Exchanging Freedom and Liberty For Government Welfare, Will Free-Market Education Help or Hurt Totalitarians – January 24, 2021,
Although I consider myself a Gold-Bug, I don’t ignore the potential power of Blockchain. I’m not the Peter Schiff type of Gold Bug. Peter Schiff in case people don’t know bashes Bitcoin to grow his social media following. In the world of business, any attention is good attention and Peter Schiff has hitched his wagon on the Bitcoin gravy train to the point that whenever most people think about Bitcoin, they think about Peter Schiff. It’s genius, from a marketing perspective, but if you’re a believer in BIG GOVERNMENT, people with higher IQ’s like a Peter Schiff will be penalized for being creative.
When I was in Public School I hated it, I mean I really hated it, even back in the 1980s and 1990s schools were dissolving into estrogen fueled institution centers in which both boys and girls were given a public education based on the perception of what entitled school teachers felt aligned with the goals of their Public Sector labour unions.
So as an example as teacher’s salaries rose in Toronto Canada, things like woodshop, home-economics, and apprenticeship training moved from middle and high schools into colleges. The Female teachers along with their mute male teachers lumped everyone together and thought it was best that all of us pressured a college and university education, whether we as students wanted it or not.
I grew up in poverty, even as an adult I’m used to having only 1 meal per day. I wanted to learn a trade, so I can work and get the hell out of my situation, instead of the schools helping me to achieve my goal, they made it difficult, adding regulation after regulation, testing, fees, finding a mentor, jumping through all sorts of hoops, it was ridiculous, I remember talking to family members in the United States who long ago become tradespeople making over $100K because their parents were smart enough to move to the right U.S State.
How it works in the Western World is that large chunks of people want to have JOB-PROTECTION, even in Canada, when Uber came into being the establishment taxi cab industry used the power of the government to attempt to stop the spread of Uber. I believe in British Columbia the Taxi Lobby was successful with regulating Uber.
That in a nutshell in case you’re wondering is why society is heading further Left. The Greed of the Leftists worldwide is disgusting, however, because the Political-Left is successful with regulating entire industries from ever becoming competitive, who can blame a young person who doesn’t know any better from believing that it’s those evil greedy capitalists who are bringing about poverty to ‘people-kind’.
I have stated countless times, that I’m not against Fiat-money, in fact, it could be helpful to capitalism, the problem with fiat-money are legal tender laws and the mere fact that fiat money is tied to the Government and the central banks all over the world are made to make stupid politicians with bad ideas appear to be very smart people.
Now, depending on how you’re educated, as you age, eventually, you’ll realize that politicians and people the media tell you are smart people who you should aspire to be like, really are nothing more than totalitarian control freaks, that if left to the market would be exposed to as the frauds that they are.
A lot of children are trained not to question authority, and these children grow into adulthood with the same ideology. That has always been the fear of FREEDOM and LIBERTY, the fear is that the establishment will lose control.
Way back when people used to believe that war was the to go, it was the free market that gave them the idea that there was an alternative option. When people are focused on bartering and trading with each other, they don’t have the time or the energy to be enemies or to go to war. War is expensive and bad for business and despite what some capitalists will tell you, business doesn’t have to be war, business only becomes war when one person puts profits ahead of humanity and then is rewarded by the minions who allow this crazed person or group of persons to enjoy their property while destroying civilization.
The best democracy is in the free-marketplace, but people should be trained that they do not lead a political leader to teach or regulate them into believing what’s right and wrong. So if you read the article below it’s talking about Blockchain, which really will change the world, but already, you can see that the Government control freaks want to control and regulate it because of what they think might compromise their monopolistic powers.
One of the major reasons the economy didn’t crash under Donald Trump was because of the cuts he did to regulations, but you see Donald trumps regulation cuts also made him an enemy of a lot of powerful people. Regulations are monopolies, regulations in western societies are why the Chinese Communist Party continue to be more capitalistic than western Nations.
Regulations are a form of totalitarian rule, it may not seem like it, because the frog is being boiled at medium temperature, but regulations could actually make a western society worse off than a Communist society. So here lie the future challenges of blockchain, which is the same challenges I see with Bitcoin, once the regulators crack down on it, in fear of the freedom and liberty it could bring to the world, now what?
Interesting times ahead!
