I see what you mean, that's an interesting take on this. Now that I think of it, I think this would lead to marginalized communities being further marginalized if people not affected by them don't care about their well-being thus they get missed.

I'm not so sure. What the government has been pushing on people has caused so much poverty in the name of helping the poor.

We live on dirt, so our roads get flushed out at time, or just drive on and needs some fixing.

There are random people who live here who use their equipment to fix the parts they use, not even going around collecting money from the rest of us to help.

Churches with ministries are feeding and helping those who are stuck in addiction and living on the streets, and they wouldn't stop just because bitcoin takes over.

However, bitcoin incentives lower energy costs, more affordable housing (cause those who currently invest in houses will invest in bitcoin) and thus more people will be able to afford what they want and need to survive, and especially if bitcoin also gets to the healthcare system, people won't end up on the streets because they got sick or injured and needed to visit a hospital where the administration collects $10k for someone to get seen for 5 seconds and get an aspirin. Way more if anything else is going on, leading to more marginalized and hopeless people.

So, I think that if the world goes on a bitcoin standard there will be less marginalized people to begin with, and they'll actually be receiving assistance from people who care, rather than from the money printer who pretends to care yet only makes things worse for those people. (And everyone really) 😊

Can you tell I like bitcoin? 😅
