Absolutely. nostr:note1g6w30c0znrx487vemg84f7jd2dc45nf39xypfx0n0nwxvjetyg4qu9tdln
So it's the first amendment's fault?
it’s not about blaming the First Amendment itself but about recognizing how it creates a loophole. When candidates know they can make grand promises without being held accountable, they exploit this freedom for political gain. They’ve been doing it for more than a century. Presidents come and go, but the promises remain empty, and the system unchanged. Actually the system is only getting worse. Instead of putting faith in a system that won’t deliver, consider opting out, choosing not to vote, and living on a sovereign sound standard.
They won’t You’re out of touch with the rest of society. Also, the US government already has decentralized powers. They just need to use their powers, but the supreme court is full of cowards
They all get paychecks from the Federal Government and those paychecks are denominated in Fiat Currency which is about as arbitrary and devaluing as you can get so no matter who is doing what they still worship fiat currency and it's invisible inflation, devaluation process. Unless there is an executive branch that will recognize Bitcoin and mandate it's metered use ( a use based on the finite maximum denominator of 21,000,000).
Three branches of a centralized government. Much decentralization
This looks like I wrote this drunk. Please clarify.
A MASSIVE macroeconomic move of money from public sector to private sector, WILL take place. Millions of Public sector jobs are going to disappear. It will be a wholesale removal. Political favoritism won't help near as much as in the past. Entire Federal departments are going away. An example is the Federal department of Education. 50k employees and $ 90 billion budget are toast. I'd bet on that. The debt burden has reached it peak. Public trust peaked and is dropping fast. Lenders are stepping away fast. Optimism is waning. Money is running out. The ability to PRINT MONEY is ending. Trust in All things government are at historic lows. The ability to cheat in elections is crashing. The ability for the government to censor is going away. Speed of economic change is gonna be faster than anyone realizes. It gonna be a "wake up in the morning type change", it's going to happen very fast.
Unfortunately, I believe very little of this is true... Printing money will never stop Debit will continue to rise Public sector jobs will soon be the *only* jobs available Elections will continue to be corrupt Censorship is on the rise (enhanced by AI)
Won't happen until they run out money. Or maybe an election so fake that nobody can deny it.
