No? Aside from waging war to gather resources, it costs a lot to do bad things that most people don't want done. You can ONLY do that by debasing hard money or sliding into fiat. Hard money puts very firm limits on the badness that can be done at one time. EVERY time a civilisation/country starts to dabble in wholesale war, it can only be accomplished through evil means, usually starting with devaluing the money to increase supply. BTC can effectively put an end to that, but... That's not going to stop the current System yet.
