Monetary history shows us that the debasement of #money always leads to the collapse of empires.

When governments get too big, social programs too large, and money too abundant the system collapses. This has happened time and time again.

Here are a few examples:

- The Roman Empire

- The Byzantine Empire

- The Ottoman Empire

- The Chinese Empires such as the Tang, Song, and Ming dynasties

What’s next? The #UnitedStates Empire?

#Bitcoin fixes this.
