    Did you grow up under authoritarian rule?

    What government do you live under? I only know of Americans wanting to further diminish the powers of an already weak government.

  3. Are you suggesting that cryptos cannot be manipulated? If anything, I would think they are much more susceptible to manipulation. Consider the volatility; why do you think that is?

    I absolutely agree that there is lots of manipulation, but this will I think lessen over time once BTC stabilizes at a much higher price.

    The price can be manipulated in the short term, but supply simply cannot. This is of course unlike what the government can do with fiat. If a hard global money is used, governments won't have the money to go to war as an example.

    You shouldn't be using examples that are going to bite you in the behind as soon as you spell them out.

    if you don’t eat too much it’s not bad.

    I was shocked in the movie supersize me that a normal meal at McDonald’s in the 1950s was a regular hamburger, small fries, and small coke. Now the value combo meals are like 2-3x the size with large fries, large coke and two Big Macs.

  10. I did. My father was a dictator and my mother was a tyrant. Grandpa was a despot. Yeah they loved me but there was no question of who had the power or whether our family was a democracy or not, or even a market economy.
