Teresa

Wants to know how to move to another village

Coin exchange all people are payers and potential providers (of multiple services) what if people are not productive? CURRENTLY unemployed people get benefits, or the gig economy (like uber or deliveroo) Teresa - but the gig economy is unfair

Amit

how does this disrupt local inequalities and promote local justice Alexie currently provides free computer fixing service - that would otherwise be a perfectly viable business. - it would be possible for local hospital to come to you to address their computer networking needs (though there are questions about qualifications and expertise)

AMIT says - What is the social function of council tax civic society - in opposition to the state what we are drawing is an ecology of services
