    Maybe, but a local credit union could create the money as a loan and it gets spent into the economy for a socially necessary purpose, which, counter-intuitively, does much more good than volunteers (setting aside the idea that paid workers are more reliable than volunteers). Technical solutions for all our problems already exist, finding them is not the issue, the issue is the political will to enact these ideas, which is just not there as a result of class war (which imo has also created the conditions that you can’t find enough people with the time & money to volunteer for this size task). My 2c.
