With government based currencies, we live no differently to the Medieval times - with kings and nobles, served by pagans and peasants (the people.. us). They control your land, they force you to use their tokens, they devalue your tokens, they tell you what age you can retire (withholding funds), they make laws without the people's consultation or consideration, etc.

When this realisation hits you.. and you remember just how prehistoric and barbaric the medieval times actually were...  why should this be acceptable to anyone?
