When you buy #bitcoin you are selling dollars. Or said a different way… Buying the new world and selling the old crumbling world. #[1]

In the age of consumerism and economic disparity, one critical tool remains conspicuously absent from the arsenal of educational institutions: financial literacy. As we delve in to this world of personal finance, a perplexing truth emerges—a truth deliberately concealed from the masses. We know this is a problem and yet we still don nothing and remain uninvolved for our most precious asset; our children. Please join me as I continue to unravel the ills of our society and what we can do to fix them. Please share this out with as many people as possible as the algorithms hate truth, and we are our own best hope. Reason 1: Perpetuation of Consumerism In a world driven by relentless advertising and unquenchable desires, ignorance is not only bliss but also profitability. The powers that be understand this all too well. By obfuscating financial literacy from the curriculum, they ensure a steady flow of malleable consumers—individuals ill-equipped to resist the siren call of materialism. Without the necessary knowledge to navigate the deep waters of personal finance, the masses become easy prey, falling into the clutches of impulsive spending, mounting debts, and an insatiable appetite for unnecessary possessions. Financial illiteracy sustains the cycle of consumerism, serving the interests of those who profit from our collective ignorance. Reason 2: Preservation of Economic Inequality As the world grapples with widening economic disparities, the absence of financial literacy in schools plays a pivotal role in maintaining the status quo. Those in positions of power and privilege understand that knowledge is power—an understanding they use to their advantage. By withholding financial education from marginalized communities and low-income individuals, the system perpetuates a deeply-rooted inequality that denies them the opportunity to break free from the shackles of financial adversity. It is through this deliberate exclusion that the divide between the haves and have-nots continues to grow, leaving the disadvantaged struggling while the privileged prosper. Reason 3: Influence of Special Interest Groups Behind the scenes, hidden hands manipulate the educational landscape, ensuring the absence of financial literacy remains steadfast. Special interest groups, including banks, credit card companies, and financial institutions, revel in the financial illiteracy of the masses. With each passing day, those making the rules profit from our ignorance, exploiting unsuspecting consumers through hidden fees, exorbitant interest rates, and endless financial products. Their nefarious grip on the system tightens as financial education remains a distant dream. By evading the light of financial literacy, these entities safeguard their control and preserve their stranglehold on the unsuspecting masses. As the veneer of deception slowly lifts, we gain insight into the insidious reasons behind the omission of financial literacy from schools. The perpetuation of consumerism, the preservation of economic inequality, and the influence of special interest groups form the foundation of this dark conspiracy. However, knowledge is power, and by recognizing the machinations that conspire against us, we can begin to challenge the system. Please stay tuned as we uncover more layers of this captivating tale, shedding light on the hidden truths that shape our financial world. Remember, in a world where ignorance is bliss, it is crucial to arm ourselves with the tools of financial literacy and rise above the orchestrated ignorance that seeks to keep us in chains. What you don’t know can and will hurt you. The world has changed and we were put here specifically for this very time to change the world and make it a brighter place for all people. More coming on the General Education Board and John Rockefeller’s influence from the agrarian age into the industrial age and how it changed our family structures and livelihoods forever. Stay strong.

