If you are bound by a shackle, do you call it “broken”?

So why do we say money is broken?

I get the rhetoric, it’s powerful, and true superficially, but it mistakes the nature of money for some morally neutral and object.

My book is almost done. With a little curiosity, the moral case shows, yes fiat is an immoral tool of control, but that’s its purpose, it’s literally doing the thing it’s designed to do. that’s not “broken.”

Break free from the modern chains, yes. Monetary sovereignty free you, but doesn’t have anything to do with changing the nature of the world.
It’s still the same reality, whether you are in chains or not.
