Oddbean new post about login | logout Can you explain to me how using the broken voting system to fix other broken things is supposed to work, because I'm pretty sure I can't change my brakes, if all my tools are broken.... We lose with any side we pick. Just like with using fiat. Opt out. Buy and save in bitcoin.
Politics are composed of people who need to win majorities in public votes to maintain their positions. If all of those elected have to fight for the support of long term Bitcoin holders who value freedom above all else, I can't see a system where totalitarianism runs as rampant as it does today. What I'm thinking of isn't so much using politics to fix things, but the adoption of Bitcoin creating a more self sovereign voting base to limit the power of politicians.
