Flocking Variables :)

I've put together a little chart for anyone interested in helping me trying to model this vote-scaling idea. I know very little about how to do it, but my guess that what we're looking at here is a flocking simulation; with a set amount of people populating the landscape and the wealth and materials flocking around according to the peoples changing income. Not only do the different income levels determine the acquiring of goods; but also who produces how much, and who can afford to invest their disposal income and stop working. Also, of course, is the role of the scaled vote which regulates distribution of goods, and the opposing role of investment income doing it's part to control the distribution flow.

I'm happy to explain, or debate the proper placement of these lines. I have only roughly drawn them on the chart for the time being, but I'm sure that working out specific formulas would not be that difficult. One of the more interesting aspects of the Fair Choice is that now, at least, we can discuss our differing perspectives in real terms - these seemingly inconspicuous little lines on a graph.
