It’s the same old movie playing again. Governments think they can engineer prosperity from the top down, whether it’s 19th-century railroads or modern U.S. industrial policy. Central planning creates distortions, misallocates capital, and eventually collapses under its own weight.
Real progress has always come from open markets, voluntary coordination, and individuals solving real problems, not bureaucrats picking winners.
That’s exactly why #Bitcoin matters. It removes the political layer from economic coordination. It exposes the cost of bad policy. It rewards efficiency, transparency, and long-term thinking instead of short-term political incentives.
If anything, these renewed attempts at centralized control only highlight how urgently we need decentralized, permissionless systems. The future gets built by people operating on a sound economic foundation, not by politicians trying to steer complex systems they barely understand.
