My parents both died in a car accident last night.
The emotional toll is massive.
Deep down Im grateful for the grief, because it's a complete reflection of the potent love I have for them.
They were amazing people.
Whenever a country blames speculators for its currency depreciation, just go ahead and check the money supply chart.
That always says a thousand words.
Yeah, no. My dad was a PhD in English literature. He was "Dr Wolf." My mom has a PhD in anthropology. She is 'Dr Wolf." My grandmother had a PhD in social work. She was "Dr Goleman." My grandfather had a PhD in comparative religions. He was "Dr Goleman." My brother has a PhD in

Personally, I would like to see a path to abolishing the Federal reserve and amending the Constitution to prevent annual property taxes.
People could have all the beliefs you described and I could live with it if the above were reality.

Inflation defined as the increase in money supply.
CPI can stay relatively flat year over year when the money supply is increasing only due to innovation.
Still, the people are being robbed of the lower prices that innovation should be providing.

This sounds amazing!
The unintended consequence is that existing companies become ever more entrenched and the barrier to entry for competition is ever increasing.

I own about 40 pairs of my favorite socks. All the same.
I keep them loose in a drawer. I never spend time sorting, folding or matching.

Imagine billions of people investing their time, energy and savings into causes they care deeply about because they no longer have to swim against the current.
We are at the beginning of something very special.
The financial system is broken because our thinking about money is broken.
Yield, credit, leverage and debt have been normalized and now lessons must be learned.

My son was born in April, I looked at him and said "You have no idea how amazing this world is, you are going to love it here." Nothing has changed that belief. This is the greatest time in the history of the world to be alive and it will get better from here.

We are betting that a large portion of current capital markets are ineffective and inefficient and will be come very apparent within an inelastic money system.
Capital markets will not be replaced completely.
Everything will be repriced accordingly.

The right is pandering to you.
The left is pandering to a different audience.
The will both lie to you and then follow an almost identical playbook.

It is law enforcement that is the problem with socialism. No more, no less.
Socialist politicians who have no one to enforce their bad ideas are simply journalists.
They can spew their beliefs into the universe forever as far as I'm concerned.

If 33 trillion is no big deal? At what point does it become a problem?
Whatever that number is, when we get there within 2 years, there will still be no plan to turn it around.

Nope.
Property taxes are the MOST damaging tax of all. Much worse than income or sales tax.
States borrow against the stability of their property tax revenue, which allows them to grow far beyond their bounds.
Sales and income tax are nowhere near as stable and would help

fails as a money b/c of its naive monetary policy.
Many people think government printing too much is evil, so a fixed money supply must be good. The reality: a money that cannot expand would crush the economy and put us all in poverty.
Here’s why and how to fix it.

Current tax revenue is more than enough to pay for any social program you can dream of..
It's simply mismanaged at a colossal scale.
Congress will spend 10X whatever the tax revenue they bring in.
They cannot be trusted with more money.

At best, ordinals increase bitcoin volatility for a time.
The VCs all played this game on ethereum, and it has run its course.
Moving the game to a more permanent database does not make it any more viable.

We have taught children that they are responsible for other people's feelings.
This is absolute NONSENSE and is the source of their suffering.
Teach children:
