I cut out bread and plan to work on an #antiinflammatory diet. I believe the flour most #bread uses (even the healthy kind) spikes insulin far too high.

#Bloomberg Daybreak used to be very centrist and I enjoyed that. Now that we are in an election year, they have changed their tone to a left leaning bias.

The root problem with conventional currency is all the trust that's required to make it work. The central bank must be trusted not to debase the currency, but the history of fiat currencies is full of breaches of that trust. Banks must be trusted to hold our money and transfer it electroni-cally, but they lend it out in waves of credit bubbles with barely a fraction in reserve. - #Nakamoto

The international gold standard worked for several decades during peacetime but was inherently flawed from the start due to how many claims it enabled to exist on such a small monetary base of actual gold, and it failed its first test as soon as war broke out between major powers in Europe. - Broken Money, (Alden p. 301-302) #goldstandard

โ€œGold is the best among just about every metric and is the commodity with the highest stock-to-flow ratio by far. The one weakness it has compared to other commodities is that it's not very divisible.โ€ - Broken Money, Lyn Alden.
