The purpose of a pyramid scheme is just money, but in no way it's „making“ money, instead, it's merely taking it away from others. Every player needs to recruit new players, who are to refund his financial input. The system breaks down, as soon as no more new players are found to get involved. Still, this must happen, since the number of reachable inhabitants of this world is limitted. Any pyramid scheme is fraud and justly prohibited.
The purpose of level-democracy is not money, but a new way of living. Only votes, guts and voices need to be invested, which is necessary in every democracy. Who wants to be heard, must speak. Once all of this world's voices are collected, the system will not break down, but instead of, it will have become ordinary, every day life, and indeed a very conscious way of living. At that time, our way of living will be the one that was intended, decided by a majority of our votes.
Still, the system of level-democracy will not end for this reason, but it will keep turning towards ever new aims, goals and means. In addition, our children and grandchilds are to be instructed, since they will be the new voters in this stage of the system's ripeness.
Finally, the system of level-democracy itself opens up ever new possibilities and chances, since it can change, plan or create any way of living. For this purpose steady structures need to persist, fit and apt to develop a common volition. These structure is achieved by all the groups of ten voters each. Such a regular group not only can react to any change in life's circumstances, e.g. in the economic system, or in society, but it can also start or initiate such a change. While the members and ends of a regular group might change, both will flow through this open structure, the structure itself will remain stable. This I think is a merit of level-democracy. It is a steady political and social system, harbouring changing tasks and personell.
Engaging an analogy, we might consider cell division, as it shows in plant's growing. Each regular group of ten voters is forming a cell, and will divide itself after having doubled its content. As the tasks grow more and more manifold, the cells will divide both labour and themselves, building according organs, and this way finally shaping the whole plant's structure. Having matured a plant will germinate, to form new cells, new plants.
On the day all plants on earth turn out to be mature, the system will not break down for this reason. Plants will not die out, just because they cannot become more plants, instead, they simply will have changed the world at that time, making the planet to their very home or habitat.
If we put on apt heads to plants and animals, men will just be acting alike. Men too is only a pursuit of the first cell. Though, men nowadays is carrying on life to a wrong end, namely to increase money. In terms of the planet's history this is but a foolishness, able to harm or even destroy life. So finally, level-democracy turns out to be necessary. It shall safe all life, by a change of the way we humans are living.
A level-pyramide like the one to be build here, it is a network of cognition and volition. Men finally will know what people are doing, since man will have decided both knowledge and activity in common. Men will not only live the result, but also will be the result. A conscious way of living shapes the person who shares and continues it. Work and master will be united then. We can say, in this ripe stage the first cell will not only have enlivened earth, but also will have made its followers clever enough to ever meet and unfold this goal.
