RANGE
Let’s look at a few examples of how this funding scheme could work. If one person signed up … and there was one unit in the donation box, the farmer (participant) would receive 62 cents, the farm they tag would receive 24 cents, the mall (or farmers market) would receive 8 cents, the hub (city) 3 cents, the region 2, and the web 1. If there were more participants, or more funds, we could use these formulas to maintain proportional distribution among participants within each locale. Also may need to mention, if we were to do this more at scale, we could use the actual phi ratios to determine more precise amounts. In this case, these percentages are easier to speak from.
As far as the amount of funds go.. We could say:
If we had less than 1380 units per month per participant, we could distribute funds proportionally among farmers and tiers, however the ratio computes
If someone asked us, blank check, how much do we need, 1380 units per participant per month would be sufficient. This includes 1000 units per person plus 380 units for all combined tiers: 240 units to the farm, 80 units to the mall, 30 to the hub, 20 to the region, 10 to the web. This would be the cost of connecting participants with everyone else, how we can maintain a human-to-human connection
1000 units of currency seems to be the common amount of funds proposed by various Universal Basic Income programs. Also something interesting with this number 1000. If we separate 1000 units a month into 30 days and separate that into 24 hours, we get 1.38 units per hour. If we remember, this is what we determined as the speed of light through a membrane. So we could say, we’re placing a value of currency, an estimation, on the rate at which we are growing, (without respect to mass), each hour.
If we had more than 1380 units per participant per month, if say people were looking for a place to store excess wealth. We could secure 6 to 12 months or so as security for future months, and then invest excess in gold and silver, particularly two rare metals to balance the price of each (bimetallism), and try to create a dividends program for people to invest in each other.
This last section could come to form later on, if and as this idea develops. Just wanted to share some considerations. I’ll also share, there are other components of this idea which include: a strategy to connect schools with farms, a travel program, a stock market and a league of intramural events and quarterly festivals. A more extensive description of this idea can be found here (PERMAVILLE ACT). And this is something I look forward to developing if we find success. Okay, that’s the range.
