Its alleged benefits are not really different from the benefits of robbery and fraud. Many princes blushed when they were caught debasing the currency of the country. But modern presidents, prime ministers, and chancellors can keep a straight face and justify inflation with the alleged need to stabilize the price level and to finance growth. There is a solid historical record documenting how governments have abused the trust that the citizens put into them. There was in fact, hardly a dynasty that did not in this way abuse its monopoly of coinage. Ancient Greeks and Romans, medieval princes, dukes and emperors, as well as democratic parliaments have recklessly debased the coins of their country.” [or as Satoshi put it, "The central bank must be trusted not to debase the currency, but the history of fiat currencies is full of breaches of that trust."] “Moral hazard is implied in the very existence of paper money because its producer can bail out virtually anybody. Central planning and hyperinflation is what the future holds for an economy under paper money. The only third way is to abolish paper money altogether and to return to a sound monetary order” Fiat inflation is what happens when people increase the money supply by fraud, imposition, and breach of contract. Thus it leaves a characteristic cultural and spiritual stain on human society. Inflation spurs the growth of central governments. It allows these governments to grow larger than they could become in a free society. And it allows them to monopolize governmental functions to an extent that would not occur under a natural production of money. The printing press allows the government to tap the property of its people without having obtained their consent. The old way for ordinary citizens to make savings was the accumulation of cash. Under fiat inflation this strategy is suicidal - Fiat inflation is a juggernaut of social, economic, cultural, and spiritual destruction.” #Bitcoin: Defund parasites. npub1kv2en9qemgp0ysjyxxy3pqyd5d8sqpl6ekuzw3x70k42yc8gnlxsv90tu6 VandelayBTC “In no period of human history, has paper money spontaneously emerged on the free market. The only sure way to bring paper notes into circulation was to impose them on the citizenry. Historically, private coinage came first and only later did governments take over. It carries the risk of total and permanent value annihilation. In a truly free market, paper could not withstand the competition of commodity monies. The more farsighted and prudent market participants would get rid of their paper money first, and the others would follow in due course Inflation is that part of the money supply that comes into being because of the invasion of private property rights. As in the case of debasement, banknotes have been falsified both by ordinary criminals and by the “guardians” themselves, as in 1781 when the Bank of Amsterdam started counterfeiting its own banknotes. Economic science has put us in a position to understand that competitive coinage is an even better way of preserving the trustworthiness of coins. There is no economic reason not to allow every private citizen to enter the minting business and to offer his own coins. As long as the citizens are free to produce and use the best money available, sound money prevails, whereas debased money and fractional reserves lead a fringe existence". - J.G.Hülsmann #Bitcoin > #CounterfeitMoney https://cdn.nostr.build/i/fce6dfd799c8889168248867aeb7c69a23b6f6bdc40742a6ef6f9315d31fdd1f.png npub1kv2en9qemgp0ysjyxxy3pqyd5d8sqpl6ekuzw3x70k42yc8gnlxsv90tu6 VandelayBTC Looking for the second best? https://cdn.nostr.build/i/a349841976f53b077c964997a35a3b31b88a3192a5c999461fc9aa0dbbfdd99d.jpg npub1kv2en9qemgp0ysjyxxy3pqyd5d8sqpl6ekuzw3x70k42yc8gnlxsv90tu6 VandelayBTC The only virus we need to worry about is the deadly outbreak of Marxism now plaguing the land.

Because you're probably also BEING ROBBED BLIND there too. npub1kv2en9qemgp0ysjyxxy3pqyd5d8sqpl6ekuzw3x70k42yc8gnlxsv90tu6 VandelayBTC The #Euro🇪🇺 fiatshitcoin has now lost over 40% of its buying power since creation in 2000, and the debasement is accelerating. The @ecb is a criminal cartel. No matter how harder you swim, they constantly pull you back in place. They control the money supply, counterfeiting new currency at an alarming rate to feed their own self-interests. They make it hard for people to retain the fruits of their labor, silently stealing their savings. The @ecb is a parasite on European economies. Unelected vampires, sucking the lifeblood out of the productive - and they're not going to stop until they're defunded. They need to be stopped. But how do you stop a criminal cartel? It's not easy. They're powerful, and have a lot of resources. But we can't give up. We need to save in something they can't steal anymore, that is how we will slowly starve them. We have to fight for our future, and we have to win. #Bitcoin is the only solution I see at this point. Everything else has failed. Including "democracy". https://cdn.nostr.build/i/8137a4b102d668796308d9fd2b4a410f091ef8e40654aef943ad61e23e20ad95.jpg npub1kv2en9qemgp0ysjyxxy3pqyd5d8sqpl6ekuzw3x70k42yc8gnlxsv90tu6 VandelayBTC Scarcity is an unavoidable fact of physical reality, nothing physical can be provided for free, to claim otherwise is to deny reality and endorse slavery.

Just one can't do all jobs. npub1kv2en9qemgp0ysjyxxy3pqyd5d8sqpl6ekuzw3x70k42yc8gnlxsv90tu6 VandelayBTC We don't live under true capitalism at the moment, and that won't change until we take the control of money away from corrupt central banks that impede the existence of a truly free, fair and unmanipulated market. Crony capitalism run by cantillionaires is a criminal racket, but Socialism/Communism are much worse versions of this already bleak scenario. npub1kv2en9qemgp0ysjyxxy3pqyd5d8sqpl6ekuzw3x70k42yc8gnlxsv90tu6 VandelayBTC Inflation tax (theft via currency counterfeiting) is the most evil of them all.

The order required Americans to hand over any significant amount of gold to the Federal Reserve in exchange for dollars. FDR then devalued those dollars to make it easier to repay the huge debt that had built up during the Great Depression. The Executive Order 6102 was a challenge to the liberty of individuals to preserve their wealth. We can’t know for sure that Satoshi picked April 5 as birthday for that reason, but the Bitcoin creator was interested in monetary history and concerned about the power of individuals to preserve their wealth and keep it safe from state intervention. It remains a core motivator of Bitcoin’s supporters to this day, because this time is different. This time we have something much better than gold, that cannot be stolen easily and can even be taken to the afterlife. It's just math. #Bitcoin 21>79 #Gold https://i.imgur.com/JIhcWr3.jpg npub1kv2en9qemgp0ysjyxxy3pqyd5d8sqpl6ekuzw3x70k42yc8gnlxsv90tu6 VandelayBTC 🤣 I had to lower this one to 1x instead of the usual 1.5x not because it was Roasbeef speaking but because I was getting neural packet loss too.
