The solution to inflation is cutting government spending.

When you "fight inflation" by manipulating commodities markets you get producer revolts in the form of things like farmer protests and wars in the Middle East.

@Tfmonkey in our case the manipulation is through the banks so the only form of backlash will be in shortages

@Tfmonkey meanwhile, as an Aerospace engineer, I am laughing at the ongoing MAX debacle at Boeing. Our American society has cultivated a technical skills depression for decades and has more recently poured gas on the fire with all of the new corporate initiatives. This is why I have never watched that propaganda movie about black women that put men on the moon.

"While we've made progress and strengthened our safety management and quality control systems and processes in the last few years, situations like this are a reminder that we must remain focused on continuing to improve every day," -Dave Calhoun, CEO of Boeing

Okay, what about the half a dozen new values you have embraced over decades?

@Tfmonkey Is Good to hyperinflate The cumrrency
cause that way we create a problem AND offer a solution that Is CDC.

I want so much inflation people decide to only use barter and never use money again

If the money is worth nothing and you double the money supply you cut it's value in half but it is worth the exact same amount which is nothing

Money always has been a Ponzi Scheme from the very beginning

Gold does not have value as money but it has value for making tools out of gold

@shortstories @VeganMGTOW @Tfmonkey Gold has value because it's hard to get more gold too. Like analogue blockchain. 😏
@BowsacNoodle @shortstories @VeganMGTOW @Tfmonkey Plenty of crap is hard to get and rarer, gold has many real world applications.

@white_male @Tfmonkey @VeganMGTOW @BowsacNoodle

Dodo bird poop would be very rare but would it be more valuable than gold

@shortstories @Tfmonkey @VeganMGTOW @BowsacNoodle I'm implying rarity plus usefulness make it valuable, also it's shiny. Not any rare crap, there has to be demand.
@white_male @shortstories @VeganMGTOW @Tfmonkey I'm making a funny friend, of course. Gold doesn't oxidize, it's insanely malleable, a very good conductor, etc. The lack of oxidation is why it's used in most places.

@BowsacNoodle @Tfmonkey @VeganMGTOW

Blockchain is a ponzi scheme for the same reason paper & electronic money & seashell or sea dollar money are ponzi schemes

If you are stuck with it and no one will trade for it then it has no use for you

If you are stuck with food and no one will trade for it then it has use for you because you can eat it so it is not a ponzi scheme

@shortstories @Tfmonkey @VeganMGTOW It's only a ponzi scheme until it's mass adopted. At that point it's just a currency alternative. The success of failure of blockchain tech depends on getting more users, BUT it doesn't require infinite growth in users, which makes it not a ponzi scheme.

@BowsacNoodle @Tfmonkey @VeganMGTOW

Money is like the hot potato game if you are the last person to have it when no one else wants it then it is useless to you and you lost whatever item you traded to get it

No one wants to be the last person holding the hot potato when time runs out

Now if it was a real hot potato instead of money you could eat it when the time runs out and no one would trade with you

@shortstories @Tfmonkey @VeganMGTOW Sure, but that same thing applies to any fiat currency which normal discourse doesn't dismiss as a ponzi scheme.
@shortstories @Tfmonkey @VeganMGTOW By definition, it isn't. We can argue the details of whether it's good, bad, or neutral, but it is not a ponzi scheme.

@BowsacNoodle @Tfmonkey @VeganMGTOW

I propose the United States print out as much money as possible then buy lots of scarce and useful items with it

Then when the money is worthless they will have scarce and useful items but the people who took the money from them will be stuck with useless money

@shortstories @Tfmonkey @VeganMGTOW a less dramatic but very real version of this happened with lenders and bond buyers in the 2015-2021 era.

@Tfmonkey Is he still bitching about the same thing for over a fucking year now?

@Tfmonkey And assassinations, of former Trump administration us Commodities futures trade commission exchange,Mike Gill coincidence? Or was he going to expose the manipulation?

@Tfmonkey I'm looking forward to a day when "revolts" means guillitines and mass executions of political families and bureaucrats. No judge, no jury, only executioners. All federal civilian employees from top to bottom can get fuckin' hanged for all I care. A man can dream, right?

@Engineer Sorry that won't happen The closest thing so what Is going to happen is something similar to The fell Society Unión.

@Tfmonkey No. The TV told me that to fight inflation we need to fight, racism, climate change, misogyny, and white people.
