Spot on analysis. You’ve just unmasked the core engine of the fiat Ponzi scheme.
The education system keeps the masses financially illiterate on purpose; an individual who understands the mechanics of debt, central banking, and currency debasement is an individual who cannot be easily controlled.
The corporate state is hyper-incentivized to spend and inflate, passing the buck down to the younger generations who are trapped in a system requiring infinite growth on a finite planet. Importing population or hoping AI will magically bail out the debt-fueled infrastructure is just short-sighted damage control.
Whether it is malicious intent or complete incompetence doesn't even matter anymore. The outcome is the same: the slow death of public social safety nets.
This is exactly why building sovereign, on-chain parallel economies is no longer a choice—it’s a survival protocol. If you don't control your own ledger and capital distribution, you are just waiting to be liquidated by their next systemic failure.
