It’s “death by a thousand cuts.”
The system didn’t rob you overnight - they bleed you dry slowly by stealing your time, energy, and money.
In the beginning, life was simple: you worked to create value.
You grew crops, built tools, made clothes - and exchanged them through barter.
But bartering was clunky - not everyone wanted to swap corn for a chicken.
So humans invented money to convey value:
- In the UK, bales of hay (12 bales = 1 shekel)
- In Japan, bowls of rice
- In other places, salt, beads, shells
Money was just a technology to store and exchange your energy (sound familiar @saylor) 0 reply
