The basis of our economy is debt-driven consumerism. That's the real point. 99% of the crap propaganda tells us we need distracts us from what we really need to live well.
We're not seeking good relationships, value production, inspiring architecture, industry.
Instead, we're chasing trash. We're chasing the shit we've been told makes our lives better but doesn't.
Free choice is great, but the choices we're making aren't real choices.

seven years years ago, I shared
https://vijayboyapati.medium.com/the-bullish-case-for-bitcoin-6ecc8bdecc1
with a friend and told him I had gone all in on bitcoin. He decided to stay the traditional course.
At last, as he's working through what to do with a couple of 401k funds, he is coming around to bitcoin. He'll probably end up with an IRA through Unchained Capital, but it's still better than sitting zero.
People can wake up in time.
Bitcoin was made to be spent on the right things at the right time.
Very much so

You said it best. most people in Europe and the Americas already own most of the consumer trash they could ever use. We could last another 20 years on the things we currently possess or are sitting in warehouses.
The only thing people need now is to get healthy.
I think it's a "who knows" for most natuon states. The Russia-China thing was an interesting test. If they can easily convert the sats back into their local currencies, we'll likely see more of this sort of thing.
I've learned over the years to not expect things to happen fast or smoothly. More likely there will a lot of economic disasters around the world as the dollar collapses, but even that could take a other 15 years.
Palm Sunday is a reminder that God came to bring peace through love and grace vs evil men who think they can bring peace through war.
They banned it so they could buy it.
I was wrong to say they own more, but they are neck and neck with the US. They can play this game.
Does anyone remember a document out of China from 2018 or 2019 that talked about how they were planning to issue a certain amount of bitcoin to the province to restart local economies after the dollar died?
China has more bitcoin than the US. They will probably be fine.
game theory is a blast.
I'm ok with cauliflower as long as it's not pretending to be something else. 🙃
I can't escape the cauliflower taste when I've done this, and that increases whatever hormone is linked to sadness.
What they say: "Prices will go up!"
What they mean: "You won't buy any more of our consumer trash that keeps our fake economy going!"
