They just don’t understand money is all.

That's fine. I don't understand a lot of things but why make an argument you don't understand? All that says is to me is that you outsource your thinking and are completely fine with believing in things you can't prove to be true.

They don’t know that they don’t understand it. You ask them what backs the dollar and they will 100% of the time say “the government” and that’s it. They stop thinking at that point. When you explain to them how the fed works they think you’re making up a conspiracy. That’s the reality of it. They are convinced that the government knows what it’s doing and that they can fix it stay on course. They believe that. They believe that Donald Trump knows something that no one else knows that’s going to fix their money.

They want to believe in what they have been told. Sad.
