    Brief Description:

    Ideas around SSE money and finance rarely question the money system, and how it binds us to the economy we would depart from.
    With a proper understanding of money and credit, it should be possible for SSE actors to make agreements which increase internal trade, reduce borrowing costs, and pool risk. We have developed an accounting system which takes mutual credit to the next level, allowing nesting of independent groups up to an arbitrary number, but is anyone ready for it?
