So the guy on the left is a political prisoner in the US who is currently doing two life sentences for non-violent "crimes" that only provided value to people in the form of free markets. I was never a huge advocate for free markets, but I now understand that markets--and particularly free markets--are the only way value is created that is consistent with Rights (Natural Rights; or Natural Law).
I actually used to hate money. I saw it as this scourge upon the face of the Earth. I now understand it for what it is: just another form of energy; and specifically a form of energy that comes from creating value through networking with people. Money is--not necessarily evil.
I'm now of the mind that if honest, ethical people don't get involved in creating value through the markets, it seems that ultimately the only other outcome will come in the form of centrally planned communist systems run by sociopaths. I can't exactly articulate yet why this is the case, but I still believe it to be true.
It's up to us to take this world back, right?
I think that it's really up to smart, creative entrepreneurs to create value for people because they actually want to create something valuable in the world, so let's build something--together.
