Just like ~110 years ago, some bumbling fool might easily throw the world into chaos.

I agree in principle, I wouldn't have fascist memorabilia lying around but books, wood furniture, and bits of armour are awesome.

Good on those farmers, France needs a zoomer spring like Bulgaria or Sri Lanka.

Ideally to be replaced with nothing but that'd be too good to be true, so I recommend to model a new government after the American ogovernment in 1801 or the West German government in 1950

The looters will jump at any cover story to secure more power and wealth for themselves but at least this one seems to be mostly on hold for a moment.

Time to switch careers I think 😄

Yeah my wallet is finicky like that 😄

I appreciate it nonetheless, though!

Know of any good self-custodial or at least KYC-free wallet better suited for zapping than Breez?

I agree with what this man is trying to do and more people should be aware of the subject he's talking about.

In the following, I won't be trying to argue against him, I'll just give some corrections so when you use him as a source to build an argument, you'll hopefully repeat the correct stuff and leave out the incorrect stuff.

Napoleon I. died in 1821, so margarine had nothing to do with him, but it was indeed invented in 1869 in France, was made from beef tallow and was meant to last longer than butter.

It became complete and utter poison when made with vegetable oils in the early 20th century

Also, "one molecule" of difference does not confer any information, you'd have to either say "one atom" or "one so-and-so-group", like one hydroxide group. His example of ethanol and methanol, while correct, invalidates his own argument there, because the difference of one carbon and two hydrogen atoms means a good time with one and terrible health consequences with the other.

I have heard about the test of leaving butter and margarine sitting outside for a while and I would really like to test that some day.

We'll do whatever we want whenever we want because we're the British government and we have all the guns.

Some folks are born silber spoon in hand.

Others are born with an complete set of platinum cutlery sticking out of every orifice.

To paraphrase Ayn Rand's work, you can't be impractical and old-fashioned about these things, we need a progressive and elastic approach to such regulations to best serve the public welfare.

I'm not going to hold up my Sarcasm sign for you here 😂

They really tie the room together.

Maybe don't beat your swords into plowshares but do mint coins from your crowns.

For he who trades by coin instead of power has much less need of a sword than he who lives by it.

So coins for growing your wealth and swords for defending your liberty, no crowns required.

Fully agree, if "green" means efficient, then I can clearly see the incentive.

Green energy adoption? Why would anyone use the most expensive kind of electricity for any high-energy, quasi-industrial concern like hashing?

Other than that, yes it's a tragedy, and yes, more decentralization is more better.

I might be a little influenced by Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged which I'm reading at the moment but there's one more thing other than your purchasing power that disappears and that is people's ability to buy, sell, trade, work, or produce without having to fear violent government intervention.

I'm already seeing houses left to rot not because they could not be fixed but because regulation made even small repairs prohibitively expensive by tacking on endless requirements in order to escape government aggression while even more regulation makes the sale, (demolition, and reconstruction) of the same homes bureaucratically impossible.

The main reason these things have become impossible is of course the cost of fulfilling regulations and thereby covered by your initial point but I wanted to shine a light on that specific aspect of high prices that isn't directly tied to monetary inflation.

#EndThe Fed

Mr. Trump, open this gold window!

Mr. Trump, tear down this Fed!

I recommend Tom Petty's "Free Falling" as a fitting soundtrack

Fair point indeed, I've thought a lot about the abundance of precious metals in space but never about the complete lack of organic materials. And I really like wood.

Keynesianism is great in many ways? Thank you for sharing "Lord Keynes" with us?

Is that smug, condescending American socialist referring to president of the British Eugenics Society and famed purveyor of "services of bed and boy" John Maynard Keynes?

I'm all for letting the other side talk but these remarks cannot go uncommented by someone like you, Peter, who is versed in Austrian economics and genuinely looking to better the outcome of future generations, someone who has glimpsed the abhorrent slavery that Keynesianism has created in the formerly "free" world.

Besides, if you go over to the dark side, it's no one but Dominic Frisby left in all of Britain championing the cause of liberty.

And thus, new alcoholics were born, and it was a christmas miracle ☺️

There is no end to my admiration of the man but I envision a world in which Murray Rothbard would have nothing to teach to anybody, in which his ideas were plain as day to everyone and old Murray had to scrape by, only able to feed and educate four children and afford a modest home on a single blue-collar income.
