If the government provided every citizen with free internet, and free phone/computers ... to remain educated* citizens, with access to government resources (lets say).
If this were to happen; over night ... the tech industry would boom. All those people, getting all those devices, all connected to the internet, ... preinstalled with who knows what.
It'd speed us into a new era ... where you should be given the technology you need to survive; because, after all, companies are the ones that make all the money off of you owning it...
You go to the store and pay for the pleasure of the device, then pay to have it have service, ... then those companies in turn sell and trade and barter all that information for even more money.
In any event; if a few companies that can just print money ... would stop ... the entire economy of the world would go up by a shit load.
I'd put money on the investment paying off ... if companies themselves were only willing to pay the taxes, and share in the burden, that could profit them in such a way... profit us all.
God knows how many republications of 1984 would be written at that point; but in reality, it'd be a chance for a larger break from how close we are to some kinda acid trip version of 1984.
Imagine how many more bitcoins we'd have.
