GROWING COMMUNITY - A COOP OR WHAT?
Perhaps I should do it (since I have time) or link with others... It would be very different from "business" though!!!
NOTES EDITED ALONG THE WAY TO THIS ' NEW ' IDEA
(in random order from skimming other sites and deciding Y/N/Maybe myself and jotting below):
1- Not pay any salaries or have anyone officially accountable externally, No investors, any profit is returned somehow
= we might accept any business (a money maker for government as main definition) is making for too many problems AND we might accept people working a job is need by some of us either way. People *have to do* that anyway (can't make a living from this even if we tried) and to keep it ALL voluntary / externally less named as people / payments IF anything... (see point 2)
2- Cost server upkeep and various costs also could be shared / mutual (even replicate tomorrow if someone gets made) so it's not doing business but more making friends / doing stuff that lasts on it's own (and even then accepting downtime (and doing things individual makes it resilient) even pause uptime (people have babies etc) until someone really can pay or actually *wants* to pay / philanthropy style etc). No use forcing it / having bad exchanges.
We do in spare time basically and follow a decent leader or two marked by belief in people and their skills (BOTH NOT NEEDED - can inspire people totally without climbing the whole mountain as some are literally better than the coach or trainer which is ok especially in programming or organization!).
3- Payments / donations outside of traditional Banksta's
- humour about Banks and financial Gangsta's here https://qoto.org/@freeschool/109140513642467008)
- Comradery uses STRIPE for example (mostly US as payment for all cards BUT problematic for international fees etc but yeah could be Monero *for those who wish* as a "shot to nothing" spend / receiving and just gesture without banks)
4- Organizing Setup? Not sure about the co-operative setup (seems good but just more detailed... I think I might prefer open debate with reasoning IF 'rulers' can constantly enjoy that even as a way of 'upgrading' peoples mind rather than steering finances or a business... at the end more of the population should enjoy the giving AND taking AND *mindwork* involved. See next point .
------------------------------
5- Name? Calling it MINDCRAFT! as a group or movement - really to start something (it's better than FREESCHOOL of which I realise 'free' is a contaminate as a word / misleading / too many meanings... could have been freedom but that also is the same so MINDCRAFT *might* sound like YOU craft your skills (and I / others help as like-minded searchers / learners )
