@BradleyKellard He’s ignoring the thousands of people who worked at Amazon and investors who took risk that helped create that wealth. Markets are pretty efficient his 200B probably corresponds to the actual amount of wealth he created and he got compensated for it.
@chamath Better wording would be:
“Bitcoin is economically fungible in most markets, but its transaction history can matter in regulated environments.”
@RepThomasMassie There a major problems. We need: proportional multi-party voting, less lopsided Senate, 18-yr SCOTUS terms, easier amendments, explicit rules for agencies. Keep federalism & free speech. Caveat: constitutions work via legitimacy, not optimality—clean sheets usually fail.
