Guide US On The Right Path By: Abron S. Toure Price:
$10.95
Quantity in Basket: none
ISBN: 978-1-60862-401-0 Edition: Paperback, 120 Pages Publication Date: June 4, 2012 | Guides US on the Right Path is a compilation of articles.
Put together in book form for the purpose of
demonstrating the author’s consistent social and
political leanings over a period of time. The nuances of
each piece in this context suggest a bit of the
prophetic nature of the writings. The significance is
even more noteworthy because of the contemporary
implications. To this extent the author has strong
convictions and is happy to stand behind the validity of
all chapters.
There is an additional inference. A highlighted belief,
we as individual and the United States of America as a
country go through critical points in development and
that now as a people and a country we live in such a
time. As in all cases we hope for the best knowing
things are not perfect. The general credo of the book
describes the path traveled has a heavy dependency on a
lofty interpretation of grace and the significant role
it plays in the overall guidance of all things.
Interesting enough Chapter 17, “The Vedic Eight” weighed
heavily inspiring the assembling of the collection. As
much as the underlying points of this section have merit
the chapter now holds the weakest place in regards to
the confidence level about the accuracy of the theme
from a prophetic standpoint. Please take time to read
these articles and I pray the true meaning finds its
way into your heart.

“An Enormous, Immensely Complicated Intervention” Price:
$14.95
Quantity in Basket: none
ISBN: 978-1-59824-833-3 Edition: Paperback, 256 Pages Publication Date: August 26, 2008 | Groundfish, The New England Fishery Management Council, and the World Fisheries Crisis
By: Spencer Apollonio and Jacob J. Dykstra
This book reviews the fisheries of New England – “the
poster child of mismanagement” – since 1977. It finds
that many of the explanations offered for the New
England problems are incorrect or irrelevant or
counterproductive. It suggests that the problems lie in
two general categories: first, the legislative and
administrative context of management; and second and
more serious, fundamental issues concerning fishing
technologies, and lack of effective effort control
strategies and an operational hypothesis of the dynamics
of marine ecosystems. These latter issues are not
confined to New England, but are inherent in most marine
fisheries wherever they may be found. The book suggests
a new concept for benign and selective fishing
technologies, and it recommends a thorough review and
analysis of the efficacy of effort control concepts.
It proposes a management strategy based upon the
hierarchical concept of ecosystems that could eliminate
many of the current problems of management. |

Save Your Financial Self Avoid Financial Mistakes By: Kirk Allen Price:
$10.95
Quantity in Basket: none
ISBN: 978-1-59824-447-2 Edition: Paperback, 124 Pages Publication Date: February 20, 2007 Other Editions: Adobe Ebook (read on computer only) | The ideas formulated in this book were born from
inquisitive students in my high school business classes
over the many years I’ve taught. Some asked simple
questions like, “How do I save money on groceries?”
While other questions required a bit more elaboration;
“How do I invest my money so that it will grow for my
retirement?” It was my pleasure to aid my students in
their effort to acquire information for a prosperous and
plentiful future.
The first step to financial success starts with a
four-letter word. SAVE! What word were you thinking of?
Everyone needs to SAVE! Financial problems or issues do
not discriminate. Minorities, single parents, females
and the less educated save the least. Now, envision if
your situation is the four headed monster; a single,
minority, female that’s not well educated. Life can be
very hard for a person in this situation.
Please do what is necessary to improve your life. Choose
substance over style. Style changes, however, substance
remains. Substantive materials or substantive
individuals have a longer shelf life and perhaps it may
improve your life situation. If you haven’t started
saving, what are you waiting for?

The Role and Obligations of Accountants in the Development of Nigeria Chike C. Udemezue, Ph.D. Price:
$10.95
Quantity in Basket: none
ISBN: 978-1-59824-424-3 Edition: Paperback, 118 Pages Publication Date: December 31, 2006 Other Editions: Adobe Ebook (read on computer only) | This book addresses the challenges that influence the
way members of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
Nigeria organize themselves and what guides their work.
Occupational interests, societal needs, the dictates of
regulatory frameworks, and the constraints of the
International Federation of Accountants affect the
professional choices of any accountant, but the
perception of Nigeria’s accountants was that personal
values had a greater influence on their attitudes toward
their work than the desire for job satisfaction. The
theme that emerged from the qualitative data was that
family, ethnic, religious, and tribal ties were often
more important to this group than professional
activities.
Nigerian accountants, then, experience different
problems and face different challenges from those in the
developed economies of Europe, United Kingdom countries,
North and South America, and Asia. This study will
present observations and recommendations that will
impact the social change processes of Nigeria and other
developing countries as they move toward their national
and economic development goals.

