Hey Dante,<br>
<br>
I wonder if I am being to myopic ...could you help me understand your<br>
(and the metacurrency) approach?<br>
<br>
Maybe I am looking at this wrong, but I don't understand what 'backs'<br>
these currencies, and also do not understand when or by whom they are<br>
issued.<br>
<br>
<br>
</div><div class="im">In the system I propose, the currency is backed by the Sources and<br>
Skills needed to produce *future* Objects.<br>
<br>
</div><div class="im">These tickets have a window of validity (they are not valid until some<br>
future time, and then expire after some further time based on the<br>
physical constraints of both production and storage).<br>
<br>
These tickets are 'issued' by groups of co-owners of the Physical<br>
Source (Material Means of Production) to individuals within that group<br>
as a way of accounting for whether (for example) each has picked-up<br>
their dozen eggs for the week.<br>
<br>
Thanks for your consideration.<br>
<br>
</div>Sincerely,<br>
Patrick<br>
