How Bitcoin Defunds War From Matthew Kratter's Bitcoin University > In this video, I discuss how a Bitcoin standard could help to defund unnecessary wars by making plain the true cost of war to voters, rather than hiding the costs behind money printing. > On a Bitcoin standard, governments would need to accumulate large amounts of BTC to pay for wars; and central banks would need to accumulate large amounts of BTC to buy government bonds. > And because Bitcoin is so difficult to confiscate, governments would need to listen more closely to their voters' demands and make a persuasive case for when war was necessary. > If you ask Americans whether they prefer spending on domestic items like upgrading infrastructure, or forever wars in far-flung locations that serve mostly to enrich the military industrial complex-- > You can be pretty sure that they will almost always choose the former over the latter. originally posted at

Media supplies people with an internal dialogue to deal with changing positions From Darkhorse Podcast This is a very interesting little conversation about how the corporate press's propaganda works. You have people wanting to believe something, but they can't come up with an argument for it, so the media gives them an argument that they know others will also hold. It doesn't really matter if the argument doesn't make sense, because they aren't going to have to defend it. The media is solving a coordination problem for people seeking out confirmation bias. originally posted at
