I like the fact that Marty Bent wants to open a brick factory so that people can make buildings that last.

An interesting read for two reasons:
1) highlights the small victories won in court against warrantless surveillance, and
2) provides insight into how the IRS tried to implement new enforcements while also claiming they were not quite finished yet and therefore could not be challenged in court


Coin Center
Two victories in our fight against unconstitutional financial surveillance.
We won an appeal of the dismissal of our 6050I lawsuit and the draft IRS broker reporting forms no longer include software devs.
Since we're sitting at $218,000,000,000,000+ in unfunded gov't obligations, I think it's likely someone out there is not going to get what the politicians promised. Unless, of course, we can just make our great grandchildren pay for it [maniacal laugh].
**An unfunded government liability is a debt or obligation that a government has promised to pay in the future, but lacks the necessary funds to cover the payment, creating a financial burden for future generations.**

Prices in a free market fall to the marginal cost of production.
What's the marginal cost of production of one $USD?
Compare that to the marginal cost of production of one #Bitcoin, over time. Say, the last 10 years...
#Plebchain
The natural state of a free market is deflationary.
So why are things getting more expensive?
#Plebchain
Price controls are just more fiat.
Gov't: "I'll tell you what something is worth to you."

I transmute my contempt for $USD fiat price control(ler)s...into #Bitcoin stacking resolve.
Instead of merely feeling angry, I become more purposed in my goal to get more #Bitcoin for my family.

Like the characteristics of #Bitcoin?
#Nostr shares its decentralized and pseudonymous nature
#Keet shares its peer-to-peer-no-middle-man nature
#Bitcoin is ethical
because it is honest
because it is accurate
because the math checks out
because my node verified
Every. Single. Transaction.
What will happen when an expansive money like $USD gets crammed into a finite money like #Bitcoin
#Bitcoin has made me see wrongs in the world that I hadn't been previously aware of.
The functional virtues of #Bitcoin highlight the flaws of manipulated monies, and lead me to increasingly wonder about the nature of the manipulators.
So goodness increases awareness of badness.
#Plebchain
I know what #Bitcoin is.
The fiat monies that surround it try to project their problems onto it, but #Bitcon just eats them and says thank you.

Accurate data has utility.
Honesty is a virtue.
Reality matters.
Knowing what is true - and what is not - it's important.
#Bitcoin doesn't lie.
#Plebchain
Low time preference.
