I spent time today preparing my taxes. I pay a lot. I don’t mind paying the ones that go to social services and to benefit other people, other species, or the environment, because my wants are less important than my participation within the Earth system.
I very much mind the 51% that goes to warring on other people that want to live their lives, so that corporations can exploit them for their resources and for their labor.
Bitcoin will force governments to spend on the things that its people condone, which is rarely war.
