Distant Drains: The High Cost of Sustaining Armies Abroad Plunges People into Economic Despair Sun Tzu said, "Poverty of the State exchequer causes an army to be maintained by contributions from a distance. Contributing to maintain an army at a distance causes the people to be impoverished." With hundreds of military bases, many overseas, would you say the United States "maintains an army at a distance" with fiat currency? The financial toll of funding wars can significantly impact citizens, leading to increased poverty. Governments often allocate vast resources to military endeavors, diverting funds from social programs, education, and healthcare. War-related inflation can erode the purchasing power of citizens, affecting their daily lives. Moreover, the economic aftermath of conflict, coupled with the burden of servicing war-related debts, places strain on national economies. As citizens bear the brunt of reduced public services and economic challenges, the cycle perpetuates, illustrating the intricate connection between wartime spending, economic hardship, and the well-being of a nation's populace. #suntzu #fiat #government #war #artofwar #fiatcurrency #gold #silver #bitcoin #unitedstates #inflation

Wisdom in Warfare: Insight into the Profitable Path Comes to Those Acquainted with the Evils of War Sun Tzu said, "It is only one who is thoroughly acquainted with the evils of war that can thoroughly understand the profitable way of carrying it on." Does the United States understand "the profitable way" of carrying on war? War, tragically, can be a profitable endeavor for some. The military-industrial complex thrives on conflict, with the arms industry reaping substantial gains. Companies supplying weapons, technology, and logistics often see surges in profits during times of war. Additionally, war-driven reconstruction efforts offer lucrative opportunities for businesses. However, this profitability comes at the cost of human lives and geopolitical stability, raising ethical concerns about the intertwining of financial gain with the tragedy of armed conflict. #suntzu #fiat #government #war #artofwar #fiatcurrency #gold #silver #bitcoin #unitedstates

No Nation Prospers from Prolonged Warfare - A Sobering Truth Revealed Through History's Harsh Lessons Sun Tzu said, "There is no instance of a country having benefited from prolonged warfare." The United States strategically wields its fiat currency to assert dominance globally. Through economic leverage and financial influence, the U.S. can shape international policies, influence trade dynamics, and exert control over other nations. The dollar's status as the world's primary reserve currency empowers the U.S., allowing it to navigate geopolitical landscapes and project influence, illustrating the intricate relationship between monetary power and global dominance. If Sun Tzu were here today, and observed the United States' perpetual warfare, what would he think? #suntzu #fiat #government #war #artofwar #fiatcurrency #gold #silver #bitcoin #unitedstates

Perpetual War Profits: The Dark Nexus of Power and Wealth Fuels America's Dominance on the Global Stage "Sun Tzu said: In the operations of war, where there are in the field a thousand swift chariots, as many heavy chariots, and a hundred thousand mail-clad soldiers, with provisions enough to carry them a thousand li, the expenditure at home and at the front, including entertainment of guests, small items such as glue and paint, and sums spent on chariots and armor, will reach the total of a thousand ounces of silver per day. Such is the cost of raising an army of 100,000 men." The United States' ability to sustain perpetual war is rooted in its unique position as the issuer of the world's primary reserve currency. The power to print dollars grants the U.S. an advantage, allowing it to fund military endeavors by essentially creating currency. However, this practice comes with economic complexities, such as inflation risks and global consequences. Would Sun Tzu have thought about war differently if he had access to a currency printer? #suntzu #fiat #government #war #artofwar #fiatcurrency #gold #silver #bitcoin #unitedstates

Empowering the Individual: Unveiling the Path to Freedom Here is a section of an article I submitted to 2600 Magazine, a hacker publication, that censored parts of my writing. To read the complete uncensored article, head over to https://deltacharlie.tech/ If you value the individual, and hold to the principle of never infringing on anyone else’s natural rights, you are not an evil person. Ayn Rand valued the mind, reason and reaching your full potential as an individual. The hacker community is brilliant and passionate, but focuses on trendy issues that get fed to them by the mainstream media. Stop doing this! It is only distracting you from what is really going on, which is the erosion of the individual as a sovereign entity. Groups of people gain political power at the expense of other groups of people, which is unjust. All the while the ever expanding American government continues to tax us, devalue the currency and our labor, control more of the Earth and allow you to do less and less each year in the name of “fairness” and “equality” and “inclusion.” If you educate yourself on economics, real money, read the independent media and the Constitution, you will clearly see the trend the world is going and be able to protect yourself and your mind. I feel the big picture topics I’ve presented here outweigh most of the trending topics discussed today both on importance and scale. These issues affect everyone in a negative way no matter your gender, skin color or residence. If we point our energy towards the real causes of these problems, power can be transferred back to the people where it belongs, and taken away from the rulers where it currently is.

