I’m simply always away. It’s less misleading than being randomly away because I do actual work and am not glued to the computer.

our current population boom

Huh what?

deflationary economies are terrible for everyone

That’s a myth spread by modern monetary theorists because they only understand the economy from an inflationary perspective. Economies worked fine for millennia without inflationary money.

Don’t you understand that artificially induced unlimited growth is bad? It’s not about inflation or deflation, but the outcome.

Crypto is literally just machines wasting energy on purpose to create false scarcity

A monetary system that is designed to lead to eternal, cancerous growth through intentionally inflating the money supply is far worse.
