Truth about politics and blockchain

in #blockchain7 years ago (edited)

Politicians follow their own self-interests, their own need for preservation, and their need to be re-elected.

They are never going to deliberately do something to bring on short-term pain, even if it is exactly what is needed.

They are never going to ask them to swallow medicine that is bitter, even if it will cure us.

They would rather give us some sugar or something that tastes good just so they can get re-elected, even if in the process the disease gets worse since we are not treating it.

Once it comes to the point where it is so bad they cannot do it anymore, then they may finally be forced to do the right thing.

However, they will try everything else first. ~ Peter Schiff

If true, what does it hold for the future?

Politicians as a type of human animal rule our world at the bidding of the power elite.

In my time they've mastered the computer and soon their own blockchains to their benefit.

The name for the event 911 is so apropos given that our first response to any emergency is to ring 911.

Blockchain is another such appropriate naming, as is cellphone.

Taken from us is our freedom as we each live in our own unique cell tied in chains to blocks of information.

The surveillance state will never die and we're each serving a life sentence.

Most will never awaken, but most are not needed for a critical mass to form.

There is a way out but it requires rejecting deep-seated beliefs and building anew through cherry-picking so-called "appropriate technologies".
