California hates oil, gas, and also nuclear (though not talked about in this article). Running a modern society without oil, gas, and nuclear is like trying to be an Olympic athlete eating only lettuce. Or flying a jet liner with rubber band powered propellers. I'm very tired of this collectivist moralizing. Provide a viable solution through the market that beats these, or shut the fuck up.

90% of what I see here is Nostr navel gazing. I get it, I guess. But it's kinda boring

Hey all, starting fresh here on Nostr. I have an account on X that I'm choosing to keep anonymous for now. Glad to be here with all you psychos

Money is a quantification of human value, human time, and human energy. As such, money has always been virtual, and always scarce. Through history humans have used physical items as proxies for money. Abundant physical items are poor proxies. Eventually humans invented a virtual proxy of money: fiat. But this proxy is not scarce. #Bitcoin is the most perfect representation of money. For the first time in human history, we now have a proxy for money that is also virtual and absolutely scarce.