Are bitcoiners wrong for being with OK that SEC is coming after cryptos? Obviously this week has been crazy and some of my thoughts…the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has filed lawsuits against major cryptocurrency exchanges, Coinbase and Binance. While some individuals within the Bitcoin and crypto community may have mixed feelings about this development, it is important to understand the underlying principles that make Bitcoin unique and why it continues to thrive in the face of regulatory challenges. The Freedom of Bitcoin: Bitcoin stands apart from other cryptocurrencies because it is more than just a digital asset. It represents freedom of speech and is built on a foundation of code, functioning as a decentralized protocol. This means that there is no central authority or leader who can be influenced, corrupted, or silenced. Bitcoin's true believers dedicate their lives to protecting this code and its principles, ensuring its longevity and resilience. Regulation and Bitcoin: While some may view the SEC's actions as an infringement on personal liberties, it is worth noting that consistency in applying existing rules can have positive implications. Even if one questions the legitimacy of the SEC and its regulatory power, it is possible to acknowledge the significance of cracking down on scam projects that deceive and harm individuals. Consistency allows for people to make sound decisions when one knows the landscape. This nuanced perspective allows us to recognize the benefits of regulation while also questioning its necessity. Bitcoin's Fundamentals and Growth: Bitcoin's underlying fundamentals have never been stronger. The increasing number of Bitcoin wallets and the growth of its hash rate, which represents the computational power securing the network, attest to its expanding user base and overall network strength. Moreover, governments worldwide are recognizing Bitcoin as legal tender, further solidifying its position as a viable and trustworthy monetary system. Security and Auditing: One of Bitcoin's remarkable qualities is its transparency and security. Individuals have the ability to run their own nodes and independently audit the code and software. The Bitcoin network is the most scrutinized and secure computer network in existence. The confidence in its protocol has led many to invest their time, capital, and energy into Bitcoin, as they believe in its potential for long-term value. Bitcoin vs. Crypto Exchanges: It is important to distinguish Bitcoin from the broader category of cryptocurrencies and the centralized exchanges where these assets are traded. Bitcoin's true essence lies in its decentralized protocol, which is separate from the operations of exchanges and other cryptos/altcoins. While centralized exchanges can play a role in facilitating the buying and selling of cryptocurrencies, they have nothing to do with Bitcoin itself. In the end: Bitcoin's resilience and value stem from its decentralized nature, its ability to protect freedom of speech, and the robustness of its underlying protocol. As we navigate regulatory challenges and witness Bitcoin's continued growth, it is crucial to understand its unique qualities and remain vigilant in protecting and promoting the principles that make it a revolutionary force in the world of finance. Remember, #Bitcoin is not just another crypto asset—it represents a fundamental shift in the way we perceive and interact with money (our time and energy) and freedom. Stay strong.

In to the breach. Remember why you fight. Life is a test. Will you stand or will you shrivel up in the moment of truth?

Insurance companies will all be buying #bitcoin  hardcore in the coming years or they will all go bankrupt and sink with the US treasury market. Tick tock.

IMO, what scares “leaders” at the top of the money stack is in a #bitcoin world they now have to compete with the 170 IQ person in Africa that they easily locked out of the system before. #btc levels playing field & scares living daylights out of incumbent corp & politicians

The current modern-day situation we find ourselves in because of post-modernism and moral relativism. 🤯🤯🤯👀👀👀 In the field of psychology, cognitive dissonance is the perception of contradictory information and the mental toll of it. Relevant items of information include a person's actions, feelings, ideas, beliefs, values, and things in the environment. Cognitive dissonance is typically experienced as psychological stress when persons participate in an action that goes against one or more of those things. According to this theory, when two actions or ideas are not psychologically consistent with each other, people do all in their power to change them until they become consistent. The discomfort is triggered by the person's belief clashing with new information perceived, wherein the individual tries to find a way to resolve the contradiction to reduce their discomfort. - From wiki

What sets many #bitcoiners apart… I believe certain people namely those in #bitcoin can see patterns very well. We can recognize them easily and correlate to what we have seen in the past and how it relates to the future. This is why so many of us struggle to teach educate and speak to the average person. It’s like we are speaking a foreign language to them. In order to OrangePill people it takes time and we must meet them where they are. 💪🏻

🤯 Incepting bitcoin in to the public conscious through politics… ☄️ In today's political landscape, the power of inception cannot be underestimated. The more politicians discuss a particular topic, the more it permeates the collective consciousness. Whether we like it or not, people still turn to politicians for guidance. Harnessing this dynamic to our advantage is crucial. Bitcoin has the power to transform not only our financial systems but also the politicians themselves. As they become familiar with this revolutionary technology, it holds the potential to reshape the size and influence of government, returning freedom, liberty, and wealth to the hands of the people. • The Power of Local Engagement • Embracing the truth that all politics is local is a vital step towards reclaiming control. By actively participating in local meetings and understanding the candidates running for office, we can enact meaningful change. Following the golden rule and embodying the principles we believe in, we can begin to question the necessity of government itself. Bitcoin provides a path to realign incentives, empowering individuals and restoring power to the people. • The Broken Money and Aligned Incentives • When a broken monetary system drives up costs and erodes the value of our currency, its impact reverberates throughout society. For example: Farmers, in their struggle to sustain their businesses and livelihoods, are forced to make compromises. They resort to using cheaper ingredients, often with unforeseen consequences for our health and the environment. The cycle continues as these compromises perpetuate and degrade the quality of our food supply. Aligning incentives through Bitcoin provides an alternative, fostering nutrient-rich and wholesome products that prioritize the well-being of individuals and the planet. • The Power of the Vote• A common contention arises among libertarians and non-voters who seek to distance themselves from government intervention. However, as Plato shrewdly pointed out, abstaining from voting only ensures that those with opposing ideals will determine the course of governance. By exercising our right to vote, we can influence the political landscape and work towards minimizing the role of government in our lives therefore increasing liberty and prosperity. It is through orange-pilling politicians, enlightening them about the potential of Bitcoin, that we can gradually reduce the size and impact of government, navigating the chaos towards a brighter future. • A Catalyst for Good • In this journey towards reclaiming control, Bitcoin emerges as a catalyst for change. By leveraging the power of inception and embracing the significance of local engagement, we can reshape the political landscape. Aligned incentives, facilitated by Bitcoin, enable us to transcend the limitations of a broken monetary system and forge a path towards greater well-being and prosperity. It is through collective action of individuals, fueled by a shared vision, that we can navigate the collateral damage of the 4th turning transition and emerge stronger on the other side. Let us seize the current political situation and steer the course towards a brighter, freer, and more prosperous future. Stay strong.

