Thank you!

My idea will not have that side-effect because not only is the project non-profit and open source, but it is also decentralised. And if we keep thinkng of a dystopian future then we won't be able to do anything positive unless we become some sort of social revolutionaries. I don't have those skills. But I can think of small ideas to make a positive impact that benefits everyone though. The idea I listed in my original post above is very simple, it helps teachers, lecturers, or anyone who contibutes to a persons monetary decent life via education get appropriately paid for their efforts, and everyone(i.e. businesses) who benefits from an educated person should contribute towards that.
It is a simple idea but notoriously diffcult to deploy because there is a possibility of this getting caught up in a political slugfest.
