TBF Abundance Score
-59.9
Evidence before Abundance Gate +32.2
How the headline score is calculated

Evidence before Gate = Σ (published category score × category weight × research coverage) ÷ Σ (category weight × research coverage). The five-part Money Gate sets a proportional ceiling, with Friction already in the category evidence score.

Current evidence: +32.2 · Money Gate: 4.25/20 · Cash-register lock: +78.8 · Graded pressure: +78.8 · Headline: -59.9.

The fully detailed gate formula is explained in the Money Gate method; no international score can independently clear it.

Research Coverage

Coverage calculation

Sum of each published category weight × its documented scoring coverage ÷ 100. The percentage measures completed scoring slots, not independent verification of every claim. For the current country:

9.0 × 100.0% + 8.0 × 100.0% + 9.0 × 100.0% + 6.0 × 100.0% + 5.0 × 100.0% + 7.0 × 100.0% + 6.0 × 100.0% + 4.0 × 100.0% + 8.0 × 100.0% + 5.0 × 100.0% + 6.0 × 100.0% + 6.0 × 100.0% + 5.0 × 100.0% + 4.0 × 100.0% + 6.0 × 80.0% + 6.0 × 78.0% = 97.48% weighted coverage

Five basics stand between this country and zero

All five basics must reach 4/4 before a country can cross zero. Open any gate reading to see exactly why its points were assigned and review the source record.

0.5 / 4

Food

Why 0.5 / 4?

PM POSHAN funds a daily cooked meal for eligible children in government and aided schools, not general household free meals.

Point calculation

0.50 ÷ 4 × 100 = 12.50% of this Money Gate rail. Five rails together can earn 20/20.

Points are assigned from the verified no-payment access rubric and actual national reach, not from the percentage alone.

1.0 / 4

Housing / Land

Why 1.0 / 4?

PMAY-U 2.0 gives subsidies and may give some landless families state-issued land rights, but most homes are constructed or purchased with additional resources.

Point calculation

1.00 ÷ 4 × 100 = 25.00% of this Money Gate rail. Five rails together can earn 20/20.

Healthcare

Why 2.0 / 4?

Public Ayushman Arogya Mandir primary care is free to users and PM-JAY cashless hospitalization covers eligible households; coverage and eligibility limit universal access.

Point calculation

2.00 ÷ 4 × 100 = 50.00% of this Money Gate rail. Five rails together can earn 20/20.

Transportation

Why 0.3 / 4?

Some states provide fare-free public buses to specific groups; most ordinary travel still involves payment and there is no all-India unconditional free route.

Point calculation

0.25 ÷ 4 × 100 = 6.25% of this Money Gate rail. Five rails together can earn 20/20.

Water / Energy

Why 0.5 / 4?

Rooftop-solar subsidies can produce up to 300 monthly units without a net energy charge for enrolled households; installation/eligibility and billed grid use constrain reach.

0.50 ÷ 4 × 100 = 12.50% of this Money Gate rail. Five rails together can earn 20/20.

Grey means points not yet earned toward fully money-free basic life—not a cash price or currency sum.

Why 4.3 / 20?

The Money Gate total is the sum of the five direct 0–4 readings. Every basic need remains visible separately so one strong area cannot hide another weak one.

Actual calculation

Food 0.50 + Housing / Land 1.00 + Healthcare 2.00 + Transportation 0.25 + Water / Energy 0.50 = 4.25 / 20

A country remains money-gated until the total reaches 20 / 20.

Cash-Register Lock
78.8 / 100
Why 78.8 / 100?

The five direct Money Gate readings total 0–20. Every point removes five of the 100 payment-lock units; a 7/20 reading produces a 65/100 lock.

Actual calculation

100 - (4.25 × 5) = 78.75

Friction Economy Pressure
78.0 / 100
Why 78.0 / 100?

Friction is visible as its own 0–100 contextual reading from domestic category rails. Its effect is already in the evidence score and is not applied to the ceiling again.

Actual calculation

(100 - -56.08) ÷ 2 = 78.04 / 100

The weighted Friction rail comes from the published domestic category rails.

Money-gated ceiling
-39.4
Why -39.4?

Each Money Gate point raises the negative ceiling by 2.5 points: 0/20 → −50, 7/20 → −32.5, 10/20 → −25, 19.5/20 → −1.25. At 20/20 the gate is removed, so the evidence score becomes the headline directly.

Actual calculation

78.75 = 78.75 (Friction already counted in category scores)

-50 + 2.5 × 4.25 = -39.4

Family Formation — two-part calculation and marriage-law criterion

First half — the established family and fertility assessment

The original family score remains available. It combines 60% conditions for family life with 40% observed total fertility performance. Its source research is preserved.

Pre-policy score: +32.8

Second half — binary marriage-law policy criterion

This is a Trott Bailey Family policy preference, not an estimate of births lost. Recognition: −50 points. Reviewed non-recognition: 0 deduction. An unreviewed status stays pending and causes no deduction.

Country legal status: Not recognized in reviewed legal-status evidence

Deduction calculation: 50 × 0 = 0 points

Final category calculation: +32.8 − 0 = +32.8 (clamped to −100..+100, before any independent material-transfer deductions)

2023 Supreme Court Supriyo decision declined to read marriage recognition into the Special Marriage Act; legislative recognition was not established. This is a legal-status finding, not a measured effect on fertility.

Fertility and family policy: research and source notes

Trott Bailey Family target and observed fertility The 5.0-children-per-woman target is an authored civilization benchmark; approximately 2.1 children per woman is the usual long-run replacement benchmark. The existing Family Formation method blends 60% lived family conditions and 40% measured fertility performance.

How policy is evaluated Assess housing, care, parental time, material security, access to family formation, and actual demographic outcomes. A government statement or law is not proof that national births increased or declined. Establish its effects with dated comparative evidence before assigning points.

How the two kinds of evidence differ The binary legal-status deduction is an authored TBF policy assessment, not a statistic of observed births. Carroll and Schumm argue that marriage-law changes can weaken procreative norms, while other empirical studies find no negative effect on different-sex family formation. This disagreement is disclosed rather than presented as scientific consensus.

Carbon emissions are substantial; the precise cross-border consumption and production allocation is not fully proven from a single series.

The research identified measurable carbon-footprint and outward-development indicators, but not a complete current ledger that attributes India’s overseas environmental damage, labour burdens, extraction, waste transfers and offsetting benefits with enough consistency for a neutral category score. The category therefore remains researched but unscored rather than manufacturing precision.

Global Carbon Budget data published through Our World in Data report India’s consumption-based fossil-fuel and industry CO₂ emissions at about 2.54 billion tonnes in 2023. Territorial emissions are reported separately at about 3.19 billion tonnes in 2024.

Trott Bailey Family Civilization Target

The end state: life beyond monetary gatekeeping

Trott Bailey Family Civilization treats money as an exchange tool rather than a prerequisite for access to life. The long-run abundance target is that food, water, shelter, care, education, mobility, land access and ordinary public life remain reachable even when a person cannot pay.

This target is an authored civilization standard. The diagnostic evidence score can use all sixteen weighted categories: fourteen domestic plus International Welcome (6%) and External Footprint (6%), when each international category has four verified rail scores and dated source evidence. Unreviewed international rails remain pending, not zero. The five-part Money Gate remains a separate domestic threshold asking whether food, housing/land, healthcare, transportation and water/energy are genuinely reachable without payment before any civilization can cross zero.
