The blockchain is a decentralized ledger.
And most of them are transparent.

Govern-cement funds need to become open and transparent.
Then they need to become... smart contracts.
As in, I paid $50 for the roads, and by golly, $50 should be applied to the roads, or returned to me.

And, the list of road fixing should be seeable.

So, the blockchain is building all of this infrastructure now. Yes, the immutable qualities of the blockchain are overkill, but once the smart contracts get worked out, why wouldn't you use it? It will become almost turn-key.

And, honestly, right now, anything would be an improvement. Govern-cements are BAD at money management, and the administrative fees are the largest part of any project.

Govern-cements are going to hate this. But, its going to be, swallow the blockchain pill or die.
