Thank you for your reply that increased my understanding ....

Yes ... it would likely have to be an alt-coin ....

Lets say that there is an activity that needs to be funded that would be great for society ...

Instead of creating coin by mining .... alt-coin would be created to fund the activity.

The vendors would be paid using the alt-coin and that alt-coin would stay in circulation.

I just have no idea how to code it .... I wish i did .... i would start on it today.

this may be against a major part of bitcoin, however can the bitcoin coding be changed so that the bitcoin community can vote on creation of more bitcoin and it can be done in an automated transparant way. If so, what specific changes in code have to be made.

thank you for your serious consideration of my question
