떨어지고 그러면 어 이거는 뭐죠 응 물가는 올라가고 그다음에 뭡니까? 물가는 올라가고 이거는 뭐예요? 물가는 올라가고 그러면 요 물가는 올라가는데 이거하고 이게 차이가 뭐예요?

이실장 딴 다른 컵은 없나? 지금 현재까지는 우리나라가 관치 경제를 많이 했고 그래서 나중에 IMF 가 왔어요.

전 세계가 케인스의 경제 이론을 했는데 세계 경제가 지금 위기에 직면해서 우리나라 경제도 위기야 세계 경제를 여러분이 딱 알게끔 진단해 줘야 되는데 경제학자들은 이걸 뭐 복잡하게 진단을 해서 여러분들이 헷갈리는 거예요. 그래서 지금 오늘 내가 이야기하는 것은 요거는 앞으로 이게 2015년까지 요런 경제가 왔어요. 그런데 내가 내다보는 거지 앞으로는 요렇게 가는 거야. 경제가 자 봅시다 물가 올라가겠죠. 돈 가치는 떨어져 그다음에 요 스태그플레이션 물가 올라가죠 경기는 내려오죠 알겠죠. 애그플레이션 은 뭐야?

물가는 올라가고 농산물 가격 올라가고 경기는 내려오고 자 잘 봐요. 내가 뭘 이야기하려고 하냐면 일본이 일본의 수상이 이 거시경제를 해서 재미를 봤어. 최근에 몇 년 전부터 뭘 재미를 봤냐 보세요. 인플레이션을 만들어내는데 성공한 거야. 자 물가는 올라가고 돈 가치는 떨어지게 한 거예요. 이 인플레이션을 왜 만들었을까요? 일본 수상이 왜 관치경제를 했을까? 이 엔화의 가치를 내림으로써 수출을 많이 할려구 그 사람이 성공했어 안 했어요. 성공했어요. 근데 우리는 뭐 했어요.

우리의 정치인들은 이거 하고 있어 이거. 이거 이게 뭡니까? 시장경제에다가 은근히 이 IMF를 딱 다운하더니, 겁이 나니까 시장경제 위주로 맡긴 거야. 그래서 대통령이 과감하게 인플레이션 그냥 일본 수상이 은행에다 지시해서 돈을 찍어라 몇천조를 찍어라 그래서 그걸 없는 사람한테 쫙 나놔줘라 그냥 그래서 안 그랬어요. 일본 경제로 확 돌아갔어 안 돌아가서 돌아가면서 돈 가치가 팍 떨어지니까. 수출이 잘 돼 안 돼 잘 되는 거예요. 그러면 경제는 누가 하는 거야. 천재들이 하는 거야. 맞아 안 맞아요. 경제학자들은 못하는 거야. 맞습니까? 안 맞습니까?

지원하는 돈 3200억 이야 그러면 서울시장이 요걸 놓놔줘요 버스회사 사장들한테 딱딱 놓놔줘 적자 봤다는 만큼 그러면 이거 1년에 12번 감사하게 돼 있는데, 11년에 한 번 정도 감사를 해 그것도 감사를 누가 하냐? 버스 회사가 뽑아난 추천한 감사 회계사가 감사를 해 그러면 도둑놈은 누구예요? 이 3200억을 66개 회사가 노놔 가져요 매년 이거 공정하게 분배된다고 봅니까 상상도 하지 마세요. 정확하게 여기에 사장을 어떤 사람을 데려오겠습니까? 여기에 권력 잡은 자에 가까운 사람을 앉혀야 이 돈을 많이 가져오는 거야. 맞아 안 맞아요.

보통 연봉이 5억5000이야 버스 회사 사장이 지금 현재 서울 시내 버스 회사 회사 사장이 최저 임금이 5억 5000입니다. 연봉이 그런데 버스 운전 기사가 연봉 잘 보세요. 버스 운전 기사 지금 만 5000명이 있거든. 서울 시내에 왜냐하면, 서울 시내 버스가 8000대니까 운전수가 약 두 배 아니에요. 8000 되니까. 운전사가 만 5000명이 있어 이 사람들 평균 임금이 얼마냐 연봉이 4000만 원이야 알겠습니까? 그러면 이 사람들은 운전하고 4000만 원 받는데 월 350이야 그런데 버스 회장 사장은 5억 5000이야 5억 5000한달에 5000만 원이에요.

월급이 국회의원의 10배야 사람 뭐하는 사람이냐 다 정부하고 관계있는 자들이 앉아서 3200억을 어떻게 많이 가져오느냐 로비리스트야 나는 버스 회사 사장들한테 맞아 죽게 생겼네 저거는 가짜가 아닙니다. 내가 버스 회사에 고소를 당하는 한이 있어도 거짓말 아니에요. 이거 내 거짓말하면 어떻게 돼요. 그래 안 그래 자 그러니까 버스 회사 한 군데 보통 임원이 4 명이에요. 잘 들으세요. 임원 평균 임금이 5억이야 그래 버스회사 평균 임금이 20억이에요. 임원 임금만 한 달에 1년에 1년에 20억인데 버스 회사가 평균 적자가 1년에 60억이야 그래 이거를 국가가 보상해 줘요 그러니까 육육 이 36 맞죠.

3200억이 똑같이 놓놔져 맞아 안 맞아요. 그런데 좀 많이 주는 데 이거 적게 주는 데 있겠죠. 그런데 여기에서 임원들 임금만 빼면 적자가 아니야. 임원들 임금을 왜 버스 회사 운전사보다 많이 열 몇 배를 몇십 배를 받아 가냐 이 말이에요. 내가 그거 물어보려고 하는 거예요. 여러분한테 맞아 안 맞아요. 그러면 버스 회사가 왜 적자냐 임원들 월급 때문에 적자야 그런데 임원은 전부 자기 가족이야 사장에 가족들 앉혀놨어 한 사람은 지 조카고 한 사람은 지 삼촌이고 이래 그리고 월 350만 원 받는 운전기사를 채용하는데 이거 안 주는 사람은 채용해 안 해 아니에요. 말도 하지 마세요.

부조리가 들어가는데 억대를 줘야 들어가 그럼 뭐 하는 일이여 와 참말로 썩어도 그러니 대한민국의 부채가 이렇게 늘어나 안 늘어나 세상에 버스 회사 사장이 뭐하는 사람인데 무슨 로비를 하고 다니길래 월급이 5억이 넘어요. 그래 놓고 국가 예산 3200억 있다우로 쓰면서 예산이 없어 나는 버스회사는 지금 공영도 아니야. 이거 맞아 안 맞아요. 민영 반공영이야 반공영이라고 그래 적자 나는 회사는 과감하게 치워버리고 버스 회사 정상 가동하고 국가 지원 없애야 돼 맞습니까? 안 맞습니까? 서울시에서 이 돈을 배정하는 공무원이 있어 여러분 이해 갑니까? 믿음이 갑니까? 사람 정상적으로 배정할까요?

상상도 하지 마세요. 말 한마디 잘못하면 쥐도 새도 모르게 가는 거예요. 몇천억이 왔다 갔다 하기 때문에 허경영이 하나 없애는 건 아무것도 아니야. 내 아니면 안 돼요. 그리고 버스 요금을 인상하는데 인상하는데 한 번도 국민들한테 의견을 물어보지 않아 시민들한테 누가 쥐어짜느냐 저거끼리 쑥딱쑥닥 가지고 올려버려 버스요금 인상에 올려버려. 이런 버스 운영하는 거 하나만 딱 봐도 빵점이야 빵점 이런 데다가 잘 봐요. 장 한나라당이 아니 새누리당이지 새누리당이 지난 작년 2014년 한 해에 국가에 지원받은 당에서 지원받은 돈이 얼마일까?

2014년에 380억 잘 들으세요. 나는 이 미친 나라가 아닌가 싶어 이 사람들은 380억 안 줘도 자기들 후 당원들한테 당비 걷어다가 당 운영해야 돼 맞아 안 맞아요. 그러면서 국가에다 당원은 200만 명이래 한 사람한테 만 원씩만 받아도 200억이야 말 같지 않은 소리 좀 하지 말아요. 사기치지 마라 그래 그게 무슨 당이야 국가에서 1년에 380억 자 새 정치 360억 이게 말이 돼요. 그리고 통합민주당 61억 통합민주당 없어진 당 있잖아요. 61억 이거 총선 직전에 끌고 간 거 아시죠. 또 무슨 당이 있었어요.

정의당 30억 아니 이거 왜 줍니까 그래서 딱 정확하게 얼마냐 803억이야 에 아니 이게 뭐 하는 짓입니까? 803억 3200억 아니 내가요 이런 걸 계산하니까 국가 나가는 세금의 70%가 가짜야 내가 대통령 되고 나서 내보고 당신 말이야. 뭔데 결혼하면 3억을 무슨 돈으로 주냐 애 낳으면 3000천만원 택도 없는 소리 하지 마라 국가의 예산에서 잘못 나가는 돈 다 끊어버리면 주고도 남아 안 남아요. 이거 요런 것이 작은것 몇 개냐면 몇 만 가지가 돼 몇 만 가지가 요것만 주는 게 아닙니다. 시민단체 정부말 잘 듣는 단체들 돈 줘 안 줘 나는 입에서 말이 안 나와 시민단체가 국가에 지원받는 단체가 그게 시민단체예요.

그게 국가를 견제하는 단체야 아휴 내가 아이 그냥 눈에서 피눈물이 나요. 내가 이런 거 내가 이런 걸 내가 물론 밤 한 시 두 시까지 글을 쓰고 내가 밤에 여러분처럼 잠도 못 자지만은 엄청난 밤에 내가 글 책을 한 열 몇 권을 써 눈이 충혈되고 난리야 그런데 이런 걸 보면 눈에서 피눈물이 나 이런 거 보면 여러분이 빚지고 있는 걸 생각하니까 그래 맞아 안 맞아요. 이거 가지고 이런 눈먼 돈 이거 나눠주는 사람 배정하는 사람 누구야 한패 한 패 여러분 이런 눈먼 돈 정당에다가 1년에 800억을 줘요 그런데다가 국회의원이 일 년에 총 가져온 돈이 8000 약 9000억이야 국회의원 300명이 일 년 동안 가져가는 게 보좌관까지 총 가져가는 게 9000억입니다.

지자체가 1년에 총 가져가는 월급 지자체 요인들을 가져가 1조 3000억이에요. 어 한번 생각해 봅시다 아니 이거 왜 이런 거 돈 줘야 돼 이런 거는 돈 안 주고 무보수를 하라 그래 맞아 안 맞습니까? 맞아요. 안 맞아요. 그러면 국회의원 한테서 1년에 1조 정도 남죠 그래 안 그래 1조 정도를 왜 낭비해 1조를 이렇게 낭비해도 됩니까? 이 사람들은 후원금 받아 안 받아 1년에 후원금 지 기술것 몇 억씩 다 받아요. 그러면 사람들한테 월급 해 줍니까 이거 그럼 후원금받아다가 보좌관 월급 주라고 그래 맞아 안 맞아요. 외국의 자 아 미국에 정당 지원금이 있습니까? 없습니까? 없어요. 미국은 공화당 민주당 당사 있습니까? 없습니까? 없어요. 컴퓨터 한 대와 여직원 하나 있어요.

그것도 일부 딴 사무실에 가서 빌붙어 있어요. 당사가 없습니다. 선거 때만 후보들이 각자 개인 사무실은 선거 때만 임시로 가지고 있어요. 맞아 안 맞아요. 나는 우리나라 사람들 보면 정말 국가 예산 짠 놈은 전부 나중에 사형이야 사형 수많은 사람이 받아 가야 될 국민의 돈을 다 난도질 해먹어 처먹은 거야. 그래가 배 터졌어 배 터졌어 그래서 목숨 걸고 공무원 들어가려고 그러고 목숨 걸고 정치하려고 하는가 봐 도둑놈들 나라에 돈이 없는 게 아니라 도둑놈이 많다는 내 소리를 성남시장이 떠들고 다녀 허경영 그 사람 말이 딱 들어맞다고 야 봐서 안 봤어요.

내가 뭐 국회의원 100명 줄이라고 한 지가 25년 됐는데 안철수가 100명을 따라 했지 내가 한걸 안철수 걸 내가 따라 했대 얼마나 웃겨 그러니까 사람들 공부 좀 해야 돼 황태순 씨가 나를 좋게 보건 좋은데 내가 국회의원을 100명 하자고 무보수을 하자고 한 지가 30년 됐어요. 예 근데 뭐 안철수가 나를 모방했지 내가 안철수를 모방하나 허경영 공약은 여러분들이 노인 수당 20만 원 받는 거 허경영이거 그거 맞아 안 맞아요. 그럼 내가 70만 원 주자고 그랬더니, 요걸 싹 바꿔서 그렇게 준 거예요. 그래서 우리나라는 국가 예산을 저따위로 운영하면서 경제는 항상 일본에 뒷북을 쳐 그래서 우리도 일본을 앞질러 갈 수가 있어 없습니까? 그래서 허경영이가 대통령이 됐을 때는 이 모든 우리나라 예산을 눈금 보듯이 보고 앉아 있어요.

요걸 뭘 속이는가 요건 뭐하는가? 아주 눈에 피가 나도록 나는 지켜봐요.

저렇게 자세하게 말씀하셨는데 방송에서 이렇게 예산에 대해서 뒷거리가 없어

어 와 나 그놈들 보면

머리가 안 돌아가는데

응 아니 내가 맨날 돈이 어디서 나온다고 떠들어요. 내가 어디서 나온다 지하자금 900조를 어떻게 해소한다. 그래서 예산을 댄다 이러는데 아니 이 사람들은 허경영이는 공약만 해놓고, 예산말이 없다는 거야. 이런

어 얼마나 뻔뻔한지 몰라 그러다가 나중에 내한테 어떻게 되려고 그럴까 전부 부관참시입니다. 묫 자리까지 다 파헤쳐요 나중에 보세요. 거짓말인가 절대 나는 일반 사람이 아니고 내가 와서 일을 하는 데는 우리나라를 바로잡아야 세계가 바로 돼 허경영의 중산경제는 이런 케인스의 거시경제 이거 관치경제입니다. 루즈벨트가 많이 했죠. 루즈벨트가 관치경제 한 거 뭐예요? 뉴딜 정책 이거 했어요. 그러면 이것도 필요하고 이것도 필요하고 섞어야 되는데 우리는 정치를 경제를 이걸로 전 세계화했어. 전 세계가 하다 가다가 안 되니까. 요게 왜 무너졌죠 요게 왜 무너져 이 사람을 전부 모방해서 전 세계 대통령들이 케인즈를 따라 하다가 왜 케인즈가 사라지고 요게 나타났죠. 마지막에 요새 이걸로 돌았었죠.

왜 그렇죠. 아는 사람 소련이 붕괴되면서 경제 소련이 붕괴되니까. 이 사람은 공산주의 이 케인스는 공산주의자예요. 칼막스하고 비슷한 사람이에요. 케인스는 영국 사람인데 칼 막스처럼 공산주의 경제 체제 관치 경제 여기에 대해서 굉장히 해박한 사람인데 세계의 우두머리예요. 두 학파가 있는데, 케인스학파와 하이에크학파 이 사람들이 아담 스미스의 국부론 이 국부론과 이 국부론과 막스 베버의 자본주의 막스 베버의 자본주의 이 자본주의에서 이 케인스로 내려와요.

두 거두가 생기지 하이에크와 케인스라는데 이 케인스가 내놓은 경제 체제가 소련이 붕괴함으로써 소련이 공산주의자니까 소련이 붕괴함으로써 전 소련이나 전 세계가 이걸 따라 하다가 소련이 딱 붕괴되니까. 케인스가 이 이론이 맞지 않다 이래 된 거야. 문제가 맞지 않으니까 하이에크의 이 미시경제 쪽으로 시장경제 이걸 저걸 신자유주의 경제라고 그래요. 알겠죠. 신자유주의 경제 쪽으로 이 시장 경제 쪽으로 돌아섰어 돌아섰는데 지금 이렇게 돌아섰다고 되냐 중산 경제는 허경영이 하는 중산주의는 뭡니까? 중산주의 경제는 요 경제와 요 경제를 섞은 거예요. 알겠죠. 그중에서 좋은 것만 하는 거예요. 알겠습니까?

그러니까 이 사람이 하는 공산 거시경제도 아니고 관치경제도 아니고 완전한 시장경제도 아니야. 완전히 중산주의 그러니까 소비자를 왕으로 하는 경제 체제야 알겠습니까? 판매자를 왕으로 하는 게 아니고 여러분들 국민 소비자를 왕으로 하는 경제 체제가 중산경제야 알겠습니까? 소비자들이 전부 다 잘 살게 돼 알겠죠. 사업하는 사람 그 사람이 그만큼 돈을 벌면 소비자도 그만한 혜택을 보게 지금은 안 그래 우리는 사업하는 사람이 다 가져가 버려 국민은 전부 빈털털이야 알겠죠. 그래서 나도 뉴딜 정책을 해요. 알죠 농업 뉴딜 합니까? 안 합니까? 나도 농업 뉴딜도 하고 시장경제도 활성화해 그러니까 나는 이 중산주의는 이 사람들 이거는 재벌만 먹여 살려 요것들은 둘 다 근데 이거는 중산은 뭐예요?

모든 국민을 인류를 중산층을 만들겠다. 알겠습니까? 자 양적 완화 양고문님 요게 양적 완화야 요거 요거 칸트대요 이거 영어로 양적 완화 적어놔요. 버스 회사들이 적자보고서를 만들어서 정부에서 3200억을 가져가는데 이거요 엄청난 비리가 있어 그렇지만 내가 대통령 되고 나서 내나 밝히지 아무도 저 돈이 원체 크니까 거기 앉아 있는 사장들이 파워가 있는 사람들이에요. 알겠죠. 그러니까 지금 내가 이런 이야기를 했다고 또 난리가 날 거야.

