One of Bitcoinโ€™s primary purposes is to separate the control of money from the state. But why does that matter? profstonge (npub1xr4โ€ฆf6z3), giacomozucco (npub1au2โ€ฆt53j), and CARLA (npub1hu3โ€ฆh8nh) and walker (npub1cj8โ€ฆrz4u) each give their answers, and emphasize how vital it is for money and state to be separated, if humanity is to flourish, or even ๐˜ด๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ท๐˜ฆ in the long-term.

Below is Giacomo Zuccoโ€™s answer, as written in โ€œ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿญ ๐—ค๐˜‚๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€โ€:

It is important to separate the control of money from the state for the same reason that it's important to separate the control of anything from the state. The modern nation-state is a criminal organization, typically characterized by inefficiency, corruption, and moral bankruptcy. For this reason, it's important to separate the state from its control over defense and firearms, healthcare and medicine, and education and information.

But in particular, it's crucial to separate the state's control over the most significant market of all: money. Money constitutes one-half of every trade that has ever occurred on this planet. The global economy has many sectors that are very important, strategic, and relevant, but no sector can be as important as the sector that is exactly one-half of every single economic transaction in every context, in every age, and in every culture, which is money.

If you corrupt money, you can corrupt any other possible market. If you restore money, you can improve and mitigate problems in most other contexts and markets. So, we should separate the state from literally everything because we should separate organized crime from everything. While we should ostracize organized crime in all forms, it is especially crucial in the case of the most important market: money.
