100% agree with you on that. A single payer system sounds awful but yet to so many people when they hear about it as a potential way to make healthcare costs more affordable to them for the time being they don’t think about the inverse overall decrease in quality that also occurs with the the monopolization backed by violence.

What about in industries such as medicine, regulation on scope of practice and protecting people from what is actual treatment that helps people versus a scam? Does the state have to play a role here as simply an entity to help protect people? If not, what would be some of the principles that would drive a sustainable healthcare system free of the state?

Any one have any tips on orange pilling your girlfriend or wife? We’ve discussed house buying but I’ve discussed with her not now or yet as there’s plenty more stacking that can occur., especially given the opportunity cost of a house in bitcoin terms. I suppose the sweet spot lies in finding something close to the price I’d be paying for rent anyways. I’ve gotten her to the extent of buying some bitcoin and getting some of it off exchanges, but not so much as to sell her shitcoins. Buy house or living dwelling such as townhouse that’s as close to rent money price anyways vs rent? #asknostr #homebuying

Got my DIY #orangeclock up and running

Currently learning at free code camp and have dabbled a little in python but any languages or resources in specific I should be looking into particularly within the bitcoin dev / cashu sphere?

Definitely a hierarchy amongst the nerds

LFG WAGMI!!!

Aside from Ledn what bitcoin leverage products are out there? #asknostr

Current healthcare worker on the inpatient setting but starting to learn to code to get involved with projects like this. So far in an HTML and CSS portion of a full stack developer course. Where should my focus be to get more involved with stuff like this.. continue to try to finish the full stack course or is their specific languages I should focus on learning for the NOSTR dev portion?

Does insurance exist as a service simply to help offset the unaffordability things like healthcare, considering the impact of inflation on costs?

On a deflationary free market would services like that need to exist?

Suppose I want to learn what is new and coming to nostr.. where do I go to find more about these improvements? #asknostr

GM! Great day to learn more about the protocol and life!

GM! Sleep and sunshine are however 🤙

My 2 sats is that with sovereignty comes responsibility as well but unfortunately people often don’t want to have the responsibility of looking at their food or “vices” as they aren’t truly addicted as addiction doesn’t really exist, they just perceive greater value in convenience or in an unhealthy habit with which they also gain a unspoken license to misbehave to some degree.

Next to having a sovereign money that isn’t being debased to shit, one particularly important other side of wealth is health. Ask any sick millionaire/billionaire if they would rather be healthy than be sick and dying and I bet a lot of them would rather be healthy. I haven’t even read #fiatfood yet, but I’ve listened to several podcasts #40hpw, covering similar topics and I see the fiat effect on food but I don’t think it’s just food.

I think in a Jeff Booth-ian way we’re all part of a system that’s in effect a zero sum game. I’m probably too young and naive and uneducated to think about a non zero sum system would work but shit is making us sick and it’s not just our wealth that we can’t just seem to keep ahead of. For many it’s also our health. I think there’s many a cartel at play here.

True monopolization in a free market economy probably only exists for a brief period of time as a competitor is likely to come along at some point. So not against monopolies if what they provide is a good and or the best solution to a problem but I am against a hidden agreement amongst competitors tha #don’ttrustverify t ultimately want to just take from their consumers.

How can we disrupt for the betterment of man the current cartels that exist?

Best way I know how is to build my wealth, maintain and improve my health and using and supporting FOSS projects while learning to the best of my ability in how they work not only from a users perspective but how they were created. #don’ttrustverify

For #asknostr I present 3 questions

In what ways are you all maintaining sovereignty particularly within the health sphere?

And what parts of the current healthcare system/ related parts need to change?

With the presented problem areas how can we disrupt what they are doing or change them?

Fooking cartels. Still learning Austrian Econ so I’m inferring that monopolies may for a brief moment naturally exist in a free market economy but a competitor naturally will come along at some point, but in the case of a cartel forming.. we might say too the same effect is eventually becomes true as well in this case with the money and monopoly on violence cartel, BTC.
