So I grew up in & now moved back to what was once the poorest county in my state.
The town is in the poor end of the county and for years has been neglected by both county government & local town council who is composed of people that moved here.
The local community has started a FB page to share idea, news events etc. Every so often the topic of a laundromat or other business opening picks up steam. Now the problem with that is there is ZERO wastewater infrastructure & public works is 1 man who drives around looking at water meters. (Can’t even pay your water bill online btw check or mail in is the only option)
I see a prime opportunity to push the idea of how local government should provide services with the surplus of 1-2 million they keep every year.
Instead of continuing the cycle of woe is us we’re poor and have nothing to do but drugs, I’m trying to figure out ways to build up the town with support.
PS. This is what happens when a community becomes full of citizens who are 80-100% dependent on government aid/welfare & have completely given up on pursuing education for their children.
I have heard and I quote “Why you even trying? You were born here poor with nothing & you’re gonna die here the same way. Stop wasting your time”
Anyone out in #libertarian or #bitcoin #plebchain have any thoughts or advice?

Maybe controversial maybe not but as someone who believes in being prepared I think it is a smart idea for people to stack #fiat as well.
We are all waiting for the utopia of a #bitcoinstandard & the glory that it will be. Until then we still have to survive in the current regime. Plus if you save cash you don’t have to sell your bitcoin

So a few years ago I’d agree with this timeline, however as more books & education content is created these thought milestones are attained in 1/10th the time.
It’s almost like exponential growth…

Knowing that reservations are sovereign nations in the USA, I wonder if any tribes have considered moving towards a #bitcoinstandard to help improve their economies & maintain the power of their treasuries

So in a world on a #bitcoin standard can you imagine someone being paid 15 sats/hour for wages.
Long way from anywhere near that but the idea of it blew my mind

Maybe a #controversial opinion but I enjoy still having some #altcoins
Gambling is an enjoyable vice & if done responsibly there’s no problem.
I still save in #sats & add more #bitcoin on a regular basis but I also haven’t liquidated my alts because I enjoy the game.
That being said remember not to gamble with money you can’t afford to lose.
