2/5: "...engineer more benign social environments w/ simple, targeted taxes & subsidies, calibrated to amplify contagion effects, rather than w/ complex, intrusive regulation," we'll have to look at integrating such measures w/in a multi-level selection evolutionary framework.
3/5: A prominent example of this is Prosocial.world's application of Elinor #Ostrom's eight principles of cooperative behavior w/in this evolutionary framework, in a scalable manner. Also take a look at the following: amazon.com/This-View-Life… & amazon.com/Prosocial-Evol…
