Solving this properly probably means solving how to pay for open source. I think it needs a somewhat complex scheme of pooling money together into an ad-hoc fund like entity and distributing it to service providers by someone elected for the task.

- worldsayshi 1y agoI think it's a very different problem than what welfare usually solves for us. Paying a doctor to treat patients is different from paying someone to build an MRI machine. We don't pay individual engineers there. So I don't think solving such complex problems within a welfare system is a solved problem at all. In Sweden we pride ourselves in health care for everyone. But we are quite bad at buying software systems for our welfare institutions.