Betrayed by Tech: The Startling Reality of Surveillance, Manipulation, and Your Privacy Here is a section of an article I submitted to 2600 Magazine, a hacker publication, that censored parts of my writing. To read the complete uncensored article, head over to https://deltacharlie.tech/ We all love technology. One interesting thing about technology is that it’s become weaponized. When Edward Snowden revealed the surveillance programs the US used against everyone, it really got people thinking. What’s frustrating to me is years later, the average person knows they are being surveilled, and simply doesn’t care. “That’s the world we live in.” I believe privacy is a right we are born with, not a privilege granted to us by a government or some other entity. But not only are governments the ones who are tracking us through our devices, big companies are as well...and are sharing all that data with other companies and governments. My point is, with every advancement in technology, people are adopting it in a dopamine fueled reaction to convenience and better quality of life. As technology gets better, it collects more and more personal and physical data about you. That data gets compiled and profiles are created and sold to data companies like Cambridge Analytica. This is the ammunition governments use to influence your decisions, thoughts and behavior. This agenda is pushed through the mainstream media and social media networks who cooperate with government. This makes people vote, get emotional, buy products, etc. Unless you properly secure your phone with something like GrapheneOS, and use Linux at home instead of Mac or Windows, you are literally a lab rat being watched and experimented on. I think the EFF article every issue is phenomenal and I wish more hackers would get behind privacy rights, personal freedom and liberty rather than gender identity, pronoun clarification, race relations and expensive social programs. The reason I say that is because personal freedom and liberty value the individual, rather than groups of people. Comedian George Carlin values the individual above all else, and despises groups of people because groups want to control your language and that’s how you control thought.

Taking Control of Your Financial Freedom: Embracing Alternative Currencies like Bitcoin Here is a section of an article I submitted to 2600 Magazine, a hacker publication, that censored parts of my writing. To read the complete uncensored article, head over to https://deltacharlie.tech/ Remember, government does not create money, the people and free markets chose gold and silver because they were, and arguably still are, the best money. Government makes laws, and central banks create fiat currency. If you watch Hidden Secrets of Money, you’ll see that the gold standard system restricted what government could do. A government can’t go to war on a fixed money supply like gold. So, it has to convince the citizens to want war, and it uses the media for this. Then, the government borrows from the Fed, increases our taxes, removes our freedom, and more people die. On a fixed currency supply, government is restrained. On a fiat currency supply, endless currency can be printed to finance wars forever, which is what Dwight Eisenhower warned about. This manifested itself in Richard Nixon decoupling gold from the dollar, essentially defaulting on our debts as a country. This is one of the prominent arguments for Bitcoin, because it is a fixed supply. If you disagree with what the government does, don’t participate in the fiat system, and use alternative money like BTC. Yes, it’s volatile, but that volatility shows you how ineffective a fiat system is. It’s not that the “price goes up,” it’s that the purchasing power of the USD goes down, as it’s done for 100 years. Every single fiat currency in history has gone to zero. Every one of them. This is a 100% failure rate. If you only think of Bitcoin in terms of dollar price, you are only seeing, pun intended, one side of the coin.

