I used to be obsessed by this money creation thing. But its not so much about central banks or systemic inflation but much more about the power given to any banks really. But recently its being abused beyond imagination through loans for purchasing other companies above their value and marking that difference as intangible assets and recycling the debts forever with other loans and untaxed unrealized gains. Lets add to that pour education, terrible food choices and not enough mind free or physically active time

@rizful Can this kind of spam be prevented or blocked? on anti-censorship platform like Nostr, this can become a huge problem... soonish we'll have 100 of bots. I don't want adds for service on reply to my post. and I will never sign up to a service that does such a thing.
This is not the sentenced I was expecting to catch my eyes when I click and started reading this article. https://theshelbyreport.com/2025/08/31/if-this-happened-in-your-store-today-could-you-stop-it/ “We need government at every level to take actions that curtail the ability and opportunity for these criminal organizations to profit from stolen merchandise, and to send the signal that this type of criminal activity will no longer be tolerated.”
I contacted nostr:nprofile1qqsg86qcm7lve6jkkr64z4mt8lfe57jsu8vpty6r2qpk37sgtnxevjcpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrpdejqz9thwden5te0v4jx2m3wdehhxarj9ekxzmnyz4j553 to have a discussion about how to talk to politicians about Bitcoin, as he's helped certain politicians see the Bitcoin light.
We touched on this, but Jeff focused more on explaining how the sea change we're currently experiencing eclipses outdated political dichotomies.
Like the Cannabis legalization in Canada, it will happen when they figure out how to profit from us more than right now. And no one will be happy about it. There is nothing good about government adopting BTC, you're living in the illusion of a system that cares about you.
