Regulation of weights & measures is necessary for science, & commerce… the power to "To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures” is given to Congress in Art 1 Sec 8.
Money needs fixed standards.
Study #Bitcoin.
Perhaps the greatest Irony ever is that Paul Krugman’s downplaying concerns about rising debt loads is the best reason for why it all needs to be Forgiven with a Global Jubilee.
Then humanity can get on with using hard commodity money.
I remain long Irony and #Bitcoin.
Let’s say market price of beef & butter is 1,000 & 500 Sats/pound, respectively.
We don’t have any #Bitcoin, but I have 1 pound of beef & you have 2 pounds of butter.
We can still use #Bitcoin price signals to negotiate a rational price.
1/2 lb of beef for 1 pound of butter.
This is why I say #Bitcoin price signals scale faster than UTXOs.
In a true free and open market where producers can directly barter with each other, workers don’t need to actually own #Bitcoin directly to use Bitcoin price signals to facilitate a fair & rational trade.
#Bitcoin is backed by random acts of honest work.
This randomness is essential to Bitcoin’s Patient Ferment Power Law Mental Model, which has yet to be invalidated after 15+ years of Bitcoin’s existence.
I might be the only person who understands this… for now.

Some people like to contribute their resources to the Church.
Some people like to contribute their resources to the State.
I like to contribute my resources to #Bitcoin because it’s better than any economic incentive system that the Church or State has ever come up with.
Income Tax exemptions help #Bitcoin scale and become more private at the same time.
No hard forks or soft forks required!!😀
Let’s stop being stupid and pick our battles wisely.
Contingency and redundancy of a % of my online Bitcoin connections if/when they tighten the vise-grip on Twitter and other social media sites…
The knowledge/hive mind network of Bitcoin users online is a huge positive for the Bitcoin network… I want to stay tapped into and engaged with that
#Bitcoin and Free Markets are fundamentally about trusting the verifiable free market price discovery process while staying committed to basic quality control standards.
Given #Bitcoin is the lowest common denominator of the Future, we should keep things as simple as possible.
You seem like a mental gymnast trying to escape the Truth.
I’m not reading all that.
Our “government” that represents society creates no value for our tax dollars. It is pure unadulterated theft and parasitism.
It all needs to be abolished and we need a complete reset starting fresh with first principles.
Thou shalt not steal, accurate and honest weights and measures, etc…
Whatever “debt” you speak of that I may or may not owe to your nebulous “society” in no way justifies systemic theft.
“Society” is not my Master, and we are not its Slaves.
Taxes and money printing are theft. If you disagree, you’re just being logically and ethically dishonest.
The “programs” are bankrupt and completely disconnected from economic reality and accountability.
Your assumptions about what I think couldn’t be less accurate and have nothing to do with my OP.
#Bitcoin is not compatible with systemic theft, which is what all Govt programs are
One way or another Marxist Clown World brainwashing has to be reversed, which includes everything I mentioned.
#Bitcoin needs fertile soil to grow in
Which is just The Truth.
It’s fine if you disagree. The Truth doesn’t care.
Hopium doesn’t change the Truth.
People don’t understand how much they will have to change along with collective culture in order to get the most out of #Bitcoin.
Abolish Income Taxes
End the Fed
End the Forever Wars
Abolish Bankrupt Entitlements
Forgive the Fake Debt
#Bitcoin cannot truly set us free until we abolish Income Taxes, Social Security, Medicare, The Fed, and the Fake Fiat Debt.
You can disagree and bitch and moan about it all you want, but the Truth doesn’t care.
Dishonest and inaccurate weights and measures are incompatible with the Scientific Method, Free Trade, and Human Flourishing.
Exit Fiat Clown World through the #Bitcoin Gift Shop.
Time, Energy, Human Willpower, and God (whatever God means to you) are #Bitcoin’s greatest allies.
#Bitcoin is Sacred.
But #Bitcoin is not God.
#Bitcoin simply helps us maintain accurate and honest weights and measures, so we can live long in the land our Creator has given us.
#Bitcoin will not flourish in a world of oppressive systemic theft via taxation and money printing.
