 Where's the "Force" & "Monopoly" pillars?  I mean we are taking down the whole roof, right? 🤫

 These are the two pillars of the State’s revenue. No revenue, no force or monopoly either.

 I've been thinking about your statement.  I've seen some really broke (wallet/mind broke) people exert force and by extension monopolize the attackee... It seems that the closer to zero fiat digits and zero mind blips, the attackor is, the more the attackor is motivated to exert force/monopoly... Not that you're wrong, I just want to aim at the most effective pillar...

 Money is superordinate. No funding or prospect of return, no force.
