Envision a world without poverty or economic oppression — a place where humankind can attain its potential amidst the weightlessness of true freedom. Imagine the United States, and the rest of the world, without hunger or homelessness where educated societies enjoy all the fruits of their labor. In such a society it would not be necessary to hand over your hard-earned dollars to the government in payment of ever-increasing taxes. Such a vision is no doubt utopian, but Jacques Jaikaran introduces us to a radical economic reorganization of what is now a debt culture and proposes a monetary revolution the results of which would virtually eliminate debt as we know it.

    Debt Virus deals with the anatomy and physiology of money, the lifeblood of commerce and industry and hence the economy. Jaikaran points out a monetary error at the root of our cyclical economic problems and prescribes a cure that promises to benefit all mankind.

Reviews

    ". . . intriguing and penetrating as it questions the traditional role of money in our economy. [Jaikaran's book] challenges orthodox methods of money management in our economy and offers a convincing alternative to the status quo. . . provocative reading even for the layperson."

Dr. Ashton I. Veramallay,
Professor of Economics,
Indiana University East

   "There is no question in my mind but that the issue must be seriously considered by every American as well as people from other countries in this world. . . [Jaikaran] has observed a phenomenon that almost everyone else seems to be blind to."

Gerald M. McIntosh,
Executive Vice President,

About The Author

    JACQUES JAIKARAN was born in Guyana where only elementary education was free. In order to pay to go to high school, he became a plantation laborer even before his teen years. Following high school he bought a one-way ticket from South America to England. He won a scholarship to medical school, continuing his studies in the United States where he ultimately became a plastic surgeon. While serving on a board of directors of a Texas bank, Jaikaran began to study the monetary systems of the United State and other countries. Jaikaran's urgent concerns for the future have led him to organize Global Monetary Consultants, Inc., an organization dedicated to the dissemination of information and political action toward his ideal of a debt-free society.

    The Cost-Effective Organization addresses two related subjects: how to conduct a thorough analysis of an organization to identify and eliminate unnecessary expenses and how to ensure that those expenses don't creep back into the organization's budget, once it has gone through the difficult and painful process of cost reduction.

    Hickel discusses the need for vigilant management and the cooperation of all employees of a company during all phases of the business cycle. Human factors are important in the business cycle since, when times are good, there is a tendency to overspend, and when times are bad, there is a tendency to pull back. The negative effects of these cycles on the quality and timeliness of the work soon becomes intolerable to managers, employees, and most important, to customers. The success of such a program leads to higher pay and greater job satisfaction for everyone in the company.

    ". . . in an era when customer demands and competitive pressures have never been greater, operating in a cost-effective manner has become more critical than ever before.