아마 허경영 저 사람은 버스 회사하고 뭐 잘못됐나 그러겠지

저거는 뭡니까?

이거 이거 미르게이션 응 미르게이션

어 미르게이션 완화

뭐 하나

예 양적완화 미르게이션

이게 퀀티테이브
이거

예 거기는

퀀티테이블 미르게이션 퀀티테이브 미르게이션 저게 양적 완화야 내가 양적 완화 화폐를 찍어서 국민의 부채를 일단 다 상환해 버리면 빚을 없어지잖아. 싹 빚을 없앤 다음에 그 사람들이 빚을 없어져서 이자를 안 내는 거와 물가에서 어느 게 손해가 나겠어요. 어느 게 이익이겠어요. 물가가 약간 오르더라도 이자 안 내는 게 이익이야 10배가 더 이익이에요. 알겠죠. 마음이 편치 마음이 편치 자 요거 양고문님 요거 요거 잘못 적었다 요 맨 밑에 거 양고문님 물가는 올라가고 농산물을 올라가고 돈의 가치는 떨어지는 거야.

애그플레이션 스태그플레이션은 물가 오르고 경기는 내려가고 인플레이션은 물가는 오르고 돈 가치는 내려가고 알겠죠. 돈 가치가 좀 내려가는 게 그리 중요한 게 아니야. 서민들은 돈을 쓸 게 없는데 돈 가치 내려가고 올라가면 무슨 상관이 있어 빚이 없어야 마음이 편치. 그래서 이거를 내가 현재 우리나라가 아낄 수 있는 돈이 약 250조 낭비되는 돈 1년 동안 국가 예산에서 낭비되는 돈이 250조예요. 적습니까? 엄청난 거예요. 적어도 찾아내 가지고 여러분한테 돌려줘 자 1년에 250조 돌려주지 1500조 찍어서 돌려주지 한 2000조가 나가는 거예요.

여러분한테 그러면 우리나라 빚 있는 사람이 없으니까 그럼 누가 빚이 있습니까? 빚 있는 사람 누구죠 사업자 큰 사업자 중소기업 요런 사람들 빚이 있어 알겠죠. 개인들이 막 개인사업자들은 모든 부채가 제로가 돼. 그러니까 내가 대통령 되면은 이 교육감 이야기도 이제 끝이야 교육감을 지금은 교육감을 여러분들이 교육감을 누가 뽑아요. 교육감 잘 들으세요. 교육감 농협조합장 이런 거 말입니다. 선거제도 없앱니다. 나라 망해요.

문교부 장관의 말이 탁탁 돌아가야 되는데 그 중간에 교육감이 있어 가지고 에 또 지자체 단체장 없어집니다. 단체장 선거제도 없어져요 이런 거 다 선거제도 없어집니다. 그다음에 이건 누가 뽑아요. 임명제입니다. 임명직이에요. 이건 나라 망해요. 일본이 지금 저렇게 승승장구하는 건 IMF 일본이 금융식 실명제 있습니까? 없습니까? 없어요. 일본이 금융실명제 없어요. 그럼 우리는 금융실명제 때문에 우리 경제 망했어요. 또 부동산 실명제 없어요. 우리는 부동산 실명제 때문에 망해요. 아버지가 은행에 돈을 100억을 넣어놨다 일본은 이거 있는지 아버지 아들이 알아 몰라요. 아들이 몰라요.

한국은 100억 넣어 놓으면 아들이 알아 몰라요. 금융실명제야 아들이 알아요. 아버지 죽을 날짜만 기다리는 거야. 일 안 해 그런데 일본은 아버지가 돈이 있어도 아들이 자수성가하기 위해서 돈을 노출 안 시켜 어데 딱 넣어버려 딴 사람 이름으로 친구 이름으로 이러면 모르는 거야. 그러니까 아버지가 돈이 없는 줄 알아 그러니까 열심히 일하는 거예요. 우리나라는 아버지가 돈을 딱 예금하면 노출이 돼 은행에서 뭐가 와 확인하는 문서가 오는 거야. 그러면 아들이 다 알아요. 그러면 어떻게든 저 아버지를 죽여 없앨까 아버지가 언제쯤 돌아가지 않으실까 이런 거 연구하죠. 절대 일할 생각 안 합니다. 이런 사람 많아요. 그래서 이 돈이 노출되는 거는 이 사람은 100억을 모아놨다가 뭔가 좀 재단에 기부도 하고 또 뭔가 새로 또 사업을 시작하려고 하고 그렇죠.

이 좋은 일을 하는데 또 기부도 하고 이렇게 할려고 하는데 이걸 아들이 다 알아버려 봐 자식이 다 알아버려 봐요. 철천지 원수가 돼 버려 아버지 통장에 있던 백억을 그냥 몽땅 그렇게 기부를 해 버립니까 이런단 말이에요. 그런데 옛날에는 우리나라 금융실명제 안 할 때는 이거 할 수 있어요 없어요. 할 수 있었으나 지금은 못해 그래서 자식들이 다 아버지의 금융 상태를 알고 있어 가족이 다 알아 그러니까 이게 집안이 여러 가지 문제가 있어요. 그래서 우리는 홍콩이나 스위스나 일본 같은 미국 같은 금융실명제 하지 않는 나라에다 돈을 갖다가 숨기는 거야. 그래서 스위스는 돈이 엄청 들어와 전 세계에서 검은 돈이 홍콩도 그래 그럼 우리나라도 돈이 우리나라는 돈이 빠져 나가기만 하는 거야.

금융 실명제 때문에 그걸 어디로 가냐 홍콩 스위스 일본 미국 이런 나라로 가는 거지 그러니까 우리나라는 우리나라는 뭐를 중요시 하느냐 명분만 중요시하고 경제를 실리에서는 손해를 본 거야. 맞아 안 맞아요. 아니 명분만 세우는 건 누가 세웠어 김영삼이가 김영삼대통령이 명분만 그런데 김영삼대통령 여러분 저번에 재평가를 하느니 그래 샀는데 우리나라 경제는 금융 실명제 때문에 망했어요. 중앙청 헐어 내는 것 때문에 망했어요. 풍수적으로 그러면 조선왕조를 없애지 말지 그러면 그렇게 중앙청이 헐어내는 게 그렇게 궁전이 고궁이 중요하면 그 건물을 활용해야 돼요. 기와집 몇 개 그렇게 중요합니까? 명분을 중요하면 실리도 중요한 거예요.

응 박정희 대통령이 명분보다는 실리다 우리가 일본에 역사를 끝내고 느그하고 나하고 철천지 원수 이승만이는 철천지 원수 일본 돈 안 받는다. 그래 안 받았어요. 근데 박정희 대통령은 가만 보니까 돈이 없네 경제 발전할려니까 일본이 우리한테 괴롭힌 게 있네 받아내자 맞아 안 맞아요. 가서 협상해서 얼마 받아요. 8억 불이 당시의 돈이 이게 적은 돈입니까? 엄청난 돈이야 이거를 담판에 그냥 받아내서 6억 불은 전쟁 피해 2억 불은 차관 장기차관 이거 가지고 우리 경제가 살아난 거예요.

그런데 필리핀하고 그리고 태국하고 미얀마 월남 이런 사람들은 이거 다 받아서 이거 받아서 대통령 전용 별장 골프장 대통령 전용 수영장 그다음에 정부 조합 청사 전부 권력 잡은자들이 정치 자금으로 다 닦아 써 버렸어요. 그러니까 요때 잘 들으세요. 박정희 대통령을 왜 여러분이 기억해야 되냐 하면 8억 불을 받아가 박정희 대통령이 막 정치자금으로 썼다면 우리는 한 일회담을 비난할 수 있어요. 전 국민이 비난하는데 박정희 대통령이 그걸 해야 우리가 살아 박정희 대통령의 비서실장도 각하 안 하는 게 좋지 않겠어요.

전부 반대 하는데 왜 각하 혼자 날립니까 그거 해야 돼 그거 해야 우리 경제가 살아 딱 가져와가지고 요걸 가져와서 정확하게 포항제철 고속도로인데 정확하게 다 써서도 이때 개인적으로 정부에 대통령이나 관료들이 아니 우리 청사 하나 지읍시다 우리 재무부 청사 하나 지읍시다 우리는 뭐가 필요합니다. 야 너거 그런 거 전부 하지 말아 이 돈이 부서지면 아무 힘을 못 써 우리는 지금 밥을 굶고 컨테이너 속에 가서 행정 업무를 보더라도 그런 건물을 짓지 말고 요 돈을 가지고 공장을 지어서 우리 후손들에게 이걸 남겨야지 그러려고 우리가 일본에서 굴욕적인 돈을 받아오냐 거 가서 고개 숙이고 8억 불을 받아오는 건 구걸한 거나 마찬가지인데 내가 고개 숙이고 받아온 돈을 그따위 데다 쓰면 되겠냐 그래서 하나도 나쁜 데 안 쓰고 고스란히 경제 발전에 투입해요. 그래야 우리나라가 그때 경제가 몇 불이에요.

68 불이야 지엔피가 그런데 제일 잘 사는 나라가 당시 태국이 얼마예요. 북한이 170 불이야 우리보다 두 배로 잘 살아 필리핀 태국 전부 200 불이야 이렇게 잘 나가는 나라들이 우리 위에 쫙 있어서 우리가 제일 꼴찌했어. 아시아에서 그런데 박정희 대통령이 이걸 딱 받아가 다른 나라도 다 받았는데 이 사람들은 지금도 여기에서 얼마 안 올라갔어요. 그런데 우리는 얼마예요. 2만 8000 불이야 어 그러니까 우리는 많이 올라갔어 안올라 갔. 우리는 몇 백배가 올라갔는데 이 사람들은 돈을 닦아 써버린 거야. 경제가 북한은 지금 얼마입니까?

팍 필리핀 태국 다 우리나라보다 뒤떨어져 버려요 그래서 박정희 대통령은 이 돈을 정말 잘 썼다 아주 청렴결백하게 돈을 써서 우리 경제를 살렸으나 다른 나라 태국이나 필리핀이나 미얀마나 월남이나 이 사람들은 그 돈 가지고 정치인들이 정치 자금으로 다 써 버렸어 그래 나라들이 지엔피가 우리나라 아시아에서 우리는 세계 7번째 우리는 세계 10대 경제 대국에 들어갔는데 걔네들은 100대 미만이야 전부 북한은 이때 170 불로 우리나라보다 두 배로 잘 살았고 우리가 여기서 전기를 가져와서 안 가져왔어요. 수풍수력발전소에서 우리가 전기를 가지고 썼잖아. 그러니까 우리나라는 얼마나 가난했어. 그렇죠. 그런데 이 우리 아시아에서 잘 살던 북한이 거지가 돼 버렸죠 가난해져 버렸잖아.

그러나 북한은 자급자족하는 나라니까 굳이 우리 경제하고 경제 체질이 좀 다르니까 그렇다 치고 하여튼 박정희 대통령이 뭘 했다고요. 명분입니까? 실리입니까? 실리 김영삼대통령 뭐 했다고요. 명분 명분은 허공이야 허공 그래서 우리 경제는 이때 김영삼대통령 때부터 내리막길로 가는 거예요. 큰 망조가 들어요. 그래서 민주화 세력들은 말이 민주화 세력이지 김영삼 김대중 대통령 되는데 매달린 게 민주화 세력이야 세계에서 미국도 지금 간접선거야. 528명 528명에 미국 선거인단이 있어 없어요.

이거를 미국의 통일 주체 대의원들이 뽑아 이게 통일 미국의 통일 주체 대의원이야 박정희 대통령이 통일주체 대의원 만들어서 안 만들었어요. 그래 거기서 대통령 뽑았어. 그랬으면 선거 비용 들어가 안 들어가 안 들어가고 우리 살기 좋아 안 좋아 우리 지금 10만 불 됐어요. 우리 민족이 그런데 콩가루 집안이 돼버린 거야. 민주화를 다른 말로 바꾸면 콩가루야 맞아 안 맞아요. 콩가루 집안 박수를 치려면 세게 치고 그래서 여러분들은 내가 이렇게 나와서 힘들게 이야기하지만 우리나라 경제는 부정부패로 문민화 정부 부채 민주화 정권이 들어서고 나서부터 김영삼 김대중 노무현 이명박 박근혜로 올라가면서 우리나라 경제는 내리막길로 이제 구제불능으로 들어갔다 안 들어갔다 들어갔어요. 들어갔습니다.

그래서 나는 대통령이 되면 뭐 한다고요. 여기는 여기까지는 2015년 그렇죠. 요거는 허경영이가 대통령이 된 다음부터는 이렇게 바뀐다고요. 허경영이가 대통령 되고 나서는 요런 식으로 바꿔서 1500조를 찍어내 찍어내서 이게 뭐라고요. 양적 완화 양적 완화를 해서 미국은 어마어마한 달러를 찍어 해외 부채가 있으면 달러 찍어 안 찍어요. 찍어서 막 돌려 그래도 미국 달러는 각 나라마다 어디 지하실로 들어가 버려 아무리 찍어도 미국 돈이 인플레가 안 생기네, 그러니까 미국 사람들은 아주 좋아요.

돈만 찍으면 돼 그래 사람들은요, 돈만 찍으면 먹고 살아 전 세계에서 서로가 좋아하는거야. 달러를 가면 지하실로 들어가 버려 그러니까 미국의 인플레가 생겨 안 생겨 안 생겨요 그러니까 미국 대통령이 은행을 미국의 중앙은행이 어디 소속이에요. 개인 소속이야 우리는 한국은행이 어디 소속이에요. 우리는 케인스처럼 국가에서 가지고 있어요. 우리 한국은행 그럼 미국은 민간인이 미국의 모든 돈을 찍어 맞아요. 응 맞아 안 맞아 안 맞아요. 미영준이 민간단체입니다. 우리 같이 한국은행이 아니에요. 그러니까 미국은 민간들이 돈을 찍어서 미국을 유지하고 있는 거죠. 그러니까 우리는 미국은 뭘로 살아간다고요.

양적 완화 일본 양적 완화 우리는 뭐 한다고요. 우리는 뭐 한다고요. 우리는 긴축경제 이거 나라 말아먹는 거예요. 그런데 말은 긴축경제 해놓고, 자기들은 무지하게 써재껴 버스회사에는 뭐 3000억 뭐 3200억 뭐 여기저기 써제끼는 돈이 연간 250조를 낭비하고 있어 알겠습니까? 그게 긴축입니까? 긴축 경제는 국민들한테 세리 허리를 조우게 해놓고 돈은 위에서는 다 닦아 쓰는 거예요. 맞습니까? 안 맞습니까? 정신들 차려야 돼요. 정신들 차려야 돼 사람들은 지금 내가 뭐 이야기하면 사람 나는 뭘 부정적으로 이야기는 안 봅니다.

다 좋게 보지 그러나 지금 우리 국민은 너무 억울해 도저히 용서할 수가 없어요. 지금 우리나라가 긴축 경제하고 또 거기다가 그러면 시장이 다 말라 죽어요. 그게 중국도 중국도 사실은 중국 경제가 왜 일어났죠. 이 선생님

에 중국 경제가 왜 일어났다고 봐요.

개방 누가 했죠.

흑묘 백묘잖아. 이 흑묘든 백묘든 에 이 무조건 고양이가 검으면 어떻고 희면 어떠냐 이거예요. 이거는 내가 내 난 아이디어를 중국이 쓴 거예요. 내가 이걸 내가 이런 아이디어를 냈어 응 도민양해 그런데 이거를 했는데 이 사람들이 이게 뭐냐면은 민주주의는 숨겨놓고 산업화를 기르자 이 말이거든. 내가 이거를 대통령한테 이야기했는데 이것을 흑묘백묘로 등샤오평이 따라한 거예요.

이게 내 새마을 만들 때 아이디어거든. 내가 21살 때 만든 아이디어야 그러니까 도민양해라고 민주주의는 숨길 도 자야 민주주의는 숨겨놓고 산업화를 길러야 된다. 그러니까 여기에 이거를 등샤오평은 요걸 나는 여기에 산을 넣었어요. 그런데 등샤오평은 여기다 해를 넣어 여기다 등샤오평은 해를 넣는다고 무슨 말인지 알죠 그러니까 우리는 민주주의를 숨기고 산업화를 기르자 이걸 대통령한테 내가 이야기했더니, 아니 등샤오평은 여기다가 등샤오평은 그대로 가져갔어 그대로 가져가서 뭐라고 썼냐면 요렇게 썼어 참 모방하는 데는 하여튼 도공양해 이해 가시죠.

그러니까 공산주의는 잠깐 숨겨놓고 응 공산주의는 잠깐 숨겨놓고 검은 놈들 걸 기르자 이 말이에요. 검은 놈들의 것이 자본주의를 말해 맞아 안 맞아요. 자기들은 흰 거지 흰 거라고 공산주의는 희다고 생각하는 거야. 이게 흑묘야 이게 해가 검을 해자니까 그러니까 검은 놈이라는 게 돈이야 그러니까 공산주의를 이거 그대로 표절했잖아. 봐요. 공산주의를 잠시 숨겨놓고 검은 물질을 걔들은 검다고 봐요. 이걸 수정주의라고 그래 걔네들은 수정주의라고 그래 걔네들은 수정주의 그러니까 등샤오평이가 1973년에 이 하이에크를 초청해 하이에크를 딱 초청해서 등샤오평이가 우리 중국 백성을 어떻게 먹여 살립니까 딱 그러니까 하이에크가 뭐라 했는지 알아요. 유명한 말이야. 뭐라 그랬어요. 기억 안 합니까?

