Not at all I've no faith in any of the scams out there right now. But concentrating all of that power into banks under the control of our governments will lead to even worse outcomes. Hopefully some worthy alternatives will arise at some point.

    Power is distributed by implementing and enforcing effective regulation, not by removing it.

    We will see how it plays out, obviously the US isn't going to be regulating anything for the better. Anything they have their hands in will be worse, so there's that.

    I don't have much hope for the US. They seem to believe that anything other than unregulated crony capitalism is communism.

    It's all self serving. We are run by greed. The truly great see money as a means to an end, our leaders see money as the end in itself, and it's why they will lose, eventually, as a true leader will unite the people and lay waste to their oligarchy.
