@kingofthepaupers "charge what they are worth?" Is your life worth more then mine?... "don't worry about the losers" if you consider yourself a winner, I might venture to say you are a capitalist and if you think otherwise it's only because you went to school, you were taught a certain way, so that your critical thinking skills got all screwed up and you might be looking at some videos or articles that promote change, but you cant think for yourself so your conclusions are all fkd

@kingogthepaupers: You have to understand that this is the way Time Banking is setup. Just because you have a Masters Degree in Mannagment doesn't mean that if you apply to McDonalds that you will not be the fry cook before your the manager. This is his idea if your so displeased find your own idea and get people to buy in. Your arguement holds no water, everyone's time is equal in value to one anothers!!!

Jct: An executive summary of time-based poker chips?

Two perfect models: Ithaca Hours. Sure, it's a dinky toy giving members 4 Hours worth of credit against their possible 100,000 hour career but grant people that 100,000 Hour (million US cash) credit line to all and don't worry about the losers the database will have to cover but enjoy the winners the database will share when we all end our run.

The Interest-free Palma currency bank model in Fortaleza Brazil creating chips against wealth.

Can you recommend a link or resource that provides an executive summary of the model you propound?

[kingofthepaupers]

Jct: Great interview!

2:00 "My hour is worth your hour."

Jct: The greatest weakness in all old labor trading systems since my professional hour is worth more than my volunteer hour. I wish Edgar would free up his market so people could, like Ithaca Hours, charge what they are worth.

3:00 "Time to put data in computer bank."

Jct: The best reason for using tokens is all but eliminating putting transactional data into the computer bank.
