In the Industrial Park, five legacy systems were the lifeblood of the social order: Governance, Education, Health Care, Finance, and Religion. These systems provided all that was needed to sustain a modern industrial society such as the USA and Europe. They operated in sync with each other and were seldom disrupted by major changes.
In the Global Village, these same five systems are rarely in sync and easily disrupted by any fault in the global blockchain that depends on them. They were deployed in the same ways that proved highly effective in the national blockchain that supported the Industrial Park. However, their ability to support global enterprise was severely constrained by cultural and socio-economic differences. From differences in currency valuations, to economic growth and wealth distribution, the global blockchains were incoherent and unpredictable.
Residents of the Global Village were able to overcome these constraints by applying a combination of Consumerism and Autonomous Socialism. Because they are guided by Artificial Intelligence, both of these global systems are blind to currency fluctuations, cultural differences and socio-economic variations. The technology platforms that support these global systems are vetted and rated by all stakeholders in the Global Village. Unanimous approval is required to add functionality or change the basic design. The Prime Directive provides the success criteria for any changes:
- Serve all Residents equally well.
- Provide win-win solutions to all global problems
- Preserve, protect and defend the rights of all Residents
