I agree and don’t agree at the same time because the world has to operate somehow. Just let people enjoy their money on every end of the spectrum while also allowing them the opportunity to actually save for big necessities.

yep. @op it's not ideal imo

I think what automatically kills the idea in China is that their evaluating the bad things people do and making it public,almost like their trying to tell people “if this guys score goes down any further,stay away from him”. Definitely not ideal,actual social credit is basically just a national way to judge people,definitely not what I’m suggesting.

The downside of my idea for moral currency would definitely be that if you get yourself into a bad situation,you pay for it in moral currency. Let’s say you get a speeding ticket,the way you pay for it would be moral currency,it wouldn’t be a system to judge good or bad deeds and your actual place in society.

Put the pipe down

I could see the value of this idea(more social utility than moral per se) becoming more clear when you think about teachers. Teaching provides an extremely high level of social value relative to teachers current pay which would seem pretty inconceivable for an ideal society. But instead of just simply paying teachers more in fiat we could augment their dollar salary with an additional value stream or "social credit".

Exactly,teachers and professors would actually become high valued jobs under a social currency/credit and then giving them there current salary as just spending money would substantially increase the interest for people to become teachers.

I peep the vision

good post OP

No.

youd all be broke and begging me for change
