    What he may be up to is influencing the debate or making sure some if his issues are even mentioned even if he feels getting the nomination is highly unlikely.

    Whether he could be nominated isn't really that much of a concern, but he's certainly on to a problem society is facing. The seas are full of plastic, the future is difficult for everything, and everyone.

    You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Republicanguy again.

    Wow, what a great prize.

    Digital Social Credits
    Brief
    Volunteering at a local community center. Mentoring an at-risk youth. Starting a book club. Helping your friend recover from drug addiction. There are many actions that create positive social utility that are currently uncompensated.

    Enter Digital Social Credits (DSCs). This alternate currency would be tracked by an app and seeded, initially, by the government. After that, local administrators would oversee the program.

    You could earn DSCs through:

    Volunteering at a local shelter
    Participating in a town fair
    Coaching little league
    Fixing a neighbor’s appliance
    Working with those recovering from opiate addiction
    Tutoring a local student
    and a range of other activities that make your community stronger.

    We’ve seen the power of these awards systems to drive behavior through online communities, “free sandwich” punch cards, and special status (e.g. Yelp Elite, Foursquare mayors, etc.).

    Each citizen would have a running tally, along with an “unspent” total. As noted above, you could offer DSCs to a neighbor for watering your plants or taking your mail in while you’re away. But there could also be specific promotions where you could trade in your DSCs for special experiences, such as tickets to a local ball game or meeting with a government or civic leader.

    I doubt everything Mr Yang would happen, anymore if a Libertarian was elected, no candidate will get what they want done, it will be a compromise.
