"When you actually look at the system that's being built, which is what my book and research does, it really doesn't decentralize anything. What it's actually doing ultimately, with the stablecoin system paired up with bitcoin, is...it will satisfy that primordial urge of neutering all central banks, but unfortunately it leaves one. And that one is the Federal Reserve.

And so when you create digital dollars that there is no way to stop capital flight and people taking money out of your country because they can just use a smartphone and get a wallet and get their money into dollars and then send it wherever they want with a smartphone,
the central bank of XYZ really loses all of its ability to keep money, keep its citizens in its currency.

And so the end result of this system is the greatest centralization of monetary policy in history, where we actually have a global financial system that will be run by the Fed governors." Mark Goodwin of ThePapercutMagazine.com and UnlimitedHangout.com 💰

The Religion of Sciencism - The Basics in 2 Minutes

For the first time in 54 years, the world’s two major nuclear-weapons powers, Russia and the United States, will not be bound by any arms-control treaties and so will be legally free to cram their nuclear arsenals with as many new warheads as they wish — a step both sides appear poised to take.

It’s hard to imagine today, but 50 years ago, at the height of the Cold War, the U.S. and Russia (then the Soviet Union) jointly possessed 47,000 nuclear warheads.

But as public fears of nuclear annihilation increased, especially after the near-death experience of the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, the leaders of those two countries negotiated a series of binding agreements intended to downsize their arsenals and reduce the risk of Armageddon.
