Is runaway interest on student loans actually a prevalent issue in America? If so, I do think that government intervention might be good. nostr:note1t2a48eq2qzhhwu8jp7tek8z8ufu06v0g52h933t9hrcn66v6fdmsa80k9u

I am all for reckless fiat spending, as it encourages more reckless fiat spending.

Are you American? One thing that worries me about bitcoin is that it almost feels like taking a short position against the United States 😬

Watched. I can certainly imagine an America that uses bitcoin instead of usd. How that transition occurs seems to be an important question. You think it will go smooth?
I wouldn’t dare predict how a complex system behaves as it shifts away from a system based on time theft to one that respects property rights.
All I can do is spend my limited time & energy in building a better system for future generations.
Not so fast! I agree that we can’t predict the future, but it is a choice whether to give attention to a transition plan. Isn’t a smooth transition something worth investing in?
1) central planning and complex systems are incompatible
2) however you have agency over yourself. Personally I am spending my limited time & energy to build tools that make the transition easier. This choice is made one way or the other by everyone.
Ok, I think we agree by and large. I wasn’t trying to convince you to spend your time and energy on something in particular. But you provided a response to a concern I shared so I figured you wanted to talk about it.
You have alleviated some of that concern but I still have reservations.
Also, love that we have Biden’s threads account in this chain haha
Great job Joe 👍
