Existence exists.

It is not a law.

The Dao that can be told is not the eternal Dao.

Ceci n'est pas une pipe.

Do you get it?

Your image of reality is not reality.

Reality is reality.

"Your image of reality is not reality"

Yes, the map is not the territory, but some maps are right, & some are wrong, & some are useful & some are not.

Maps can still help us better operate in & appreciate existence. I don't trust my mental map over what reality is telling me, it seems kinda like you & Peter Schiff prefer your ideological mental maps over what the real world has to say on this issue.

I'll homestead the territory and you homestead the map and we'll see whose perception matches the real world in the long run.
