One or handful of people are easy targets. They make examples of high profile people like that for a reason.
If we all stopped, they wouldn’t be able to do that.
Not if we set our withholdings to zero.
If we all just stopped paying taxes there is nothing the govt could do. Think about that.
Agreed. I wouldn’t recommend The Fiat Standard as a basic Austrian Economics and “what is money?” introduction. Both books you named would be great. My Bitcoin starter pack is The Bitcoin Standard, Layered Money, and Inventing Bitcoin.
I also think the first seven chapters of The Bitcoin Standard do a good job of explaining money and its history. Certainly good enough for a jumping off point into Bitcoin.
I’d say it depends on the individual reading and what level of BTC and monetary education they have. Personally, I think understanding money first is more important, but many people aren’t willing to commit to that much time learning. The Bitcoin Standard is the best way to orange pill with the least amount of time spent by the individual trying to learn, IMO.
Saifedean’s The Fiat Standard goes through many of these. Highly recommend the read.
MSNBC being on in the bar and constantly putting up the Bitcoin price while I’m at a business lunch is just unfair.
Two dudes talking so loudly that my headphones can’t keep their voices drown out and an old lady in a full Kansas Jayhawks sweat suit singing along to old show tunes playing out loud on her phone. The CTA red line rarely disappoints.
Will someone please try to zap me a custom amount? Testing out a wallet switch. Ty in advance.
Amen

Agreed. It would be awesome if it was fully functional as they are intending to make it. I’m sure it will get there eventually.
Yeah. Not user friendly at all, and now I can’t even get it to open on my phone. Very nascent stages. Cool concept, but a long way to go.
