Blueprint for A Global Democracy Based on An Economy of Intellectual Currency

• Each person on earth is a Citizen with a single, unique, authenticated username and password and Internet access.
• Each Citizen has access to the GlobalElections.org website, where they are free perform all actions that are described below.
• Each Citizen is assigned his own Account, which contains Voting Tokens.
• The Citizen is free to spend Voting Tokens in various ways.
• Each Citizen receives 1000 Voting Tokens each week, and these Voting Tokens accumulate in the Citizen’s Account until they are spent.
• A Publishing Group is set of one or more Citizens.
• The Publishing Group establishes a Distribution Percentage for each citizen.
• A single, separate Publishing Group is created for each Citizen automatically when the Citizen is registered on the site, and this Publishing Group consists of the single Citizen.
• Citizens are free to create Publishing groups without limit. It is the Citizen’s choice whether to join a given Publishing Group, and it is the members of the group that decide, by whatever means they choose, whether to admit a particular Citizen to the group.
• Publishing Groups, and only Publishing Groups, create Positions.
• A Position is a webpage containing original content, including videos, audio, images, text, etc.
• Citizens spend their Voting Tokens by allocating them to Positions.
• When a Citizen spends Voting Tokens on a Position, the Voting Tokens are divided-up among the Citizens belonging to the Publishing Group that created the Position, according to the Distribution Percentages established in the Publishing Group.
• In this way, a Citizen can receive Voting Tokens into his account by virtue of the popularity of the Positions that are created by the Publishing Groups of which he is a member.
• Publishing Groups can also create Bills.
• Upon publication, a Bill is placed into the Bill Ocean.
• Each Bill posseses its own Account.
• Citizens are free to spend their Voting Tokens on Bills in the Bill Ocean, and when they do, the Voting Tokens are accumulated into the Bill’s Acount.
• Every day, whichever Bill in the Bill Ocean has greatest number of Voting Tokens in its Account is moved from the Bill Ocean into the Bill Pool.
• The Bill Pool contains exactly 100 Bills at any given time.
• Citizens are free to spend their Voting Tokens on Bills in the Bill Pool, and when they do, the Voting Tokens are accumulated into the Bill’s Acount.
• Every day, whichever Bill in the Bill Pool has the greatest number of Voting Tokens in its Account is moved from the Bill Pool to the Bill Ladder. At this time, all of the Voting Tokens in the Bill’s Account are discarded.
• The Bill Ladder contains exactly 100 Bills at any given time.
• A Bill enters the Bill Ladder at the bottom rung, and moves up a rung each day for 100 days.
• During this 100-day period, Citizens are free to spend the Voting Tokens, for or against the Bill.
• This is the only instance in which Citizens can spend their Voting Tokens against something.
• At the end of the 100-day period, when the Bill reaches the top rung of the Bill Ladder, if the Bill has received more votes for than against, then it is passed into Law, otherwise, the Bill is discarded.
• At the end ofthe 100-day period, all of the Voting Tokens that were spent on the Bill during its time in the Bill Ladder are also discarded, regardless of whether the Bill passes into law or not.
