I just watched The Big Short


We're not gonna fucking make it /biz/, the West will collapse in our lifetime.

Our whole economy is based off of literally printing fake money to fund corrupt institutions who use this money for government takeover, while the government never intends to pay any of this money back. Everyone keeps borrowing more and more debt and also never wants to pay it back. I work in the banks and I see the shit mortgages everywhere, no one has funds in their account to last them more than 2 weeks. I am so fucking livid how stupid can people be?

Someone please prove me wrong and tell me it'll all be ok, because I feel fucking hopeless for our future.

I would sacrifice democracy if it meant a JUST society where these corrupt pigs who have robbed an entire planet would pay with their life. I want to see people locked up for life for stealing millions. I want them in gulags.

I'm so fucking angry, we're never going to make it. Our societies are just vehicles for corruption now. Our laws systems were designed to suppress violence in medieval societies and a far too primitive to curb financial crime. We are going to lose everything eventually and we're powerless to stop it.

if you actually understood how money supply work you'd see how all """"tethers"""" have a breaking point.

A tether works until it snaps then it's useless. It's right there in the name.

Train MMA, work on your charisma and learn how to carry yourself. Learn other languages. Big crashed need men to lead. If you prepare yourself accordingly, you have nothing to fear and everything to gain. Be an opportunist.

It's nice to say that but we could be planning a bright future for a brilliant society that would utilize blockchain to curb corruption and bring a fair, trustless society. Blockchain could be used to make elections 100% provably corruption free, law systems could maybe even operate on a blockchain, it's not just money, and not just about blockchain either.

We have totally stagnated culturally and technologically. It's just about improving things, there's no innovation. We have all the tech to make a perfect society but the will just isn't there. The Romans had a similar fate..... they just didn't get how to move past where they were and it stagnated until the sky basically fell on them. They knew about steam power but just couldn't use it. Why would they? They had slaves after all. They just didn't get it.

We are the same. Using antiquated solutions to modern problems, it's just OVER.

Meh, not really you're just angry, and I know that feel
However, when one is either angry or sad (or other of sundry negative emotions) everything seems more important than it is
If crypto goes through, and becomes a force in the real world/is taken up widely by the broader population, individuals will essentially be canny to doing things formerly only available to large corporations or extremely rich individuals
Things like easy and safe tax evasion, as if by cash but with the power of the internet, and then governments will have to figure out how to deal with these new "superpowers" the a regular man has gained
Namely, more or less voluntary participation in a given society, a REAL social contract
