I considered some of the things Uncle Ted did as far as technology, before I read his manifesto . I think anyone of sufficient intelligence probably does. Have we really use technology to improve our lives?

Technology is a double edged sword. Personally in 2002 I knew then it was very good and extremely bad. I was handed a one inch stack of computer paper by HR, single spaced, the content had every IP address visited by one of my supervisors over a two week period. Turns out he gave his password to one of his union employees to keep up with March Madness scores. That guy gave the password out to his buddies who went to porn sites and e-mailed images to each other. It spread worse than cancer.
I was shocked at how the company installed this software and tracked 1,000s of employees using e mail and internet. Once installed, they immediately fired 25 people (one an executive) due to visiting porno sites. Right then I asked to get that internet thing off my computer, I was told I needed it to do my job. I got fired that year because I would not put up with the plant BS. Since then I read the IT policy every year since it changes.

My boss two steps up did this over 20 years ago. She was trying to catch one person that was a porn visitor on work computer. My immediate boss convinced her to just take it off and he would counsel the employee.

The IRS already gives people money that turn in tax evaders. Lots of state and local governments have narc on your neighbor for cash for all kinds of things. And then there are the over zealous HOAs.

Gotta give it to you, GCP . . . I am having flashbacks to my childhood with this one – always found the cover fascinating – sort of like Supertramp’s “Crime of the Century” – but haven’t heard this since I was eight (maybe nine) years old. Had forgotten it even existed until I saw the cover – THANKS

Not to worry. Collapse of the dollar will fix what is not otherwise fixable. MSM implodes, pols lose ALL credibility and are ignored. The doers and the right thinkers will prosper while the poseurs perish. Get your silver and your bitcoin.

Yeah, I know, the Internet goes down and bitcoin becomes worthless. Have you considered that your dollars are digitally recorded except what you have stashed as paper somewhere? Paper, mind you. Paper that is redeemable for what? Paper, something the gov’t you despise controls to the point of printing it, and worse can make marks on a digital ledger ad infinitum so that your precious non-bitcoin asset drops to its inevitable level of zero. Like every other fiat in history. If the Internet goes down, who is going to take cash? Then you need silver.

Well, what about privacy? Cash! Can’t trace it. Okay, try crossing a border with ten grand plus. Want to buy a house or car with cash? Now that should never draw attention to you so no problem, right? Gonna pay your monthly bills with cash, your taxes? Do you now do that? No, the problem is gov’t and its power. It’s power comes not only from its capacity to use its “money” to pay for violent enforcement but also from its ability to control “money” and track it. When or if it loses that power by virtue of severe inflation and defended against by this new kind of “currency” that requires no middleman and cannot be inflated, the power shifts to the individual who voluntarily transacts with whomever he pleases.

Nirvana? Perhaps, but then is cash “money” your answer? But no, you will become a farmer and grow some grain for your buffalos and pigeons, slop the pigs, sheer your sheep, and sleep like a baby while hoping your children live so they can do the backbreaking work ahead.

Jack Kornfield, in Buddha’s Little Instruction Book, says, “The trouble is, you think you have time.”

One more thing. Some people in society learn of things to come before us gophers and underdogs. You know, like Druckenmiller, Dalio, Saylor, Musk, Guggenheim, Citibank, Morgan Stanley, J.P. Morgan, and other assorted family offices, hedge funds, and rich people. These units are and have been buying bitcoin. But not you. Too smart for that. I congratulate you for your stand on principles even as bitcoin rockets past $50k and $60k and soon way, way higher. But really, dumb down and participate. A bitcoin can travel. Even if it implodes would you not want a shot at changing the fucking world for the better?

Marlon Brando in that motorcycle movie was asked by this guy, “What are you rebelling against?” Brando says, “Whaddoya got?”

We should take over the air waves and pipe this short film into every home in America. It’s all fun and games with the digital money, UBI etc. UNTIL your life is a living nightmare. The filmmaker left out the coming RATING system that will be equally as tyrannical as you won’t be able to rent a car, hotel room, borrow money etc. if you have a low PERSONAL rating. It’s coming and it’s ugly.

Reject the narrative of fines and rating humans, movies OK, humans ….NO.
