Taxes model inclusive fitness coarsely. If I earn a dollar, pay $0.15 in federal taxes, $0.15 in state income and sales taxes, and $0.05 in local taxes, retaining $0.65 in consumed/saved value, all citizens are like ~second cousins, fellow state citizens are ~first cousins etc.

A lot of this is probably wildly flawed but the base insight I’m trying to work out is “not all planet scale emergent computing systems are equally powerful and expressive” Pre-modern global economy = 1 Modern = 3 Climate system = 5 Biological evolution = 6

Public markets are, in theory, a two sided platform. Returns that may more effectively be dealt with by your suggestion, but also investment capital (in theory) needed by firms so they can add value to the economy. How do you account for or replace that?

The “tax share” is basically equivalent to continuous IPO. Like supercharged bootstrapping. If you sell well, you get more of the share of taxes from ALL previous customers. That’s your capital.