Young Hackers' Quest for Social Justice: How Questioning the System Leads to Opting Out Here is a section of an article I submitted to 2600 Magazine, a hacker publication, that censored parts of my writing. To read the complete uncensored article, head over to https://deltacharlie.tech/ Younger hackers want to use their bright minds to fight for social justice. When they grow up, and take the typical route expected of them from American culture, they lose that passion to take action towards something they believe in. The reason is because American culture is designed to keep people from thinking. The government wants obedient working taxpayers because it owes the Federal Reserve (a privately owned bank) trillions of dollars. But if you take the time as an adult to question everything you’ve ever known, you’ll understand how corrupt the system is and simply opt out. I believe opting out is a much more productive and peaceful way to protest against a corrupt system. For those that have read Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand, you’ll remember that all the intelligent men in the country opted out of working for the corrupt government, and the government fell apart. Protest all you want, you still have to go to work and have 20-40% of your dollars taken out right off the top. Those dollars never go to paying anything except interest on top of interest, not schools, roads, bridges, etc. I don’t advocate tax fraud, but am opposed to direct taxes per the Constitution. In fact, direct taxes were illegal, and we had to amend the Constitution to tax the citizens and create the Federal Reserve. This is why Woodrow Wilson is hated by so many people.

War, Politics, and Economics: A Fresh Perspective on History Here is a section of an article I submitted to 2600 Magazine, a hacker publication, that censored parts of my writing. To read the complete uncensored article, head over to https://deltacharlie.tech/ “Never let a crisis go to waste!” is the expression of politicians. The purpose of this is to exploit your human nature, and have you give up more of your personal decision making power to the government. The government promises to make things right, by borrowing more currency from the Fed, to give you “free” stuff that you pay for with higher taxes and inflation, all to get voted into office again, so the cycle can continue. If you actually study history, you’ll see every war and conflict is intimately tied to economic history. You’ll also discover the tactics government has used to influence the American people to go along with perpetual war, and compare that to the tactics used today. The best reference of this is The Creature from Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin. This is why I personally have no political affiliation, and don’t complain about government, I simply opt out. Every president in my lifetime, and yours, has devalued the currency by increasing taxes or inflating the currency, started wars, taken away freedoms by force or surveillance, or a combination of all these. Now that I think about it...if there is one politician I have respect for, it’s Ron Paul. Social causes are started by exploiting human nature, then creating different language to change the pattern of thought. Government has always wanted to control thought by controlling language as George Carlin spoke about many times. If you read the WEF, they are changing the language of Socialism and Fascism to the “public/private partnership.” The people let government change the definitions of things whenever they want, giving the government more control of our mind. Two recent examples of this are inflation and the Consumer Price Index, or CPI. Inflation is literally an expansion of the currency supply. But we let the government and media change this definition to mean rising prices, which are a result of inflation, not inflation itself. This is so government can blame inflation (rising prices) on everyone and everything else. Inflation is caused when the government borrows currency from the Federal Reserve, which then creates new currency and injects it into the economy by lending it to the Treasury, banks and eventually citizens. This expansion of the currency supply devalues every dollar in existence, which makes consumer prices go up. For a visual, see Hidden Secrets of Money Episode 4 by Mike Maloney. So the government and the Fed created inflation, but the high prices are necessary because it costs more dollars to buy the same stuff, as you’ve seen in the grocery stores. But government will have you believe businesses raise prices because of greed, rather than the government borrowing more money to “stimulate” the economy.

Truth About Money: A Thought-Provoking Perspective Here is a section of an article I submitted to 2600 Magazine, a hacker publication, that censored parts of my writing. To read the complete uncensored article, head over to https://deltacharlie.tech/ I feel one of the biggest downfalls of our country, and the world, through the US dollar, is our dishonest monetary system. Fiat currency has a 100% failure rate and there is no reason to think the dollar will not fail, as thousands of currencies have done. In Hidden Secrets of Money, Mike Maloney defines money as having 6 characteristics. The main one being a store of value over very long periods of time. Our fiat currency has lost over 97% of it’s purchasing power over the last 100 years or so. So why all the money talk? Money is one of those things, like technology, that is a measurement of the progress of society. If you study monetary history, you’ll understand clearly the direction the country is going, and the causes for all the ridiculous social issues that are created to distract us from the real truth. Money is not evil, money is a tool. Enslavement is evil. Money is a tool for progress and prosperity while fiat currency is a tool for enslavement and evil. The worst enslavement is when the person thinks they’re free. Our money used to be honest, giving us freedom. Very few social crybabies study money. Furthermore, we enslave the rest of the world through the USD. Our government borrows from the Fed(a privately owned bank), which prints dollars (digital and paper) and we buy real goods and services from other countries that produce them. We also have to pay higher taxes through direct tax and inflation. So what’s the bigger injustice: gender identity for kids, or how our government has enslaved the world through military force and fiat currency? The Fed recently launched a new form of surveillance called the Central Bank Digital Currency so it can micromanage the economy even further and possibly implement a social credit score and carbon credit score like China and the World Economic Forum promote. See George Gammon for simple explanations.

