As quickly as it came, it left.
I’ve loved a lot of what I’ve seen there but at a certain point it’s far too much. A dictator running short on time without breaking the constitution is going to build a massive city (and build a new volcano??) and bait everyone with 0 taxes? Given the excessive failures of the country over many decades, I’m very bearish of all of these excessive over the top changes. You don’t just snap your fingers and build this without it just as easily be snapped and taken away.
You missed the whole point: Bukele is no more than like Satoshi. Created a "crack" into the system and will leave it to the people to continue it.
Bukele is not a "builder", is just opening the path to opportunities.
What western countries will NEVER understand: those people from LATAM are used to be slaves, for centuries theyt weren't capable to think for themselves.
If there's nobody to tell them what to do, they will just die.
What Bukele did, was just cracking their head and plant the seed inside. Yes, by force, by law, call it as you wish, but with those people is not possible in other way.
You can talk with LATAM people about Rothbardian philosophy, they will never understand it.
IT IS OUR DUTY NOW TO CONTINUE THIS WORK.
Don't complain, do something to help.

I'll be buying the bond issuance. And kissing the investment goodbye. If I ever see a satoshi back from it, it'll be a bonus. It's worth it for the experiment and the learning.

You lost me at comparing a dictator politician to Satoshi.

You don't know what is a dictator. Stop using words that you do not understand.
I lived 20 years in a full dictatorship communist country and I know how is a dictator.
You have no idea what is it.
