What about find what you love and let it kill you?
Of course, i'm not saying bitcoin doesnt fix some(a lot) of problems but it is primarily a tool for free and productive people to make things better
We skipped the second part of ppl.making shit happen and settled on NGU/ETF celebrations and buying lambos
"Bitcoin fixes this"
Makes people passive and waiting for shit to happen instead of making shit happen.
It should be "Bitcoiner fixes this".
Maybe a https://sovereignengineering.io/ fork would be interesting there
I used to go to lounges all the time if not for anything else than to grab couple bottles of water (i had free access through a card), sadly nowadays very few still have water you can take with you. Also they are all full everywhere.
I've had some long layovers where a lounge gets handy, but the golden days are over, same with the flying, business used to be great, nowadays its just slightly better than cattle class.
Why dont just allow ppl who want to open companies and employ themselves in the companies full time to move to US tho? Bring productive ppl in and let them build stuff there.
Just keep the leeches out (its easy, drop the social support bullshit and remove taxes) so only ppl who are productive and produce can move there easily
imho spending bitcoin (for majority of your expenses) when you're not earning bitcoin is at best activist mindset, at worst foolish
There is another lesson in this - technology is a great deterrent to make coercion much more costlier. Sure in this case you might sympathise with the agents being hurt, but the root causes of this are far removed.
Governments apply bad policies, they enforce complete doxing on every corner with kyc, companies thrive on harvesting all the data, we have created the society which enables this and created the bad policies that need enforcing this. Its a bell that cant be unrung. The tech and data are out there, what needs to change is the society.