여러분들은 등사오평이 1973년에 이 사람 하이에크를 독일에서 초청해서 초청해 가지고 중국 등샤오평이를 만났어요. 우리 중국 인민을 배불리 먹이려면 어떻게 해야 우리가 살 수 있습니까? 우리는 지금 살 수가 없습니다. 딱 그러니까 등샤오평이 보고 이 하이에크가 실용주의를 주장해요. 하이에크가 뭐라고 그러냐 지금부터 농민들 농사짓는 거두지 말고 시장으로 내놔서 자기들이 팔아먹게 해라 이런 거야. 시장주의를 시장 자유시장주의를 주장해요. 딱 그러니까 등샤오평이가 지시를 해 모든 농민은 농사니까 너그 마음대로 팔아라 그리고 시장을 활성화해서 써라 당에서 안 가져간다 맞아 안 맞아요.

딱 일어나서 3년 만에 중국 경제가 완전히 살아나 버려요 그게 등사오평의 실용 노선이야 등사오평의 실용 노선을 누가 만들어줘요 하이에크가 덩샤오평을 중국에 가서 도와주고 그러니까 중국이 일어난 겁니다. 여러분들이 경제가 일어나는 기술은 우리는 모든 전 세계 경제 흐름을 꿰뚫고 있어요. 그러나 이 우리나라에 있는 국회의원들 정치인들 뭐 하는 사람들입니까? 그 사람들이 이런 거 알까 이런 거 알까요? 상상도 하지 마세요. 내 강의를 우습게 알면 안 됩니다. 절대 내 강의에는 무슨 귀신 같은 뭐가 들어 있어요.

하늘에서 주는 에너지가 또 있어 여러분들이 알지 못하는 정말 버스 회사가 3200억을 서로 많이 가져갈려고 연봉 5억 5000짜리 사장을 뽑아내고 임원이 5억씩을 받아가는 이런 나라에 버스 운전기사는 항상 사고 위험이 있고 사고 나면 지 월급에서 까 그런 원 운전사들이 웬만한 사고는 자기 돈으로 줘야 돼요. 호주머니 비상금을 가지고 있어요. 그래서 한 달에 기껏 일해봐야 350만 원 받아요. 그것도 뭘 뇌물을 줘야 취업이 돼 그 신문에 많이 나왔잖아. 내가 신문에 안 난 이야기하면 내 고소당해요. 맞아 안 맞아요. 검찰에서 수사해 가지고 버스 회사에 그 간부들이 많이 났어요. 옛날에 신문에 나는 그런 말 해도 관계없어요.

참 입에서 말이 안 나와 그래서 이렇게 했는데 이 하이에크가 중국을 자본주의로 만든 사람이야 알겠죠. 하이에크가 그런데 이 중국이 자본주의가 되었다 하더라도 중산주의 합니까? 안 합니까? 안 해요. 부자는 엄청난 부자야 가난한 자는 엄청난 가난이에요. 그리고 허경영은 대통령이라면 개인 소유 돈의 상한선이 있어야 된다는 거야. 맞습니까? 안 맞습니까? 에 일정 금액 이상은 국가에 세금으로 가져가서 지금 한일 양행이요. 뭐 한미약품 임회장이 이번에 돈 한 5조 원 가져왔죠 그래 안 그래 벌었죠. 5조 원 계약해서 가져왔잖아. 그러면 이 사람이 금년에 돈을 얼마 벌었어요. 한미약품 임 회장이 금년에 돈을 얼마 벌었어 내가 물어보는 거예요.

그 여러분들은 머리가 그렇게 빨리 안 돌아가니까 내가 기가막힌다는 거예요. 5조 원을 외국에서 팔았어. 안 팔았어. 그러니까 한미약품 주가가 또 5조 원이 올랐어요. 그래 이 사람이 10조를 번 거야. 맞아 안 맞아요. 주식 값이 몇십 배가 뛰어 버린 거야. 그러니까 한미 약국의 회장은 팔아서 5조 원을 생돈을 벌어서 또 주가가 5조가 뛰어버린 거야. 어 몇 만 원짜리 주식이에요. 돈이 한 10조가 생겨 안 생겨요 생기니까 그중에서 그래도 이 사람은 1100억을 내 같으면 한 그래도 내가 대통령한테 요럴 때 얼마를 가져온다고요. 우리나라가 요럴 때는 7조 정도를 뺏어온다 이 소리야 내 말 이해 갑니까? 그러나 이거 가져올 기술이 없잖아. 우리는 지금은 그렇게 안 돼 있잖아요.

그 사람들이 개인이 무한정 가지는 건 여러분한테는 좀 가져오자 이 소리야 개인 소유의 돈이 너무 올라가는 건 하자 이 말이지 그러면 1100억은 여기에 껌값 맞아 안 맞아요. 이게 전 사원의 평균 4000만 원을 노놔 준 거야. 나눠줬어 그러면 이 사람도 대단하다고 우리는 떠들어 근데 이거는 코끼리 비스겟뜨야 나는 그걸 다 보고 있어 안 보고 있어요. 내 눈에 한미약품의 회장은 쇼하고 있는 거예요. 이 돈에서 조단위를

줘가지고 한 사람에게 4억 정도 줘야 돼 맞아 안 맞아요. 1100억이 아니라 1조 1000억 어때요 맞습니까? 안 맞습니까. 10분지 1이라도 줘야지 10분의 1이라도 줘야지 얼마를 국민한테 주식들 직원들한테 100분의 1을 줬는데 칭찬을 듣고 있다니 이게 얼마나 기가 막혀 에 맞아 안 맞아요. 이런 자본주의는 중산주의가 맞습니까? 아닙니까 아닙니다. 나라 망하는 주의야 가면 갈수록 나라는 망해 이 사람은 돈 처치를 못 해 그래서 나중에 형제끼리 싸우다가 니가 많이 가졌잖아. 내가 많이 가졌다 샀다가 롯데같이 되는 거예요. 절대 이거 안 됩니다.

그래서 그 사람들이 가진 거 이렇게 뭐가 많이 돌아서면은 어떻게 가만 가지고 있는 주식 이거 어느 정도는 국민들한테 이렇게 10분지 1보다는 아니 100분의 1보다는 10분의 1 어느 정도는 직원들한테 줬다면 이거는 중산주의야 약간 가까워 이제 중산주의가 뭔지 알겠죠. 나는 모든 사람들의 행동을 보고 있고 모든 국회의원의 일거수일투족을 지켜보고 있다. 모든 장관들의 은행을 체크하고 있고 기록하고 있다. 나는 누구일까? 나중에 상상도 못하는 일이 여러분들 보게 될 거예요.

그러면 우리나라 한국은행도 민영화해야 될까 안 해야 될까 응 우리 한국은행도 좀 바꿔야 돼 응 그래서 우리나라 경제학자들은 경제를 이 서울대학교 나온 우리나라 경제학자들은 우리나라 경제를 뭘로 보냐면 대학에서 배울 때 대학에서 배울 때 계수로 배워요 일 플러스 일 은 이 다 이렇게 배워 맞아 안맞아요. 그런데 허경영은 어떻게 배워요 상수로 배워 일 플러스 일 은 일 이다. 그래요. 안 그래요. 한미 약품의 회장은 일 플러스 일 은 이 가 된 거예요.

맞아 안 맞아요. 일 플러스 일 은 왜 일 이 됐을까? 그 사람은 국가에 그만큼 기여한 걸로 남아야지 포인트나 많이 가져가고 세금 포인트 그 돈을 국가에 거의 많이 내놔야 돼 그 세금 포인트 가져가고 나머지는 국민들한테 자기 직원들한테 복지에 써야 돼 안 써야 돼 그러니까 일 플러스 일 이 돼도 자기의 것은 크게 변동이 없다. 이 말이야. 알겠죠. 그래서 사람이 건전한 삶을 살 수 있다. 근데 명분은 큰 거야. 국가에 기여했다. 그래서 한미 약품이 자본 축적은 좀 더 많이 하고 투자는 좀 더 많이 하더라도 거기에 어느 정도 이것을 유지해 가는 거지 너무 이런 식으로 올라가는 자본주의는 자꾸자꾸 부자가 요렇게 돼 안 돼 에 그러면 지금 현재 전 세계 5프로가 전 세계 돈의 90프로를 가지고 있어요.

맞아 안 맞아요. 그러면 조금 몇 년 더 있으면 전 세계 5%가 전 세계 돈의 95%를 가지게 돼요. 맞아 안 맞아요. 이게 올라가면 올라가지 내려올 일이 있어 없어요. 그러니까 전 세계 인류는 노예야 노예 자본의 노예 이걸 이야기하는 사람이 누구예요? 칼 막스예요. 칼 막스 알겠죠. 그래서 이런 위험성이 있다. 이 말이야. 그러니까 이거를 비스듬히 이렇게 완만하게 해 줄 수 있는 게 이거야. 상수요 일 플러스 일 이 삼 사 오 자 요거하고 육 칠 팔 구 십 이 뭐가 차이가 있어요. 요 수가 무슨 차이가 있어 상수로 보면 아이구 덥다

무슨 차이가 있습니까?

밑에 거 위에 것은 차이가 많죠 같은 한 자리에 올라가는데도 밑에는 기업같이 부자들 같이 늘어나는데 밑에는 늘어나겠죠. 대해서는

요거는 말이에요. 근본수예요. 근본수 근본수 왜냐면은 봐요. 일 플러스 삼 플러스 오는 뭐예요? 구 맞아 안 맞아요. 이 플러스 음수 이 플러스 사 는 육 맞아 안 맞아요. 그렇죠. 육 이죠. 그러면 우리가 천부경에서 태극을 볼 때 요렇게 생겼잖아. 요게 구 자야 구 맞아 안 맞아요. 그다음에 요게 육 자 맞아 안 맞아요. 그러면 구는 하늘 이거는 땅이죠. 그러면 1 2 3 4 5 안에 하늘과 땅 들어 있어 안 들어 있어 다 들어 있는 거예요.

이 숫자는 필요 없어 이거는 그러니까 우리는 여기가 뭐여 목이고 여기가 불이고 여기가 수고 여기가 금인데 여기가 토죠 중앙이 여기가 우리 코리아야 그러면 중앙의 토면은 이게 한 둘 서이너이 다섯 오 행 맞아 안 맞아요. 그러니까 이게 오 행이야 근본수지 그렇죠. 오행이 근본 이게 근본수 맞잖아. 이게 오행이잖아. 맞아 안 맞아 이게 주역에서는 이 오행만 있으면 모든 것이 다 일어나는 거지 그러니까 이걸 가지고 우리가 미국을 어떻게 대해야 되고 중국을 러시아 그다음에 중국 일본을 어떻게 대해야 된다. 이게 나오는 거잖아. 그러니까 이 숫자 이 숫자 안에서 하는 정치가 중산 경제야 그런데 이 사람들은 이 숫자에 매달리는 거야. 자꾸 6 7 8 9 이거는 숫자가 아닙니다. 무슨 말인지 알겠어요.

이거를 허수라고 그래 허수 이 허수에 너무 매달리는 거예요. 이것만 있으면 다 이루어져 잘 안 보입니까? 응 다 적으세요. 내가 이야기하고자 하는 게 있는데, 이야기를 하다 보니까 시간이 또 그러네 그래 서울 시에 버스가 내가 한 8000대 된다고 그러잖아요. 정확하게 버스 대수는 7485대예요. 알겠죠. 서울 시내버스 대수는 7485대야 내가 뭐 강의할 때 한 8000대 된다. 뭐 그러면 되는 거예요. 그렇게 하면 되는 거지만 7485대 버스 기사가 만오천명이에요.

1년에 버스가 채용하는 인원이 3만 5000명이에요. 3만 5000명을 채용하다 보니까 여기에 채용 비리가 있는 거예요. 그래서 버스회사도 건전하게 운영하고 가능하면 우리 국가 세금을 잡아먹는 일이 없도록 그래 또 하나 그러니까 운전사가 만 5000명이 운전을 하고 있는데, 이 교대로 하니까 요게 두 명씩 하니까 3만 3만 5000명이에요. 그렇게 알고 있으라 이 말이에요. 응 그다음에 저거 뿐만 아니라 응 지금 국가가 우리가 돈을 낭비하고 있는 게 버스 뿐이 아니다. 이 말이에요.

모든 공기업이나 국가 지원하는 곳에 예산이 빠져나가는 데가 이루 말을 할 수가 없다. 그래서 국회의원은 특권이 몇 개예요. 박 회장님 국회의원 35 가지 특권에 자 이것도 앞으로 뭐 정리해야 되고 음 국회의원은 한 국회의원이 한 사람이 연간 가져가는 게 국회의원들이 전체 가진 8544억이에요.

8544억을 가져간다 내가 웃도리를 좀 벗고 해야 돼 더워서. 그래서 우리가 일본을 본받지 말아야 되는데 일본을 미워하지 말고 일본과 잘 해보자고 했는데 내가 신동욱 씨하고 이거 뭐지 어 이 롤스로이스의 대담 여러분 보셨죠 거기에 내가 소녀상 앞에 갔는데 나하고는 사람들이 사진 찍느라고 사진 찍자 그러고 신동 씨 보고는 막 뭐라고 하는 거야.

그 저 뭐 와이퍼가 뭐라 그랬다 이거지 그러나 소녀상은 좋은 곳으로 공원을 만들어서 옮겨야 되고 일본 대사관 앞에 두는 것은 문제가 있어요. 그래서 내보고는 그래도 아무 말도 안 하고 다 사진만 찍으니까 신동욱 씨가 아니 허총재님이면 그냥 여전히 그냥 인기가 여기 와서도 그냥 인기좋죠 데모하는 사람들이야 데모 하는 데서 내보고 가라 소리는 안 해 나는 내보고 사진 찍느라 바쁘니까 근데 신도욱 씨는 조금 그렇게 하더라고. 그러나 내가 신동욱씨와 마음이 다른 건 없어요. 위안부는 위안부 문제는 박건영 씨가 일본의 천황을 폐하려고 한 것만 문제지 나머지 말은 전부 옳은 말이야.

아버지와 딸이 말이 같아야 돼 아버지는 포괄적인 해결을 해서 그리고 우리가 국민한테 위안부라는 말이 안 나오게 해결해서 지혜롭게 한마디로 말했어요. 그런데 우리는 어쩌다가 그걸 다시 해결해 달라고 위안부 이야기를 꺼내버린 거야. 그러니까 우리 후손들한테 챙피한 거 맞아 안 맞아요. 그게 뭐 자랑입니까? 8억 불 받았으면 많이 받은 거예요. 더 받아봐야 일본에서 책정한 돈이 100억이야 그 100억 때문에 전 세계에 우리 할머니들이 일본 놈 시다바리를 했다. 그게 뭐 자랑입니까? 그거는 우리 민족의 자존심을 건드리는 거야. 우리는 천손 민족이야 우리는 천부경이 있는 민족이에요. 천부경 천부경이 있는 민족이라 이 말이야.

하늘에서 경전을 받았고 이스라엘 사람들은 66명이 성경을 만들어 안 만들어 하늘에서 준거 경전이 있는 나라 우리뿐이야 개천절 이 개천절 있는 나라도 우리뿐이에요. 우리뿐 그런데 이런 민족이 어떻게 일본 사람 왜놈들한테 가서 위안부를 했다는 걸 그렇게 자랑을 해 사요. 돈 100억 받겠다고 솔직히 말해서 전 세계 우리나라 망신시켰어요. 전 세계 대한민국 위신 떨어뜨리는 거야. 우리의 할머니들은 그런 일 없어요. 우리 할머니들은 혀를 깨물고 죽으면 죽었지 거기 가서 위안부 하겠어요. 일본 여자들이 한 거야.

그거 나는 믿어지지가 않아 우리 옛날 할머니들은 위안부 끌려가면 자살해버려 혓바닥 깨물고 나 우리 국적을 가진 사람들인지 내가 궁금스러워 우리는 또 그런 일이 있어도 말 안 해요. 대통령이 깨끗하게 돈 8억 불 받고 포괄적으로 하니까 도장 찍어주고 8억 불 줬지 그게 우리만 합의를 본 게 아니고 월남 다 봤어 사람들도 위안부가 다 있었어요. 왜 사람들 가만히 있을까? 챙피하다 떠들지 마라 우리 돈 옛날 받았다. 약속시키는 건데 우리나라 사람은 거지 근성이 있는 거야. 받아내면 더 달라는 거예요. 자꾸 가서 그 얼마나 일본 사람들이 볼 때는 일본 사람들 내가 30년 전에 일본 동경을 가서 택시 기사 보고 기사님 내가 어디 가려고 하는데 주소를 딱 보여주니까 타세요. 그러는 거야. 타세요.

그거 찾아가는 데 한 시간 걸렸어 딱 여깁니다. 그러대 그래 내가 고맙다고 택시비 얼마예요. 하니까 무슨 말씀이냐고 길을 물어봐서 내가 당신 태워서 안내해 줬는데 요금을 내가 왜 받습니까? 기절을 하는 거야. 그래서 내가 아닌데 아니 내가 길을 물어봤는데 당신이 태워줬잖아. 그게 아니래요. 길을 물어본 사람한테 길을 안내하는 건 내가 좋은 일을 하는 건데 내가 왜 돈을 받습니까? 난 거기서 충격을 받았어요. 일본 사람은 한 번 약속하면 그대로야 자기 상관이 잡혔는데 운전사가 불면은 상관이 교도소가 그러면 운전수가 그날 저녁에 자살해 버려 그런 민족이에요. 우리가 일본 사람이 한 명을 고소할 때 우리 몇 명 고소해요. 191명 191명 191대1 이야 일본 사람은 일본 사람을 고소하질 않아요. 긴 전생에서 고소 제일 안 하는 민족이 일본 사람이에요.

