The government is literally stealing your life with taxes and fiat monetary inflation…

As a conservative example:

You start working at 20.
You work until you’re 65.
You pay +/- 33% of your income in taxes.

The government takes 1/3 of your working life…

They have stolen **15 YEARS** of your time, energy, and work.

And for what?

For roads? (LOLOLOL)

For a broken education system?

For a medical system that wants to keep you sick and medicated?

For the military industrial complex which gets rich off foreign forever wars you never agreed to?

And while they are stealing 1/3 of your life, they are PRINTING MONEY OUT OF THIN AIR, stealing MORE of your time/energy/life force through the destruction of your purchasing power.

The taxes you pay don’t even fund the government; an ever-growing pile of national debt does, fueled by money created out of thin air by the Federal Reserve System. The dollars in your bank account are worth less and less every year, as your purchasing power is systematically destroyed.

I am grateful #Bitcoin exists so I can opt out of this nonsense and save the value of my time and energy.

Anyway, have a beautiful day.

I remember back in 2006 or something, I was though in indoctrination camp "Taxes on alcohol and cigarettes are in place so that it discouragas people from smoking and drinking" And it took me another 10 years to ask myself "And what about this income tax?"

The money is stolen and then put to use against you.

This banger video goes on to highlight the Titanic disaster and Jekyll island connections. Essential we were sold in a satanic ritual, to condem generation after generation as fiat slaves for the benefit of the filthy rich. I'm amazed YouTube hasn't pulled it. https://youtu.be/fAPYSeOGoD8?si=M6xM9E...

This is pretty much the only thing everyone should have learned in high school, but nobody was ever taught. Wish I woulda figured it out 15 years ago.

How do you opt out of the capital gains tax when selling Bitcoin? Even using a bill (credit card) payment service I'd imagine might catch up one day. Bull Bitcoin in Canada as example I'm sure reports client transactions even if bill payment style. I'm not huge fan of using robosats style services...

The worst part is that they are also stealing from the future generations, with all the debt

With all that money printing, unless you get a 7% raise every year, you are talking home less purchasing power. Then, when you get to retirement, all of that saved money in sociall security, or your IRA, or 401k, are also dropping in purchasing power by 7% each year. While you are working, you thin...

GM✌️💜 Yup! Thank god for #bitcoin! It really is a gift of the divine. Work of human hands(and minds) but inspired from above. Proof that the lord loves us.

And to think, the Church only asked for 10%, yet a lot of normies in my feeds reject God and worship the state. How ignorant is that?

If it makes you feel better, the bulk of my federal salary has gone to attacking sats for the past few years.

Such a good note. If anyone makes a meaningful wage it is closer to 40 percent on income, and then hit again for 10-20 percent on spending / property taxes. Buying Bitcoin and not reporting gains can literally buy you 20 years of time in 5 or so years.

In the UK, I’ve seen estimates of 70% across a lifetime when you factor in the various other taxes besides income tax and national insurance (which go up the more you earn), such as fuel duty, VAT on purchases and bills, air passenger duty, capital gains tax, stamp duty, road tax, inheritance tax,...

Agree. The biggest issue right now is that only a very small amount of people realize this.

all money in existence anywhere has been printed out of thin air. #LearnMMT and save the world , esp libertarians, from economic illiteracy.
