phillip1882 Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 i think the currency we have, fiat money, that has no upper limit, is not good for the economy. it encourages over spending and makes the rich too rich. a few ideas i've had for possibly a better currency; a time backed currency, the number of hours in a year multiplied by the population, is the upper limit. minimum wage would be a 1 hour certificate in exchange for an hour of labor. an energy backed currency; a certificate for each kilowatt or perhaps megawatt of electricity produced, the first recipients of the currency would be the people who make electricity. i also like the idea of cryptocurrency, using mathematics to make currency.

phillip1882 Posted September 20, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 it is different. lets say half the population makes minimum wage, 40 hours a week. thats 40*52*164,750,000 = 34,268,000,000 then lets say half of what remains receives a 2 hour certificate in exchange for an hour of labor. that's an additional 34,268,000,000 then lets say half of that receives a 5 hour certificate in exchange for an hour of labor. thats 428,350,000,000 after all this, total remaining is 2,389,534,000,000 and there are 41,187,500 people remaining. lets say its split evenly among them. the wage per person would be approximately 27 hour certificate for every hour of labor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Current "see is actually free, although "cash rules everything around me" so people in prominent positions should act accordingly..

phillip1882 Posted September 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2022 Quote That’s the same as having no upper limit, even Jeff Bezos doesn’t have 13 zeroes 21,709,200,000,000 is the total currency we have right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
