Challenge Description

Why
Private property is at the heart of the capitalist system and has many advantages, not the least in incentivizing investment. But private ownership often puts profit before the community. Socialists believe all property is a common good, and so should always be put to the most productive common purpose. But socialists can struggle to identify what the most productive purpose is and to motivate people to pursue it. At RadicalxChange, we think it’s possible to get the best of both approaches to property. One way is via Self-Assessed Licenses Sold at Auction (SALSA), also called COST. Under SALSA, everyone pays a tax on their licenses / property rights, based on what they think it is worth – but must also be prepared to sell it to anyone willing to offer their price. While it sounds radical at first, SALSA is a very good way to take a fresh look at what it means to possess something and to evaluate what a thing is really worth.

What
To encourage broader experimentation and adoption of this mechanism more people need to learn about its underlying magic as well as advantages compared to current, alternative property systems. In this challenge, we ask you to create an entertaining two-minutes or less video that helps people understand the mechanics and benefits of SALSA. The winning video will serve as one of the major sources for introductory information about SALSA.

We are open to all kinds of approaches but want you to comply with our design guidelines in case you add self-made animations or text. Here are the corresponding design guidelines. Let us know if we can help you find the colors and fonts.

Background

Submission Requirements

The video format should be 1080 pixels at 30 frames per second. The duration should not exceed two minutes.

Ideally, you will upload your video to a dedicated Google Drive and submit the corresponding link. Alternatively, we will accept submissions via other cloud providers as well.

The RadicalxChange Foundation reserves all rights for further use of the winning video in this challenge, with due credit of course.

Submission Deadline

All submissions must be received no later than 11:59 PM (ET) on June 10th, 2020 to be considered.

Judging Criteria

We are looking for a coherent video explanation of SALSA that we can flexibly fit into different channels at the RadicalxChange Foundation. We will award the prize to the individual / team that produces the most compelling and entertaining video explanation in line with our design guidelines.

Winner Announcement Date

We will assess submissions from June 11th to 17th, 2020. Winners will be announced by 11:59 PM (ET) on June 17th, 2020.

Work has been started.

These users each claimed they can complete the work by 1 year, 8 months ago.
Please review their action plans below:

1) rymnc has started work.

Will look into animation and doing a voice over for the video explanation, Crash course history types!
2) nestorbonilla has started work.

The video will aim to be concise, full of animation, and intended for an audience without knowledge of this topic, explaining the traditional approaches, and viewing its shortcomings, to illustrate the concept of SALSA.
