#38. April 4, 2020. A Story Waiting to Pierce Us: Economic Possibilities for Our Children with Kristin Eggen from Norway. Is the Covid-19 pandemic and economic crisis an opportunity to dream a new dream and an economic future based on love? Where nature will remind us that cooperation is a fundamental rule of our collective flourishing? In the end, LOVE works. Oslo (Norway)-based high school teacher Kristin Eggen joins me today to explore my ideas about how the world might get through this economic pandemic that has gripped the world, the outcome of a coronavirus (Covid-19) that has paralyzed our lives. Kristin teaches law, religion and philosophy to the next generation of our leaders. We explore the possible options for how nations can adopt new monetary and economic systems that would provide sufficient income for a good life. Can we reboot the global economic hard drive to eliminate all debt and align money creation with well-being and even love?  Is this economic crisis the window we have long been waiting for to test new monetary systems whether in Canada, Norway, Singapore or the USA?
