  • That’s a great step. For anyone else too that wants to quit their job and start a business of their own you’re an inspiration now.

    Do you have everything set up already?

    You’ll need: a state business license, and maybe one for your local town and/or county.

    A insurance person to get general liability insurance, and you’ll probably need commercial auto, and possibly EOI and a to get bonded

    a website is going to be great if you have basic computer understanding. Get your name and website name and purchase the domain it as soon as you can. Once you have a website you can add all the basic questions people would waste your time with. get your business phone number and email all over that. You can even run website ads if you like which is likely to bring in business on it’s own but you have to pay for it so you want to be careful there and only give very hyper specific words in your target word or you’ll waste money. You can always pay someone to do the website and ads for you.

    a CPA to help you with you taxes

    maybe a bookkeeper

    you can get a few t shirts and hats and or jackets and stickers and whatever oneline easily enough

    business cards to give out to all the clients you meet too


  • We agree that the current situation won’t change itself, and change to this system from inside of it would likely be stifled and repressed.

    I agree that we need to keep trying to find a better way, because there are many people are will certainly keep trying to make things worse for us.

    The first step is a better way to communicate between ourselves about what we want, why we want it, and how to enact our intentions.

    With the advent and use of the internet we now have the possibility for a new way to organize our collective wants.

    This system, which I call a consensus engine, would let us as a species make long term goals and work towards their fruition. Without some way to communicate that is less sustainable to misinformation I don’t see any way we can get out of this into something better.
















  • I think most normal people who don’t own any yachts will agree, but it’s a far cry from saying we need to make things better to actually doing so.

    I think that to succeed in this we need a plan, and as plans go there are many. So the plan we need has to integrate lots of possible changes and alternatives.

    The ‘r/ a better world’ idea, of a consensus engine is where I think we can make this succeed.

    We can make a money making engine that uses it’s resources to take people and communities out of poverty.

    Imagine a ‘church’ or rather fellowship of people who don’t want to be dicks to people and who don’t want people to act like dicks towards them, that being the only main tie and not ‘religion’ as it is known.

    this community group could use something called a ‘consensus engine’ to agree on things, and where people don’t agree we can use the CE to see why they don’t agree. This can be traced backward though a chain of reasoning to show where one party diverges in thought and action.

    Examples: for science research, it acts as a chain of validation as well as a reputation management system. people who explain themselves well and created actually reproducible experiments gain clout in that area and

    for showing religious people that they are hypocrites, someone says they love jesus and support his teachings of loving everyone and helping the poor, then they show that they do not help other or help the poor, then they have to try and define why that is okay and where their own disconnect comes from

    for companies, a moral clause can be added that the company has to help people and can’t just try to make money if it means killing others or ruining the planet

    I have a ton of examples of how such an idea might work but zero ideas how to implement it, in case you wanted more info on the idea to make it yourlsef let me know
