Tlbic Policy Proposal v10.0: Designing bottom-up governance for basic income

TLBIC (Time-Limited Local Basic Income Credit) is a proposed basic income system with three core mechanisms: it expires after a few months to prevent hoarding; it requires no application (support is automatically delivered before a person needs to ask); and it is restricted to the local economy and non‑speculative use. Its purpose is structural—to reduce the despair that comes from feeling there is no way out. This is one attempt to address the systemic despair that contributes to the nearly 20,000 lives lost to suicide in Japan every year.

Due to the resource constraints of free‑tier AIs—where complex multi-part texts caused the AI to hit its limits or give superficial responses—I've restructured the proposal into three parts, so each one is easier to read and discuss on its own:

(1) Main Document

(2) Appendix: “Examining Bottom-Up Governance”

(3) Supplement: “Why I Wrote the TLBIC Policy Proposal”

Update: I have added “The Dynamic Boundaries of the Gray Zone from a Legal Perspective” to Appendix 2, and “Prompt 5: The Cycle of Hatred and Questions About Human Worth” to the Supplement. I welcome your feedback.

One thing I can't verify myself: whether the English reads naturally to a native ear. If anything feels off or unclear, I'd genuinely like to know.
