If there's no workers in filler jobs and no one's seeking loans or currently paying back loans then the system owners and employees wouldn't be getting paid so perhaps it is best that their pay is an amount taken out in taxes. If one wants to enter the system they agree to pay this tax amount...
The filler job facilities should be designed to be as energy efficient and autonomous (not requiring lots of service people or regulateers or whatever) as possible. This would help keep the tax amount down...

Hmmm... if business owners try to get at the savings of filler workers, in particular for example, by rainsing prices, like for necessities and stuff, I think it could only go so far because filler workers can only work so much... It wouldn't be good business to set the price so high that people couldn't afford so it'd come back down. Plus there should always be some other businesses that wouldn't do that and all the customers would flock to them...

If filler workers earn a living wage (whatever a living wage is in a period of time) then they shouldn't be able to outbid necessary workers (who should be getting more money anyway) so their earned money shouldn't be any type of inflation causing money... ::shrugs::

Junk is relative. I just hope people try to govern themselves and not try to create and disseminate what they think is junk.

In the current system if we were to allow a recession and not try to save companies and so jobs or try to create jobs I think the current system too would eventually stabalize and the resulting smaller economy would work fine for those in it and would probably eventually through want and need start to expand, so opening up necessary jobs and allowing some from outside the system to enter and take part in it. The problem with this is that those outside the system with no means to take part in it could be gettin' hungrier and hungrier. This is why there's a scramble to create jobs.
The new system solves this problem for all and with no waste or inefficiencies and should prevent the economy from getting too small (if that's important to some) and can allow for more wealthy business people... Also, no one's forced to give any of their money or possessions to help those without employment...

Another reason for words and compound words could be fluidity. If a language relies on pauses to seperate words then joining, for example, two words into one eliminates a pause and so can make the speech more fluid or rhythmic they might say. Example: pzprsf - t - vw - t*ok - b - d - avom - c as pzprsf - t - vwlet*ok - b - d - avom - c
Hmmm... perhaps that's why some languages agglutinate entire phrases and sentences (treat them as words)...
It may indeed hinder brevity to use an affix seperateer where it is not needed to reduce morphemes (but on the contrary adds them) but brevity may not be the only reason for the use. Fluidity may be another. ...Actually, through this fluidity one may achieve brevity. Not through the elimination of phonemes and graphemes but through the elimination of some of the time needed to pronounce...
