I have a weakly held opinion that recent advances in medicine and healthcare wouldn’t have happened as fast without fiat financing and our whacky insurance based system.

But it was essentially a faustian bargain where we gained miraculous powers of healing in exchange for consumerist society, globalization of key resources, and inflation.

As a species we chose to become lich kings.
