Novel Economic and Judicial Thoughts

When you look through the media and see what they're pushing, it becomes easy to push the dinner plate away from the table. The autotrons are competing in a system as it collapses - how do we reframe the model to reward cooperation within the terms of the competition. The source of all current funding is imaginary. Real wealth develops from our spiritual commitment to ourselves first and then each other. Corporate structure gets in the way and guides many fertile minds into meat-grinder pathways.

Time to construct a new system. We need a multi-level contract agreement that exchanges true value for another value chosen from a panorama of choices. First portion of the contract would be getting the self clear. Getting clear before expanding outward is necessary for a sovereign exchange. Emergent systems tend to be constrained by previously imposed order. Logically, an individuals should not have to become a business entity in order to be party to an agreement. All agreements should be between two real people.

Once set - the individual is next open to decide which scale to operate on. The exchange of time is dependent on an expertise factor - we want to share knowledge while rewarding the individual for a value creating work ethic. The individual should not have to provide capital - that is what the community is for. The sovereign individual is thus free to operate within the limits of the contract.

Each community can choose how it functions to support the people of that community. The Mondragon Cooperative model from the basque region of Spain has served me well as a conceptual tool - time to look toward creating cooperative values with exchange done between concenting individuals operating on equivalent levels of scale.
