Since Nixon planted the seeds of destruction by stomping down the gold standard, then. About the same time u.s. median wage-earner income stopped growing, and the number of billionaires skyrocketed.  I.e. since Americans became slaves.

All of your activities are being monitored and archived for analysis by ever-increasing machine intelligence.  If your "metadata" is deemed untoward, you will be killed by a drone, "lawfully".

In China, if you make bearish statements about the markets, you may be imprisoned.  So far, Europe and the Americas still permit individuals to speak freely about markets, as long as they are ignorant ( no inside information ), but they are cut off from mass media if they are "off-message".

Decentralization and cryptographic privacy are the technological counter trend force.  Recruit everyone.  Refuse to transact on monitored channels when you have leverage to control the channel.

Note that this thread is heavily censored.  I am probably persona non grata, because I want you to get rich, by a viable and hence unapproved means.
