Money Explained
==============
What is Wealth? The Earth, water, air, fruit, and all the things on Earth. Visualize Wealth as a disk 🌎
What is Money? It's the allocation of wealth, per person. Visualize Money as a pie chart overlaid on 🌎
How much money you have is represented by a sector, your slice 🍕of the big 🥧
What does the Money chart look like? Trillionaires and Billionaires have huge slices, you and I have thin slices. And the poor, saddled with debt, are not even on this chart, because a pie chart cannot represent negative numbers.
The Money system is broken.
What is Inflation? It's when the Fed can print more money arbitrarily, inflate their own slice, and squeeze down everyone else's purchasing power.
Fiat money is broken. It amounts to the Banker in a game of Monopoly, giving themselves an unfair advantage. It's illegal self-dealing.
Nobody ever earned a trillion dollars, or even a billion. They stole the fruit of other people's labor, then used that money to hide the theft, whitewash the crime with media, and gaslight people into believing that they are millions of times smarter / more talented / hard-working than the masses, and somehow deserve to eat millions of meals everyday to feed their precious, indispensable genius 🧠 brains.