전 세계 고소 일 등이요. 무슨 말인지 이해 가시죠. 그 사람들에게 본받을 것도 있다. 이 말이에요. 그 사람들은 한 번 돈 주고 그래 그렇게 해서 없는 걸로 합시다. 필리핀이나 태국이나 월남이나 미얀마나 그대로 있는데, 우리나라만 더 내놔라 이거야. 더 내놔라 이거야. 온 세상에 협박을 하고 다니는 거예요. 창피스럽게. 내가요 내가 이런 강의를 하지마는 대한민국 국민 바꿔야 돼 알겠습니까? 그러니까 우리가 경제할 때 일만 불은 뭐면 된다고 그랬어요. 일만 불은 뭐 하면 된다고 그랬어요. 멘파워 아니 우리가 이거는 노동력만 있으면 되잖아.

우리는 노동력만 있으면 이것이 일 만 불을 올릴 수 있지만 이 만 불을 할 때 뭐라고요. 테크놀로지 이거는 기술이 있어야 된다. 기술. 기술력이 있어야 돼 3만 불이면 뭐라고 그랬어. 에티켓 에티켓이 뭐예요? 응 에 매너가 아니고 에티켓입니다. 에티켓 이거는 예절이야 맞아 안 맞아요. 그러면은 4만 불 할 때는 뭐가 있어야 된다고 그랬어요.

4만 불이 매너야 매너 매너 5만 불은 응 트러스트 신뢰 맞아 응 신뢰 그러니까 일본 사람들이 지금 얼마냐면 5만 불이야 일본 사람들이 5만 불인데 일본 사람들이 3만 불 에티켓 통과했어 안 했어. 그때가 30년 전이야 내가 일본 갔을 때 우리나라에 지금 내가 택시한테 쪽지 가서 길 좀 가르쳐 주세요. 일본 사람이 와서 딱 그러면 안내해 주라고 요금 얼마 달라고 하겠어요. 바가지 우리 아직 멀었습니다. 여러분 정신 차려야 됩니다. 그래 가지고 여러분이 하늘나라 가서는 너 뭐하다 왔냐 택시 요건 바가지 씌우다 왔습니다. 바가지 씌운 돈 어디다 썼냐 술집 여자하고 같이 술 먹는 데 썼습니다. 잘했다. 그럼 니는 뭐하고 무슨 좋은 일 했냐 기억이 안 납니다.

절대 우리 민족 정신 차리세요. 그러니까 이 사람들은 에티켓이 되니까. 3만 불 통과한 거야. 근데 우리는 2만 불에서 3만불 갈 수 있어요 없어요? 정부의 국회의원들 정치인들 지도자 전부 국가 예산 절약한 공무원은 무조건 모가지야 좌천이야 너 왜 예산을 200억을 절약했냐 그 바람에 다 내년에 예산이 200억이 까껴 이놈아 넌 제주도로 가 이새끼야. 이래 버려요. 맞아 안 맞아요. 이래 가지고 공무원이 예산 아낀 공무원은 그냥 좌천이야 어떻게든 국가에서 받은 그 예산을 다 닦아 써야 돼 야 그러니까 우리가 이번 이번 사4분기 전에 하수도 지하철 보도블럭 멀쩡한 거 여기서 이 킬로미터 걷어 빨리빨리 해서 이 예산 다 닦아 써야 돼 야 회식 오늘 저녁부터 앞으로 연말까지 회식 한 40번 해야 돼 반복 맞아 안 맞아요.

그럼 국가의 예산 다 닦아 써야 나중에 다 썼습니다. 하고 보고서 올리고 또 내려오는 거예요. 예산이 이건 망국적 국가야 맞습니까? 안 맞습니까? 그런 지도자를 신뢰할 수 있어요? 없습니다. 이제는 이런 거 용서할 수 없어 우리는 이런 매너 이 매너는 뭐죠 여러분 프랑스 가서 상류층 사람하고 식사를 하는데 밥 먹다가 그 포도주 한 번 마시는 태도라든지 하나를 딱 봐요 보고 얘한테는 오다를 줘서 안돼. 얘 봐야 얘는 틀렸어 딱 제껴 버려 야 매너를 보니까 이거 촌놈이야 이거는 벌써 귀족이 아니야. 내가 상종할 사람이 아니구만 딱 뭐 하는 거 밥 먹는 태도를 탁 지켜본다고 보다가 보니까 저거는 완전 저거는 완전 엉망지창이야 그러면 니는 우리하고 거래할 자격이 없어

이게 EU 국가들이 매너를 엄청 따져 외국 사람들은 바이어들 그러니까 매너가 좋아야 4만 불 시대에 들어갑니까? 안 들어갑니까? 4만 불 시대에 들어가는 거예요. 그러나 5만 불 시대에 넘어가는 건 이거는 스위스 사람들 일본 사람들 여기까지 올라갔어 스위스는 몇 불이에요. 9만 불 그다음에 여기 5만 불 이상부터는 승승장구야 예 스위스는 내가 이야기하는 이유는 우리가 일본 대통령 일본 수상이 인플레이션 양적 완화를 하고 미국이 양적 완화를 하는데 우리는 긴축 경제를 하고 있어 그럼 되겠습니까? 우리도 화폐 가치를 떨어뜨려 우리도 수출하는 거 확대해야 돼요. 그런데 지금 금년에 수출이 몇 프로 줄었죠. 마이너스 17% 역사 이래 처음이야 아니야.

박근혜 정부 들어서 처음이야 허경영의 머리를 빌릴 생각도 안 하고 한번 물어보지도 않아 알겠죠. 자기들이 제일 잘하는 줄 알아 그 사람들은 계수와 상수가 뭔지 잘 알까 그 사람들은 전자계산기만 쓰는 거예요. 계수만 알겠습니까? 경제라는 건 그렇지가 않아요. 우리 국민의 가계부채 자 그러면 우리 국민의 가계부채는 1300조 1300조 지자재 부채가 얼마죠 100조 공기업 부채가 얼마죠 300조 알죠 국가 외채가 얼마죠 5000조 합계가 얼마죠 6700조죠 그죠.

달러로 6조 불이야 6조 7000 불이야 이거는요 우리 GDP의 몇 배입니까? 18배나 돼요. 18배 안 높아요. 엄청난 거예요. 나는 세계 최고의 경제 달인이에요. 숫자의 달인이고 내가 일 부터 몇 가지 씁디까 우리나라 경제학자가 일부터 무량대수까지 쓰는 사람이 있어요. 천 컴퓨터 이거 나옵니까 그 숫자까지 이 계산기에 나와요. 안 나와요. 그거를 곱하기 나누기 인수분해를 하는 거야.

머리로 그러니까 사람들은 내가 지금 국방부 예산이 얼마죠 작년에 우리 국방부 예산이 얼마죠 37조야 그러면 우리 국가 예산의 10%가 국방 예산이야 맞아 안 맞아요 문교부 예산이 얼마예요. 문화 체육부 예산이 35조예요. 그런데 누리 과정에 밥값을 준다 안 준다 저 난리를 하고 앉아 있어 에 총살감이에요. 총살감 직장 다니는 여성들을 불안하게 하고 그 어린애 낳지 말라고 노래를 부르고 앉아 있는 거야.

세계 최저출산인데 아무리 다른 행사는 못하고 다 못해도 누리 가정의 어린애들한테 주는 그 돈은 100% 줘야 돼 안 줘야 돼 줘야 애를 낳아 안 낳아! 주고도 3000만 원씩 보태줘야 돼 안 줘야 돼 나는 대통령이 되면 10년 전부터 애 낳은 사람은 3000만 원씩 계산해 줄 거야. 10년 전부터 애 세 명 낳은 사람은 9000만 원이야 대통령이 되면 소급해서 줘 내 대통령 된 이후부터 애 낳은 사람을 주는 게 아니고 10년 전에 애 낳은 사람 한 사람당 3000만 원 애 세 명 낳은 사람은 애가 11살까지 된 사람은 얼마 받아가요 9000만 원 받아가요 내 대통령이 되면 내가 그거 안 주면 대통령 직을 물러나 돈이 없다고요. 내 이야기한 거 도둑놈들 이야기 들었죠. 돈은 남아 돌아가는 거야.

남아 돌아가 이것뿐이 아니라 재벌들한테 깎아준 세금이 연간 200조예요. 또 교도소 없애 교도소에 살인범 강력범들만 교도소 가요 나머지 경제범 뭐예요? 그 사람 제일재단 회장 들어가 있잖아. 그런 사람 구속 안 시켜요 벌금으로 때려 야 너 1조 내 너 주식에 몇 % 내놔 그러면 너는 그냥 석방이야 그러니까 재벌들은 벌금을 거두면 1년에 한 100조가 또 들어오네 교도소 운영비 안 나가네 법무부 공무원 월급 안 나가 그건 맞아 안 맞아요. 뭐하러 가두어 놓고 호텔을 같이 만들어 놓고 내가 들어가니까 너무너무 편해 아니 책을 10권을 썼다니까 10권을 연락 오는 사람 없지 맨날 앉아서 글만 쓰는 거야.

그리고 음악을 6개를 만들어서 전부 일 등에서 나왔어 책 10권이 조금 있으면 나올 거야. 그거 나오면 나는 청와대로 밀려 들어가 대통령 안하겠다고 대통령 안 하겠다고 아무리 도망가 봐야 헛 일이에요. 그 책 10권 나오면 그중에 하나가 허경영의 중산주의 경제론 또 하나는 허경영의 세계통일 알겠죠. 그러니까 허경영의 책이 10권이 나오는데 다 재미있어 허경영의 공중부양 축지법 알겠죠.

그런 거 재밌는 책들이야 그래 그런 책이 나오는데 10권이 나와 10권을 안에서 썼는데 그렇게 좋은 데다가 먹여주고 재워주고 옷 주고 이불 주고 목욕시켜 주고 다 해 줘 그러니까 세상에 혼자 밥해 먹고 살려니까 참 그때가 제일 부러운 거지 사실은 그런데 세 끼 밥이 5분이 안 틀려요 세끼 밥이 밥구멍으로 딱 들어와 나는 밖에 안 나가고 앉아만 있으니까 세끼밥이 밥구멍으로 닦은 시간을 보면 5분도 안 틀려요 또 대통령 나간 사람 교도소장 위에서 교도소 높은 분들이 수시로 와서 들여다보고 인사해 그러면 불편한 거 없냐 불편한 게 어디 있어요.

세계 최고 호텔인데 그래 안 그래 그래서 나는 거기서 항상 하늘나라를 갔다가 왔다가 거기는 낙원이야 그런 짓을 그런 곳을 우리가 죄진 사람한테 제공해야 되겠어 안 해야 되겠어 안 해야 되는 거야. 전부 벌금 벌금형 못 내면 다음에 내라 하는 거예요. 없는 사람들은 알겠습니까? 재산이 있는 사람은 재산을 몰수해 벌금으로 그러니까 재벌들 한 번씩 잡혀 오면 재산이 자꾸자꾸 정부로 와 안 와 그러니까 재벌들 재산 늘어나는 게 조절이 돼 안 돼 당신 재벌인데 들어왔네 오늘 당신 지난번에 보니까 한미 약품 해서 당신은 10조 벌었는데 당신은 오늘 벌금 이 조 내놔 그러면 사람 재산을 조절할 수 있어 없어요. 다 할 수 있어요. 그걸 우리가 가져와서 여러분 빚 갚아 줄 수 있어요. 그러니까 재벌은 열심히 벌고 돈을 국민들한테 좀 부스레기를 나눠줘야지 다 가져가 버리는 거예요.

알겠습니까? 자 오늘 시간이 없으니까 뭐 궁금한 거 없습니까? 아니 뭐 이야기하다 보니까 시간이 좀 빨리 가네 질문해요. 빨리하고

월남전 파병이

그러니까는 이제 주신다고 하셨는데

그런 맥락에서 일제 시대 때 뭐 징용으로 가셔서 피해 당하고 억울한 죽임을 당하고 하시는 분들이나 위안부 이런 부분들을 국가에서 배상금을 받았지만 예 그분들 개인한테 이제 어떤 혜택이 돌아간 적은 별로 없지 않습니까? 그래서 나중에 대통령이 되신다든지 이런 위치에 가시면은 그분들 개인에 대한

어 그런 거는 저분 말씀이 상당히 일리가 있는데, 위안부 일본의 징용자 살아있는 사람에 한하는 거예요. 파월자에 해당되죠. 그런데 여기서 중요한 것은 잘 보세요. 징용자 중에는 특별히 죽은 자 중에도 일부 받아가겠죠. 위안부 죽은 사람도 줘야 되겠죠. 그렇죠. 이거 죽은 자라 해당돼요. 파월자 죽은 사람 다 해당돼요. 그런데 이 사람들이 파월자는 5억을 줍니다. 일시불로 5억을 줘요 그리고 월 300만 원 이거는 국가유공자죠 맞죠. 이거는 참전용사입니다. 이렇게 미국은 이거의 몇 배를 줘요 이렇게 주면 전쟁 나면 서로 싸우려고 그래 저거 안 주면 다 도망가 알겠습니까?

징용자 100% 옛날에는 이거 박대통령이 받아서 징용자 보상을 못 했거든. 위안부 제대로 보상 못 했거든. 형식적이었거든. 그런데 이거는 충분히 몇 십 억의 보상이 각각 나가요 다 해 줘요 그래서 일체 불만이 요만큼도 없도록 다 해 주고 단 국가가 이분들의 의견을 90% 이상 수용하는 거예요. 알겠습니까? 해결해 줘 왜 우리가 이런 거를 돈이 없는 시대는 이걸 안 줬지만 대통령이 우리 월남 간 사람들은 국가가 사람 월급의 90%를 가져갔어 안 가져갔어요. 갔으니까 5억을 줘도 국가가 이익이야 맞죠. 그래서 이런 돈을 주겠다. 그래서 이거는 내가 깨끗하게 위안부나 징용자나 파월 참전용사는 해결합니다. 알겠습니까? 그러나 일본 사람한테 내놓으라고 싸울 필요 없다. 이 말이야. 국가 돈으로 내가 주겠다는 거야.

옛날에 8억 불 받았으니까 이해 갑니까? 그다음 질문 말씀하세요. 네

3대 저거지 이번에 노소영 씨가 일도 하는데 3대 저거리 들어가서 한 칠 8초로 가던

네 예

어떻게 해서 유공하고 통신공사가 와서 구멍가게가 상대돼 버려졌는지 그것 좀 이야기해 주고 국가에서 그런 돈을 가졌을 때 우리 서민의 피해는 어떻게

그러니까 지금 아까 말한 대로 노소영 씨가 가진 돈은

거기서 번 돈은 잘 아시겠지만, 노 대통령하고 연관이 있죠. 그렇죠. 노 대통령이 돈 생기는 쪽에 연관이 있었겠죠. 그거는 앞으로는 세금 제도로 이런 것은 거의 다 내가 아까 이야기했죠. 많이 벌리는 건 해소한다고 일정한 개인이 일정한 이상에 늘어나는 것은 국가가 세금이라는 이름으로 가져와요. 그래서 걱정 안 하셔도 됩니다. 그러나 이거는 대통령이 관여된 권력이에요. 누가 봐도 그걸 전두환이가 가져간 돈을 우리가 지금 따질 수가 없는 거죠. 마찬가지로 그러나 당시 이런 부조리가 있었잖아요. 그거는 내가 대통령이 되면 그런 일이 없고 이런 것들은 모두 중산주의에 걸립니다. 중산주의가 걸리니까 그건 걱정할 거 없습니다.

