Very cool, I like your vision, sounds very useful, thanks for posting. Too true also most mainstream economics is bullshit.

I love some of those open data sites also, one of my favs is "the world counts" (Tho I am not sure how open it is), it does help open our eyes to the stupendous potential of solar power.

On economics, to detox it, I think it is also essential to align currency with energy. Proof of work crypto already does that, but we will likely always have a need for fiat currencies, just as we probably all need individual personal currencies to represent our own selves.

The really fundamental fault with money as capital, rather than money as energy, as I think it will become very soon, it that people are not automatically connected to the energy we each need, because the supply of energy to each of us is dependent on someone else providing what we need. They can have the power of life or death over us, by wielding capital, and things really shouldn't work like that. We've known it for thousands of years, this system of slavery, but never found a way to break it, until now.

Using the energy of the sun truly changes everything, since the input to the system now is becoming more and more energy donated from the sun for free, free money has to be issued to all people to correctly reflect it, and thus preserve value in the currency.

Imagine the positive productivity of all individuals receiving all energy they need to reach their full potential, it will be a very different world.

We have to, and are moving to "Energyism", as a natural result of going solar powered, it seems to me.

Here is my take on bullshit industry:
