Building a Nomad Nation | ||
|
||
= Definition = | ||
==Traditional definition == | ||
* A relatively large group of people organized under a single, usually independent government; | ||
* A people who share common customs, origins, history, and frequently language; a nationality | ||
|
||
== Our definition == | ||
* A relatively large group of people organized under a single, independent government sharing common values. | ||
|
||
== Core Values == | ||
|
||
We are uncovering better ways of living by doing it and helping others do it. | ||
Through this work we have come to value: | ||
|
||
* freedom over anything | ||
* technology over bureaucratie | ||
* darwinism of small communities over regulation and control of entire societies | ||
* decentralization over centralization | ||
|

||
=== Market System === | ||
In order to establish charge value the nation uses an advanced market bidding system when establishing annual budget. | ||
The mechanic is simple: | ||
|
||
- As a citizen, you have two choices to pay your mandatory charges: | ||
A. Pay cash | ||
B. Contribute time to one or more communities | ||
|
||
Time is valued based on what people are willing to spend to get this service. | ||
We build a pool of resource of many given kind: | ||
- Education Services | ||
- Healthcare Services | ||
- Security Services | ||
- Social Services | ||
- Industrial Services | ||
- Government Services | ||
- Constitution & Laws | ||
- International Treaties | ||
- Community Control | ||
- Economical Services | ||
- Other Services | ||
|
||
=== For example: === | ||
Let's assume that we have 500 citizens. | ||
They have to first agree on a annual charge amount. Let's say: 2000$ each. This establish the national budget to 1,000,000$. Note that ALL citizens, including | ||
children and old people share this charge. Money charges are taken from a Paypal account each month (166.67$ per month) | ||
|
||
Each 2000$ can be split into financing communities in any of the previously listed categories, based on what the citizen believe is important | ||
to him/her. Each community has a value proposition to the citizen, competing for the citizen money. | ||
|
||
Each citizen must put 10% in government communities and 20% in social communities. The rest is up to them. It means that they spent 600$ in predefined | ||
categories and 1400$ in the ones they think might be important. | ||
|
||
If you can't pay, you may still pay your charge by providing time to other citizens. | ||
|
||
Some examples: | ||
- A student might pay its charge by attending education courses and contributing to other communities. How exactly is an education hour is worth is not | ||
known yet... | ||
JG -> An idea might be that they postpone their charge payment until they can work... not sure... | ||
|
||
- A mother contributes by taking care of her child. She's providing services to another citizen (her baby) | ||
- One could register its renovation skills, which would be made hired by other citizens who need them. (market @ work here) | ||
|
||
== Nation Goals == | ||
|
||
- Provide to each member freedom, security, education and economic emancipation. | ||
- Establish a system where social charges are equally split between all individuals. | ||
- Establish a system where individual success and society contribution are encouraged. | ||
- Establish a self organising government rules by market rules, based on people needs. | ||
- Give the power to the people by letting them vote with their contribution money. | ||
- Encourage the creation of value | ||
|
||
|
||
= Operational details and procedures = | ||
== Membership == | ||
- Membership is by invitation only. You have to know a citizen in order to become one. | ||
- The proposing citizen is responsible for all proposed new members for one year. | ||
- Each citizen must engage in contribution of an equal charge amount. Contribution may be other than money. | ||
