Well this podcast fucked my brain. Do we all just not know anything? Everyone is just lying to everyone? or is it even lying if they believe it to be the truth?
There is just plainly too much disinformation in money right now. Bitcoin fixes this.

Check out "The Fiat Standard" by Saifedean Ammous if you want to learn more about how fucked up the fiat system is.