그다음에 돈이 어떻게 조성됐는지는 너무 걱정 안 해도 되고 오늘 수고하셨습니다. 자 박 회장 누가

[Music] [Music] Please say unification often The world economy now is this individual tax macroeconomics, this, and then microeconomics, and then what came next? What is this? This economy, and then what came next? We had the IMF When the IMF came, we went back to work, and then we went back to work, and then what did we come back to these days? This was overturned several times, and now we’re at this Market economy Today, we’ll talk briefly about the trends in our economy and the world economy Since our economy is in a serious situation, what is this? Molka is going down and the value of money is going up Prices are originally going down and pork cutlets are going up, but what is this? Inflation is when prices go up and the value of money is falling Then what is this? What comes next? Prices go up, and so on Prices are going up, but what’s the difference between this and this? Until now, our country has been a watchdog economy, and that’s why the IMF came later The whole world has been theorizing about the individual tax economy, but the world economy is now facing a crisis, so our economy is also in crisis We need to diagnose the world economy so that you all understand it But economists are making this diagnosis so complicated that you’re confused So what I’m talking about today is, this is the economy that will be like this until 2015 This is what I’m looking forward to It’s going to go like this Let’s see what the economy is like Prices will rise, the value of money will fall And then there’s stagflation Prices will rise, and the economy will decline You understand What is eggflation? Prices will rise, agricultural product prices will rise, and the economy will decline Now, look carefully What I’m trying to say is that Japan’s Prime Minister has had fun with this macroeconomics Look what he’s had fun with in recent years He succeeded in creating inflation Prices went up and the value of money fell Why did he create this inflation? Why did the Japanese Prime Minister have a state-controlled economy? By lowering the value of Anna, he tried to increase exports He succeeded He succeeded But what did we do? Our politicians are doing this What is this? They secretly lowered the IMF on the market economy, and then because they were afraid, they left it to the market economy So The president boldly promoted inflation The Japanese prime minister ordered the banks to print money, print thousands of yen, and then give it to people who don’t have it That’s why they did n’t do that The Japanese economy didn’t work out, so the value of the currency fell sharply Exports were doing well So who runs the economy? Are geniuses doing it? Is that right? Is that right? Economists can’t do it Is that right? Is that right? If that’s right, then the Japanese are 30 years ahead of us Yes, they are 30 years ahead Then we have to keep up for another 30 years Japan has to keep up Well, Japan’s real estate bubble came, and we slowly started to rush into real estate Yes, right? So in the past, we didn’t make a lot of money In the future, will salaried workers have a lot of money? If they buy a 50 million won public housing apartment in Banpo for 50 million won and make 3 billion won or 1.5 billion won in just a few years? Yes, right? Yes, right? Don’t expect anything like that So, if you go to a bar and give a tip like that, you’ll ruin your family So we should give tips, but the era of reckless spending is over, not over After Japan’s era of reckless spending ended, only the elderly remained As the elderly spend money, all of this elderly money goes to Hawaii, the United States, and other foreign countries Japan has no money They just print it and print it What is that? What is that printing? The Japanese Prime Minister’s policy is quantitative, but quantitative increase is money that is just suspiciously ordered to be printed, and so those who do not have it are boldly raised So, if I become president, the first thing I will do is boldly raise inflation in our country Instead of doing inflation 30 years after Japan, I waited two years and became president So, there is no politics in our country that would boldly raise money like that There is no politics Let’s print a whopping 1,500 trillion won and use it to pay off 100% of the household debt of the common people Everyone’s debt is zero Banks don’t pay interest, so you have to borrow it with interest and give it to them interest-free Pay off all your hard work So there is no debt Everyone, all your store debts will disappear If Heo Gyeong-yeong, who is doing business, becomes president, he will give it all away Do banks pay interest? Bank interest is only used by corporations The working class and middle class are worried about rising prices and not being able to live because of interest payments They should know that paying interest is more frightening Just eat less of the price-gouging stuff Go buy something cheap and eat it Our government officials don’t think about that and only worry about prices Now, that’s right If the people [applause] go to the bank, who are the bankers? Foreigners Foreigners are taking everything They’re taking our money and all our living expenses Are foreign banks like the Foreign Exchange Bank and our banks? In the past, other people took everything Then what are you doing? You’re sitting here with your salary paying interest to foreign countries and not being able to spend money That’s good for the president Even if there’s a little inflation, I’ll print 1,500 trillion like the Japanese prime minister and pay off 1,300 trillion won in household debt and pay off all the debt of the rest of the individuals Then, whether those people can pay it back in 50 years or 100 years, if they can’t pay it back and die, the country won’t care and wo n’t use it You idiot If you just give it to me without receiving interest, what will they say to me again? It’s in the form of a loan, but you’re just taking advantage of it Then, every household in our country has no debt If there’s no light, our people will live on pensions If I give each of them 700,000 won in senior citizen benefits, and my parents receive 1.4 million won, they won’t live So, saving the people is simple That’s right That’s right But this is the kind of politics they’re engaging in Deflation Deflation That’s right What are you doing? Prices can’t go up Prices, stabilize prices Where are these crazy people? You guys are talking like that All of our people will die That’s right That’s right You guys should figure it out I’m suddenly in a desperate need for a vision before I become president Why should I take as much as I want and spend it? Why is it 1,500 trillion won? Household debt is not 1,200 trillion won, it’s around 1,300 trillion won So, if we assume that by the time I become president, we’ll increase by about 200 trillion won, we’ll hit 1,500 trillion won Crush it all That’s right Where has our country’s money gone since this money went out? It’s all hidden in 50,000 won bills We’re printing it, you guys I think there will be a lot of inflation All the 50,000 won bills went underground and when they tear down that wall, money comes out on stage So where did all the money hide? After the 50,000 won bills came out, they smuggled them overseas So, our country’s money is worried about inflation, but if it doesn’t come, they print 1,500 trillion won and pay off all the debts of the common people There are many cartoons about people who are in debt by taking personal matters from our country People who are on the verge of suicide, all of them are alive Heo Gyeong-yeong pays off all their debts worth hundreds of millions of won with no interest Do you think so? Do you think you will believe me if I talk about it on TV? Do you think you will believe me? I know how to kill and save the Korean economy I am a genius So, how can someone who came from heaven not know this and sit there? Get angry So, we are cowards Right now, we graduated from Seoul National University Take a good look We have never done business We have never run a business Do you think so? Economists who only act as numbers This is not a feeling of use, it is a feeling of story The death penalty That is our country’s economy The prime minister, the minister of economy, and he is very much sitting there There’s no one who’s ever done business Do you understand what I’m talking about in that country? The nobles, the nobles with good fortune, all they’ve seen are books Right, right, right What have these people ever connected to reality? What do they always hear? They meet with high-ranking bank executives Right, right What do high-ranking bank executives do? Hey, make sure they pay a lot of interest We need to use politics to increase household debt Just let them create household debt Then the bank business will be good Those people and all their seniors and juniors are right or wrong Banks, economists, and economic ministers are right or wrong I know it’s all a rigged game of Go-Stop Why are you paying this off? Why are you paying this off? Do a good job Who is responsible for this 1,500 trillion won household debt? It’s because of the politicians So it’s the country’s fault Yes, that’s right The country printed cards to stimulate the card market Yes, that’s right So why isn’t there a card crisis? What did they do to labor? To stimulate the economy, they made each person have 15 cards Yes, that’s water They use their cards as if they were writing Then, household debt didn’t exist before the civilian government took over, but after the civilian government came in, household debt snowballed and went up like this During the Park Chung-hee era, household debt was like this So, from here, Kim Young-sam, Kim Dae-jung, Roh Moo-hyun, Lee Myung-bak, Park Geun-hye, oh my, it just keeps going up Why did it go up? Because Kim Young-sam was in power, where did the 30,000 people who suffered under him, who were involved in the democratization movement, go? 30,000 people went in for the government investment period for civil servants, and they didn’t go in As they all went in, the national disintegration began to rise Then, when Kim Dae-jung took office, another 30,000 people came in Oh, another 30,000 people came in This is where another 30,000 people came in This kind of thing never happened when there was a soldier like Park Chung-hee Anyone who took money would be punished by the grandfather who was in trouble President Park did that, right? But all the civilians were people who had starved They had no military spirit So, these people, tens of thousands of people, went in and made themselves into just one person Let me tell you exactly what I mean There are 66 bus companies in Seoul right now Yes, that’s right, a Seoul city bus company I’ll give you just one example This is a private company Yes, that’s right All the executives of public companies in the country are the backers of the people who took power That’s right, isn’t that right? Their average salary is 500 million won per year Their average severance pay is 3 billion won That’s right They don’t do anything They only show their faces once or twice a month It’s hard to look at the standing auditor That’s right, isn’t that right? Their severance pay is 4 billion won What kind of people do these things? This is all a den of thieves You can kill me We have to do it right Why is this exponentially increasing and causing the country to fall apart? Since the soldiers are gone, how much does the Seoul Metropolitan Government support the 66 bus companies in Seoul per year? The support amount is 320 billion won The mayor of Seoul plays along with this He talks directly to the bus company presidents because they say they’ve seen a deficit They’re supposed to be audited 12 times a year, but they only do it once every 11 years And who does that audit? The auditors selected by the bus companies and recommended by them do the auditing So the thieves? Who is this? Do you think this 320 billion won is distributed fairly every year, more than 66 times? Do n’t even imagine it Exactly what kind of person would you bring in as the CEO here? Oh, you have to put someone close to the person in power here to bring in a lot of money Right? Right? The average annual salary is 550 million won The female bus CEO, the current president of the Seoul city bus company, has a minimum wage of 550 million won The annual salary is 800 million won But look at the annual salary of a bus driver There are 15,000 bus drivers in Seoul right now Because there are 8000 buses in Seoul, that’s about twice as many drivers Isn’t it 800? There are 15,000 drivers What is the average salary of these people? Their annual salary is 40 million won Do you understand? So these people drive and earn 40 million won, which is 350 million won a month But the bus company president earns 550 million won 550 million won a month Their monthly salary is 10 times that of a member of the National Assembly What kind of person does that person do? They are all people related to the government How can you get 3200? Those lobbyists say, “I’ll take it from the bus company presidents even if I get sued by the bus company That’s not a lie What happens if I lie?” “Yes, no, that’s right.” So, a bus company usually has four executives Listen carefully The average salary of an executive is 500 million won So, the average salary for a bus company is 2 billion won, and the executives alone make 2 billion won a month and a year The average deficit of a bus company is 6 billion won a year The government compensates for this So, 66 is 36, right? 320 billion won is the same thing Right or wrong But there are some who give a lot and some who give a little Buthere, in front of the executives’ wages, isn’t it a deficit? Why are executives receiving tens or even tens of times more than bus drivers? I was going to ask that, so you all said, “Yes, that’s right.” Then why is the bus company loading up? It’s a deficit because of the executives’ salaries But all the executives are their family members They put their family members in the CEO’s chair One is satisfied with himself, and the other is his uncle And they earn 3 million won a month They’re hiring drivers who earn 3.5 million won, but if they do n’t pay this, don’t hire them, don’t even say anything That absurdity is going in, but they have to pay hundreds of millions What are they doing? They’re spending money and there’s no budget I live on a bus It’s not even public That’s right Companies that are losing money should be boldly eliminated, bus companies should operate normally, and government support should be eliminated Is that right? Is that right? [Applause] There’s a civil servant in Seoul who allocates this money Do you understand? Do you trust him? Will he allocate it normally? Don’t even imagine it If you say one wrong thing, even the leader will go without you knowing Since hundreds of billions come and go, it’s nothing for Heo Gyeong-yeong to eliminate one It’s not something that can be done without me And when it comes to bus fares, they’ve never asked the public for their opinions Who’s building and cutting them? Just raise that road like that Just by looking at the way they operate these buses, it’s obvious that it’s a mess Look closely The Grand National Party is the Saenuri Party How much did the Saenuri Party, a party that received government support in 2014, receive in 2014? In 2014 38 billion Listen carefully I wonder if this country is crazy These people, even if they don’t give 38 billion, they have to run the party by collecting party dues from their party members Yes, no, that’s right And yet, they say the country has 2 million party members Even if they only collect 10,000 won from each person, that’s 20 billion Stop talking nonsense Stop scamming them What kind of party is that? The country spends 38 billion won a year Does that make sense? And the Democratic Party of Korea, there was a party that disappeared 6.1 billion won You know they gave up right before the general elections What kind of party was that? The Justice Party, 3 billion won Why are you giving this? So, how much exactly is it? 80.3 billion won? What are you doing? 80.3 billion won 320 billion won When I calculate this, 70% of the taxes paid to the country are fake After I become president, you tell me, “What are you talking about? If you get married, how can you give me 300 million won?” Don’t give me 300,000 won If you cut off all the money that’s being spent incorrectly from the country’s budget, even if I die, There’s nothing left Oh, if this and this are small, how many are there now? There are tens of thousands They do n’t just give this with tens of thousands Information on civic groups Groups that listen well Give me money Don’t give it I ca n’t say anything Civic groups are groups that receive support from the state That’s a civic group That’s a group that keeps the state in check Oh, no, I’m just crying tears of blood from my eyes I’m like this Of course, I write until 2 a.m to refute this I ca n’t sleep like you at night, but at night, my eyes are bloodshot and I write about ten or so books It’s a mess But when I see this, my eyes are bloodshot When I think about what you owe, that’s right That’s right With this [applause], this blind money This is the Analects of Confucius Who is the one who allocates it? You guys, this blind money Give 80 billion won to the political parties a year And on top of that, the total amount of money that the National Assembly members have in a year is 800-900 billion won 300 National Assembly members take in a year, and including their aides, that’s 900 billion won I’m a total of 1 year They’re taking 1.3 trillion won Let’s think about it Why do we have to pay for this? Don’t pay for this and do it without compensation Is that right or wrong? Is that right or wrong? Is that right or wrong? Then, there’s about one second left from the National Assembly members per year Is that right? Why waste about 1 trillion won? Can we waste 1 trillion like this? These people don’t receive donations and receive hundreds of millions of won in technology licenses per year Then, do you pay them a salary? And to give them a salary guaranteed by each donation and each Is that right or wrong? Are there political party subsidies in the US? No In the US, are there Republican and Democratic party offices or not? No There is one computer and one female employee Some of them are in separate offices and are staying there There is no party office Every election, candidates have their own personal offices temporarily only for the election period Yes, that’s right When I look at the people of our country, all the people who planned the national budget should be executed later They ate up all the people’s money that should have been received That’s why they were so upset that they risked their lives to become civil servants I guess he’s risking his life in politics It’s not that the country does n’t have money, it’s that there are too many thieves The mayor of Seongnam is going around saying that Heo Gyeong-yeong’s words were right in his head No, I did n’t see it It’s been 25 years since I said to reduce the number of National Assembly members by 100, but Ahn Cheol-soo copied 100 of them I can sit down a lot and I have to follow How funny So those people need to study a little It’s good that Hwang Tae-soon likes me, but it’s been 30 years since I said to run the National Assembly without any special training But Ahn Cheol-soo copied me Am I copying Ahn Cheol-soo? Heo Gyeong-yeong’s campaign promise was to have you all receive a 200,000 won senior citizen allowance Is that a hit? Yes or no Then I said I’d give you 700,000 won, but he completely changed that and gave it to me So our country, our country, is managing the national budget like that, but our economy is always lagging behind Japan So can we also overtake Japan? Can’t we? So when Heo Gyeong-yeong became president, all of this country Sitting here looking at the budget like a scale What is this person lying about? What is this person doing? I’m still watching with blood in my eyes No, I always talk about where the money comes from Where does it come from? How do I dispose of the 900 trillion won in underground funds? So, the budget will be set No, these people say that Heo Gyeong-yeong only makes offerings and doesn’t say anything about the budget Do n’t you know how shameless he is? What are you going to do to me later? You’re all aides You dig up all the positions You’ll see later Is this a lie? I’m absolutely not an ordinary person When I came to work, the world will be set right only when our country is set right Is n’t that right? [Applause] Heo Gyeong-yeong ‘s middle-class economy is this individual tax, macroeconomics, this government-controlled economy Roosevelt did a lot of it Roosevelt government-controlled economy, cash, what is it? New Deal policy Then, this is needed and this is needed, and we need to mix it We used politics and economy with this, and war was fought, but it didn’t work out Why did this collapse? Why did this collapse? Everyone imitated this person, and presidents around the world imitated his individual tax Why did individual wealth disappear and this appeared? Finally, these days This is why I turned to this Why is that? Someone I know, when the Soviet Union collapsed, this person’s communism, this person’s personal life, this person’s communism, this person’s longing, this person’s similar to a communist He’s British, like Karl Marx, he’s very knowledgeable about the communist economic system, the rules of economics, and this He travels the world There are two schools of thought: the personal socialist school and the lower Kafka school People from Adam Service, Adam Smith’s capitalism, Max Weber’s capitalism, and capitalism descend from this to Keynes Two giants emerged Hayek and the economic system As the Soviet Union collapsed, Seoul, this was communist When the Soviet Union collapsed, the entire Soviet Union and the whole world followed this But when the Soviet Union collapsed, the personal tax theory didn’t work This collapse didn’t work, so now his microeconomics, market economy, this, that’s called neoliberal economy You know, neoliberal economics, this market economy, he turned around and turned around, but now that he’s turned around like this, is it okay? The middle class economy goes to Heo Gyeong-yeong What is middle classism? Middle class economy is middle class economics It’s a mixture of economics and economics You know, only the good ones among them Do you understand? So this person’s communist macroeconomics, not a government-controlled economy, not a complete market economy It’s a completely middle-class economic system that makes consumers king Do you understand? [Music] It’s not an economic system that makes sellers king, but where you, the citizens, are queens This middle-class economy is an economic system Do you understand? All consumers will live well Do you understand? If businesspeople make that much money, consumers will also benefit It’s not like that now We have businesspeople taking everything from the people Do you understand? So I’m also implementing the New Deal policy Do I benefit agriculture or not? I also promote agricultural oil and stimulate the market economy So, I’m saying that middle-classism is these people This only feeds the conglomerates These are both different things But what is middle-class? It’s about creating a middle class for all the people, humanity Do you understand? Okay, quantitative easing Mr Yang, this is quantitative easing This, this, this In English, companies create deficit reports and the government takes 320 billion won There’s a huge amount of corruption, but since I became president, no one has revealed it Since the money is so big, the CEOs sitting there are the ones with power Do you understand? So, if I say something like this now, there’s going to be another uproar They’ll probably ask what’s wrong with that guy, Heo Gyeong-yeong This is the Mirgation easing conti table Even if prices rise slightly, it’s beneficial if there’s no interest It’s 10 times more beneficial You understand, right? My heart, my heart, my heart Prices are rising, agricultural products are rising, and the value of mobilized funds is falling Egg Fresh One Stagflation means prices are rising, the economy is falling, and inflation means prices are rising, and the value of money is falling It’s not that important whether they’re falling or rising The common people have nothing to spend money on, so what’s the difference? That’s right, there’s no debt My heart, my heart So, this is the money that our country can save right now About 250 trillion won is wasted money Is 250 trillion won wasted from the national budget in one year? Isn’t it small? It’s enormous At least find it and return it to you Okay, I’ll return 250 trillion won a year I’ll print 1,500 trillion won and return it About 2,000 trillion won is going out To you, if there’s no one in debt in our country, then who has debt? Who has debt? Businesses, large businesses, small and medium-sized businesses, people like that People in debt You see, those individuals, those self-employed people, all their debts will be zero So, if I become president, this talk about the superintendent of education will be over Who will elect the superintendent of education now? Listen carefully, superintendent of education, the head of the agricultural cooperative association, there is no election system, the country will be ruined The Minister of Education ‘s words should be clearly communicated, but in the middle of that, the superintendent of education is there, and the local government heads are gone The election system for the heads of the organizations is gone All of this is gone Who will elect this person? It is an appointed position This country will be ruined The reason Japan is so successful now is because of the IMF Does Japan have a real-name financial system? No Japan does not have a real-name financial system Our economy was ruined because of the real-name financial system Also, there is no real-name real estate system We are ruined because of the real-name real estate system The father put 10 billion won in the bank In Japan, the father’s son knows if this exists The son doesn’t know In Korea, if it takes 10 billion years, the son will know It’s a real-name financial system The son knows He just waits for the day his father dies He doesn’t work But in Japan, even if the father has money, the son does n’t expose the money in order to become self-sufficient If you tell them to do something, they won’t know If you say it in someone else’s name or in a friend’s name, they won’t know And if they think their father does n’t have money, that’s because they’re working hard In our country, if the father has a premonition of money, it’s exposed Something comes from the bank to check Then the son knows everything Then they research things like how to kill their father or when their father will pass away They never think about working There are many people like this So the money is exposed This person saved 10 billion won and made a donation to a foundation or something They are trying to start a new business or something They are doing good deeds and making donations But if the son finds out, look at the child They become enemies or admirers Whether it’s his father’s bank account or not, would he donate all of it like that? That’s what I mean But in the past, when our country didn’t have a real-name financial system, we could do this, but now we can’t So the children all know their father’s financial situation and the family tells them to do it So there are various problems in the family So we went to Hong Kong, Switzerland, Japan, and countries like the US that don’t have a real-name financial system, and we don’t have money They hide it So Switzerland is seeing a lot of dirty money coming in from all over the world Hong Kong is the same So our country is also seeing money flowing out Where does it go because of the real-name financial system? It goes to countries like Hong Kong, Switzerland, Japan, and the United States So our country only values ​​the cause and has suffered economic losses That’s right No, who established the cause? Kim Young-sam is President Kim Young-sam But President Kim Young-sam, everyone Last time, there was a reevaluation, and our economy was ruined because of the real-name financial system It was ruined because of the Central Government Complex In terms of feng shui, should n’t we abolish the Joseon Dynasty? Then, if the Central Government Complex is flowing out, the palace, that old palace, if it’s important, we should utilize that building Isn’t that right? How many tile-roofed houses are that important? If cause is important, then so is cause President Park Chung-hee prioritized cause over cause We ended history with Japan You and I, Cheolcheon and I, are enemies Syngman Rhee slowly became enemies We won’t accept money from Japan So, we didn’t accept it But President Park Chung-hee, if you look closely, there’s no money When he tried to develop the economy, Japan We’ve been harassing someone Let’s get it That’s right Go and negotiate How much do you want? 800 million dollars was that a small amount at the time? It was a huge amount Let’s just negotiate and get 600 million won 200 million won for war damage was a loan and a long-term loan With this, our economy was revived But the Philippines, Thailand, Myanmar, and Vietnam all took it They took it and built the presidential villa, the golf course, the presidential swimming pool, and the government complex Those in power ruined it all with political funds So listen carefully The reason you should remember President Park Chung-hee is because the 800 million dollars was like the sea If President Park Chung-hee had been politically active, we could have criticized the Korea-Japan talks The entire nation was criticizing President Park Chung-hee Wouldn’t it be better for us to survive and not even President Park Chung-hee’s chief of staff? Everyone was against it, so why are you blowing it alone? We have to do it We have to do it We have to bring in exactly who we competed with and bring in the criticism To be precise, it’s the Pohang Iron and Steel Company highway Let’s use it all Let’s personally clean up our government Let’s liquidate our Ministry of Finance Let’s build it What do we need? Don’t do all that If this money breaks down, we won’t be able to do anything Even if we have to starve and do administrative work in a container, don’t build such buildings Use the money to build factories and leave this for our descendants To do that, do you have to receive humiliating money from Japan? You go there and bow your head and receive that 800 million dollars It’s the same Should I spend the money I bowed my head and received on such a time? So, don’t use it, which is bad at all, and invest it all in economic development Then, what percentage of our country’s economy was it? 68 dollars The GNP is true But the richest country at that time was Thailand North Korea was 170 dollars They lived twice as well as us The Philippines and Thailand were all 