Banks, Crypto all unsustainable?
This reply is a bit question but not intended to harm or be fan of anything... just see if you can answer...
❓ Can we agree nothing is totally sustainable (not right now) in the fact one / you / we *have to USE SOMETHING UP* in order to transform or change something else ?
❓ Banks are not sustainable either with their currency - right?
(coins, notes, credit cards, paper bills, slips, shop-front units ! etc)
Just checking base-morality there - with or without #crypto topic)
More explained below but those are the basic questions:
Not justifying anything but if you think coins, notes, credit cards etc + banks and people behind them are all great then we have to re-consider that.
On top of just material, is them ( #Banks ) funding both sides of war and their own questionable #morality, they are preying on your savings (using them) as we speak to create #loans as debt that #crypto doesn't seem to have!
#Debt is also a sucking out of all #life and people's #energy that any #Bank didn't need to ask for so highly in return and make people work harder for in #mortgages etc (and other dangerous power constructs leading to #usury)
What do you think?