Technology vs. Politics - A Reader's Perspective for a Hacker Magazine Here is a section of an article I submitted to 2600 Magazine, a hacker publication, that censored parts of my writing. To read the complete uncensored article, head over to https://deltacharlie.tech/ I’d first like to address volume 39 number 3, where Emmanuel mentions Rule of Law. Firstly, The political writings of 2600 in the last few years are just out of control, and many readers have sent letters about it. I’ve always felt a hacker magazine should present information about technology and hacking and leave the politics out of it. This magazine has recently leaned towards the politically correct, woke, mainstream narrative type of musings written by Emmanuel Goldstein. I know hacking and politics overlap. But, if I want to mix politics and hacking, I’d go on YouTube and watch an Anonymous video. The printed pages of this magazine used to be really good for us for us g33ks to explore technology without all the political nonsense. You’ve taken the Internet trolls and given them printed pages. I don’t need a hacker magazine telling me not to come to a meeting unless I’m vaccinated. How about leaving that conversation between doctors and patients? With all the COVID-19 drama, this magazine lined right up with the mainstream narrative. If you wanted to stay out of all that, and keep with the hacker spirit of independent thinking and decision making. You could have printed “Hey everyone, the 2600 meeting page moved online only. Decide and think among yourselves. We’ll resume printing that page when we’re ready.” Instead, it was, “OK, everyone, the government and media say THIS, so we will print that in our magazine too and promote it too.” Without going on a tangent, I’m not anti vaccination. I’m anti government mandate because the government is not my doctor. I’ll leave it at that. Emmanuel writes, “every time we’ve spoken out on some issue, raised awareness of an injustice, or questioned assumptions, we’ve never given up on the system itself, even when that system was proving to be corrupt or broken.” It’s broken. The federal government is too big, which is what the founding fathers warned us about. The individual states and individual people are losing sovereignty with every crisis they create and put on TV. I know you have to keep selling magazines, so you have to keep up on the “latest” trending topics, but why not address the causes of these issues like the psychopaths in the WEF, the enslavement of the world through the fiat dollar, or the brainwashing of children.

Unlocking the Power of Intellectual Flexibility: Embrace the Challenge of Holding Opposing Views Here is a section of an article I submitted to 2600 Magazine, a hacker publication, that censored parts of my writing. To read the complete uncensored article, head over to https://deltacharlie.tech/ It’s been said that one mark of intelligence is to hold two opposing views in your mind at the same time. Said another way, don’t take a strong stance on something until you can argue against it. That’s right...against it. This means if you feel strongly about say...a vegan diet, you should be able to argue against a vegan diet as effectively as you argue against a carnivore diet. This ensures you objectively viewed the information and made the most informed choice you can make. If you still can’t decide, then don’t hold strong convictions. The most dangerous people in this world are those who hold the strongest convictions, with no desire to hear another view. So proceed with an open mind, and temporarily suspend your convictions. What I do want is to encourage you to challenge yourself, debate with your closest friends and family, and take action to research the following topics as extensively as I have. I’ve spent thousands of hours over years forming my own strong opinions, and will do my best to present things in a way I wish they were presented to me. I’ll also be leaving plenty of references for actionable advice to learn the concepts I’m writing about...things I wish were taught in school, or were taught to me by people I thought I looked up to. I’m not trying to change the world...but I might change the person who changes the world. I don’t expect hackers to become economists or financial experts. What I hope for is highly intelligent, thinking hackers to restrain strong convictions until they’ve really explored something down to the nitty gritty. You wouldn’t run software until you’ve verified the checksum. Use the same thought process on the OS of your mind, and don’t allow any software to run without verifying the motive of the person or entity who created the software they’re trying to install in your mind.
