One Cornerstone of Societal Stability

In the context of our work to end systemic poverty the foundation for societal and personal stability is “stable records”. 

If ownership of one’s:

• history, 

• assets, 

• education, and/or 

• place in society 

ever comes under attack – then that individual and their family face a dire threat. This threat has become true destruction for too many people throughout history.

This aspect of poverty is covered in some detail under “The Green Economic Drivetrain” 

• It explains why control of records is so important for implementing the Degenerative Cycle and how stable records protect us from old-school systems that exploit people and the planet for profit.  

• It gives examples of record keeping’s role in modern society.

• Then it describes our transition to digital record keeping – and its weaknesses. Including potential loss, corruption, and manipulation. And how historic record-keeping systems were open for exploitation by the system.

• It describes “blockchain” – what it is, in hopefully simple terms – and how it works to create stable or immutable records.

• It also explains the terms: immutable, transparent, distributed, hacking-resistant, and failsafe. And how these are relevant to the Ownership Economy and our family of Level UP Apps.
