The decision to pay a CEO more than its employee is like paying the bodies brain more than its hands. The “hands” brought the brain into existence, and sustains it, fuels it even still, yet has been subsumed, consumed and controlled by this brain. The brain CAN’T survive if it takes too many of the capital-calories of the hands. It takes just ~20% of the calories, being 2% of the bodies mass. CEOs represent .001% of the employee “mass” and even still take vastly more value than their functional contribution—in some cases 300x their lowest paid employee. This system can’t survive. At least not with any measure of health. The brain merely issues commands, coordinates capital—determines where energy flows—and yet the hands generate nearly 100% of the capital that the CEOs lay claim to nearly 90%+ of, in some cases. This cannot last. “My hands don’t seem to be my kin no more...” - From : “What Kind of Way” - by Luay

To the powerful—the overwhelming loud—the sound of the unheard, the voiceless, is merely a transgression. See: you think your dog is breaking rules , transgressing, or being a “bad dog” when they pull on the leash or linger “too long” in one spot. Perhaps they are merely communicating their need in a way we may only hear as wrong. We hear their “voice” as violate… Their truth collides with our control.

Money is our Soma: “The perfect society has found the perfect solution: pleasure, not pain. Pleasure is an infinitely more efficient instrument of control." Mustafa Mond By Aldous Huxley, in Brave New World “Orwell feared we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture... Huxley remarked [on this distinction], 'In [Orwell's book] 1984 people are controlled by inflicting pain. In my book] Brave New World, they are controlled by inflicting pleasure'' - Neil Postman, "Amusing Ourselves to Death", 1985 Today, cheap money printed by the Fed accomplishes what slave labor did in the mercantilist era. It socializes costs onto the unwilling slave population and concentrates its bloody fruit into the hands of the slave owners. Paradoxically though, and most perverse, the slaves of today look like a person with a new car, a new purse, a new house—entirely too big for them—a new watch, a new dog or a new facade of prosperity. Countries in Africa know this particularly well (being such good friend of the IMF…), or at least their bought leaders do. Give a country cheap money and you may destroy it like cheap slave labor afforded the empires the ability to do so. Give a people services and they’ll forever pay for them. Give a people life, prosperity—the same prosperity of a slave living on land owned by their master, using tools owned by their master, harvesting crops owned by their master, eating scraps discarded by their master and living under the shade of their master—and you just might own them. How odd that this era of slavery looks like giving; a so called civilizing; a so-called prosperity purchased, but never owned: an assimilation, a forceful boiling down into consumer capitalist culture. Into the machine. But in fact this machine takes more than it gives. And it takes more and more and more.

Guano was agriculture and Empires gold—synthetic fertilizers made this currency obsolete. And took the countries reliant on it with them. Oil is industry and imperial Empires fiat—solar and nuclear will make this currency obsolete. And Bitcoin is the future of finance. Unlike guano, however, oil can be immediately turned into Bitcoin. This is no mistake. The fall of guano saw the rise of petro-chemical empires. If not careful, the US may become the Peru of the old world, who essentially supplied the world with guano’s agricultural energy, just as we do dollars, and as such, collapsed when the Haber-Bosch process was discovered. This creation saw the rise of Germany as they essentially had a monopoly on the oil of the old world: synthetic guano. Or Ammonium Nitrate. At the same time that it allowed for the explosion of population sizes around the world, it also allowed for the LITERAL explosion of populations around the world as it was used to produce bombs, gunpowder and chemical warfare. Germany’s access to this ammonium gave them a considerable upper hand in WW1 and allowed them to continue producing the munitions needed to continue. However, following WW1 and the Treaty of Versailles, this monopoly was dissolved when the U.S. basically forced Germany to disclose their patents and they were consumed by the U.K, and probably more accurately—as time has told—the U.S. Don’t forget that the money paid to the U.K and France from the Treaty of Versailles—which was loaned to Germany to begin with, by, you guessed it, THE UNITED STATES, went right back to the U.S because they were in debt to them. The U.K and France didn’t own shit. Different from Germany and different from Peru, able to ride the decreasing demand of oil all the way down, the U.S. empire will be able to turn their oil assets and petro-dollar dominance into Bitcoin dominance—fundamentally tying finance to their ability to harness energy, just as guano allowed us to harvest more food from the land and oil allows us to harness the proportional man power of thousands in the form of condensed hydrocarbon energy. Similarly, other forms of energy like nuclear and solar dethrone oil just as synthetic fertilizers did guano, but unlike the empires of the old world, Bitcoin allows for the U.S. to maintain financial dominance while selling the last of its oil reserve to the bitcoin network as it transitions to fundamental energy dominance in the form of nuclear and solar. The problem with nuclear however, and why it hasn’t been implemented full scale despite it being entirely possible (and why its being used on aircraft carriers instead of cities) is two-fold: its just not profitable enough (boo-hoo you capitalists) because of how abundant its energy is, and it would fundamentally destroy the petro-dollar system as China has access to nuclear tech, but they don’t have claims on Saudi, or Iranian oil—which we can bomb, under the guise of nuclear de-armament, decreasing their production from 1.6million barrels a day to only 100,000. But, surprisingly, and perhaps of no mistake whatsoever, Bitcoin solves both of these problems, as it satisfies demand for this abundant energy that just simply doesn’t exist in the market, making the abundant energy that nuclear produces immediately profitable and in demand. It converts the abundant nuclear energy into scarce digital energy that, despite the exponentially decreasing cost of energy, gets exponentially costly to produce, until you can’t anymore. The future of finance is Bitcoin, and unfortunately—or fortunately for you if you own some—it seems like U.S. Palpatine made it. Thankfully though, it may usher in a new era of renewable and sustainable energy, the phasing out of petroleum and the destruction inherent in it, the replacement of soft-fiat money which requires wars be waged to keep it in demand and a global tax on everyone’s money to fund this war machine. Bitcoin is soft power, that will allow us to wage hash-wars—wars of watts—instead of wars of weapons. And perhaps we’ll see the U.S. pull off a miracle of a stunt and maintain its power by turning its oil into bitcoin—the digital oil and energy of the future economy and world.

Bitcoin is the Haber-Bosch of the guano-fiat financial world, ready to tear down the scaffolding built on fiat.

Guano stored agricultural energy. Oil stores industrial energy. And now, Bitcoin will store the energy of the coming world of abundance.

Unlike ammonium nitrate which required only coal and oxygen, two of the most abundant resources, nuclear technology can’t be scaled as easily as the Germans scaled the Haber-Bosch process—dethroning Peru and profiting off of the worlds demand for this technology which simultaneously could feed the world or destroy it at greater scales than ever—however, It CAN be democratized in a way oil reserves in-ground cannot. However, game theory dictates that sacrificing oil infrastructure for nuclear may lead to being outpaced by those who don’t, as such, the U.S. has immense power in determining its creation. This innovation and its deployment globally requires that the U.S either surrender the petro-dollar and the power it affords them, or wrap up the new nuclear energy dominance in a new kind of dollar: the digital dollar: Bitcoin. Unfortunately, the U.S has all the cards to dominate: They hold the global currency (they determine how slow or fast the dollar is mined into existence), they hold access to vast nuclear infrastructure, resources, know-how and supply chains (the new-worlds energy) and the legacy systems energy and infrastructure: oil. As such, they hold the firing gun to signal the global race for Bitcoin and the energy systems that will underwrite it, and in fact, they already have covertly crossed the starting line. “Peru had guano. Germany had ammonium. America has the trifecta: oil to burn, atoms to split, and a digital furnace to turn both into immortality”

In a bitcoin standard world with nuclear and solar powered industry, goods and services and the energy needed to produce them would become abundant, however the currency we access this abundance with would be scarce. As a result our access to this energy would be dependent on the energy we offer society—and the claims on energy we get in return. As such, however many sats you have would dictate what claim you have on this abundant energy. So, in a hyperbitcoinization world, even 1 satoshi could buy you 2 whole meals. When goods and services are no longer scarce, the money we have will be, and will meter our access to this newfound abundance.

The largest element produces the most energy. The largest tree produces the most fruit. But both crack and fall the loudest, as entropy takes over.

Ideally, the FED is like the traffic lights, which regulate the flow and traffic of the cars. The FED, operating in the same way, seeks to regulate the flow of capital—preventing traffic that may arrest the flow of capital or the supposed chaos that comes from no “traffic lights” at all.

Progress and productivity is a seed sowed by the poor and yet its fruits seemingly ripen only for their masters

Stock buybacks are like a tree purchasing its leaves—stopping them from returning to the soil and increasing value—from funds it stole from the microbes which supply it with nutrients, and using these leaves instead to fuel the exponential growth of said tree, continuing the cycle of extraction and growth without reciprocation. Forced to use exponentially more sunlight to “produce the same tree”, companies today are forced to extract from the soil, extract from the animals, extract from the people and extract from the future, just to continue rolling this Sisyphean rock off a cliff, searching for the God of Growth.

Fiat is the God of Growth, a Sisyphean system.

Every financial crisis of capitalism has been met by yet another sacrosanct offering to the God of Growth.

