Hello again, 1) Problem solving is my value; I approach the problem from a technical and scientific perspective; I value creating new systems that help people and can scale (without depending on politics). I want to eliminate poverty for desperate people, and to enable people to have hope and purpose in life. My vision is to provide a minimum standard of living for people living in third world outsourcing/freelancing hubs who desperately use the internet to get remote jobs rather than (for example) working outdoors with a shovel doing subsistence farming. Starting from this motivated group of people, the program could expand towards your vision of providing help to unmotivated people. I am trying to implement systems for UBI on the technical side, I do have experience with implmeneting these systems, I don't want my knowledge to be lost or to stay with me, I want to expand my vision and to make UBI realistic, not just a theory paper. I want to adapat the system with practice and learnings. I want to grow the scope of problems that can be addressed by UBI but it's all theoretical unless there is a funding mechanism.

2) This link (below) is broken so I can't really analyze the full scope of your ideas; could you make this a public document please? I think the key difference is time-expiry and the philosophy behind it. I did read your other English docs. For me, UBI is a government welfare program; in contrast, my idea involves people like you and me establishing charitable institutions, self-defense and barter systems, like a neo-Hawala, that would help people directly while bypassing the government. Creating a movement/organization means taking risks in the real world because we recognize the moral imperative and we won't wait for the government's "comprehensive administrative reforms" to create a grassroots movement that can help people.

3) The government is not moving fast enough, the welfare system doesn't automatically distribute things and political change often requires a crisis, but technology could do it immediately, the government could get involved later but since we are not the government, we can't really make the government run a pilot right now or even to influence a politician. Some NGOs do eventually get absorbed into government, this NGO would not need to receive funding but would output funding, just like a public benefit corporation that pursues a social mission does today.

Thank you.

Hello, I am an individual working on various projects especially on self-funded UBI practical solutions, I live in USA and am employed in tech. I was impressed by your writing and mission and am reaching out to see if you want to move toward an implementation of a pilot or study. We can meet online and use frontier AI tools to make a plan. My pilot involves testing the UBI funding scheme that I have planned, as I see the source-of-funds question as the biggest gap in UBI schemes; taking the gov out of the equation is something that technology could do. I am willing to fund the experiment but I would like someone to partner with me as I don't really have time to implement my ideas and I haven't thought about all the tradeoffs either, I just have a process that could work, and has already worked in special circumstances as per my tests. Please do reach out thru email, as your comment was marked, hence I cannot reply to comments and must start a new top-level comment.
