    If this continues, people might cotton on to the fact that money has no intrinsic meaning any more. I can't wait.

        We are. Most people don't think about it. Society conditions people to not think about it.

          It's really weird. Yesterday I was talking with a friend who is generally on board with all my views on economy, but when I said that they should have closed down the economy and froze rent for COVID, they said that's unrealistic because money still had to be generated. I told them that money is fake and the economy is built on speculation anyway, but they kept insisting that they understood what I was saying yet still thought it would be impossible to suspend the economy. :bruh: if money is fake what could possibly stop you from just giving everyone a fat check monthly? They already agree that it's all made up.
