The Human Credit doesn't switch on all at once. It rolls out in phases, and the funding levers engage in sequence—each where it fits. (The levers themselves are detailed in Section 7.)
Objective: Prove the mechanism before crisis hits—a pilot in 3–5 diverse locations, 2–3 outcome categories, the assignment platform, and fraud policing in place. The launch levers are the gentle ones: voluntary tax offset (companies help to reduce tax they already owe), government non-delivery efficiency (no new bureaucracy), and a deliberately generous priming spread to attract the first providers. No rate hikes, no entitlement changes.
Triggered by successful pilot results or accelerating displacement. Congressional authorization; national platform. As displacement grows, windfall capture at the existing rate and the early work of closing tax-avoidance loopholes begin to fund the system, while the new human-services economy starts re-employing displaced workers. A bounded transition deficit bridges any gap—explicitly temporary.
Congress adjusts values annually as displacement rises; the system scales automatically. Closing avoidance matures into the main capacity multiplier, disinflation from AI productivity lowers the real cost of each outcome, and the priming spread tightens as competition matures. Legacy programs begin to phase down—only where the Human Credit demonstrably outperforms them—the start of entitlement redirect.
Other corporate deductions sunset, so the tax code simplifies toward profit minus Human Credit redemptions. Entitlement redirect reaches full effect as proven programs hand off to HC, the transition deficit has closed, and the system runs the AI Dividend surplus. End state: Corporate Profit − HC Redemptions = Tax Liability.
