Be careful when mixing Philanthropy, Technology, and Sociological reform.

The real danger comes after you have succeeded.

These things cost real honest money to do correctly.

Unfortunately, history is filled with examples of good will projects using leading technologies that start out seeming perfect.

However these almost always get hammered on the anvil of avarice and greed into failures of insane proportions.

Social Security and Medicare were both supposed to resolve all issues with retirement and elderly care. Now somehow none of this money will be used as intended because politicians and uninitiated used philanthropic ideals to divert the funds elsewhere.

Even recent technological history shows me that large scale use of anything philanthropic shared freely ends up being something I have to pay way to much for later.

example - Internet
