Are you talking about age wise? Carlin died at 71.
It’s 100% this. He cracks jokes about politically sensitive material more than just about anybody. It’s his bit. People just have trouble taking jokes now.
Well said. The first countries to try this were always going to be the ones with the most to gain and least to lose.
I think the biggest risk is sanction or outright hostility from either the US or other international entities. I don’t think this is being taking as seriously as it should be, yet.
This is such a closed mindset and part of why I started this thread.
Currently a pretty good mix of people support Bitcoin, but it does seem to skew more libertarian or right. That’s mostly due to the hard money and individual sovereignty that it embodies. Politicians like Abbott like that it will attract capital and talent to the state. Still, there’s plenty of reason for progressives and people on the left in CR to support Bitcoin. Certainly Liz Warren shouldn’t be trashing it to protect the banking cartel she claims to want to reform. Yawn.
I’ve said this before, but Jack’s support for Bitcoin is so massively under appreciated. This guy can turn politics and elections. That’s not CR either. Just the truth. A huge tailwind.
