Living Systems Institute believes that projects should be based on three simple rules:
1 - Everyone gets to make their own decisions. That means that we cannot expect anyone to participate unless we can make it worth their while.
2 - Whatever we do is open to all residents. That means that we will find a way to participate for everyone who wants to participate.
3 - We measure progress by the diversity of participation. That means we are doing a good job at 1 and 2.
David Braden As far as I can tell neither group was organized as a coop with the people who gave labor having the power to set the direction. The central issue is who has the power to make decisions. Even with the principle of those who put in labor have the power to make decisions, you get elites naturally growing. Effective decision making is centralized. It truly is a wicked problem.
To the extent that the problem of the tendency to elites can be solved, the benefits of participating in the market, outweigh the costs and risks. Just one man's opinion.

Requirements for Collective Intelligence
- Diversity
- the more varied the individual expertise, the more comprehensive the collective knowledge
- Aggregation
- individual contributions must be synthesized into global solution
- Independence
- no individuals or subgroups should be able to bias the result
- Decentralization (distribution)
- Different individuals should be able to work on different parts of the problem
