Re: [libreplanet-discuss] Truly decentralized/federated software development platforms?

This is general problem, not a software problem, best solved by social policy.  
All of us have something we like to do that we wish we could earn a living 
from.  Perversely enough, rich and powerful people use the "feed your family" 
argument to restrict us, which gives them more power and us less ability to  
make a living.  Society should provide the basics, food, shelter, medical 
care, for everyone with something like a basic income guarantee paid for by 
progressive taxation.
