I cant help but think the lockdowns was en experiment to see what will happen if you told people to lock down.

And i also think the blackout in Beirut is an experiment to see what happens if you turn off the power in a capital city. Or maybe the power company and the government in Beirut was just sitting on their hands and suddenly realising they are out of fuel?

"oh look, we ran out of fuel :) guess we should order some more?"

Does not seem like we know the full story at least

Day #39 POD (Proof of Donation)

A day of relaxation - certain days I am so consumed with my day job it is hard to check in on here.

Does anyone know what happened to that Greg Foss guy? He seems to have just vanished.

Recovering from a long run and beer garden visit with a great friend.

Why dont elected officials educate themselves on how an economy grows and what good and bad policies are?

Stack Sats and stay humble. This is the way.

It's deep. Our values guide us.

"Enjoy the heck out of your day!"

The world is addicted to alcohol, to sugar, to opioids… but above all, it’s addicted to cheap credit. It’s addicted to borrowing from future generations in order to pay for the stupidity of ourselves and our ancestors.

Nothing will change until we start living FOR the future, not FROM the future.

Did you know that your brain will shrink after you become a parent?

Day 52 of collecting taxes from stackers.

Collected so far: amount of sats redacted.

A petition is a formal written request, typically one signed by many people, appealing to “authority” in respect of a particular cause.

However in most cases, when you sign a petition you have inadvertently accepted the obligation of the very thing you are petitioning against, when in fact you may have had no obligation in the first place, as there was no lawfully binding contract to begin with.

Meaning the subject or cause you are petitioning against did not even apply to you, but through the very action of petitioning, now it does.

This is why most petitions against the “government” are actually set up by the very “government” you are “petitioning” against.

Note: a petition is an “appeal” which means in simple terms “begging”. You have lost your sovereign status and become subservient to a higher authority.

For example: If you petition against changes made to the “Human Rights Act” then you have accepted that “contract” or corporate policy, and are now bound by it, when it never even applied to you.

You have now agreed that your rights no longer belong to you, but are now controlled by the people who have written the “Human Rights Act”, who now have the power to change them at will. You have become a slave.

A lawful petition can only exist where a standing agreed upon contract already applies.

For example: If a group of people all sign a contract to work for a corporation, and the management of said corporation then “change the deal”, the group of people could “petition” against the changes to an existing contract.

However if you are petitioning against a change in policy regarding a contract your are obligated by, remember regardless of how many people signed said petition, the overall document is only considered as one voice and only carries the weight of “one person” in court.

Therefore it would be better to sue the management for breach of contract than petition, that way the workers retain their sovereign status.

Note: Most unions will not tell the workers this, and are usually working with the very corporation the union said they would protect the worker against.

Petitions are also set up and offered by governments to defuse a situation where the people are angry over a certain issue said government caused.

The way this works is those who sign have a sense they are acting against the issue and therefore are making a difference, when in fact they have not, and hence do not take the matter any further.

In short, only children or slaves beg, make appeals and petition.
