Invitation: Discussion on World Economy

[Andreas the Wise]

The world economy isn't looking too active at the moment. Einhorn and I have been chatting about this and we have some cool ideas to kickstart it, but we would love your thoughts and input too. If there's one thing I've learnt from almost five years of micronational economic tinkering, it's that brilliant economic systems designed by one person alone don't tend to last very long . We're hoping that there are other people out there that are interested in getting some economic activity going again, and if there is interest, we'd love to have a discussion here and see if we can get a bunch of nations and people involved in an economic revival. We'll be going around to various nations and people and asking them individually, but consider this a general invitation to everyone we don't get to.

I'm really excited at the prospects for micronational economics at this point in time. We have a record number of micronations sharing a currency, we have a whole lot of new blood (the MicroWiki guys), and we have we have automated banking and stock systems at a level we haven't seen for at least five years (if ever) - as well as the programming ability to continue improving it. We have the potential for a highly successful world economy - but we can't do it without your help. We're not expecting everyone to end up doing exactly the same things, but we're hoping to get some good shared ideas and agreement so we can all work off the same page and kickstart at the same time. So if you're interested in getting your economy going again, sharing thoughts and hearing the cool ideas Einhorn and I have, say so in this thread, and we'll go from there .

We're particularly interested in what we can do with the SCUE, because so many nations are involved in that, including our own; but we're still keento hear from nations outside that as well, particularly if you have interest in economic interaction with the SCUE.

Boo! Down with micronational economies! Boo!

* throws peanuts at Andreas *

[Parker I]

I'm interested.

[Andreas the Wise]

Great to see more interest (and Boo to you too Ari ). We'll wait a little longer to see if we can get some more, and go from there.

[Duke_J]

Tho I don't have all the time I'd like to have, I'm in!

[Nathan]

I have no ideas but I'm sure Natopia will participate in whatever you all think up

[Nick]

It's good to see interest! Talks will commence Friday, so, if at all possible could the powers that be make a small subforum for us?

[Brian Barry]

A1 would be interested

[RianLBP]

I'm interested with this idea, let's go then.

[Andreas the Wise]

Great to have so many people involved! As you can see, I've posted some of my ideas - please, leave any comments/thoughts on that, and feel free to start posting your own. I've opened up a discussion on stock exchanges and business activity, but there's plenty more topics, like the role of governments, resource trading, standards for particular industries etc. If you've got some ideas or you've got a problem you'd like discussed, start a topic and we'll see where it goes

[Ciprian I]

I don't actually try to re-activate Novolandia's economy, but to build it. First of all, a forum is needed, and we would like to share a forum with other nations. Next a currency, banking system. It could take some time...
