people must (and want to) consume in order to do so, people must also produce. people dont always want to produce the same things they consume some people have a greater ability (and/or willingness) to produce things than others

so lets assume a system where different nodes (ppl/groups of similar people) are somewhat specialised in the thing they produce now people can trade a thing they've produced (but dont require) with another node that has something they want to consume

this becomes hard, because things some things are more 'expensive' than others. they take more time, more resources also, the other producers whose product i want to consume, might not want MY product at all this is where we need a way of quantifying or evaluating products

if we can put a value on all the things that are produced, we can use this value token as an intermediary, and trade value bits for things to consume, instead of other produced things yay

we currently value things by supply (how much of a thing there is) and demand (how much people want the thing) i wonder if theres some other way of evaluating ventures and things that are produced (and therefore consumed)

id personally like it to include these dimensions - novelty (is it new - does it provide some new functionality / perspective) - sustainability (circular economy, will it last, is it an investment in the future) - agreeableness (do people like it)

agreeableness is probably closest to demand novelty is probably good bc creating new things are probably good sustainability may not be in high demand, but is necessary id like to think how/where/at what level this could be accounted for

maybe its just huge ass subsidies maybe its greater transparency or consumer awareness idk maybe demand just isnt all that great given we dont really know whats best for us + life

Replying to @cosimia_
Gotta have individuals that CARE about the macro. Tough to get them motivated. But if consumers begin to demand the values you put forth, we are set. Could happen. It is already slowly going that way perhaps.
