Apps can solve the basic social security problem

Designed by Nidhi Mishra


The public distribution system is inefficient in terms of production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services and lacks inclusiveness.

You can view the fallouts of PDS:

Apps can solve the basic social security problem, bring healthy habits of spending money and can be used to run experiments, test it and improve it to get the best results.

Features:
1) API endpoints that any app developer can use and integrate it with their e-commerce apps.  Separate types of account for seller and customer.
2) Statistics about how you spending money. General statistics should be publicly available, where experts can review, critic and improve the results.
3) Tagged money, which means you can buy only particular types of products with that money.
e.g. Tagged money for grocery, or tagged money for cooked food, or tagged money for education which gets transferred to the seller in untagged form.  Possibilities are limitless.
 4) Tagged money comes with validity, it will disappear or gets returned to government after its validity is over (e.g. one month)
5) Also, untagged money which can be used to buy anything.
6) Account should be linked to Adhaar. Only one-time link, not a problem Adhaar critics. ):

Every people of the country pay about 18% of their income as taxes, everyone deserves the basic social security irrespective of social status.

From hypocrisy to democracy, This way: Delegated Proof of Stake

hyp·oc·risy [hypocrisy hypocrisies] behavior in which somebody pretends to have moral standards or opinions that they do not actually have dem·oc·racy [democracy democracies] 1) fair and equal treatment of everyone in a country or organization, etc, and their right to take part in making decisions 2) a system of government in which all the people of a country can vote to elect their representatives Yes, most democratic countries fulfill the second definition of democracy, but none to the first definition. Why Democracy is always unfair?  In an ideal world, elections should be two things: free and fair. Every adult, with a few sensible exceptions, should be able to vote for a candidate of their choice, and each single vote should be worth the same. Ensuring a free vote is a matter for the law. Making elections fair is more a matter for mathematicians. The many democratic electoral systems in use around the world attempt to strike a balance between mathematical fai

The Market for Lemons: How predatory journals make a new quality journal unsustainable for business?

Image
Nobel prize winner George Akerlof described how the quality of goods is degraded due to information asymmetry between buyers and sellers, leaving only “lemons” behind. Lemon is a vehicle with several manufacturing defects that buyers don’t know while buying. The mechanism: Suppose buyers can’t distinguish between a “peach” (high-quality car) and a “lemon”. A dishonest seller can sell the “lemon” saying it as “peach” at a price that is the average value of lemon and peach. So, in the market of lemon and peach, selling lemon will continue and sellers holding peaches will start leaving the market (as buyers can’t distinguish between lemon and peach, and lemon will have a lower price than that of peach). It produces a positive feedback loop because, when enough sellers of peaches leave the market, willingness to pay for buyers will decrease (as the average quality of cars on market decreased) leading to even more sellers of peach to leave the market. Due to lemons, or predatory journals, n
