If I may stand on your soapbox for a moment, changing economics is the whole point of computers and software. We have Turing's Universal Machine, we have transistors. Science and capitalism have delivered technology and wealth. We won history. The obvious thing to do is apply our technology and resources to provide a basic level of quality of life to everyone (i.e. knockout the lower levels of Maslow's hierarchy.) Build a simple and efficient regenerative machine to provide food, shelter, clothing, some medicines, building material, etc. It would look like a neighborhood. Then people like Evan Czaplicki could just do whatever they wanted to without having to worry about making money. Also everybody else. We do this because: A) We can. B) Not to do so is cruel.