The natural state of the world is deflationary. Ephermeralization—a term coined by Buckminster Fuller—dictates that as technology progresses we do more with less. “We used to have to send a human being on a horse with a message. The man, horse, and food required thousands of pounds of weight to be moved from place to place to transfer that information. Today, we do the same task by moving an electron weighing less than 1/1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000th of an ounce.” The cost of goods falls to the marginal cost of production, which capitalism and its markets forces down to zero eventually at a long enough time scale. Messages no longer cost money, nor do phone calls. At least, they cost minuscule fractions of what this horse carried message did—exemplifying this deflationary quality despite increasing abilities. Ask yourself, why then do prices rise each year? The lion is not forced to grow exponentially more muscle to hunt its prey. The tree’s get on just fine with the same amount of light each season. and in fact do more. What then have we got wrong? : Our money is abundant. You might think that’s a good thing, but not when the money supply outweighs the value present in the world and is used to consolidate real value into the hands of few. see: The Great Depression spurred by farms that couldn’t be payed off—causing dust storms and massive soil degradation—not because we didn’t have the resources, but because we diluted the financial blood of the world so much, and over leveraged our things of real value based on this diluted abstract value, that society could no longer productively pump. We had the resources to save those farms, the banks could have forgiven the loans and saved the environment, but that’d mean changing the game, and letting their abstract balance sheets take a loss—for Humanities gain over capital. And so what did they choose? Let the farms fail, let the debtors suffer, fuck the soil, because they couldn’t pay us. well nor can dust… In this system where money is abundant value is scarce, and the value propositions baked into the world get flipped on their head. We then worship a new god, Capital and sell and debase and destroy the world for it. We kill visible gods for invisible, abstract, paper ones.

As the digital world (software) and its hardware becomes more of the real world, unless we want to have to constantly update code or suffer disastrous hacks, then some kind of cost prohibitive deterrent is needed which punishes someone for encroaching upon our digital “territory”.

A wonderfully sick trick the capitalists sleight-of-handed us with was convincing us to chew on their petroleum waste, rub it into our face and lips, and filter it through our lungs :)

Fiat Fractional Reserve banking is like a tree telling the forest it owns its future productivity, loaning it back to them now, and then taking interest on their labor in the present—stealing real economic productivity with abstractly acquired future-false-money. Of course, one may say that it will be distributed then based on merit, but of course, it never is. So from this, we see how this hypothetical tree would then be able to say to its microbial slaves—those who produce the bulk of its energy and specialized societal “nutrients”—“here, take this energy to fuel your economic activity”—when of course it was always their’s to begin with, but an abstract power was able to use abstract money (claims on energy, not real energy) to bring these future claims on energy into the present—disproportionately condensing it into increasingly unfriendly hands (Cantillon effect). As such, society—and this tree, mostly—may see an uptick in its annual growth. The microbes will be able to “scavenge” for more energy in their local environments than they normally would and as such provide more economic tax-exudates to the Federal Forest. But where does this energy come from? It comes from the future and the value of our money now. You see, like a tree growing with roots it doesn’t have, this new microbial activity is also spurred in the face of lacking nutrients to satisfy this additional growth. The injection of newly future-stolen capital from the forest creates the illusion of the economic environment having changed (having become more productive), when in fact its just been injected with a synthetic fertilizer. A false substitute for the labor of microbes, this synthetic federal fertilizer slowly but surely replaces the labor of microbes in capacity and energy. It disrupts information flows, as microbes that may not be supported by their environment become supported by this synthetic one—to the global environments detriment. Microbes that relate to their environment in deleterious ways may no longer feel the necessary consequences in their local environments, supported now by this subsidized synthetic nutrient. You may also have a kind of runoff, where money seemingly escapes zones of economic activity injected with this fertilizer, disrupts other ones and flows into hands or assets it wasn’t meant to reach. For example, asset prices and home prices massively shot up following Covid despite not actually increasing in efficiency or value—a perverse consequence of “financial runoff”. But where does this synthetic nutrient come from? Because It doesn’t come from no where. Replacing the process of real economic activity and productivity, the process of creating synthetic fertilizers is equally devoid of real environmental value as the creation of money is in society. Slowly but surely, just as we see in inorganic farming, the soils life and its microbes ability to produce their own energy their own fertilizer, gets replaced and dominated by the injection of this false one—resulting in these economic environments literally blowing away in the wind, degrading in the sky, collapsing in the night. Slowly but surely the ability of these microbes to outpace the injection of this false money fails, and ultimately, no amount of synthetic fertilizers can revive it. This is the fate of the fiat system, if we don’t replace it. Eventually this false god will replace all the real ones—and it has already begun. Ex : $21,000 avg home builder profit share. ~ $700,000 avg interest payed to banks on a 30 year mortgage on a $500k home at 6.5% 63% of American can’t cover a $500 emergency. Real wages are down 3.4% despite inflation being up 15% 41% of Americans have medical debt. 1.7 trillion in student debt. 45% of borrowers aren’t reducing their principle. Bottom 50% lose 6.5 days of labor purchasing power yearly to inflation. Top one percent lose less than an hour. The dollar has lost 99.9 percent of its purchasing power. Each dollar of debt, each gram of synthetic fertilizer, corresponds to an exponentially decreasing amount of real economic output or productivity. The engine no longer works.

Ads are meant to act as the colorful fruit—attracting you to its sweetness to spread its seed: It’s a mutual consensual flourishing. But it’s not when the marketed fruit-of-all-possible-colors-and-tastes hides a hideous seed, whose sweetness is devoid of need and feeds a seed that never concedes its lead, ultimately taking more than it seeds.
