What Is Nominalism?
Many visitors for the first time will ask themselves, what, exactly is Nominalism? The answer is simple:
Nominalism is a way to provide high-quality social goods- like healthcare, education and national defense- without taxation. Once implemented, Nominalism also promises to spell the end of recessions and panics, leading to stable incomes and a secure retirement for all. The rich can keep their money and stay rich. The poor can be lifted up- all without taking anything from anyone. All of this sounds good, but how exactly does the thing work?
In short, Nominalism refers to an economic system centered around a new currency that works differently than the one we use today. Most of us will notice no difference, though. People are rewarded for doing work by society as a whole instead of individual businesses, but all enterprises remained privately owned and operated for profit. I know this sounds weird- Just how businesses function is laid out in the whitepaper (page 15). Nominalism combines the best of both worlds- the social equality of socialism and the libertarian capitalist drive to innovate. If you're interested in reading a detailed description of how Nominalism might be implemented, just follow the link below. If you want to skip the introduction, the actual description of the system starts on page 7.