200 dollars That’s right Oh, these well-off countries were above us We were the last, but President Park Chung-hee took it Other countries also received it These people still have n’t gone up much But how much is ours? It’s 28,000 dollars And we didn’t go up much, so we went up hundreds of times These people wiped out that money It’s been spent How much is North Korea’s economy now? The Philippines and South Korea are all better than ours So President Park Chung-hee really spent this money well He used that money with integrity and saved our economy, but politicians in other countries like Thailand, the Philippines, Myanmar, Vietnam, etc used all that money for political purposes That’s why those countries, in Asia, ranked seventh in the world We entered the top 10 economies in the world But North Korea was living twice as well as us at $170 per capita We brought electricity here, so we didn’t bring it We brought electricity from the Su-pung hydroelectric power plant They were so poor But North Korea, which was once well off in Asia, became a beggar They became poor But North Korea is a self-sufficient country, so why bother? Our economy is a bit different from ours Anyway, what did President Park Chung-hee do? Was it blind? Was it practical? What was President Kim Young-sam’s name? The list of justifications is empty So our economy has been going downhill since President Kim Young-sam That’s why democratization The forces claim to be pro-democracy forces, but the pro- democracy forces are obsessed with Kim Young-sam and Kim Dae-jung becoming presidents In the world, the United States is currently indirectly elected There are 528 electoral college members These are the representatives of the unification subject in the United States President Park Chung-hee created the representative for the unification body So, the president was elected there If that were the case, the election costs would have gone in and out Our lives are not good or bad We are now worth $100,000 Our people have become a family of bean powder If you change democratization to another word, it is bean powder Yes, it is bean powder, but if you want to applaud, applaud loudly [Applause] So, you all know that I am speaking out of the blue, but our country ‘s economy has been in decline since the democratic government came to power after the Yuk Mi-na administration due to corruption, and under the leadership of Kim Young-sam, Kim Dae-jung, Roh Moo-hyun, Lee Myung-bak, and Park Geun-hye, our country’s economy has gone downhill and has now become beyond rescue I will not go in and go in So, what will I do if I become president? Well, this is 2015 so far This is it This is what happened after Huh Kyung-young became president After Huh Kyung-young became president, it changed like this and printed 1,500 trillion won What is this from the staff? Quantitative easing The United States has changed tremendously because of quantitative easing If there is foreign debt, it changes and they print and circulate it But the US dollar goes into the basement of each country No matter how much they erase, US money does not cause inflation So Americans are very happy They just print money And those people live by holding on to money They took it from each other in their past lives So inflation in the US does not occur, does it not occur? So, the US president says, ” Where does the central bank of the US belong? Is it an individual? Where does the Bank of Korea belong? We, like Keynes, have it in the country Our Bank of Korea So in the US, private citizens hold all the money Yes, yes, yes, no, no, no.” Mi Young-gyun is a private organization It’s not the Bank of Korea like us So in the US, private citizens print money to sustain the US So, what does the US live on? Quantitative easing, Japanese quantitative easing What are we doing? What are we doing? We are austerity This is messing with me But what does it mean? In a key economy, the people are given money from above Is that right or not? You need to come to your senses You need to come to your senses People say that when I talk about something now, they do n’t see it as something negative or anything, but they see it all as positive But right now, our people are so wronged I ca n’t forgive them If our country is implementing an austerity economy and on top of that, the market will dry up and die China, China, China Why did the Chinese economy happen? [Music] Why do you think the Chinese economy happened? This is unconditionally a cat that can’t chew gum, how about strength? This is my idea, my idea, China wrote I raised these kids, and the people understand But these people did this, and what this means is, let’s hide democracy and foster industrialization I told this to the president, and this is a black cat and white cat, and Deng Xiaoping followed suit This is my life, this is my life This is an idea I came up with when I was 21 So, the people understand, democracy must breathe Democracy must hide democracy and foster industrialization So, if you compete with this here, you’ll get cursed I’ll go here I put a mountain in front of the head, and put the sun here, and put Deng Xiaoping here Do you know what I mean? So, let’s hide democracy and cultivate industrial development I told this to the president, and he brought it all the way to the mountain hospital, and the verb conjugation Yoko-daero He wrote it like this Well, I understand the pottery, right? So, let’s hide communism for a while and hide the philanthropy for a while Let’s cultivate their stuff The black guys say the end is capitalism That’s right They think white beggars are white This is a black cat This is the sun That’s what I did So, the black guys mean money So, they plagiarized communism They hide communism for a while and think that black material is black In 1973, they invited Hayek and asked, ” How can we feed our Chinese people?” That’s exactly what he said That famous saying Do n’t you remember? In 1973, Jeong Sa-byeong moved to Germany and invited Hayek I invited them and met with the Chinese mountaineers How can we feed our Chinese people? We can’t survive right now That’s exactly why I saw the arrow and said, “Hey, Hayeker advocates pragmatism What’s the point of reconciliation? From now on, don’t collect what the farmers are growing, but put it on the market so they can sell it Go to China and China has risen The technology that makes the economy grow is something we know We have a handle on the global economic trends But in our country, what kind of people are the politicians and lawmakers? Are they like this? Don’t even imagine it You shouldn’t take my lectures lightly There’s something ghostly in my lectures There’s energy from heaven What you don’t know is that in a country where bus companies are trying to take 320 billion won from each other, and they elect a CEO with an annual salary of 550 million won, and executives each receive 500 million won In this country, bus drivers are always at risk of accidents, and if an accident happens, it’s not even a monthly salary Right? Those drivers have to pay for most accidents out of their own pockets They have emergency funds in their pockets So, once a month, they can pay for it Even if I work hard, I only get 3.5 million won, and even that requires bribery to get a job It was in the newspaper a lot If I say something that wasn’t in the newspaper, I’ll get sued That’s right The prosecution is investigating, and the bus company executives say, “This is a minus In the past, it didn’t matter if you said something like that in the newspaper I could n’t even say it So I did this This Heieker is the one who made China capitalist You know But even if China became capitalist, is it middle-class or not? No The rich are incredibly rich, and the poor are incredibly poor And Heo Kyung-young said that if you become president, there should be an upper limit on personal wealth Is that right? Any amount over a certain amount is taken as taxes to the country Now, it’s a Korea-Japan trade Hanmi Pharmaceutical’s Hanmun store, which is sick, brought in 5 trillion won this time Yes, it didn’t Oh, it came from a good contract So, how much money did this person make this year? How much money did Hanmi Pharmaceutical’s store make this year? I’m asking You guys don’t think that fast, so I’m amazed Oh Jeong-won set it up It sold it overseas, so it didn’t sell it Hanmi Pharmaceutical’s stock price has risen by 5 trillion won again So this person has made 10 trillion won? Is that right? Is that wrong? The stock price has increased dozens of times So the chairman of Hanmi Pharmaceutical sold it and made a quick buck today, and the stock price has increased by 5 trillion won That money, which was worth a few tens of thousands of won, has become 10 trillion won So out of that, this person would take 110 billion won So, how much would I take when I’m the president? When our country is in a situation like this, they’re stealing the actual amount Do you understand what I’m saying? But we don’t have the technology to do this We can’t do that right now Those people are saying that they want to take infinite amounts from you It’s a defect that the amount of money owned by individuals is rising too much So, 10 billion won is just a piece of gum here Is that right? This is helping all employees by averaging 40 million won We say that this person is amazing because they’re having fun But this is like an elephant secretary Hey, I’m seeing it all I’m not seeing it In my eyes, the chairman of Hanmi Pharmaceutical is just putting on a show He’s giving me trillions of won out of this money We need to give about 400 million to each person Is that right? Is n’t that right? How about 1.1 trillion won instead of 100 billion won? Is that right? [Applause] [Music] I’m hearing praise How absurd is this? Is this kind of capitalism mediocrity? No, it’s a ideology that will ruin the country The more it goes on, the more the country will be ruined These people can’t handle money Then, later on, when brothers fight, they’ll say, “You have a lot, I have a lot,” and end up like Lotte Yes, that’s absolutely not right So, if these people had this much, how could they quietly hold onto the stocks? To some extent, this is mediocrity Rather than a job at number 10, no, rather than a road of 100 minutes, if it’s good for the employees, then this is mediocrity It’s a little closer Now, mediocrity You know what I am I am watching everyone’s actions, and I am watching over the monogamy as the job of every member of the National Assembly I am checking and recording the banks of all ministers Who am I? Later, something unimaginable will happen to you Then, should we privatize the Bank of Korea or not? We need to change the Bank of Korea too [Music] [Music] So, how do our economists, who graduated from Seoul National University, view our economy? When they learn in college, they learn with coefficients They learn that 1+1 is 2 That’s right But how does Heo Kyung-young learn? They learn with constants 1+1 is 1 That’s right The chairman of Hanmi Pharmaceuticals said that 1+1 became 2 That’s right Why did 1+1 become 1? That person should remain with the amount of contribution he made to the country He takes a lot of points That’s right He should give most of that tax point money to the country He should take the points now and use the rest for welfare for the people and his employees He shouldn’t use it So even if 1+1 becomes 1, his own doesn’t change much You get what I mean, right? That’s why that person You can live a healthy life, but the justification is great The country has contributed So, even if Hanmi Pharmaceutical accumulates more capital and invests more, it maintains this to some extent Capitalism that goes up like this keeps getting richer It ca n’t be like this Right now, 5% of the world owns 90% of the world’s money That’s right, that’s not right Then, in a few more years, 5% of the world will own 95% of the world’s money That’s right, that’s not right If it goes up, it won’t go down So, all of humanity in the world is slaves Slaves Slaves to capital Who is talking about this? You understand So, there’s this risk So,this can be made slanted and gentle like this This is a constant So, 1 minute 4 5 6789 10 What’s the difference between this and 6789 10? What’s the difference if you look at it as a constant in Yeosu? This is the fundamental number of the fundamental number Because, look, what is 1 plus 3 plus 5? That’s right, that’s not right Negative 2 plus 4 is 6 Yes, that’s right, that’s right, it’s 6 Then when we look at the Taegeuk in the Cheonbugyeong, it looks like this This is the nine The nine is the sky This is the earth Yes, that’s right Then, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 contain the sky and the earth They’re all there We don’t need these numbers This is, so what is this place? This is wood, this is fire, this is water, this is gold This is where it bursts The center is our Korea Then, in the center, the blueprint is one, two, the five elements of the Westerners Yes, that’s not right So, this is the five elements It’s the fundamental number The five elements So, what is this fundamental number? This is the five elements Yes, that’s right In the Book of Changes, if you have these five elements, everything happens So, with this, how should we deal with the United States, how should we deal with China, China, and Japan? That’s what comes out So, this number The politics within this number is the Zhongshan economy But these people are obsessed with this number They keep saying six, seven, and eight This is n’t a number Do you know what’s the priority? This is an imaginary number So, they’re obsessed with imaginary numbers If you just have this, everything happens Ca n’t you see it? Write it all down There’s something I want to talk about, but as I was talking, time kept passing by So, I said that the number of buses in Seoul was around 8,000, right? To be exact, there are 7,485 in Mushroom Do you understand? The number of buses in Seoul is 7,485 When I lecture, I say that there are around 8,000 That’s fine But in practice, there are 15,000 bus drivers The number of people hired by the bus company in a year is 35,000 Since they hire 35,000 people, there is corruption in hiring So, the bus company should operate soundly and, if possible, not eat up our national taxes But, the total number of people is 15,000 Oh, so these 15,000 drivers are having problems Since they take turns, this means 30,000 people, 35,000 Just know that In addition, the government is not only wasting money on buses The budget is leaking to all public enterprises and government-supported organizations It’s ridiculous I ca n’t do it So, how many privileges does a member of the National Assembly have? Chairman Park, 35 privileges of a member of the National Assembly This also needs to be sorted out in the future One member of the National Assembly takes 854.4 billion won annually They say they take 4.4 billion won in 850.4 [music] So, we should n’t emulate Japan Let’s not hate Japan and get along well with Japan Did you see that with Shin Dong-wook? I went in front of the statue of a girl, and people were taking pictures with me Shin Dong-wook was like, “Let’s take a picture.” His wife said something But the statue of a girl needs to be moved to a nice park and moved Placing it in front of the Japanese Embassy in the United States is problematic So, they don’t say anything to me and just take pictures If Shin Dong-wook is a hypocrite, he’s still popular People who come here are just godfathers They don’t tell me to try it out and go I’m busy taking pictures But Shin Dong-wook did that a little bit But I have different feelings from Shin Dong-ok There is no such thing as comfort women The comfort women issue is only a problem because Mr Park Geon-hyeong tried to overthrow the Japanese emperor Everything else is correct Father and daughter should be on the same page Father solved it comprehensively, and we solved it so that the people would never hear the word comfort women He spoke wisely in one word But somehow we ended up bringing up a false rumor asking for it to be resolved again So, it is embarrassing to our descendants, right? No What is there to be proud of? If we received 800 million dollars, it is a lot If we receive more, the amount set by Japan is 10 billion won Yes, right? Because of that 10 billion won, our grandmothers all over the world were treated like Japanese What is there to be proud of? That hurts the pride of our people We are a people descended from heaven We are a people in the Cheonbugyeong Cheonbugyeong Yes, right? We are a people with the Cheonbugyeong We were warned by heaven, and the Israelites had to make the Bible by 66 people We are the only nation with the scriptures given by heaven National Foundation Day Yes, right? We are the only nation with this National Foundation Day We are the only nation with this But how could a nation like this go to the Japanese and the Japanese? You bragged so much about being a comfort woman, saying you’d take that 10 billion won Isn’t that right? To be honest, you’ve embarrassed our country to the whole world You’re shaking the spirit of the Republic of Korea all over the world Our grandmothers never did that Our grandmothers would bite their tongues and go there and do it when they die Those Japanese women did that I can’t believe it Our grandmothers in the past would commit suicide if they were taken away as comfort women They would bite their tongues and just wonder if they were just people with our nationality We don’t say anything even if something like that happens The president cleanly received 800 million dollars and comprehensively agreed to it, so we stamped our seal and gave 800 million dollars It wasn’t just us who made the agreement We saw all of Vietnam, so they all had comfort women Why are those people just sitting there? It’s embarrassing Don’t make a fuss We received the money a long time ago Koreans who keep promises are beggars and perfunctory When they receive it, they keep asking for more and go How much does it cost when Japanese people see it? 30 years ago, I went to Tokyo, Japan, and told a taxi driver where I was going and when I showed him the address, he said, “Get in.” It took about an hour to get there It’s right here By the way, thank you How much is the taxi fare? What is it? You asked for directions, so I gave you a ride and showed you around, so why am I charging you? You fainted That wasn’t me No, I asked for directions, and you gave me a ride I’m not Giving directions to someone who asked for directions is a good thing, so why am I charging you money? Wow, I was shocked there Japanese people keep their promises once they make them If their superiors are caught and the driver doesn’t pay, the superiors will go to prison If that happens, the driver will commit suicide that evening That’s the kind of people we are When a Japanese person sues one person, how many of us are there? 191 people, 191 to 1 Japanese people do n’t sue other Japanese people In a long past life, there was a people called Jella Japanese people are the number one lawsuit in the world Do you understand what I mean? We have things to learn from them They give money once and do something that doesn’t exist The Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, and Myanmar are all the same, but give us more They’re threatening the whole world It’s embarrassing I’m giving this lecture, but the people of the Republic of Korea have to change Do you understand? That’s why I said, “What can we do for 10,000 dollars when we’re doing economic development?” What did you say you could do with 10,000 dollars? Manpower No, we just need labor Right? Right? We can raise the general price with labor, but when it was 20,000 dollars, what did you say? This requires technology Technology What do you mean, technology? It’s not manners, it’s etiquette This is etiquette Right, right Then what did you say you needed to do when it was 40,000 dollars? 40,000 dollars is manners, manners, manners 50,000 dollars is indoors So, how much is it for Japanese people now? 50,000 dollars? Japanese people are 50,000 dollars They passed the 30,000 dollar Etude and went inside That was 30 years ago when I went to Japan If I were to send a note to a taxi driver and ask for directions when I came to a Japanese place, I would ask them how much it would cost to guide me We still have a long way to go You guys need to come to your senses So, when you go to heaven, what did you do? You reported the taxi fare and all? Where did you use those pants? You spent them drinking with a bar girl Good job Then what did you do? What good did you do? I don’t remember No, absolutely not Our national spirit Prepare yourself So these people have become etiquette, so they passed the 3rd round But we can go from 20,000 to 30,000 dollars There is none Government members of the National Assembly, politicians, and leaders, all civil servants who saved the national budget are unconditionally demoted What are you doing? Why did you save 20 billion won in the budget? Because of that, next year’s budget will be broken You punk, you’re going to Jeju Island That’s right With this, civil servants are in the budget Civil servants are just self-promotion We have to clean up all the budget we received from the government So, before this fourth quarter, we need to quickly and quickly clean up 2km of sewage and subway lines From tonight until the end of the year, we have to have a company dinner for about 40 minutes Repeat Yes, no I used it all up later It’s coming down again This is an international country Is that right? Can we trust such a leader? There is none Now, this is unforgivable We have these manners What are these manners? You guys, if you go to France and have a meal with upper class people, you have to check one thing, like their attitude towards drinking wine while eating You give this person an order and look at the person You country bumpkin, this is already not a miracle This person is not someone I can deal with I watched everything you did, your eating manners, and when I looked, that was a complete mess Then you have no right to do business with us No, that’s not right That’s why countries are very particular about manners Foreigners have to be careful It’s just like that So, if you have good manners, will you enter the $ 40,000 era or not? You’re entering the era of death The only people who go beyond the $50,000 era are the Swiss and the Japanese How many roots does it take to get up to $ 90,000? Then, from $50,000 and above, it’s a steady rise The reason I’m talking about this is that we have the Japanese president and prime minister doing inflation quantitative easing, and the US is doing quantitative easing, but we are practicing austerity Is that okay? We also need to lower the value of our currency We also need to expand exports But exports have decreased by several percent this year It’s minus 17% It’s not the first time in history It’s the first time since the Park Geun-hye administration took office They don’t even think about borrowing Heo Kyung-young’s brain or asking him once They think they’re the best Do they really know what a constant is? [Music] Those people only use calculators Do they only know coefficients? That’s not what the economy is Our people’s household debt So, our people’s household debt is 1,300 trillion 1,300 trillion How much is local government debt? 100 trillion How much is private sector debt? 300 trillion You know? How much is the national defense budget? How much is the passing score? 6,700 trillion That’s right In dollars, it’s 6 trillion dollars 6.7 trillion dollars This is this How many times our GDP is? It’s 8 times It’s not 18 times higher It’s enormous I’m the world’s best economics expert I’m a master of numbers How many things do I count from 1? There are economists in our country who use everything from 1 to infinitesimal algebra Does this come out on a computer? Does that number come out on a calculator? It doesn’t They multiply, divide, and factor it in their heads So, those people, what is the current budget of the Ministry of National Defense? What was our Ministry of National Defense’s budget last year? 37 trillion Yes, right? Then, 10% of our national budget is for the defense budget That’s right, the budget How much is it? The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism’s budget is 35 trillion won But they’re giving or not giving food money to the Nuri course I’m sitting here making a fuss I’m a target for execution I’m a target for execution I’m making working women anxious and sitting here singing songs telling them not to have children It’s the world’s lowest birth rate, and no matter how many other events we can’t hold, we have to give 100% of the money given to children in Nuri families We have to give it We have to give it [Applause] Did they have children? Even if they die, we have to give them 30 million won each We have to give it If I become president, I’ll calculate 30 million won for everyone who had children in the past 10 years Someone who has had three children in the past 10 years will get 90 million won If I become president, I’ll give it retroactively It’s not like I’m giving it to people who have had children since I became president It’s 30 million won per lover they had 10 years ago How much will someone who has had three children and now has an 11-year-old get? 90 million won If I don’t give that, I’ll step down as president I don’t have money You’ve heard what I said, you thieves Money keeps flowing in This is how much money is left Not only that, the tax cuts given to the conglomerates amount to 200 trillion won annually Also, only murderers and violent criminals go to prison in prisons for companies The rest of the economic criminals, like the chairman of Cheil Jedang, are in prison They don’t arrest those people They just fine them You give me 1 trillion won What percentage of my stock should I give you? Then you’ll be released So the conglomerates collect fines, and another 100 trillion won comes in every year The prison operating expenses don’t go away The salary of the Ministry of Justice civil servants hasn’t been met yet Why did they set up a fake hotel together? When I go in, it’s so comfortable No, I wrote 10 books No one calls me about those 10 books I just sit there all day writing And I made six songs, and they all came out at number one That’s right, the 10 books will come out soon When they come out, I’ll be pushed into the Blue House and say I won’t become president No matter how much I run away, it’s in vain When those 10 books come out, one of them is Heo Gyeong-yeong’s theory of middle-class economics, and another is Heo Gyeong- yeong’s world unification You know So there are 10 books by Heo Gyeong-yeong, and they’re all interesting You know Heo Kyung-young’s aerial shape shrinking method, right? He wrote those interesting books, but it’s so nice, and he feeds me, gives me a place to stay, humiliates me, and does everything for me So I can eat and live alone in the world, and that’s what I envy the most In fact, the baby’s food doesn’t turn on in the oven, so the baby’s food comes right through the exchange I don’t go out and just sit there, so that’s right, right? If you look at the baby’s food change, it doesn’t turn on for even 5 minutes That’s right, right? Also, when the president is out, high-ranking officials from the prison warden to the prison transfer officer frequently come to greet me Isn’t that inconvenient? What’s inconvenient? It’s the world’s best hotel, right? That’s right So I always go to heaven and come back It’s paradise We have to provide that to criminals, so we shouldn’t do it, we shouldn’t do it It’s all a fine If you don’t pay the fine, you’ll pay next time Do you understand that those who have property have their property confiscated and fined? So when the conglomerates take over once, their property keeps coming to the government They do n’t come So the conglomerates’ property increases are regulated No, that’s right You’re a conglomerate, but you came in today Last time I saw you, you wasted 10 trillion won with Hanmi Pharmaceuticals Today, if you pay a fine of 2 trillion won, we can control that person’s assets We can do anything We can take that and pay off your debts So, the conglomerates work hard and want to boss the people around with that money They take it all Okay, we don’t have much time today, so do you have any questions? Well, time is passing quickly as we talk Let’s ask quickly There aren’t many benefits that will go to those individuals, right? So, if you become president later or go to a kindergarten, what he said about individuals makes a lot of sense The comfort women during the Korean War, the Japanese conscripted women during the Imjin War, one of the living Powell And it applies But the important thing here is to look carefully Among the conscripted women, some of the dead will also receive it The comfort women and the dead should also receive it, right? The dead are included Powell All the dead are included But these people, Paul, give 500 million won They give 500 million won in lump sum and 3 million won per month This is a person of national merit, right? This is a veteran The US pays several times this amount If we give this much, they’ll fight each other in case of war If we don’t give this, they’ll all run away Do you understand? We give 100% to the conscripted workers In the past, President Park couldn’t compensate the conscripted workers We couldn’t properly compensate the comfort women It was a formality Butthis is sufficient Each person receives compensation worth tens of billions of won We give them everything So, we’ll address all their complaints to this extent And the government accepts more than 90% of their opinions Do you understand? Solve it Why didn’t we give this when we didn’t have money? But the president said that the government took 90% of the salaries of the people who went to Vietnam, so they did n’t take them Since they went, it would benefit the country even if we gave them 500 million won Please tell me about the small store and the Samjae Development How did the government raise our common people so that they could have people like that? So, as I said earlier, the money that Mr Noh Sa-yong has is connected to President Roh, as you know [music] Right? President Roh’s birthday is on the side There must have been a connection That’s because, going forward, most of this will be resolved through the tax system I mentioned this earlier They’ll resolve any issues that are too high Right? If a certain individual’s income exceeds a certain amount, the government will collect it in the name of taxes So, you don’t have to worry However, this is a power that the president is involved in Anyone can see that we can’t account for the money that Chun Doo-hwan took It’s the same But there was this absurdity back then, right? Right? Well, that wo n’t happen anymore if I become president All of this is tied to centrism Since centrism is tied to that, you do n’t have to worry about that So, you don’t have to worry too much about how the money was raised Thank you for your hard work today.

허경영 강연 기록물: 경제 위기 진단과 중산주의 비전

제1장: 세계 경제의 흐름과 대한민국의 현실

1.1. 반복되는 경제 위기: 케인스주의와 미시경제의 한계
세계 경제는 케인스의 거시경제 이론과 미시경제 이론 사이를 반복하며 위기를 겪어왔다. 대한민국 또한 IMF 외환 위기를 겪으며 이러한 흐름을 따랐다. 현재는 시장 경제 체제로 전환된 상태이다.

1.2. 디플레이션과 인플레이션의 이해
디플레이션: 물가가 하락하고 돈의 가치가 상승하는 현상이다.

인플레이션: 물가가 상승하고 돈의 가치가 하락하는 현상이다.

1.3. 대한민국 경제의 위기 진단
전 세계가 케인스 경제 이론을 따르다 위기에 직면했으며, 대한민국 경제 또한 예외는 아니다. 경제학자들의 복잡한 진단은 대중에게 혼란을 야기한다.

1.4. 스태그플레이션과 애그플레이션의 경고
스태그플레이션: 물가 상승과 경기 침체가 동시에 발생하는 현상이다.

애그플레이션: 농산물 가격 상승과 경기 침체가 동시에 발생하는 현상이다.

제2장: 일본의 경제 정책과 대한민국의 대응

2.1. 일본의 인플레이션 전략과 성공
일본은 인플레이션을 유도하여 엔화 가치를 하락시키고 수출을 증대시키는 정책을 성공적으로 수행했다. 이는 양적 완화를 통해 이루어졌다.

2.2. 대한민국의 시장 경제 의존과 한계
대한민국 정치인들은 IMF 이후 시장 경제에 의존하는 경향을 보였다. 이는 일본의 과감한 인플레이션 정책과는 대조적이다.

2.3. 일본의 양적 완화와 그 효과
일본은 수조 엔의 화폐를 발행하여 돈의 가치를 떨어뜨리고 수출 경쟁력을 확보했다. 이는 경제를 활성화하는 데 기여했다.

2.4. 부동산 거품과 가계 부채 문제
일본의 부동산 거품 붕괴 사례는 대한민국에 시사하는 바가 크다. 현재 대한민국은 부동산 거품과 가계 부채 문제에 직면해 있으며, 이는 서민 경제를 위협한다.

2.5. 일본의 고령화 사회와 소비 위축
일본은 흥청망청 시대가 끝나고 고령화가 심화되면서 노인들의 소비가 위축되고 자금이 해외로 유출되는 현상을 겪고 있다.

제3장: 허경영 선생의 경제 비전: 중산주의

3.1. 과감한 인플레이션 정책 제안
허경영 선생은 일본보다 30년 늦게 인플레이션 정책을 시행할 것이 아니라, 과감하게 화폐를 발행하여 경제를 활성화해야 한다고 주장한다.

3.2. 1,500조 원 발행을 통한 가계 부채 해결
허경영 선생은 1,500조 원의 화폐를 발행하여 서민 가계 부채를 100% 상환하고, 모든 부채를 무이자로 전환하여 국민의 경제적 부담을 해소할 것을 제안한다. 이는 국민의 삶의 질을 향상시키고 소비를 진작시킬 것이다.

3.3. 이자 부담 경감의 중요성
물가 상승보다 이자 부담이 서민에게 더 큰 고통을 준다. 이자 부담을 경감하는 것이 물가 상승을 억제하는 것보다 우선되어야 한다.

3.4. 디플레이션 정책 비판
물가 상승을 억제하려는 디플레이션 정책은 국민 경제를 위축시키고 고통을 가중시킨다.

3.5. 케인스주의와 하이에크주의의 한계 극복
허경영 선생은 케인스의 거시경제(관치경제)와 하이에크의 미시경제(시장경제)의 장점을 결합한 중산주의를 제안한다. 케인스주의는 소련 붕괴와 함께 한계를 드러냈고, 하이에크의 신자유주의 경제는 시장 경제의 문제점을 야기했다.

3.6. 소비자를 왕으로 하는 경제 체제
중산주의는 판매자가 아닌 소비자를 경제의 중심에 두어 모든 국민이 잘 살 수 있도록 하는 경제 체제이다. 현재는 사업하는 사람만 이득을 취하고 국민은 빈곤해지는 구조이다.

3.7. 농업 뉴딜 정책과 시장 경제 활성화
허경영 선생은 농업 뉴딜 정책을 통해 농업을 활성화하고, 시장 경제의 장점을 살려 모든 국민을 중산층으로 만들겠다는 비전을 제시한다.

제4장: 국가 예산 낭비와 부정부패 실태

4.1. 공기업 임원들의 고액 연봉과 퇴직금 문제
서울 시내버스 회사를 포함한 공기업 임원들은 연봉 5억 원, 퇴직금 30억 원 이상을 받으며 하는 일 없이 국가 예산을 낭비하고 있다. 이는 국가 재정을 악화시키는 주범이다.

4.2. 버스 회사 적자의 원인과 국가 지원의 문제점
서울시가 버스 회사에 연간 3,200억 원을 지원하지만, 이는 임원들의 고액 연봉으로 인해 적자가 발생하며, 이마저도 불공정하게 분배된다. 버스 회사 임원들은 운전 기사보다 수십 배 많은 급여를 받으며, 채용 비리까지 만연해 있다.

4.3. 정당 국고 보조금의 부당성
정당에 연간 수백억 원의 국고 보조금이 지급되지만, 이는 당원들의 당비로 운영되어야 할 부분이다. 미국과 같은 선진국은 정당에 국고 보조금을 지급하지 않는다.

4.4. 시민 단체 지원금의 문제점
정부의 말을 잘 듣는 시민 단체에 국가 예산이 지원되는 것은 시민 단체의 본래 목적인 국가 견제 기능을 상실하게 한다.

4.5. 국회의원과 지자체 요인들의 과도한 예산 사용
국회의원 300명이 연간 약 9,000억 원, 지자체 요인들이 1조 3,000억 원의 예산을 사용한다. 이는 과도한 낭비이며, 무보수 또는 후원금으로 운영되어야 할 부분이다.

4.6. 공무원의 예산 낭비 관행
공무원들은 예산을 절약하면 좌천되고, 예산을 모두 소진해야 다음 해 예산을 받을 수 있는 구조 때문에 불필요한 예산 낭비를 자행한다. 이는 망국적인 관행이다.

4.7. 국가 예산 낭비 규모
대한민국은 연간 약 250조 원의 국가 예산을 낭비하고 있다. 이는 국민에게 돌아가야 할 돈이다.

