To put it on perspective: my country, Argentina, produces food for 10 (TEN) times our current population. Not 10%, not twice, but 10. Yet there are cases in the north of kids that have died of malnutrition. Capitalism? The north averages 90% of employment in state positions. Taxes? 75 to 80% of what's produced. Excess of population? The north barely reaches a million in total. We are 45.000.000 million. We produce food for 450.000.000 million. What's the problem? Government, or vertical farming?

hhhmm...you are right. Government is the problem.

Here an example: I had a friend once saying to me that the state haves to intervene sometimes because otherwise capitalism can abuse people, and cited as an example an internet company that had monopolized the service in his village. I simply asked him "why is there not another service, isn't allowed?" - "no, because the local government only authorized his cousins company as the only legal providOHHHHHHH I see..."

The funny thing is that if the youth adopts Bitcoin faster, all of that money sucked from them through inflation will go back to them
