Last Notes npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr Did not see this one coming but I'm here for it. LFG https://fountain.fm/episode/bhD0jlhYb5goXLbsFwKO npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr Yes. And real estate is a massive chunk of collateral for the banking system. If you understand fractional reserve banking, you understand that nominal price declined in the collateral backing bank-issued debt results in a total banking system collapse. If you think real estate is going to decline dramatically in price, you're suggesting that either the Fed (a banking system cartel) will allow the complete collapse of the very system that created the Fed for its own self-preservation, or we're going to get 2008 style bailouts with another zero added to the amount. npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr That purple line at the bottom that's down 63% in gold terms since 2022? That's the "safe" global reserve asset, US Treasury bonds. The US stole $300 billion of Russia's Treasury Reserves. But since then, their $130 billion in gold reserves have almost doubled in price, gaining over a third of the value stolen by the US. You don't think the rest of the world, especially China and the ME, noticed? And you don't think anyone noticed that the only asset that actually outperformed gold happens to be the only asset that has BETTER neutral reserve asset properties than gold? As @nprofile…ad8w always says, nothing stops this train. Buckle up. https://blossom.primal.net/5f452c2fb671734f17afd1c4081afa9114235e78c82790fb099a6bafea482733.png npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr @nprofile…nrxl I'm having an ongoing bug with the android app. When I view feeds in the explore tab, I can scroll through the list of notes or long-form reads, but I can't open them.

But they're not opposed to doctors and hospitals when needed, that's always an individual choice. They do both home births and hospital births, but I couldn't say how the percentage breaks down. My sense is that home births are less than half in the more progressive Amish communities, and more than half in the more conservative communities. But I don't have any good data to back that up. I'd say it's similar to childhood vaccinations, where I often hear the claim that "the Amish don't vaccinate their children, that's why they don't have x problem." But that's simply false, many do vaccinate. Again, it's the parents' choice whether to do so or not. npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr My favorite Bitcoin chart https://m.primal.net/QxKn.png npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr You can't park money "in" assets, that's an economics myth. If you buy an asset, the money doesn't go "into" the asset, it goes into the bank account of the person selling the asset to you. They can either hold it in their bank account and get inflated away, or immediately turn around and spend it to buy something, which starts the same cycle over again. Without understanding that about the way money works, it's impossible to understand why asset prices move or why price inflation happens. npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr Understanding this would dispense with a lot of financial jargon and nonsense that prevents people from understanding markets and price movements. #nevent1q…vds8 #naddr1qv…rwdk npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr Fiat currency and fractional reserve banking provide the ideal environment for psychopaths to thrive.

Unfortunately I doubt more than 0.001% of people even understand vaguely what money is and how and why it works, so the odds that they'll differentiate between functional money and defective money at a philosophical level is nil.

I think I can explain what you're referring to, and why you can feel it within the Bitcoin ecosystem. The fact is, it's a really fundamental concept not just to Bitcoin, but to understanding what money in general is, and why it works. Money is, or should be, equity in civilization. That's a seismic shift from money being debt, the way the current system functions, and it isn't a concept I've heard anyone else explain. I wrote an article referencing the first time I heard you express this concept on Citadel Dispatch, and it's basically the conclusion to my series of articles on money and how it functions. If you wrap your head around the concept, it will fundamentally change the way you understand the world, and give some insight into how radically different things might look under a Bitcoin-based monetary system. https://primal.net/a/naddr1qqty6mmwv4uj6stn94zhzatfw3uj6v3ew35kwagzyz7xengn5vhef5m9vndv3avk8gxkn3vrextgxsdmmunckg04xzvwgqcyqqq823cdagp44 npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr You mentioned the idea of Bitcoin as shared equity in this episode.

I have a few issues/questions that have come up in the process. 1. I've been using @npub1w0r…cu4x to post the articles. In the most recent article, I added some images to the text. The images show up fine in Highlighter, but not in @npub12vk…pugg or @npub1nz6…0w5y. 2. I've linked previous articles in my recent articles by pasting in the note ID. Sometimes when I open it in Primal, it shows up correctly as a quote, other times it just shows the ID text string. Maybe I should be using the note link rather than the note ID? 3. Most of the zaps aren't showing up in Primal. If I zap myself, that shows up. I'm not sure where the other zaps are coming from, but they show up in my wallet, but not attached to my article in Primal. Not at my computer ATM so I don't know whether they're showing up in Highlighter or not. #asknostr npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr Nothing has changed.

Amish children grow up surrounded by siblings, observing, and as they get older, helping with the care and maintenance of a large family. All their relatives, cousins and extended family, are also likely to belong to large families. The average Amish child grows up with dozens of first cousins, and hundreds of more distant cousins, who they likely know well and socialize with regularly. This experience establishes a mental framework where a large family is assumed to be the default. And there is no stronger human tendency than the urge to fit in with the people around you.” npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr https://open.substack.com/pub/rightflank/p/universal-basic-income-just-crashed?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=3i492j UBI is a communist scam . npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr Working on a new Substack article on demographics. "I have read numerous articles and comments that reference the Amish to support this or that theory on the cause of falling fertility.

