@snowblue75 @KnowledgeArchiv You should give Crime and Punishment a read if you haven't already. Dostoyvesky does a great job trying to answer that question.

Corporation: "We made $4B but spent $3.9B so we only owe taxes on $100M."
Government: "Totally reasonable."

You: "I made $60K but spent $58K on survival."
Government: "You owe taxes on $60K."
You: "That's not—"
Government: "File by May 15."

@0xsero Every app (trading, social media, gaming, etc) is made to be as addicting as possible. With crypto the accounting makes it very clear how deep in the green or red you are, whereas social media the currency is your time/attention but the accounting is pretty opaque.

@fede_intern This is common place in the west, school administrators who never taught, police commissioners (NYC) who have never protected people, hospital board members who've never provided care.

@fede_intern Theodore Roszak wrote about how the technocracy would be comprised of information managers (experts) who dictate to society rather than engineers, scientists, doctors, etc. Its wild how correct he was in this sense.
