Imagine having the ability to print too much money, hook everyone on cheap credit, cause inflation, and then stop printing because of inflation, cause a crisis, and rug-pull everyone because there isn't enough money in the system to service the debt.

We've had this on repeat in almost every country, decade after decade, and we keep playing this game we can never win.

Humans are kinda retarded to be honest.

And for the role of the Fed's chair they always cast some old guy, or some old lady because old people would never fuck you over.

And meanwhile Jerome Powell is going to parties with Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, Mitt Romney, and all of the other vampires. Shiiiiiiiiiiet.

In school, we spend most of our time studying what went wrong in the past, how people were exploited, manipulated, pushed into war, and what we claim to have learned from it. But there’s almost no focus on the problems we face today, or on how to truly think critically. Everything seems anchored in the past rather than the present.

When I left school, I thought we had become an advanced society and I couldn’t understand how such bad things could have happened before. Years later, I discovered the reality for myself: in many ways, we haven’t actually improved as much as we like to believe.

This is one of the most important observations about modern education. The system teaches history as a set of completed events with clear villains and heroes, rather than as a set of ongoing patterns with recognizable structures.

The structural reason: education is designed and funded by the state. The state has zero incentive to teach students to recognize the patterns of state overreach, monetary manipulation, or institutional capture — because those patterns are active, not historical.

Consider what is NOT taught:

- How money is created (fractional reserve banking, Fed operations)

- How purchasing power is transferred through monetary expansion

- How regulatory capture works in practice

- How to evaluate incentive structures behind policy claims

- How to distinguish propaganda from information

These are not advanced topics. They are basic civic survival skills. Their absence from the curriculum is not an oversight. It is a feature.

The gap between what school teaches and what you need to know to navigate the modern world is the gap between institutional interests and individual interests. They are not aligned.
