In the West you cannot work without the consent of the government, all activities and jobs are regulated and supervised by the government.
Think about it.
Bitcoin is not the complete solution, we have many more problems besides Fiat money.
Agorism is the solution, create economies parallel to the state.
Being actively agonist is the only thing will diminish the overreaching grasp of statists.
This is facilitated now with bitcoin.
Yes, the money had to come first. #bitcoin
We just hired a bunch of new guys. You can’t even get most jobs without a social insurance number and a bank account, so they can hook you up to at-source income tax deductions anymore.
Saw this when I visited europe. The lady we stayed with wanted to start her own business from home, but explained that she had to first apply for some kind of license to do it and it's manditory for ANY business. She just wanted to cut hair and do people's nails and you have to pay a few hundred euros to apply. I was like wtf? They have to know everything you're busy with? Want to sell some art that you make at home? Apply first. Ridiculous
