Bitcoin has nothing to do with people not having jobs in the future. AI has. Only wars can dispose of useless people, and that is exactly what politicians are planning for.

You don't think that the fiat system works by keeping everyone busy doing BS jobs and drowning in debt?
If someone is not producing something valuable they don't get the sats. They might band together and try to take it.

This is not about fiat vs bitcoin. Humanity's technological evolution brought efficiency gains making the majority of the population redundant. Banding together to take what others have is exactly that - wars.

This idea of redundant population is very weird. Someone is only redundant if mentally incapacitated by indoctrination. This is akin to thinking we are at the peak of technology, which is and never will be true IMO. There will always be more thinking and creating to be done.
