Will tip 🎩 https://x.com/molson_hart/status/1774236723125297437

The three last things have a spirit of individual freedom, which is in itself a double edged sword. It comes down to whether or not the free individuals are innovative enough to make up for the inefficiencies their system results in. We must create and innovate if we want to be free.

Per our convo the other week, democracy is functioning less and less, but it still appears to be far better than many alternatives. The two currencies are at odds, but ETFs suggest we can act swiftly should the writing on the wall for USD become evident.

US democracy, while not flawless, benefits from robust checks and balances. Unlike an “efficient” dictatorship, it has the capacity to rectify its errors. Some may argue that democratic debates consume time, but history demonstrates that vigorous discourse is the bedrock of great nations.

On USD as reserve currency: It's a symbol of hegemony, making the US a target. Example: BRICS aims at de-dollarizing the global economy. Won't be possible in a few months but what in 5 or 10 years and what's the global impact on US reliability as a partner? (That's also related to democracy/dysfunctional governance.)