제5장: 대한민국의 경제 정책 실패와 역사적 평가

5.1. 김영삼 정부의 금융실명제와 경제 위기
김영삼 정부의 금융실명제는 명분은 좋았으나, 실리적으로는 경제를 위축시키고 자금의 해외 유출을 초래하여 대한민국 경제를 망가뜨렸다.

5.2. 박정희 정부의 실리 외교와 경제 발전
박정희 정부는 일본으로부터 8억 달러의 자금을 받아 포항제철, 고속도로 건설 등 경제 발전에 투입하여 대한민국의 경제 성장을 이끌었다. 이는 명분보다 실리를 추구한 결과이다.

5.3. 다른 국가들의 원조금 낭비 사례
필리핀, 태국, 미얀마, 베트남 등 다른 국가들은 일본으로부터 받은 원조금을 정치 자금이나 개인적인 용도로 낭비하여 경제 발전에 실패했다.

5.4. 민주화 세력의 경제 정책 실패
김영삼, 김대중, 노무현, 이명박, 박근혜 정부로 이어지는 민주화 세력의 집권 이후 대한민국 경제는 내리막길을 걸었다. 이들은 국가 부채를 증가시키고 경제를 위기에 빠뜨렸다.

5.5. 미국 선거 제도의 시사점
미국은 간접 선거 제도를 통해 선거 비용을 절감하고 효율적인 국정 운영을 한다. 이는 대한민국에 시사하는 바가 크다.

5.6. 한미약품 사례를 통한 자본주의의 문제점 지적
한미약품 임 회장이 10조 원의 이득을 얻었음에도 직원들에게는 1,100억 원(전체 이득의 100분의 1)만 분배한 사례는 자본주의의 불균형을 보여준다. 허경영 선생은 이러한 이득의 상당 부분을 국가가 환수하여 국민에게 돌려주어야 한다고 주장한다.

제6장: 허경영 선생의 경제 철학과 정책 제안

6.1. 양적 완화의 필요성
허경영 선생은 양적 완화를 통해 화폐를 발행하여 국민의 부채를 상환하고, 물가 상승보다 이자 부담 경감이 국민에게 더 큰 이익을 가져다줄 것이라고 강조한다. 미국과 일본은 양적 완화를 통해 경제를 활성화하고 있다.

6.2. 교육감 및 지자체장 선거 제도 폐지
교육감 및 지자체장 선거 제도를 폐지하고 임명직으로 전환하여 국가 행정의 효율성을 높여야 한다.

6.3. 금융실명제 및 부동산실명제 폐지
금융실명제와 부동산실명제는 자금의 해외 유출을 초래하고 국민의 근로 의욕을 저하시킨다. 일본, 홍콩, 스위스, 미국 등 금융실명제를 시행하지 않는 국가들은 자금이 유입되어 경제가 활성화된다.

6.4. 개인 소유 돈의 상한선 설정
개인의 재산에 상한선을 두어 일정 금액 이상은 국가가 세금으로 환수하여 국민에게 재분배해야 한다. 이는 부의 편중을 막고 중산층을 육성하는 데 기여할 것이다.

6.5. 계수 경제학 비판과 상수 경제학 제안
허경영 선생은 1+1=2와 같은 계수(변수) 중심의 경제학은 현실을 제대로 반영하지 못한다고 비판한다. 대신 1+1=1과 같은 상수(불변) 중심의 경제학을 통해 부의 축적과 분배의 균형을 이루어야 한다고 주장한다. 이는 재벌의 자본 축적을 조절하고 국민 복지에 기여하는 방식이다.

6.6. 전 세계 부의 불균형 문제 지적
현재 전 세계 부의 90%를 5%의 인구가 소유하고 있으며, 이는 더욱 심화될 것이다. 이러한 자본의 노예 상태를 해결해야 한다.

6.7. 국방부 및 문교부 예산의 비효율성 지적
국방부 예산 37조 원, 문교부 예산 35조 원이 사용되지만, 누리 과정 예산 부족으로 직장 여성들이 불안해하고 출산율이 저하되는 현실은 예산 배분의 비효율성을 보여준다.

6.8. 출산 장려 정책 제안
허경영 선생은 대통령이 되면 10년 전부터 출산한 여성들에게 자녀 1인당 3,000만 원을 소급하여 지급할 것을 약속한다.

6.9. 교도소 개혁 및 재벌 벌금형 도입
살인범 등 강력범을 제외한 경제 사범은 교도소에 수감하는 대신 벌금형을 부과하여 국가 재정을 확충하고 교도소 운영 비용을 절감해야 한다. 재벌에게는 벌금을 통해 재산을 조절하고 국민에게 재분배해야 한다.

제7장: 과거사 문제 해결과 국가 위상 제고

7.1. 월남전 참전 용사 및 징용자, 위안부 보상
월남전 참전 용사에게는 일시불 5억 원과 월 300만 원을 지급하고, 징용자와 위안부 피해자에게도 충분한 보상을 국가 재정으로 지급해야 한다. 이는 일본에 추가적인 배상을 요구하기보다 국가가 책임지고 해결해야 할 문제이다.

7.2. 위안부 문제에 대한 비판적 시각
위안부 문제를 지속적으로 제기하는 것은 대한민국의 국격을 떨어뜨리고 민족의 자존심을 훼손하는 행위이다. 이미 일본으로부터 받은 8억 달러에 위안부 보상금이 포함되어 있으므로, 추가적인 요구는 불필요하다.

7.3. 일본인의 국민성과 교훈
일본인은 약속을 지키고 고소를 적게 하는 국민성을 가지고 있다. 이는 대한민국이 본받아야 할 점이다.

7.4. 국가 발전 단계별 국민 의식 수준
1만 불 시대: 노동력(Manpower)

2만 불 시대: 기술력(Technology)

3만 불 시대: 예절(Etiquette)

4만 불 시대: 매너(Manner)

5만 불 시대: 신뢰(Trust)

대한민국은 아직 3만 불 시대의 예절과 4만 불 시대의 매너 수준에 도달하지 못했다. 국민 의식 수준 향상이 국가 발전에 필수적이다.

제8장: 대한민국의 총체적 부채 현황

8.1. 국가 부채의 심각성
대한민국의 총 부채는 가계 부채 1,300조 원, 지자체 부채 100조 원, 공기업 부채 300조 원, 국가 외채 5,000조 원을 합하여 총 6,700조 원에 달한다. 이는 GDP의 18배에 해당하는 엄청난 규모이다.

세계 경제의 흐름과 허경영의 중산주의 경제론

세계 경제는 케인스의 거시 경제와 미시 경제를 오가며 변화해왔습니다. IMF 외환 위기 이후 시장 경제 체제로 전환되었으나, 현재는 다시 위기에 직면해 있습니다. 물가는 하락하고 돈의 가치는 상승하는 디플레이션과, 물가는 상승하고 돈의 가치는 하락하는 인플레이션, 그리고 물가 상승과 경기 침체가 동시에 발생하는 스태그플레이션, 농산물 가격 상승과 경기 침체가 동반되는 애그플레이션 등 다양한 경제 현상이 나타나고 있습니다.

일본은 최근 몇 년간 인플레이션을 유도하여 엔화 가치를 하락시키고 수출을 증대시키는 데 성공했습니다. 이는 일본 수상이 은행에 지시하여 막대한 양의 돈을 발행하고, 이를 국민에게 분배함으로써 이루어졌습니다. 반면 한국 정치인들은 시장 경제에만 의존하여 IMF와 같은 위기를 초래했습니다.

허경영은 일본의 양적 완화 정책을 긍정적으로 평가하며, 한국도 과감한 인플레이션 정책을 통해 경제 위기를 극복해야 한다고 주장합니다. 구체적으로 1500조 원의 화폐를 발행하여 서민 가계 부채를 100% 상환하고, 모든 부채를 제로로 만들어 은행 이자 부담을 없애야 한다고 말합니다. 이는 물가 상승보다 이자 부담 경감이 서민들에게 훨씬 큰 이익을 가져다줄 것이라는 판단에 근거합니다.

허경영의 중산주의 경제는 케인스의 거시 경제나 하이에크의 미시 경제와는 다른 접근 방식을 취합니다. 이는 소비자를 왕으로 하는 경제 체제로, 모든 국민을 중산층으로 만들고자 하는 목표를 가지고 있습니다.

  1. 국가 예산 낭비와 부정부패의 실태
    허경영은 현재 한국 사회에 만연한 국가 예산 낭비와 부정부패를 강하게 비판합니다.

버스 회사 비리: 서울 시내버스 회사들은 매년 3200억 원의 정부 지원금을 받지만, 임원들의 고액 연봉(연 5억 5천만 원)과 채용 비리로 인해 적자가 발생합니다. 임원들의 임금만 제외하면 적자가 아니며, 이들은 대부분 사장의 가족이나 권력과 연관된 인물들입니다. 버스 운전기사는 월 350만 원을 받기 위해 억대의 뇌물을 줘야 하는 현실입니다.

정당 국고 보조금: 새누리당 380억 원, 새정치민주연합 360억 원, 통합민주당 61억 원, 정의당 30억 원 등 정당에 매년 총 803억 원의 국고 보조금이 지급됩니다. 허경영은 당원들의 당비로 운영되어야 할 정당이 국가 예산을 받는 것은 부당하다고 지적합니다.

시민 단체 지원금: 정부 말을 잘 듣는 시민 단체에도 막대한 지원금이 지급되어, 시민 단체의 본래 역할인 국가 견제가 불가능해집니다.

국회의원 및 지자체 예산 낭비: 국회의원 300명이 보좌관 포함 연간 약 9000억 원, 지자체 요인들이 연간 1조 3000억 원의 월급을 가져갑니다. 허경영은 국회의원과 지자체 요인들이 무보수로 일하고 후원금으로 보좌관 월급을 지급해야 한다고 주장합니다.

공무원의 예산 소진: 공무원들은 예산을 절약하면 좌천되기 때문에, 연말에 멀쩡한 도로를 뜯어내거나 회식을 하는 등 예산을 억지로 소진하는 행태를 보입니다.

허경영은 이러한 낭비되는 예산(연간 약 250조 원)을 절감하고, 화폐 발행을 통해 마련한 자금으로 국민들에게 돌려주어야 한다고 강조합니다.

  1. 한국 경제 위기의 원인과 해결 방안
    허경영은 한국 경제가 위기에 처한 근본적인 원인을 과거 정부의 정책 실패와 부정부패에서 찾습니다.

관치 경제와 IMF: 김영삼 정부의 금융실명제와 중앙청 철거는 한국 경제에 큰 타격을 주었으며, 김대중, 노무현 정부의 카드 활성화 정책은 가계 부채를 급증시켰습니다.

민주화 세력의 부정부패: 민주화 세력이 정권을 잡으면서 수많은 인사가 공기업 및 정부 투자 기관에 포진하여 국가 외채를 증가시키고 부정부패를 저질렀습니다.

금융 실명제의 폐해: 금융 실명제는 자식들이 부모의 재산을 알게 하여 상속 분쟁을 유발하고, 자수성가하려는 의지를 꺾으며, 해외로 자금이 유출되는 원인이 됩니다. 일본은 금융 실명제가 없어 자금이 해외로 유출되지 않고 국내에 머무릅니다.

부동산 실명제의 폐해: 부동산 실명제 또한 경제에 부정적인 영향을 미칩니다.

허경영은 이러한 문제들을 해결하기 위해 다음과 같은 방안을 제시합니다.

양적 완화: 일본과 미국처럼 화폐를 발행하여 가계 부채를 상환하고 경제를 활성화해야 합니다.

선거 제도 개혁: 교육감, 농협 조합장, 지자체 단체장 선거 제도를 폐지하고 임명직으로 전환하여 불필요한 선거 비용을 절감하고 효율성을 높여야 합니다.

재벌 개혁: 재벌들의 과도한 부의 축적을 막기 위해 개인 소유 돈의 상한선을 설정하고, 일정 금액 이상은 세금으로 환수하여 국민에게 돌려주어야 합니다.

교도소 개혁: 살인범, 강력범을 제외한 경제 사범 등은 벌금형으로 대체하고, 벌금을 통해 국가 재정을 확충해야 합니다.

출산 장려 정책: 출산율을 높이기 위해 아이 한 명당 3000만 원을 지급하고, 10년 전부터 아이를 낳은 사람들에게도 소급 적용하여 지급해야 합니다.

  1. 박정희 대통령의 실리 외교와 경제 발전
    허경영은 박정희 대통령의 실리 외교와 경제 발전 노력을 높이 평가합니다.

한일회담과 경제 개발: 박정희 대통령은 일본으로부터 8억 달러(6억 달러 무상 원조, 2억 달러 장기 차관)를 받아내어 포항제철, 고속도로 건설 등 경제 발전에 투입했습니다. 이는 당시 필리핀, 태국, 미얀마, 베트남 등 다른 나라들이 받은 원조를 정치 자금으로 탕진한 것과 대조적입니다.

청렴한 자금 운용: 박정희 대통령은 8억 달러를 개인적으로 유용하거나 관료들의 청사 건설 등에 사용하지 않고, 오직 국가 경제 발전에만 사용했습니다. 그 결과 한국은 당시 68달러에 불과했던 1인당 국민소득을 크게 끌어올릴 수 있었습니다.

명분보다 실리: 박정희 대통령은 명분보다는 실리를 추구하여 국가의 이익을 극대화했습니다. 반면 김영삼 대통령은 금융 실명제와 중앙청 철거 등 명분만을 내세워 경제를 어렵게 만들었습니다.

  1. 한국 사회의 문제점과 국민 의식 개혁
    허경영은 한국 사회의 여러 문제점을 지적하며 국민 의식 개혁의 필요성을 강조합니다.

위안부 문제: 위안부 문제는 국가가 8억 달러를 받고 포괄적으로 해결했음에도 불구하고, 계속해서 일본에 추가 배상을 요구하는 것은 국가의 위신을 떨어뜨리는 행위라고 비판합니다. 허경영은 국가가 자체적으로 위안부 및 징용 피해자들에게 충분한 보상을 해야 한다고 주장합니다.

국민 의식 수준: 한국 국민은 일본인과 비교했을 때, 약속을 지키지 않고, 바가지요금을 씌우는 등 에티켓과 신뢰가 부족하다고 지적합니다. 경제 발전 단계에서 1만 불은 노동력, 2만 불은 기술력, 3만 불은 에티켓, 4만 불은 매너, 5만 불은 신뢰가 필요하다고 설명하며, 한국은 아직 에티켓과 매너 수준에 도달하지 못했다고 말합니다.

국가 부채 심각성: 한국의 가계 부채 1300조 원, 지자체 부채 100조 원, 공기업 부채 300조 원, 국가 외채 5000조 원을 합하면 총 6700조 원에 달하며, 이는 GDP의 18배에 이르는 심각한 수준입니다.

허경영은 이러한 문제들을 해결하고 한국을 선진국으로 만들기 위해서는 국민 개개인의 의식 수준 향상과 함께, 국가 예산의 효율적인 운용, 그리고 과감한 경제 정책 개혁이 필요하다고 역설합니다.

  1. 허경영의 경제 철학: 중산주의와 상수 경제
    허경영은 자신의 경제 철학을 ‘중산주의’와 ‘상수 경제’로 설명합니다.

중산주의: 케인스의 거시 경제와 하이에크의 미시 경제의 장점을 결합한 것으로, 소비자를 왕으로 하여 모든 국민을 중산층으로 만들고자 하는 경제 체제입니다. 이는 재벌만을 위한 자본주의와는 다릅니다.

상수 경제: 기존 경제학자들이 1+1=2와 같은 ‘계수’로 경제를 보는 반면, 허경영은 1+1=1과 같은 ‘상수’로 경제를 봅니다. 이는 개인이 아무리 많은 돈을 벌어도 국가에 기여하고 직원들에게 복지를 제공함으로써, 개인의 부는 크게 변동하지 않으면서도 사회 전체의 부가 증진되는 것을 의미합니다.

부의 재분배: 재벌들이 벌어들인 막대한 이익의 일부를 세금이나 직원 복지 형태로 사회에 환원하여 부의 편중을 막고, 모든 국민이 고르게 잘 살 수 있도록 해야 합니다. 현재 전 세계 부의 90%를 5%의 인구가 소유하고 있으며, 이는 자본의 노예를 양산하는 칼 마르크스의 경고와 일치합니다. 상수 경제는 이러한 부의 불균형을 완만하게 해소하는 역할을 합니다.

오행과 근본수: 허경영은 천부경의 태극 사상과 오행을 경제에 접목하여, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5와 같은 근본수를 통해 국가 간의 관계와 경제 정책 방향을 결정해야 한다고 주장합니다. 반면 6, 7, 8, 9, 10과 같은 허수에 매달리는 것은 잘못된 경제 정책으로 이어진다고 비판합니다.

허경영은 자신의 이러한 경제 철학을 통해 한국 경제를 바로잡고, 세계 경제를 선도할 수 있다.

이 튜토리얼은 허경영 강연을 통해 케인스의 거시경제, 하이에크의 미시경제, 그리고 허경영의 중산주의 경제를 비교하고, 현재 한국 경제의 문제점과 해결책을 제시합니다.

한일 국교 정상화: 일본으로부터 8억 달러 (유상 2억, 무상 3억, 차관 3억)를 받아 경제 개발에 활용.
목표: 경제 개발 자금 확보.
결과: 포항제철, 경부고속도로 건설 등 경제 성장 기반 마련.
다른 국가와의 비교: 필리핀, 태국 등 다른 아시아 국가들도 일본으로부터 자금을 받았으나, 정치 자금으로 낭비하여 경제 성장에 실패.
