That's an interesting way to look at it. I agree they obtained the wealth through theft, but are you not stealing from the thieves by borrowing? I'm sure you've seen those charts re the decline in the buying power of the dollar. It has accelerated enormously since the pandemic. I believe it will only accelerate from here. We all know how bitcoin has appreciated in fiat terms since its inception.
That being said, I can see your point. Borrowing as I suggest requires discipline. I do worry about my brothers, as you say, but I'm not a communist. I believe individuals have a right to do what's best for them, and not look at things in a collectivist way. In the end, I think that destroying the fiat system will be good for everyone.
I'm not saying you should be a commie. But a lot of individuals have no means (either wealth or education) to get out of their shitty situation.
but are you not stealing from the thieves by borrowing?
No, because as I said they are not handing you anything they have, they are literally creating new fiat on the spot.
The only way to "steal" from your enemies is to simply transfer your wealth into bitcoin and not use fiat at all.
