Please don't take this personally but as constructive criticism.

I don't mind criticism.

It's obvious you're a coder

No, I am not.

you've failed to acknowledge/identify a couple of key problems (should have been the first step)....just helpful advice when you're trying to move up the chain in the future

In regards to your plan - I've read pages now and still have no solid Idea on how you propose to deal with the following problems:

Okay, let's see these problems

1.  Implementation - Just because a lot of money goes behind an idea, doesn't mean that its; A - Good for Bitcoin, B - Accepted by a majority, C -A clear priority.
What does the above have to do with my idea? I see no relation.

There's a reason the lobby and vote system exists in government and despite anarchist opinion, it's not to promote corruption... its to create an educated and well balanced debate that addresses all sides before a vote is cast on implementation.....how does your plan get to implementation in a fair and organized way?
What does the above have to do with my idea? I see no relation.

2.  Government Intervention - How do you plan to protect Bitcoin from this looming threat.
By separating soon-to-be politically involved TBF from Bitcoin system's development and (Bitcoin system development would be financed by the system users and TBF would have no influence over technical aspects).

I caution you that - "the we have more computing power than they do so what can they do" argument is painfully flawed.  When were talking about governments the size of the US, China, Russia, etc.... the paltry market cap of Bitcoin could easily be squashed by a multitude of options.   You need to acknowledge that this is a REALITY and then give us a plan that will address it.  
What are you talking about?

Throwing money at developers does not satisfactorily re-enforce Bitcoin.
I think you missed my point. I do not want to throw money at developers. I want to co-finance, through crowdfunding mechanism, particular tasks (e.g. feature development). The last thing I want is to throw money at developers and require nothing from them.

This war isn't going to be solely waged by computers over the internet in the near future....its going to face real push-back and sanctions from governments if we're not careful and it will affect us all.

War?! What war? What are you talking about? Who is ''we''?
