Just usual bollocks from people who claim to want a fairer society. They do, as long as their share is fairer than anyone else's....and they still get to control it.
There is scant little difference between this brave new world of crypto and the traditional markets it wants to replace. Its no more than an attempt at a transfer of power rather than a removal of power.
Well, its emplacing us within a technocracy. Which is at least better than a corporatocracy.
In what way is it better ? I personally think its infinitely worse. Information and data is the most powerful commodity on earth. Why do I wish to be governed by people who can control this data on a whim using technology I could never hope to understand? IQ should not be a measure of power and hence, control.
Until someone comes up with a more viable and sharing alternative, I'll run with the 'better the devil I know' adage.
Corporations are agnostic toward moralism to a point of deprecation of society. Basically its no different than a technocracy but it lacks any of the potentially good aspects a technocracy can provide. A technocracy will tend to follow some kind of moral code on some kind of fundamental level. While a corporatocracy has zero issue with turning your dad into soylent green to increase profits by 1%.
There is nothing we can do about this. Its always going to be the fundamental rudiment of power. Those who are smarter will always be more powerful than those who are not.
Agree,, to begin with we must realize that the "democracy" dream has failed and has evolved into a "Oligarchy". I correct this, the first step is getting rid of the "Bought out" corporate representatives in Congress and replace them with currently "Unbought"reps. Then to realize that the "Founding Fathers" never mentioned "Democracy in either the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution. They were very clear that this was to be a "Republic" which would be led under the "Rule of Law" not purely by "Majority Rule"...
The first step is to look at such issues in a global context and remember there are more countries on this planet than the US.
Specific to your reply, Id wonder why you base all your US history from the point of your Founding fathers onwards ? The world is much older than that.
Because when I speak about things to do with American Citizens I try giving the "History" required for that instance. If I were an expert in, say,, India(?) I would generally speak about Gandhi and the colonialism of Great Britain, but I am not, so I only try influencing my own citizenry... United States was born, not in 1776, but rather 1765 when the Declaration of Independence was first written.
