Bitcoin enables permissionless transactions, but it can’t stop governments from banning you from buying a house or a car with it. Sadly Bitcoin even supoorts governments in doing so.
Therefore, Bitcoin is not freedom from centralized control.
So you can freely make a Bitcoin transaction, but it is useless if you cannot freely use it as consideration in real-life contracts.

Right, in a same way like a car can drive 200 km/h on the highway, except car will not report on you whereas Bitcoin is collecting an evidence in every UTXO.

Most cars can hit 200 km/h, yet most countries set speed limits around 130. Freedom is in the drivetrain 🏎️🏎️🏎️
With Bitcoin, it’s unfortunately even worse, because Bitcoin is like a car that reports on you to the police.
I love Bitcoin, but I’m not blind, as long as Bitcoin has a built-in surveillance support, it will never ever become real money.
Btw. it is not only corporations, thanks to MICA it is basically every business, even one man show, touching Bitcoin

Bitcoin has unique, and I would say absolute, properties, it is permissionless, intangible digital scarcity.
With custody or IOU relationships, you strip the permissionless aspect.

It is called low base effect, if used without context as an argument then it is fallacy.
E.g.
In 2024, the real GDP growth rates for Niger and the United States were:
Niger: +10.3%
United States: +2.8%

No, they don't control it.

For surveillance and spying on own citizens VISA/MC/SEPA works well.
For daily private transactions we have Monero.
For store of value we have Bitcoin.

Agree with Monero as hidden treasure but not sure about Bitcoin's loss against the Monero.
If it were not for last few months, Monero would be all times low against the Bitcoin. https://npub1mg350vuwudmltnkx9t8uat90dt9k7qk85ejzw57vny98mc5k57ysmlr202.blossom.band/cadcdee1464b13943ddc0e32414a17aa2c7767b850fbfdd7b6444bf46c165298.jpg

I see the value of Bitcoin in its intangible permissionless scarcity.
Unfortunately Bitcoin with build-in KYC/AML supportive functions will never become a sound money. But I can imagine using Monero as a cash, and Bitcoin as a permissionless store of value. These properties of Bitcoin could compete with real estate properties being used as store of value.

Communism cannot work. It has been proven both theoretically and empirically, unfortunately, at the cost of hundreds of millions of murdered souls.
I don't even get how you could jump from my thoughts on state violence and aggression against group of free individuals to the conclusion that I somehow believe communists can save the world.

2026-10-06 17:26:20 UTC

I don't trust the government at all, but I just dont have a solid solution for how to defend myself against the aggression of other governments. The problem is that because another government has a monopoly on violence, it has unlimited resources to wage war against me.

What premise is flawed?
I am sorry, I really not understand your question nor your example. Please explain how it relates to my example.
I don't want to fight about particular figures here. I tried to demonstrate that we don't need to feed the government to tell us what is good for us.
If, and only if we need the government, then only for defense against other governments.

Let me give you an example of how privileged we are.
I care about animals. When a cat or a dog needs medical care, I just take them to the vet. Veterinary care is much less regulated here in Czechia. You can get a good vet even after 7pm, and some have 24/7/365 service. When you get there, the place is nice and clean, they smile, they examine the animal, and if necessary, they can do blood tests, an ultrasound, and an RTG during the same visit. When you leave, you have pretty much complete test results, a diagnosis, and a treatment plan. If you need an MRI, you can get it in one to four days. The price is reasonable, and you can pay in cash or by card.
Compare it with my 80yrs old friend, who had to wait three months for an MRI, while an ultrasound took two weeks, same as RTG. Blood tests take two to four days. She had to wait three months for an appointment for a specialist examination, and then it was canceled two days before the appointment with no explanation. Now she has to wait another three months. All of this is almost "free", if you subtract wasted life or if you survive the queue. Actually, in the majority of hospitals, you cannot pay for care in cash or pay to skip the queue. The only solution is to know people who know whom to bribe.

Profit isn't a bad thing 😁
I read that there is less and less providers, sounds like there is less competitors, I assume that the cause is the big buying small and there are no new providers starting their business.
Why do you think people does not start new businesses in health care?

2026-10-06 11:02:12 UTC

- reply

This explains a bit why we express different views.
My definition of profit is a delta between the purchase cost and the realized price.
Also I define corruption differently, corruption for me is abuse of delegated power in benefit of the corrupter or subjects connected to the corrupter.
A contrario, misusing one's own funds or resources is not corruption, rather, I simply call it a personal transaction or a trade if consensual between two or more subjects.

Taxes cannot provide services at a lower cost than the free market. Let me illustrate this with a simple example. Please note that this is just a basic math illustration and does not account for opportunity costs or the theory of subjective value, but it works well as a straightforward figure.
Imagine you are the government. You tax two people, taking $1 from each, giving you a total of $2.
Because you do not work for free, you take 50 cents of each dollar collected as your administrative wage.
You then go to the market to purchase a service, leaving you with $1 to provide that service for your two citizens.
As a result, you can only afford a service valued at 50 cents per person.
In a world without you as the government, those same two individuals would each have their full $1 to buy the exact same service independently.

Housing is a choice, in both the USA and the EU. You can live in a mobile home, under a bridge, or in a million dollar mansion, it is entirely up to the individual.
I would agree that there is an illusion regarding what you actually get from the government. It is a common belief that EU countries have "free" healthcare and the US does not. Nominally, it looks like that. However, in the EU, even if you have money, you can end up dying in a queue for a "free" procedure, whereas in the US you can buy it immediately if you have the funds.
I don't fully endorse either system. I agree that US healthcare costs is high, but we shall ask is why it is so expensive. My suspicion points to overly complicated regulations, which drag expensive lawyers and compliance costs into the equation, as well as the US bearing the high burden of pharmaceutical development that the EU then consumes as a free rider.

Taxes corrupt.
Taxes help mainly the richest people.
I am not privileged, I am a tax slave.
Healthcare, education, insurance, food, and other services could easily be paid directly by individuals, without the government taking its cut to bribe bureaucrats or serve shady corporate decision-makers.
In a world without taxes, human interaction would be based entirely on voluntary trade.
The only area I am unsure could function without state violence is defense against other violent states.

We need to stop being free riders in NATO and be prepared to defend Europe against russian aggression, and not only depend on the USA, I understand why Trump is pissed off the EU, we collaborated with Russians and now we are fucked. Lucky that Ukrainians are heros and not cowards like Schroeder, Macron, Merkel, or Scholz, I would not call Trump notfriend, he is just frustrated from the fucking EU commies.

I am from Czech and can confirm that taxes for average employee is approx 60%
In detail it is approx 42% income tax. Then there is approx 21% on almost everything, and consumer tax which differs based on type of goods.
Significant tax is on petrol, 1 Galon cost approx 8.2 USD (incl. tax) the combined (consumer and vat) tax is 45.3%
Regarding food, here in Czech we eat shit 😟 , even we can afford to buy expensive food. Based on my experience, you can get high quality food in US, but it is expensive, however at least you can buy it.
