A new form of Governance
Government and Governance in a democracy or the American-style Republic are meant to be about the People governed by the People.
What we instead have is a form of government where people and corporates with money get to pay to play and get the government to do what they want rather than the voters. What is crippling in this equation is both the left and the right are willing to allow this subversive practice to cripple, pervert and manipulate the laws against the will of the people. Add to this equation the special interest groups that demand the latest fad, governments, and corporate end up in a death spiral that seems suicidal, yet planned at the same time.
Governments have too much power.
They are made up of too many dependent institutions with their fingers in pies they have no need to be in. People have realized that they could vote for what they could get, (welfare), and while voting that way the power of government was taken away from the people and now rests in the hands of interested groups.
What could a new Society look like?
What would a new economy and government look like with the following conditions?
Barter is allowed.
People may barter time and goods from person to person.
People are encouraged to use the digital currency on their phones, but they don't have to.
There is only a digital currency.
There is no physical currency.
The currency is a stablecoin based on calories.
One coin or credit is able to purchase 100 calories from a Boarder Store.
It is stored on your phone that only you can operate.
===Transactions are done phone to phone.
Each transaction has a 2% fee.
Pay some 100 credits, they get 98 and the government gets 2. This is the only tax.
A People Currecny
The government does not control the currency, it is set up bench marked to calories. 1 credit equals 100 calories at the government store.
