except it's about leverage. Mexico has already caved. Colombia has caved. Panama is already caving. Others will as well, including Canada. They have more to lose from not trading with the US in the short-term.
you know nothing about my priorities, Canada.
makes you wonder what adding all the beds at Guantanamo Bay are really for.
I say this all the time.
I completely understand. I also think if you look at your stack from a dollar-sats parity standpoint, you probably already have enough for the next two generations.
The two certainly are related, but for those with assets, and sound money in particular, beating inflation isn't hard.
I spend and replace my bitcoin. I'm quite happy with bitcoin gains to price increases. For me, everything is going down in price.
Price increases is not inflation.
That's good for those of us who have been stacking. Everything gets cheaper.
This is a great take and exactly what I think is going on. Extract cash and hold it off a couple of years. But it's coming
Prices on certain things might increase in the short-term, but it won't be any worse that what we've seen in the past few years. People have already cut back.
I'm about as clean cut as you get and most people give me that look when I tell them bitcoin is the only way out of the mess the bankers created.
That's why I quit talking to them, bought land, stored food, found friendly people, gathered my family around, and started stacking bitcoin as fast as possible in 2018.
I don't care about Trump's plan. I don't care about any of the politicians and their plans. I think it's lamentable when people cry over what the media says is bad when the harm has already been done by 100 years of theft. That's the point.
Come on, Zach. People think bitcoin maxis are crazy. And we probably are.
Lol. It's the same thing fiat people say about bitcoiners.
I agree. But the baseline isn't that govt is evil. The baseline is that people are fallen and have evil in their hearts.
The fact is, the system is broken. It needs a complete reset. Things were going to be bad no matter what. We're all getting bent out of shape because of TDS, but we should have been preparing since 2009. Look at the inflation since then and get upset about that. The money printing in 2020 was the "don't look behind the curtain moment". Yet we all did and saw the effect.
Anyone who hasn't spent some of the past 10 years getting ready, is going to suffer. I have a whole group of people I've been stacking bitcoin for. Anyone complaining how the political stuff is going to hurt people have probably not been getting their shit together for themselves or anyone else.
The 4th Turning is going to be hard, folks. No matter what the politicians do, people are going to struggle. Prepare for those around you. Find people you trust. Figure out ways to work together. Mandibles is more likely than the Jetsons.
Haha. Hair as a disqualifier. lol.
