This model illustrates the current practice and consequences of government spending. Following the direction of the arrows from right to left the model shows the following sequence based on current practice:

Government Spending at a certain point leads to spending in excess of tax receipts. This will automatically lead to the issue of treasuries in the belief that the excess spending must be financed by borrowing (although the government has the capacity to create  money). This in turn will increase the national debt.

 Consequences that follow from this practice:

1) That national debt increases whenever the government spends in excess of tax receipts.

2) That the government must pay interest on the debt issued, which in turn increases and reinforces the need for government spending.

3) That the interest paid on treasuries will increase private sector income.

There is an alternative view, supported by Modern Monetary Theory, of how government spending can proceed. Please see this  Insight:

This paper aims at describing a case where system dynamics modeling was used to evaluate the effects of information and material supply lead-time variation on sales contributions margins and operating cash conversion cycle of a commodity export business.  An empirical dynamic model, loaded with econometric theory of price effect on competitive demand, was used to describe the input data.  The model simulation outputs proved themselves relevant in analyzing the complex interconnections of multiple variables affecting  the profitability in a commercial routine, supporting the decision process among sales managers.

Simple model of the global economy, the global carbon cycle, and planetary energy balance.

The planetary energy balance model is a two-box model, with shallow and deep ocean heat reservoirs. The carbon cycle model is a 4-box model, with the atmosphere, shallow ocean, deep ocean, and terrestrial carbon. 

The economic model is based on the Kaya identity, which decomposes CO2 emissions into population, GDP/capita, energy intensity of GDP, and carbon intensity of energy. It allows for temperature-related climate damages to both GDP and the growth rate of GDP.

This model was originally created by Bob Kopp (Rutgers University) in support of the SESYNC Climate Learning Project.

Also, everything in the agent folder cannot be displayed as its own primitive, so you can't see their individual outputs. We need to make agent states that simply have the [primitive title] as their code.

The purpose of this model intends to supply common methods of measuring a population in a formal structure or known delivery model (as is). 


WICKED - student in an experienced based project
Ideally, a new education offer where students can model their community needs based on the population grouped in age appropriate sectors. 

Various needs are currently aggregated by these groups and therefore mapping the current offer to the new offers might be done by creating the vector or variables on either side of the stock and flow link. 

The model can best show the way a zip code maps the specific values into a city, county, state or nation. 

  • How many people are located in Geographical Information Systems? 
  • How many people are located in a zip code? 

The insight maker tool offers a host of simulation methods or adding in the details about the population allows the modeler an opportunity to simulate proposed changes.  

If we assume the stock and flow diagram is staged by any high school student in advanced courses, community college, university student or professional development program. Ideally, credits and nominal wages are paid to increase the economic development of those with the greatest need. 

Supporting the community wellness to happiness can be measured based on

Using a simulation model with generic variables enables others who adopt the model to expand upon the generic for local preferences with the assumption that the definitions are not altered at the generic layer.  

The outputs from the models must be retained for ongoing use as a national input (international if agreements can be attained) for the social responsibility metric and gauge of equal balance within the education systems.  

Those with the greatest need can be identified by the population density by zip code as done in 1998 in Escutia legislation for California.  

Zip Codes are static-population density by various variables are dynamic by Nation, State, County, City and school.

Policy decisions which enable state or national networks of schools that work are an option for transforming schools.
Rocket ship education reached a landmark decision to open 20 new charter schools over a 3 year period. 

  • In cases where a district spans more than one district or city we must adopt the county metric.
