Large proportion of psychopaths that are attracted to, and good at politics. In a tribal society, they may have become leaders, but would also be held accountable and ostracized if their behavior was unacceptable. The current political class is above accountability, thus their behavior. They are not able to sleep in the same village as the villagers. They live in walled fortresses with armed security, and our stolen money. They want us unarmed, bankrupt, brainwashed, and speechless. To them we are the cows to be milked.

Not Fiat Architecture

Completed in 1906, the Rhode Island State House is an example of the beauty of La Belle Epoch. The 4th largest unsupported dome, constructed entirely of granite from Georgia.

Bitcoin, yes. Barter, no…it’s just a theory that won’t die. It was never part of the evolution of money. If you think about barter from first principles, it is simply too inefficient to produce any excess value to either party of a trade.

Money began as credit among tribe members, and eventually, humans’ unique penchant for collecting unique things that other humans want to collect, became the first money for trading trustlessly, outside of the tribe. Credit requires trust, money does not. The most saleable goods gained a monetary premium. You trade whatever for gold, or cattle, or wampum, and use the monetary good as money to buy what you desire.

A CBDC is going to be more saleable than some made up local “currency”, but less saleable than Bitcoin.