The older I get the more and more I enjoy paying with my time and energy for experiences. Funny how that works.

🇺🇸 All Gave Some. Some Gave All. 🇺🇸 My entire life I have felt guilty that I did not serve in the military. Something inside of me has never let me get over that feeling. I loved playing hockey as a kid and when I learned about the US national team, I quickly gravitated toward that, and that became my purpose to “don the sweater” of the United States and serve my country in that way. I completed that goal, but the feeling of guilt still never left my body, as it has not today. There’s a certain fire or a crucible that must be conquered in a man’s life. I’m not sure if it’s a sense of duty or wanting to serve others or protect others but it’s always been there at least for me. So I want to take this time to acknowledge and thank those who have put their life in harm’s way for our benefit. Acknowledge those who have laid down their life for me and my family’s benefit. Acknowledge those who have sacrificed so much and those who have sacrificed even a little in order that me, my family and my children might have a better and more free and prosperous life. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to properly thank or pay back all of those people. I hope in some way selfishly the work I am doing now to try and question everything and bring education to the masses using first principles and logic (to the best of my ability) is at least a fraction of the repayment I can offer. “All gave some, and some gave all,” may be my favorite line when it comes to remembering those who heroically served in order that we may enjoy our lives in this great country. It is all those men and women who have served in the Armed Forces who give credibility and order to this world It’s those men and women that give the world a sense of security and peace that humans had not known for thousands of years. Those men and women navigating the waters or flying the dangerous skies or marching around in search of an unknown predator. It is those people (so many will never be known or forgotten), who give us the chance to live lives where we will know no such danger. I thank you and I hope that you get all the rewards love and respect you deserve. Have a beautiful memorial day, and God bless America! Brandon

We have a duty to spread peace through #bitcoin all around the world as Americans and anyone with any type of privilege in life. What did you do for the world?

All gave some. And some gave all. Blessed to be in 🇺🇸

The world is currently under the illusion of a conjured up and fake system of fiat currency that is designed to serve the interests of the elite at the expense of the rest of society. Fiat currency is created out of thin air and has no intrinsic value, making it subject to endless inflation and devaluation. As a result, we are left with a broken system that incentivizes poor enlightenment, manipulation, and greed.

When we say that incentives are misaligned because of broken money this is one of the reasons why… $37,000,000,000 is spent each year on lobbying. Divide that by 535 congressman and you get over $69,000,000 per congressman spent shilling products and services. Super productive. The epitome of creditism and crony capitalism. Bitcoin starts cleaning this all up by suffocating the cheap credit, fractional reserve lending and currency printing that favor those at the top who understand the broken fiat system. #Bitcoin sends these lobbyists and politicians back home where they came from where they must provide real value to the world. They must pick up a hammer and start building things or farming or starting businesses that produce goods and services that people want which increases competition and lowers costs for the consumer. We can’t begin to comprehend as humans a fraction of the ills and pains we cause by letting governments run the money supply and steal our time and energy through inflation. #few

At the age of the millennials, boomers had 20% of the nation’s wealth. Millennials currently hold 4% of the nation’s wealth. How does this next chapter play out?
