RE: Cryptocurrency Proposal for a Global Charitable Distribution Blockchain
You beat me to this comment, @necrophagist. All the while reading this I thinking of maybe we getting the chance to implement a functional universal basic income in an effort to fight world poverty by redistributing wealth. Great positing, Crypto. I'll keep tabs with the debate as people who qualify to even think of this in technical terms weigh in. Resteemed.
Hey there new/old friend. Just wanted to pick your brain as to this universal income idea. I am familiar with it and I think many governments around are at least looking at various proposals. I know there's some test projects in certain specific regions in my country.
What I want to ask you is your opinion on what issue is most pressing that you think could be solved with real money and real direction in your part of the world. Whether that be medical, housing, food, clean water, education or something else most of us haven't thought of.
Do you feel that corruption has gone so far as to reach even the volunteers that help make the actual getting things done with the existing money that's being funneled from the givers through the takers and then on to the actual causes that people think they're giving of their money for. I've heard stories.
I think everybody would agree that the world should see to it that everyone has the right to the basics in life and that those rights are strictly protected. To me that would constitute a form of universal basic income.
Interested in hearing your thoughts @misterakpan.
