Positioning yourself to do well in an environment which is certain to cause others to do poorly (naive and unprepared as they may be) isn’t something to celebrate, it’s something to be faced with the grim determination of someone doing something hard but necessary for their family.

I don’t know that the money being broken is the root of the problem with education. I think both money and education have the same root, specifically widespread trust in an institution that does not deserve that trust.
If the money was fixed, but the trust in government education remained at today’s levels, the money is going to be corrupted again in one or two generations.

Putting aside that the murdered man was against what you’re suggesting, gun concentration (what some people erroneously call “gun control”) is gun violence, because everything The State does is ultimately backed up by gun violence or threats thereof. Additionally, gun concentration policies have a very poor track record for anyone The State deems undesirable, I’m sure you’re aware of enough 20th century history to know that. Knowing this, my answer is and will always be: stack up and try.
Also, there are some words that come to mind when I think of someone using a political opponents brutal murder to try to score political points for something he would vehemently oppose, but loving is about as far from my mind as you can get.

That’s not what this is.
This sets the stage to allow bitcoin to qualify for asset verification during mortgage underwriting without having to sell the bitcoin (and incur taxes). The asset backing the mortgage is still the house and only the house. Even the asset eligibility change is still probably 6+ months away.

Maybe DOGE should just delete it all, shut down the databases, and fire everyone responsible for analyzing and maintaining the data. I bet that’d save a lot of money.
They won’t, of course, since it’s mostly for show. DOGE deleting the data is about as likely as the NYT still caring that the government has all this data after their preferred politicians are in charge again.

"Among the most advanced topics in the literature in the Austro-libertarian milieu is that which deals with the workings of the fully free society, that is, the society with no state, or anarcho-capitalism. Robert Murphy deals with this head on, and makes the first full contribution to this literature in the new century. Working within a Rothbardian framework, he takes up the challenge of Hans Hoppe regarding the role of market insurance in property security to extend the analysis to the security of person.
His applications are part empirical and part speculative, but unfailingly provocative, rigorous, and thoughtful. The title itself refers to the supposed chaos that results from eliminating the state but Murphy shows that out of chaos grows an ordered liberty. Anyone interested in exploring the farthest reaches of anarchist theory must come to terms with Murphy’s account."

This was a good episode on Trump’s tariff plan.
I’m very sympathetic to the view expressed that the reason the late-19th century saw unprecedented economic growth was that the government was spending a low single digit amount of GDP, and not from tariffs being the primary revenue source.
