Post Body

All residents are guaranteed basic nutrition and a small apartment- think the tiny rooms they used to rent out at the YMCA, just big enough for a bed, a bathroom, and a small desk- as well as a cheap-but-functional off-brand i-phone. This will be important later.

"credits", a fully digital replacement for money and whatnot, are awarded for doing 'pro-social' things, like cleaning up, or doing the specific tasks that need to be done on a regular basis. For example, if a bridge needs to be built, the BBS for the city will say to the effect of "Mission: Bridge over River XXX. Duration: 4 Weeks. 800cr/day for engineer, 700cr/day for machine operator, 500cr/day for anyone with a strong back and arms."

Also, I expect social media will be ubiquitous, so 'reputation' or some such may emerge as an unofficial second currency.

Any very high-tech things like the Smartphones are given out for free to anyone who needs them at certain intervals, which will be explained later. Raw materials for other things are sold from official vendors, but not finished goods. Furniture is not sold, only wood and tools. Food other than the basic allotment is not sold, only seeds and dirt. If it can be hand-made, if must be hand made, or bought from another citizen who hand-makes it. The advanced technology is made whit as much automation as possible and sold at cost as a government service.

There are no corporations, political parties, unions, clubs, or any other 'groups' of any kind. Every individual is an individual to the nth degree.

The 'government' per-se is kept to an absolute minimum. Everything is voted on publicly, through the aforementioned totally-not-I-Phones. There are no elected officials, and as much of the administrative labor and decision-making as computerized as possible. The few human 'government officials' exist only to carry out the will of the popular vote or the automated judgement-systems, with no 'decision-making' authority of any kind.

Every so often (either annually or quarterly, I can not decide) there is what is called a 'league reset'. How many credits everyone owns, along with the estimated value of their non-monetary assets, are calculated and recorded into a 'scoreboard', and then zeroed out. All accounts now read '000,000,' any ownable land or buildings are now unowned and up for sale, anything like a car of furniture you left out in the open is fair-game to be claimed. You only retain ownership of:

  1. Anything on your person or inside your small apartment, the apartment itself being the only the only 'land' that carries over.
  2. Intellectual property. If you compose a song or write a book, the rights to this are yours for at least a certain number of Leagues, though presumable they will eventually expire.
  3. Social media and whatnot carry over. So YouTube subs and likes are maintained, Reddit Karma, Twitter likes and reputation, and whatnot carry over.
