I was just pointing out some common facts that any University educated person in the US already understands. I have no opinion on the subject....

And, as far as the social programs that the rich put in place: they put them there for they're own protection!  Do you think that police are hired to protect the poor?  Or, welfare programs are in place because the poor get paid well?  Or, prisons are built to house investment bankers?  Police are hired to stop the poor from slapping the shit out of the rich and taking back their money!  Welfare programs are in place to appease the unemployed so as to maintain a larger labor pool!  And, prisons are built to house those who disagree with the system!

Don't agree with the tax system?....don't use the highways, don't bitch when your water is polluted, don't call the cops when a hood rat threatens to take your stuff, and don't complain when you're city is bombed!

I'm not directing any of this at you specifically....I'm just trying to illustrate a situation that I think we're over simplifying.  Believe me, I have no opinion....I have more than I will ever need thanks to the free market.  I just think it's important to point out facts rather than chase delusions.  The world is constantly at war!  There is a huge global wealth disparity.  And, there is a controlling population of over privileged people who are too distant from global reality, too caught up in there baser daily activities, and too arrogant to listen to facts.

There are no easy questions, no perfect solutions, and no reasonable expectations that people will begin to be fair with one another within the context of our current global economy.

Why was bitcoin conceived? Was it conceived to concentrate wealth or redistribute wealth? How does it fit into our current global economy?  Things are getting BIG!  We need to  start thinking on a macro-scale rather than confine our thinking to our micro-realities! You want to turn a profit off of bitcoin? Embrace its global potential!
