So much to mention here...

Go back to ~ medieval times, which were quite different from the mainstream story, and you had kings ruling via dukes & knights, taxing peasants and so on, but still needing some basic, common understanding of the grand goals to get things done. Wars had to be funded with real metals, resources and not least foot soldiers from the general population.

Yeah, life could be nasty, brutish and short, but also there was a lot leisure other than during the harvest & deep winter. Besides war and taxes, most could live their lives left alone, certainly compared to now!

Fast forward to the origin of corporations: projects that were a common good like bridges were sponsored mainly by the wealthy, but soon share certificates made it possible for a lot of people to get in on the action.

Still there was far less central control than later, that emerged later, when the state and now larger corporations and conglomerates used technology to grab power.

What did people regard as "society" through these periods? Certainly that was often quite local, and also much less "diverse" than now. Yeah there was the Austro-Hungarian empire, but that did not carry much of a punch long term...

Does "society" really exist outside of globalist lingo? When corporations and states funnel almost all resources towards their top people and organizations, are we really building anything any longer, maybe rather tearing apart all that is natural, distributed, sane and in harmony with both the outer world and the wishes of real, genuine people?

Can anyone "capitalize on labor" when its really slave labor? In the West today you'll have a very hard time making a living without taxes, regulations and all sorts of insanity... Especially online work is sooo often building your own jail, one way or another!

A free, distributed, new economy on Bitcoin can of course become a very different thing...
