RE: Have you Heard about VIVAcoin?

in #vivacoin8 years ago

What's close to my heart is the idea of "creating a better world." Of course, this is often the territory of idealists and visionaries... I tend to be more interested in the functional implementation and execution of such visions. The world is filled with brilliant ideas that are so contingent on layers of "if only" that they stand no real chance of coming to pass.

It's tricky to find balance between the "somebody's getting rich off this" and the "slaving endlessly for zero reward" perspective... both seem (to me) to be doomed to very different forms of failure. My favorite word in these contexts is "reciprocity." There must be an energetic exchange of some kind, be it skills for money, or time spent for benefits, or whatever... for me, Basic Income should be a tool to foster creativity and expression, not a ticket to check out of life and just suck on the teat of other people's efforts.

Wonderfully said! I can wholeheartedly agree with that in it's entirety.
