Thank you very much for your comment!

I'm not so worried about the natural resources of our planets and the population. Milton Friedman expresses my views about this quite well:

Socialization of the money supply would be a first necessary step...

What do you mean with socialization? I think that decentralization of the money supply is the right way to go as it distributes the power over the money supply to a greater number of people. That's the promise of cryptocurrencies.

LOL! Posting a video by one of the main proponents of neoliberal oligarchy isn't really going to cut it for me. The dismissal of serious, serious ecological problems is a dismal position to hold, IMO....
Friedman was obviously very well aware that The Rothschild's took over the creation of the money supply which has led to enormous wealth and power ending up in the hands of a very few. This is a case of the victors writing ideology!
I'm with you on the crypto but sit right in the middle of the 50/50 position on it. Time will tell what crypto is but I do hope for the best as far as it goes on that one.
Check out positivemoney if you've never heard of it.
I mean creating and distributing the money supply at creation evenly to everyone and preferable​, not as a debt mechanism. I can see how the winners in the status quo would hate this idea......
