Political Party
Everything should be based on project, if there is no project, the position should disappear.
Exclusive Electronic Payments, No paper money
The corruption, the black money exist only with paper money. If every payment would be electronic, than it would be very easy to track each sum. Like this it is very easy to calculate the taxes, to find the big and weird transfers.
With no paper money, it is hard to sell something stolen, nobody would steal a car to sell it for money in another country.
Inflation calculus is done automatically real time.
Everyone can have access on demand/offer so the economy can adjust quicker.
Because the state has access to every buy, can tax differently on his interests:
- If you buy alcohol it is taxed more
- If you pay for tennis you get a deduction, because sport makes you healthier so less spending on helth
Vote on internet for each decision
The representative in Parliament just express the vote on internet. People receive on mobile phone the issue that will be debated, and they can vote. The application shows a SWOT analysis to facilitate the decision. The votes are summed up, and repeated in the Parliament.
Lotto selection
If someone represents a group of people, the best way
Vote by education and activities
Sterilization inventive
The state needs people high and well educated. From very poor families, there is a good chance to have bad citizens. If someone agrees to be sterilized for 300Euros, that means a child values less than this sum, so if he would have a kid, he would not provide a good education.

Co-Sharing Bar
Context
To open a bar is one of the most common business ideas.
It is a usual dream because it promises you to have a very good social life, to have a lot of friends, to feel important, to gain a lot of money, to host important people, to be warmly and specially greeted by the waiters in front of the people in your group.
Still, only a few open a bar, due to the high cost.
The profit for a bar is like 300% and the taxes are not paid for every bottle.
Solution
The solution is to have only 1% of a bar with other 99 partners who have the same 1%

Actors
Initiator (me):
- Creates the project, finds the potential solutions for:
- Location
- Bar design
- Menu, pre-contracts with beer suppliers
- Music, bartenders, managers, waitresses
- Finds co-partners, presents the concept
- Organize meetings and the vote
- Handles administrative issues
- Does the interface with the executive people
Co-partner:
- Votes for a bar setting (all bar parameters)
- Invests money in the project
- Goes usually to the bar
- Invites friends to the bar, promotes the bar
Executive people:
- Bartender
- Manager
- Waiter
Plan
- speak with a marketing person (1 day,0 $)
- create a facebook account with the description of the concept(1 day, 0$)
- find locations, design, music(2 days,0$)
- find co-partners: go in bars and , make brief presentation, business card with link to the facebook account(40 days- see calculus below,120$)
- check the feedback: the rate of : very interested, interested, not interested to estimate of overall success (1 day,0$)
- organize meeting, vote and investment ( 3 meetings = 3 days,0$ )
- find executors ( 2 days,20$ - on job site)
- open the bar(20 days)
Total time cost: 70 days
Total money cost: 140$
4. Find co-partners time cost:
Suppose that 10% of interviewed people are interested => I need 1000 people
I don’t speak to a single person, but a group, so it is easier to convince a group, than a single person => on average should be 3 persons on a group => I need only 333 interviews
A presentation takes maximum 15 minutes, than the effect is lost => total effort = 80 hours
I can handle 2 hours => 40 days
1 beer at the bar 3$=> 120$
6. Organize meeting -> rent a pub, sell tickets, it’s a simulation for the co-sharing bar
cost: 0$
Business Data
To open a share company, minimum capital is 65.000 Euros
Profit tax: 38%
Dividend tax: 25%
Location cost: 12E / mp / month
Salary costs:
1 manager = 1500 => 3000E gross
1 bartender = 1500 => 3000E gross
1 waiter = 1200 => 2400E gross
Total monthly cost estimation = 10.000
Beer cost = 0.5E
Sell beer price = 3.8E => for break even 3.000 beers must be sold => 100 beers / day => 50 clients
If the co-partners come twice a week => 2* 100 co-partners = 200 clients / 7 = 30 clients / day
If each co-partner bring one friend => 60 clients and break-even is already hit
Condition to select a co-partner for break-even
In the first 6 months each co-partner comes twice a week with a friend and drinks 2 beers.

Moral Break
We observe only by difference. We feel good when something changes from negative to positive and bad vice-verse. But when nothing happens boredom comes and makes us fragile, more open for changes, but minor ones.
The idea is to restrict for a short time something on our lives, so when we regain it we can feel more thankful that we have it.
Examples:
- To experiment blindness / deafness for an afternoon
- To sleep one night in the woods
- To stay alone in a cave, in complete darkness
- To spend no money for 3 days
- To do some voluntary work for children / old people

Athletism & automobilism
To criticize means to compare,and it is impossible with something which I have seen
only once in my life.
So I'll compare the two sports. Both are linked with the speed of move, to get from one
place to another.
I'll try to apply the paradox of Zenon, replacing the frog by athlet, and achile by a f1 car
and we'll see if the f1 car can catch the athlet.
Running is probably the oldest sport, and f1 is the top speed of all sports.
So, after 2700 years of human development, what we've achieved ?
I'll use A for athletism, and f1 for automobilism
0. It was a study which said that Carl Lewis, the 100 meters speed runner, in the first
0.4 seconds, was quicker than a f1 car.
1, at A you can see the muscels contracting, you can almost feel the effort
at f1, if the car is near you, you cannot see it, it's like a stain of color which
apears for 2 blinks, and then disapears. I couldn't think that there is a human beeing,
that's schumacher, or to support the favorite, because there is no contact.
2. at A you participate in your way, you can encourage, think that if you can concentrate
you can give more power to the favorite, you have an active atitude. At f1 you are passive
your years are broken by the sound, you try to protect yourself, you try to see the car
it smells a little. The smell is the best thing.
3. running is more democratic, the kenians in the 60's had no shoes, but still they could
win. In f1, you have money, you can win. That's why in A you can see surprises, changes,
but in f1, it is very difficult.
4. in A they can see each other, they can confront. In f1, they are each by himself,
it is more than individualistic, it is solipsistic.
5. in A, for the 200 meters hurdles, all the stadium kept the silence, and I could feel
the energy, the wait for the start, and when they started, the adrenalin. It was like
the time delated. In f1, a huge noise, with less atmosphere.
6. in A there is competition, in f1 it is less.
7. A is a sport where it counts how you can controll your body and mind, in f1 it is
important how you controll a machine, something that it is not even an extension of the driver
8. A is 99% safe, f1 is 66% safe
So, what is the conclusion ?
after 2800 years we decreased the competition, we are more individualistic.
