I don't think we need to overthrow the state. That's the old way and in many ways is falling into the state's trap. I think we need to evade it until it withers and dies.

I agree, no fights, time is on our site.

Pretty hard to evade at-source income tax deductions. They’ve turned all employers into collectors.

Good point. Can't evade it completely. Can only do our best

I asked my employer if at the very least I could administer my own deductions and just pay at tax time and their payroll software won’t even permit it anymore if you’re coded as an employee. The only answer is being a contractor for the same company but then my insurance, accounting, vehicle payment and corporate tax would be about equal to what I’m paying now. I feel like the matrix really has us, especially when it’s so easy to pin a guy down at a fixed address at a home they can also take if he evades tax. It’s almost time to exit stage left and go live in the bush. It’s a dilemma when you have dependents.

Very well said

Licensed businesses are now enforcement agencies for the state. Any relevant infrastructures needs to be taken into our own hands.

The frontier moved on to other spaces where they can not see your every move.

The big challenge I’m finding is that while I do have marketable skills, capitalizing on them while not still doing jobs for businesses that track every invoice can’t get me even half the income I’m making at the fiat mine. They’ve really got us. Especially once you’re all mortgaged up.

Many before you chose to ignore civic duties … hence now.

But sure … you do you. Not everyone is meant to face problems head on. Cowards should flee.

Many will never understand the price others have paid for them to be able to live blissful in willful ignorance.

What civic duties? Be specific

Find a way to benefit the majority of humanity.

I’m speaking specifically about the USA 🇺🇸 & this countries lack of holding our government accountable.

Whichever country you live in you would know best what civic duties mean.

Oh okay. I'm not sure exactly how that relates to my point but sounds fair enough

#Bitcoin is a way to improve the state - make it accountable and resilent ..

Whether we overthrow the state or not, evading it, disobeying it, letting it die is the best course of action no matter what.

And that is exactly where Monero comes into play. Without it, Bitcoin is not fit for the job.

Black and white. Yin and yang.

One can not exist without the other.

Solar and lunar punk.

I need to start using Monero 🤔

If you are ready you will do.

Also a recommendation for Amethyst users is to install "Garnet" instead as it comes with an integrated Monero wallet (and still has zaps enabled).

Interesting thoughts 🤔 Fren

Thanks fren 🫂
