RE: Blockchain and the End of the Western Civilization

Very intriguing and provocative ideas. To be able to physically not have to leave, but have no tax footprint is a very optimistic viewpoint that hopefully we can achieve through blockchain.

I'm not necessarily optimistic, beware what you wish for! If we achieve that and all public services collapse, we might realise it's not as great as we hoped it would be ... The timing, the adaptation response of the administrations and other factors will come into play and the end-result is hard to predict. What I'm pretty sure though is that the current heavy states will have to change and adapt

Yes. As with anything it is hard to know how the dominoes will fall after the first one does. It could also be similar to the French Revolution how the ideas are great in theory and then a new system of control just replaced the old one.
