  2. Hi all, I believe, that children themselves are the best teachers for children. I also believe, that sharing knowledge with others is the best way to learn. Personally I want help to change the current industry based school system to a more human based school system, that encourages creativity, cooperation and self motivated learning. Currently I think about starting with these parameters: Up to now nothing is set in stone, so feel free to add. Per month 1 Freihour(10 dollar) per student is given out in Freicoin as a World Citizens Dividend. (+1 Freihour for common good projects)

    Suppressed technology

    I like to remain skeptical when it comes to these kind of technologies (except the solar panels, but it's hard to call them suppressed). For centuries there have been snake oil salesmen creating half-assed 'inventions', luring in investors and running away with the money when the truth is revealed. This especially the case for free energy generators that break the laws of thermodynamics. Think of it like altcoins that make unrealistic promises and then collapse leaving you holding the bag The best approach is to get these things be reviewed by a diverse group of experts, so proper conclusio

  6. Actually, I think, that in the beginning we should also allow to claim other zero interest loans, as long as they are transparent and fitting to the values of freieconomy. So in a way it would not matter much how many Freicoins the loan was, it would matter how many Freihours the loan was. In this case, the loan was given in Dollar, luckily Dollars are currently very easy to translate to Freihours just bei dividing thorugh 10 If maybe in future the loan is directly payed back over the Micro Loan Programm, then we could just match the Freicoins when the loan was payed back. Or we could m

  8. Hemp apparel by a small Finnish brand: http://en.rcm.mycashflow.fi/ "RCM products are made of fabrics made of 55% hemp and 45% organic cotton. RCM’s goal is to offer a more ecological and ethical choice for the street wear audience. RCM products are designed in Finland and produced with careful attention to the detail and design in China. Products are made in a factory specialized in producing eco-friendly products of natural materials, such as hemp and organic cotton."

  10. yea, we can start with something easy to calculate the dollar inflation By the way, am currently reading Debt; the first 5.000 years He shows, that it is just not true, that before money there was barter. Instead he showed, that before money was there, debt was there. And people just used some unit of account to count the debt in. By the way, Terra would have been a great name for Freicoin...

  11. Bravo Arcurus! The unit of the future is a global index rather than an actual currency. And Freicoin doesn't need to be a good unit of account to be a great medium of exchange and cheap currency in lending terms. We've talked about similar concepts before under names like GRU (Global Reference Unit) or TRU (Trade Reference Unit, inspired in Bernard Lietaer's Terra or Trade Reference Currency). I talked to Thomas Greco (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_H._Greco,_Jr. ) about this and he had the same idea long ago, and tried to convince Lietaer that an index rather than an actual "backed" curr

    Oh dear

    Oh dear indeed.. Like Skirmant says, deception is an effective way to keep people misguided. It has been a strategy by "the powers that be" for centuries, if not millenniums, and for a good reason; it works. Divide and conquer, like they say. So.. the thing that raises the "Oh dear" feeling for me in that clip.. is the portrayal of the media manipulation as a new phenomena. Theres some other manipulative wordings and phrases in it too :/ Haha, though, then again its no wonder theres misguiding there when you check the broadcasting company behind the serie...
