There was a line in Broken Money by nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a that was something to the effect that governments eventually add so many laws and regulations that the system eventually grinds itself to a halt because it becomes impossible to both navigate and enforce. We are right at that point. Absolutely everything is met with a lawsuit and trial now. They are trying to make some high profile examples to keep you fearful and thinking that the system is still functional. It is not, and don’t be afraid. Live your life.
