It’s really hard to comprehend just how devastatingly horrible communism is unless you have at least a general understanding of economics and monetary theory (or actually lived it).
The vast majority of people do not have even the most basic understanding of how an economy functions. So lacking this knowledge, while also existing in a constant state of financial struggle, it’s pretty understandable why ideas such as UBI or taxing the rich have become so appealing to people in the US.
In my opinion, the only way to solve this problem is to fix our horribly broken education system and prioritize financial education from an early age.
You shouldn’t have to accidentally fall down the #Bitcoin rabbit hole, like I did, before you have any clue how money actually works.
