Just more. More purchase, power, more goods, 1+1 is progress. 1-1 is regress

Well... I mean there will always be exceptional humans and mediocre humans. So there will always be a gap based on ability. The problem now is mediocre humans can make profit without proof of work by rent seeking. That's causing regression.

It's not what I want or don't want. It's what's visibly been happening since it's inception. Bullish on our shared end goal.

They want more. Everyone wants more. What's your point? That doesn't make the pie any bigger. We all still have the same amount of Bitcoins to buy. I want more, you want more. New people will want some. As price goes up, large holders take profit. Those coins make their way to new hodlers. Happens every cycle. So utxo count grows.

I'm not implying it, you can look at UTXOs on chain. They're growing, not decreasing. They always grow. They decrease slightly when chain fees are low and some consolidate, but they always grow in number. That means factually Bitcoin supply is becoming more distributed. Not centralizing.

The fact that Bitcoin is more distributed over time, not less.

Your obsessed with capitalism having a role. Capitalism doesn't give a shit. It just means you are entitled to your labor/time/energy. That's it. The only incentive that creates is for the individual to progress. By what means is irrelevant. The means are determined by the incentives of the money. Not the economic system you choose. With hard money, there is no progress without proof of work.

Progress is just having more today than yesterday. It's the story of mankind.

Tell me how my labor is exploited in capitalism. Please. How can one be exploited when they are free to work wherever they want for whatever wage they agree to?

We've never had decentralized money. Hard money historically centralized because of its physicality. You know that... Bitcoins distribution has always trended to more smaller holders and don't the opposite of centralizing. How do you address that fact?

More profit does mean more jobs or better capital goods and deflation. One of the two. Either way more profit is more progress. That's just factual.

Wanting more tomorrow than you have today. Everyone has this to some degree or another. The means by which you deal with that greed can be good or bad. Labor can't be exploited in capitalism. You have the freedom to work or not work wherever you want for whatever amount you freely agree to. Labor IS exploited in communism and socialism. Us capitalists have greatly benefited (in terms of our purchasing power relative to theirs) from external exploitation of labor in THESE systems. To our detriment of hollowing our industrial base. By extension, exporting our labor to unjust systems has been the cause of global wealth disparity.

Greed doesn't make you more money. In a hard money standard it will potentially ruin you.

If you have more, or better capital goods, you have more capital goods to share with those around you as well. More profit means more jobs.

I didn't say you said you want better food. I'm saying you do whether you want to admit it or not.

You "want" better food tomorrow than you had today. This is human nature. To want progress in your life. What's the point of doing anything if it's not going to benefit you.

Eventually yes. That doesn't mean there won't be poor people and rich people. There will always be a heirachy of wealth. But without money printing that devide would be based on their actual contributions and not who holds more assets.

Of course it does. Because everyone does. That's always a trade-off. But you can't profit at all without any means. Unless you regulate the two together, your company will go bankrupt... Unless of course... You have a central bank.

Not a capitalism problem. A money printing one. There is nothing wrong with the incentive structure to improve profits. More profit means more progress. The problem again, is money printing, as now they can profit without progress. That's not possible with hard money.

You're telling me you don't want more money tomorrow than you do today? Send me some of yours then if you don't want more. Everyone wants more than they have. That's the greed. An economic constant in any system.

I support people's right to do whatever they want with their property. If that means spending it on lobbying, that's their choice. That doesn't mean I don't see problems with the current entanglement of government and private corporations. Any system with a central bank will have these problems. The only way to fix it is seperateing money from state. The economic system of capitalism is the most just one we have.
