- About Copiosis:
(from the press kit)

Founded on July 4, 2013 Copiosis is increasingly being recognized around the world as a desirable successor to capitalism. It offers humanity all of capitalism’s benefits, with none of it’s problems. Copiosis has only emerged as a possibility within the last few decades simply because we lacked the technology required to implement it.

Generally, here’s how Copiosis works. Instead of allowing capital to flow to activities which generate a monetary profit, but also come with dire consequences, Copiosis provides a built-in mechanism to ensure capital only flows to activities having a NET EFFECT of making people and the planet better off.

Copiosis accomplishes this goal by replacing money with a completely virtual form of currency called net benefit reward or NBR. NBR functions like money in that you can redeem it for luxury goods. But unlike money, NBR is only redeemable, not transferrable. You and only you can redeem your NBR. When you redeem your NBR, it will cease to exist. Similarly, when you are awarded NBR, it isn’t transferred from someone else’s account. It is simply created from nothing into your account.

In Copiosis, NBR is society’s way of rewarding people who create a net benefit for people and the planet. While the algorithm is a bit more complex than this, it can be simplified as follows for any given activity:

Net Benefit = Positive Impacts – Negative Impacts
