I don't like to generalize with wings, business, states, countries, people. Like I mentioned in a previous post, I consider generalities to exist due to and bring about more stupidity.
If somebody considers he knows everything about a subject he will never be able to learn anything about it, leave alone to influence it himself.
When Socrates said he knew nothing he didn't advocate being ignorant nor stupid. The more we get fixed ideas how things are like the less we can influence and learn more about those things. It gets even worse when what we consider we know becomes very general.
Take bitcoin as an example; you know those folks who are convinced it is doomed to fail. Too bad they'll never be able to use it to their advantage either. I would assume some have propagated it's doom on purpose; so as to defend their masters, and help them retain national currency's dominion. From that point on, others that have been indocrinated into carrying the mentality that 'what is established is also legit' parrot what they hear.
I'm going to tell you what I've learnt through experience: No general subject is inherently right nor wrong. You will find honest and dishonest folks in both wings. You will find them involved with science or religion or both. You will find them in sects, states, business, this or that.
It is a misconception that power and corruption go together, for actual power is not suppression. Suppression is the enforcement and inhibition of other's power. The corrupt infiltrate and seek to control in that fashion anything they think will grant them power. And thus, also the most powerful countries become magnets for them, which -in turn- leads to their demise.
Right now most countries have so many laws one would need to spend decades to study. Not even politicians themselves could know them all. So one day a politician decides to change or to delete one of them, and most of the press goes nuts. Most of that press only likes it when new laws are made; because people are bad bad bad and if left free they do bad things. So we need limits limits limits to makes us behave --so many limits we can't even know them all.
A way to bring that about is to turn one against the other, to cultivate hate and distrust, to make the half seek to force or hinder the other half, and to seek the patronage of the corrupt.
So do yourselves a favor and don't play their game. Not all persons involved with some subject are against you; although some would love you to think so. I bet even some politicians will start supporting cryptocurrencies if they survive and grow. They're not all bad. They are mostly oblivious. They sit in their office and read from the press and get secret briefings from those mysterious dudes... and then they think they know something. But hey, that's most people get to think they know something too. When did anybody ask anyone what he wants?
Right now, whether right or left, the legal system is rigged to assist the creation of monopolies. Don't believe the BS some propagate. Believe what actually happens. What 'free market'? Unless you're allowed to sell your bananas next to a grocery store and 'steal' it's customers, don't ever believe that again. And don't think those who demand licenses and fees from the poor before they even start making money care for them either --those hypocrites that send people to work for others for peanuts and then put them to protest and cry in random directions.
But we don't need to fight anything. What we need is a workable alternative that will help the majority. Most people want that; they want to be well off. It's just that they've been convinced that liars will do it for them, and they've been let down.
