"The immense value of cultivating, enhancing, and openly sharing digital commons" - What can other governments (in LAC and beyond) learn from the @OpenFisca experience? medium.com/@cifuentes.aura/h…@CifuentesAura
ALT La mise à disposition des algorithmes et codes sources n'est pas une tâche complexe, même si le nombre des recettes et des mesures venant les réduire, de différences de situations des assurés ou contribuables, etc. peut rendre cette tâche fastidieuse.
Une étape supplémentaire pourrait être de contribuer à un simulateur de l'ensemble de la législation socio-fiscale, dont le principal avantage est de permettre de calculer les interdépendances entre les différentes mesures de réduction de recettes de la sécurité sociale d'une part, et entre ces dernières et leurs pendants fiscaux d'autre part.
Un simulateur comme OpenFisca pourrait être considéré comme une infrastructure utile à l'évaluation à laquelle les administrations pourraient contribuer pour mutualiser les efforts de publication qu'il reste à faire dans le champ social.

Parti pour m'amuser avec @OpenFisca, j'ai fini par créer un outil pour mes conversations entre amis. 2 ans plus tard, j'ai lancé un logiciel de compta et déclarations de revenus, embauché 9 employés et loué un étage entier pour l'entreprise. Qui aurait cru ?! 🚀💼