This isn’t surprising, given the insular and poorly-understood nature of the culture, the plethora of ridiculously incorrect “Amish” reality TV shows and pop culture myths, and the fact that the number of people with firsthand knowledge of Amish culture from an insider perspective who also write about demographic trends on any public platform is probably zero.

Those new tools and processes can then be used to more efficiently create other tools and processes, which increases productivity even further, and the whole thing compounds on itself in an exponential curve of increasing productivity and increasing wealth.

Gradually, then suddenly. Money supply has been shrinking for a while now, but that inevitably collapses the financial system because they're way too leveraged. And at that point it's if, not when, the next liquidity deluge hits. That tighten>collapse>bailout>inflation cycle has been repeating at increasing size and tempo since 2000. Eventually a cycle becomes big enough that they can't stuff it back in the bag so to speak, and people just want to get out of the currency at all costs. That's when the wage-price spiral happens. In the US we're being flooded with cheap Chinese goods and cheap Guatemalan labor. But that won't save them in the end, because the Chinese and Guatemalans will also demand higher wages to survive. The people actually doing the work always have the power at the end of the day. The elites are just terrified of the day the masses realize that fact. In the US something like skilled construction labor costs went up by 20-40% since 2019 and they aren't coming back down. Living expenses haven't fallen, and tradesmen are continuing to raise their prices even as the building industry gets squeezed by lower demand. That's the earliest glimmer of labor shifting the pricing power back in their direction. npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr There are tens of trillions in bank deposits and cash in the US alone. "Someone" is holding every dollar at all times, so every dollar created is debasing someone's savings. Most just don't realize it. But the worst debasement isn't savings, it's the lag in wages keeping up with prices. Every wage earner gets debased through that, and for a non-trivial amount. Hyperinflation happens when wage earners finally catch on, and proactively demand wage increases higher and faster than price increases. That's what happened in Germany and Austria in the 1920s. The bougie "elites" were aghast at the wages demanded by their domestic servants, while their own "risk-free investment" in government bonds had evaporated to essentially zero. That's the dreaded "wage-price spiral" the Fed has been freaking out about since 2021. npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr Reminder that climate "science" is as ridiculous as voodoo, and even more evil. https://video.nostr.build/4359ed5915c37406ebcfb2436025704db7160fc90db01e071eed0f4295b591d4.mp4 npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr Yeah I think a bridge in some little town that only gets local traffic is exactly the kind of unproductive investment a sound money standard will kill. Imagine how that project gets built today. Massive debt issuance by the state, or taxes on people who will never use the bridge. I see the fact that these projects under a Bitcoin standard either don't happen, or get fronted by a wealthy local benefactor, as a really good thing. I don't want my taxes and the inflation of my savings building bridges in Podunk Missouri. Let's use that to build SMR's or desalination plants or something really worthwhile. npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr The project might not be a good allocation of resources. Under a sound money standard, that becomes obvious quickly. If it can't produce enough profit from tolls to repay the loan, it's a poor use of resources. The market is telling you that people value something else more than they value the bridge. Maybe adding a second ferry to reduce the wait time is a better allocation of resources? We've been brainwashed by fiat economics to see any infrastructure or any business that "makes money" as productive. Without the ability to finance those things through inflation by issuing debt, only projects that provide a lot of real value will be able to get financing. Anything else will have to be paid up front, by someone who values the project for other than purely economic reasons. npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr Under the current system, the interest for loans comes from new loans. That's why M2 only goes up to the right, and any pause collapses the entire financial system. That's a consequence of the debt/fiat system based on the fraud of usury, where banks charge interest to loan out money they don't have. Imagining a Bitcoin standard is tough right now, because we're in a brief blip with Bitcoin rapidly appreciating in value as in gets monetized. Eventually that process slows down and stops. At that point Bitcoin deflates at the rate of economic growth. That's a lot slower than the current value appreciation. At that point loans become possible, as long as it's for a genuinely productive use that beats the overall rate of economic growth. Loans don't go away, but massive misallocation of capital does. npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr Another good reason to avoid centralized platforms, for both posting and reading. https://m.primal.net/Iock.jpg https://m.primal.net/Iocn.jpg https://m.primal.net/Iocp.jpg https://m.primal.net/Iocr.jpg https://m.primal.net/Iocs.jpg npub1h3kv6yar972dxetymty0t936p45utq7fj6p5rw7ly79jrafsnrjqvuwlmn f0xr Charging interest will always be attractive to those making the loan, as far as I can see. The difference is that under a sound money standard, paying interest on unproductive debt becomes completely untenable. This is partially a result of misunderstanding what money is. Debt as money is a terrible perversion of the concept of money as a ledger of deferred consumption. A sound money economy makes a lot more sense once you start thinking of money as equity, rather than debt and fiat. If you had to take out a loan of Exxon shares and repay it in Exxon shares + more Exxon shares, the bar for profitable use of debt goes up. https://open.substack.com/pub/f0xr/p/money-as-equity?r=3i492j&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web
