But, John, A+B is not a hypothesis but an analytical
argument in support of a hypothesis, from the time
Douglas first presented it *Credit-Power and
Democracy.*
It also seems to me that you are proposing two
different things here: "testing it against reality"
and testing it by "inductive scientific reasoning."
"It" being the underlying hypothesis to A + B.
For the record, please state what you think that
underlying hypothesis might be.

Greetings for 2007.
Might I suggest that Social Credit ceased to be a
science before the 1930's, whenever Douglas'
supporters started trying to "prove" the hypothesis
(A+B) instead of testing it against reality, along the
lines this correspondence has been heading and others.
All that is necessary to remedy the situation is to
take it in its true context, as a scientific model,
and test it (and its orthodox opposite) by inductive
scientific reasoning.
But, of course, those with vested interests in the
present financial racket will do their utmost to
prevent this happening, won't they?
I agree that this forum is fulfilling its aim of
"studying the works of Douglas", but I believe it has
no useful function whatever in promoting his message
to others. Again, I agree that the later is not its
function, but I think others should also ber aware of
that.
