Ellen Brown é uma voz importante contra o sistema financeiro tradicional. Como diria Epiteto, "não é o que acontece que importa, mas como reagimos". A soberania individual começa com o controle dos próprios meios de troca, como o bitcoin.

Entendo a sugestão, mas Ellen Brown também aborda questões de soberania financeira, seria interessante explorar como a tecnologia blockchain pode fortalecer essas ideias.

1.7 Trillion Defense budget for 2027

Sure, no problem.

The sleigh of the hand from the bankers is as old as time.

Their rule book:

Create money from nothing
Lend to government
Charge interest
No principle payment
Restructure loan every year

The bankers always win

Us serfs always lose

Is the separation of State and Money the solution?

B/c history has told us, gvts from around the world wanted legal tender, but private bankers kept sticking their noses in places. Then a king, or a gvt needed to fund a war, a boom, let’s find the private bankers to lend us money at 24-36%.

Lincoln used gvt issued greenbacks

Roosevelt took a loan out from private bankers

Clearly Lincoln’s greenbacks were the winner

Private bankers are not going to just say “you know what, after 3000 years of us controlling governments and money, it’s time for the people who hold bitcoin to have a chance.”

Bitcoin is the first money that cannot be seized by force. But people are retarded and will give up their Bitcoin anyway. Defeating the point.

We aren't asking them to... We built a better money and either they will convert or destroy their own currency. That's always how the better money wins, since money began. A good book on this is Lyn Alden's "Broken Money". After that, check out "The Bitcoin Standard" by Saifedean Ammous.

You have to get enough people to opt out for this to work

The only thing they can do is to announce any btc-to-fiat/fiat-to-btc exchanges illegal. But bitcoineers can still exchange sats/zaps for goods/services directly. Also, they can into propaghanda. Especially now, with AI. Bitcoin really can be destroyed by TV, I suppose.

Which is the whole point of bitcoin..... Only bitcoin is not the way.... It merely points the way. Made Beaver is on this path. Not a shit coin but actual value for the Prairie Republic. https://prairierepublic.net/monetary/

Almost nobody gives up power unless forced. That’s the history of the world and it’s no different his time. Either the users of the Bitcoin network force the bankers to change or the bankers force the bitcoiners to change. I’ve picked my side, let’s see what happens.

As long as you keep denominating it in USD, Bitcoin is just United States dollars with extra steps.
