As someone in the EU about about to get raped by the Euro soon , i feel like the issue is there is no stopping the suck train. I think this applies to a lot of places too, not just Europe. Most countries now have totally broken money and birth rates below the replacement level. purchasing power down, freedom down etc etc
it's going down in slow motion, and I have absolutely no faith or expectation that anything will change, not the red tape, shitty money or Brussels being gay about everything.
We all know that social security is a Ponzi, but no political leader would ever change it because it's political suicide. even fucking Putin pays lip service to pensioners (he did famously increase the pension age after promising not to , but he's a dictator, he can do what he wants).
Personally, all I can think of is focusing on stacking sats and living in somewhat isolation. Keep plodding along and get comfortable with the idea of being a prepper. Money is a big piece of the puzzle, and having something that no gov or group of central bankers can mess with is pretty incredible tho
YEEES, excellent assessment
