Decline of The Dollar:

It’s well on its way, and I welcome it. I don’t want to see the American economy implode any more than the next guy who’s willing to let his own house burn. But the dollar has enabled the banking industry to raid and pillage third world countries for years. We are an unproductive people, and our greatest exports are democracy and big guns, which enable us to trade proof-of-stake promises to third world populations that give us their real labor and their real commodities. To support a system that impoverishes billions is an unjust existence. Ten years ago, Alfred McCoy made a good argument to me that this would happen around 2035. BRICS is developing nicely. Bitcoin is developing nicely. Our government is chasing its tail and bullying it’s own allies.

Productive people anywhere in the world have the opportunity to evolve, to settle a new civilizational frontier based on voluntary cooperation. Unlike previous changes in world order, a dominant successor to the old system is irrelevant, unnecessary; there is no overthrow, there is no forced change, only a new choice, a new degree of freedom, and as such not is contradictory to the tenents of freedom, but an evolution of them; technology is liberating the human spirit and the benefits are economically and culturally beyond what most can imagine. Anyone can go, but many will choose not to. This is the Evolution of Freedom. #EOF
