We think about money all the time. If the money is corrupt, unethical, and unsound our critical thinking faculties become distorted. The system, and the money are unstable. We undergo booms and busts that are directly linked to the expansion and contraction of the supply of money within the economy.
We are constantly thinking about acquiring money, but more importantly, keeping it. Whether it be an unconscious or conscious decision we attempt to maintain its value and cancel out the effects of loss of purchasing power.
This normalizes risk taking, unethical behavior and high time preference. We are distracted on a daily basis by having to become money managers. It becomes a matter of survival.
As a result, many of us become too occupied with survival to seek truth about the variety of divisive narratives being pushed on us by governments, mega corporations and the privileged.
In such an environment, most don’t have time to critically think, busy trying to make ends meet and taking risks to maintain the purchasing power of the money, they become zealots.
#Bitcoin fixes this.
