The two main reasons "nothing stops this train" are math (the constructed Ponzi system that requires constant growth) and human nature (nobody wants higher taxes, and politicians lack incentive to cut deficits). The flexible ledger of the current system allows them to create more units as an "error correction," which they "keep falling back on over and over again".

This system is contrasted with Bitcoin, which represents "absolute scarcity," transparency, and an error correction of deleveraging without altering the unit itself.
