[[File:Falgsc.png]] End-Goal [[File:Landian_Accelerationism.png]]
The goal of Braun Spencer Model is to advance the dialectic towards an economic system in which (1) the necessity of manual and intellecutal labor is diminished (post-work) and (2) resources become so cheap that poverty does not exist (post-scarcity). By freeing up time for the vast majority of citizens, humans may liberally undertake spiritual,  philosophical,  artistic,  scientific, and  hedonistic pursuits. Such a society will help humanity evolve into something never thought possible. He sees the best way to attain this society is through regulated  markets, with the aim of maximizing  creative destruction and  consumption levels—both the primary sources of economic growth.

[[File:Indust.png]] Industrial Policy [[File:Dengf.png]] [[File:Hamiltonianism.png]]
Braun Spencer Model believes the United States should pursue industrial policy. In other words, the State should spur growth, development, and innovation in the American economy's commanding heights: Industries which employ large numbers of people, ease domestic trade, have positive spillover effects, and are essential to national security. (Examples include the military, raw materials,  heavy manufacturing, public utilities, natural resources, and technology). Measures Braun Spencer Model espouses include:
 * [[File:Corp.png]] Corporate welfare to increase exports and domestic production.
 * Contracts
 * Mandates
 * State consumption
 * Subsidy-rewards
 * [[File:Statesoc.png]] Public research for innovative activities not bound by short-term market whims.
 * State-guided infrastructure projects (e.g., roads, bridges, buildings).
 * And in some cases [[File:Protect.png]] tariffs to eliminate foreign competition, drive up demand for domestic goods, and thus boost profits.

[[File:Corp.png]] Big Business [[File:Corp.png]]
According to Braun Spencer Model, big corporations, monopolies, and cartels are not only inevitable, but a net positive if utilized for the greater good. As Matt Bruenig,  Robert Atkinson, and  Micahel Lind demonstrate, if social, economic, and technological progress is the end-goal, big firms should be the priority since they generate more wealth, pay workers better, are reliable sources of creative destruction, and permit economies of scale. The Goverment should work with and back big businesses to advance human progress (even if at the expense of the often  conservative  peti-bourgeois). Anti-trust laws under Braun Spencer Model would only ever be applied when consumer welfare is undermined. Any other concern with big business can be addressed through regulations and  labor unions.

[[File:LibSyndieSam.png]] Labor Unions [[File:Yellow_Unionism.png]]
Under Braun Spencer Model, labor unions would play a significant role in the economy. Collective bargaining, even if it results in involuntary unemployment, is necessary to balance out employer power over labor markets while sustaining a thriving middle class. (The latter being necessary for high consumption levels.) Measures should be taken to strengthen labor unions, including penalties for employers who try to stop workers from organizing.

[[File:Keynes.png]] Full Employment [[File:EconInflate.png]]
An increasingly important aspect of Braun Spencer Model is the belief in abolishing all involuntary unemployment. That is to say all unemployment that is a consequence of a significant gap between wages and commodity prices. This does not include frictional unemployment (e.g., swiching jobs) or voluntary unemployment (i.e., collective bargaining consequences and refusing to work), as these fall withint the natural rate. Ways we can achieve full employment are:
 * [[File:Corp.png]] Subsidizing and [[File:Protect.png]] protecting industries which generate large numbers of good paying jobs (e.g., manufacturing).
 * Expansive federal public works schemes to improve infrastrcture and provide relief to those who lost jobs to automation.
