Advanced discription of Hobbeebian Economy and monetary system:
Hobbeebian Economy - a closer look
Hobbeebia as a nation is a very self-sufficent nation with little or no need for forgien
trade to help boost an economy that has no effect on internal monetary value. This is
accomplished by producing almost eclusively as an exporting nation, and importing nothing.
By design the nation operates as if they money being used by its citizens is actually
worth something, and it is within the nation itself. Money or Amulets as they are called,
are gained by a person or persons who works for the Government, within a government
ran company. The workers accumulate work hour credits which are translated into Amulets
with a base value that appears to equal the base value of the USD 1 Dallor. As
Stated above with the nation itself they are worth this amount.
So what has been accomplished? Simple. The nation of Hobbeebia has created an
economy that is completely void of actual currency that is woth nothing on the outside,
but worth everything inside, which as an export producing nation, allows the citizens to buy
from the government owned companies as if they had real money. the Items bought are surplus
products from which the citizens helped to make. The money or assets earned from export,
Along with the gold and silver mined from the nations land are what is used in
determining the nations current monetary value. As stated above being an export nation
little or no resources are required to operate thus allowing the nation to build a powerful
reserve of funds while not losing anything is all actuallity.
Example:
Citizen A works for Government company A for 40 hours. This citizen has earned roughly
500 Amulets in which he or she may spend at Government Company B. No actual fund have
been exchanged, more like a simple trade... like I work for food, and cloths, and a
house, and a car, and everything else. If the nation doesn't produce an item, the
nation buys the item with it reserves and sells it within the nation within
Government Company C.
I hope this helps you all understand my nation better.
