Funding of the Center for Timism:
The Morality of More Time
No funding is expected from the Timism Center. Quite to the contrary, Timism donations will be one of the largest endowments ever. (Details)
Timism will have a self-generated market cap of $10 to $15 billion in a few years. This value is not from venture/vulture capitalists counterfeiting stocks to sell into middle-class pensions and savings. 401ks are the biggest bank robbery in history. Since 1980, the middle-class has lost 90% of retirement funding, about $50 trillion. Rather, Timism value in hours of life and in lifehours will be from the middle-class self-organizing to solve human problems, to wit, the best government is the least government ... if we better self-govern. When politicians make good policies then the polity in the polis will polite without police.
A goal of Timism necessary for the Primary Moral Imperative is a global, functional currency system based on the value of a person's time as a solver of time-wasting problems, that is, wealth and worth rejoin their common semantic ancestry as moral twins once again. That currency is the lifehour. Like frequent flyer airline miles, when millions have billions of lifehour credits, a new de facto currency exists. Unlike other currencies that are manipulated by politicians, economists and speculators, lifehours cannot be inflated/deflated because they are to be tied to the one common denominator that is ageless, the hours of our life--24/day. With clockface time, the tools of timism will become active including the trading of lifehours. One's accumulation of lifehours will be most prominent in healthcare costs as part of 24in4: Share Job Time or Jobless Crime. With a dysfunctional currency system, one can say, "Never in the history of human dynamics has so much been owned by so few." |
