Yes, but wouldn't everyone just stay in their own region the entire time?  
One thing I would say about this is that it would work better if it were 
tied into The Grid (if it passes).  That way, people would have a reason to 
go out and explore (shiny objects).  Interesting idea, but I would say it 
needs a little thinking through and nitpicking (bean?).
