A few favourite takes from that show:
The Oil crisis in 1970s was a deeply impactful headwind
The lower/middle class might be poorer compared to the top %, but the low/mid have massively gained in terms of the variety/access to nice things (think technology, variety of food and experiences, car quality)
CPI as a changing basket of goods is not ONLY shifting goal posts to reduce culpability for inflation, it genuinely should shift to reflect change in preferences/habits (but I hold that the CPI measure still seems cucked AF)
That Bitcoin might not replace fiat, but it will be a great measure for restraint/accountability
Those who will most benefit are those who would prefer to dollarise, but are then cucked by being at the mercy of said dollar
Thanks for jumping into the fray.
Also, where does the discussion continue? Should I brave the YT comments, or is NOSTR the place to discuss this?
