This white paper challenges the conventional economic doctrine that prioritizes inflation control over the provisioning of life’s essential needs. By integrating insights from Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) and Life-Value Onto-Axiology (LVOA), we argue that the dominant fiscal and monetary policies are structured not around the well-being of people or ecosystems, but around the protection of capital. Through a critique of neoliberal assumptions and an exploration of sovereign spending capacity, this paper reframes inflation not as a threat to suppress, but as a constraint to be managed in service of life coherence. We offer a new framework for evaluating economic success, grounded in human dignity, ecological sustainability, and systemic provisioning sufficiency. The goal is a paradigm shift — from scarcity-based governance to regenerative sufficiency grounded in the ethical primacy of life.
