For those who have an interest in my work The new book is available in most places you can get ebooks, except Amazon. Apple is still pending. makingmoneyreal.org/buy/ The print version takes a little longer to arrive and is a little dearer.

A book cover, dark green.
Front: Title: The Dice are ALWAYS Loaded. Author: BJ Chippindale. An Image of a part of the globe forms the lower 1/5 of the cover. Europe and the Mediterranean are recognizable. Casino dice are impacting the planet, showing snake-eyes.

Back: Dark Green, the same snake-eyed dice at the top of the page. Text that reads.
"We can throw the moneylenders from the temple, remove the wealthy by bloody revolution, and occupy Wall Street.

It isnâ€™t enough!

Our poverty, environmental destruction, greed, slavery, and war return relentlessly. Our ownerâ€™s unlimited accumulation of wealth and automation of theft continues unabated.

Our governments are inexorably owned by power-hungry, megalomaniacal, amoral <bleep>s.

We are very consistent. Our money evolved as debt with interest, unchanging through every rise and collapse of civilization, loading the dice. The real definition of money, the Mahinist definition, is based on work that obeys the laws of physics; debt is not work. Debt is an idea.

And ideas are not bound by the laws, and evolution only works if its mistakes are eliminated.

Mahinism is a new â€œismâ€ based on work; â€œMahiâ€ is the
te reo MÄori word for â€œwork.â€

Money must represent work. When it does and is limited by the laws of physics, the foundations of capitalism and fascism crumble like sandcastles in a rising tide.

While we cannot break a law of physics, we can break everything else.
The Dice Are Always Loaded explains how
it all breaks, and how it can, finally,
start working again.

We are projected to spend $268 BILLION on deportations — costing the average American taxpayer about $2,358 (according to @epi.org). But somehow we “can’t afford” to make sure hungry children can eat or ensure everyone, no matter their income, can access healthcare. Priorities.

It's coming - really - soon - now! makingmoneyreal.org/2026/05/05/t... People looked at the first edition, tagged it as another money-help book, and ignored it. This may be the most important book about a badly needed revolution you'll ever see.

"How Mahinism defines Money"

"Money (noun): A commodity that represents work that has value to society, which is accepted throughout society in exchange for every other commodity or service the society provides.

Money can be account based, the bits in a computer, but it is ALWAYS a countable commodity in the society that uses it.

For the society that creates, defines, and supports the money, it REPRESENTS work that is useful to society, but for a person having and using the money, it represents the work they exchanged with their society to obtain it.

Money is thus an anonymous form of work that is both fungible and transferable; useful to everyone and transferable to anyone.
=====
Money represents work properly when society uses it as though it IS work. If society uses it in other ways, it represents something else.

The money we currently have represents a commodity that cannot exist in the real universe. It gives us inequality, war, and corrupted governments. It demands infinite growth on our finite planet and destroys our civilization."

"Real Money represents Work Done."

"Money is thus limited by the
RADICALLY ANTI-CAPITALISTIC
Laws of Thermodynamics"

"The Laws of Thermodynamics Applied to Money"

"First Law: Energy cannot make more energy, matter cannot make more matter, work cannot make more work, MONEY CANNOT MAKE MORE MONEY. 'There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch.'

Second Law: Entropy always increases. Things always get worse. 'Rust never sleeps.' MONEY CANNOT BE USED AS A STORE OF VALUE.

----------------------
Taken together these laws that cannot be broken remove the ability of capitalists to accumulate capital. Interest on loans, capital gains, excess rent and every other tool of the owning class, are all attempts to break laws of the universe.

We never break them. We break something else, somewhere else, belonging to someone else.

It always becomes theft, often from future generations, and always increasing inequality and enabling the owning class to own our governments.

TAX! THE! RICH!"

Corruption and lack of ethical boundaries go hand in hand, even at SCOTUS.

Screenshot of a tweet from @MikeLevin (Mike Levin) on X, posted 17 hours ago, reading: "Samuel Alito's son has worked as a lawyer inside Trump's Treasury Department since early last year. The administration hid it. No public resume, no LinkedIn, no mention on the Treasury website, outdated bar listings. Four former officials confirmed it. The public was never told."

Continuation of Mike Levin's thread on X reading: "Here is why that matters. Philip Alito served as an attorney-adviser in Treasury's general counsel office, briefed on department matters across the board, while the Supreme Court took up a case in which the Treasury Department was a named defendant. The department never disclosed the connection in court. Justice Alito did not recuse. The federal recusal law is plain. A justice must step aside in any case where his impartiality might reasonably be questioned."

Continuation of Mike Levin's thread on X reading: "The federal recusal law is plain. A justice must step aside in any case where his impartiality might reasonably be questioned. That is the test. Not whether anyone can prove influence but whether a reasonable person looking at this would doubt it. A justice ruling on cases involving the very agency that employs his son fails that test on its face. And Treasury sits at the center of many upcoming issues, including the fight over Trump's $1.776 billion dollar fund to reward the January 6th rioters he pardoned. That fight could be headed to the Court too."

Continuation of Mike Levin's thread on X reading: "This is exactly why the honor system has failed. The Supreme Court is the only court in America with no enforceable code of conduct. I support withholding funding from the Court until the justices adopt a binding code with real recusal review. Congress holds the power of the purse. We should use it."
