I do think I know actually where to set it up were the effect could be measured,, because the total economics is known. If you are wondering it is Malta,, all it has is a very small fishing industry (local) a small amount of farming (Ancient fields) and lastly a tourist industry which it depends.. There already is a long lasting charity .. The knights of Malta have been around for centuries so they would not be adverse to setting it up there.. especially if they got their 15% tax,,
It would be interesting to set up a fund that would take it from a backwater tourist destination without much going for it to a financial power house of the world..I may not see it but it would be kool.. as those that started it would be known historically..
Just a thought