Life’s journey isn’t easy to travel and the obstacles
can feel insurmountable. Along the way we need to make
decisions regarding business, employment, savings,
education, and family.
As I grew older throughout the years, my experiences
were quite challenging and as I look back over my life
now, I wish that someone had guided me through some of
it. In retrospect, many of the decisions that I made
earlier in life were based on inadequate or incorrect
information. Decisions that affected my career, family,
and money could have had very different results if only
I knew then what I know now.
Many instructors find our Real Biz Basics InfoGuides
very helpful as tools for classroom discussion. If
you’re mentoring adults or youth groups, you’ll want to

Equal Shares Income Plan Desirable Whole Economics By: Robert V. Achen Price:
$8.95
Quantity in Basket: none
ISBN: 1-59824-092-7 Edition: Paperback, 116 Pages Publication Date: November 2005 Other Editions: Adobe Ebook | Equal Shares Income Plan (ESIP) describes how if you
made less than $85,226 as a qualifying household last
year, you are not getting your fair equal share of
national income, which you deserve as a citizen of the
United States of America.
The Equal Shares Income Plan is founded on a new
theoretical economic philosophy called Desirable Whole
Economics (DWE). DWE is contrasted with the outdated
Scarcity Economics (SE) theory which has prevailed in
the western world for the past 300 years. SE theory is
described as personal profit making theory, the “dog eat
dog”, “I’ll take it out of your mouth and put it in my
mouth,” selfish economics that breeds contempt on the
part of a rich few for the overwhelming majority of poor
people.
Desirable Whole Economics (DWE) explains why the
personal profit making system (SE) must inevitably bring
about inequality in income and wealth, and anti
democratic social practices. Indeed, it explains why in
the long run the personal profit making system must come
to an end. This book also introduces the Stooper family
and their system of family values, as a basis for
national planning and policy making.
DWE emphasizes the importance of each individual to
society. In DWE the janitor at the Carlyle Hotel is as
important as the president of the United States.

What’s the Difference Between Bankers and Counterfeiters? By: William F. Hixson Price:
$17.95
Quantity in Basket: none
ISBN: 1-59824-060-9 Edition: Paperback, 320 Pages Publication Date: September 30, 2005 Other Editions: Adobe Ebook (read on computer only) | What’s the Difference Between Bankers and Counterfeiters?
Answer #1: Very little difference. The principal business
of counterfeiters and bankers alike is the creation of
money out of bits of paper and ink.
Answer #2: Great big difference. Bankers create enormous
amounts of money and prosper; counterfeiters create only
piddling amounts of money and go to prison.
What's wrong with this scenario is not that money creation
by counterfeiters is outlawed but that money creation by
bankers is not. The creation of money is a proper
function not of individuals or private corporations but
of government.
Above all what needs to be stopped is the current
practice of the government letting bankers create money,
borrowing it from them, and paying them interest on it,
instead of the government creating interest-free money
for itself. That’s idiotic.
Read more about it in this revealing book.

A Matter Of Interest By: William F. Hixson Price:
$17.95
Quantity in Basket: none
ISBN: 1-59824-037-4 Edition: Paperback, 304 Pages Publication Date: June 30, 2005 Other Editions: Adobe Ebook (read on computer only) | Reexamining Money, Debt, and Real Economic Growth
William Hixson’s A Matter of Interest is a good example
of the important contribution that an independent scholar
can make to a subject where the professionals have
become dependent on an orthodoxy which has been highly
insensitive to criticism. Hixson’s position is that the
dynamics of debt creates a strong tendency for an
increasing burden on a society which looks as if it can
only be corrected by occasional catastrophe. There is
much historical evidence to support this thesis. It
represents an important tradition in economics, going
back to Henry Simons and to Irving Fisher, which has
been strangely neglected by the profession. Professional
economists will find some things in this book with which
they will disagree, but the general thesis presents a
very important challenge to them, and this is a work
that should be taken very seriously.
Kenneth E. Boulding
Distinguished Professor of Economics
University of Colorado at Boulder
In A Matter of Interest William Hixson presents a very
interesting analysis of our economic systems. Hixson’s
analysis is highly original, well written, and
comprehensible even for readers not well versed in
economics. His frequent references to the great thinkers
in economics give the argument a lot of depth.

Triumph Of The Bankers By: William F. Hixson Price:
$16.95
Quantity in Basket: none
ISBN: 1-932701-91-5 Edition: Paperback, 209 Pages Publication Date: February 28, 2005 Other Editions: Adobe Ebook (read on computer only) | Money and Banking in the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Centuries
“...the government could have been debt free long before
1914, could have saved billions of dollars in interest,
and could have had billions remaining for public
improvements or for reductions in taxes. But the bankers
triumphed over common sense and the public interest: banks
created money apace, and the government created none. A
more inane and shameful abnegation of government power
is hardly imaginable.”
William F. Hixson
This book discusses crucial monetary events in Colonial
America, the United States, and Great Britain over the
period 1690 to 1914. It explains some general
characteristics of money and its function, the
impracticality and undesirability of a gold or silver
standard, and how a change in the quantity of money
affects the total output of an economy and the level of
prices of goods and services. It argues that by 1914
bankers had virtually complete control of the
money-creation process and that this was largely the
cause of the cataclysm of 1929 and the ensuing years. It
contends that the system is still in effect.
Journal of Economic Literature
Vol.32, No. 1, March 1994
Anyone who seeks to understand “the preposterous
financial system” which evolved after 1690 cannot do
better than to start here. Hixson interweaves economic
history with evaluations of theories of the leading
economists starting with Adam Smith... The chapters on
the financing of the American Revolution and the Civil
War are particularly fascinating.
