Dan, the world needs more people like you. Problem-solvers. Doers. Innovators. Those who would be invited to Galt's Gulch.
I think the biggest problem in the world today is government and central bank control of the money supply. Steemit is the most practical platform I have seen to get cryptocurrency in the hands of millions; a step toward getting rid of that cancer.
Keep doing what you do.
The biggest problem is that people are ignorant complacent and submissive.
The banks would have no power over enlightened individuals.
With that being said YES the banks and governments indoctrinate from BIRTH and PERPETUATE the machine/ratrace/matrix to their agenda of power and control.
I agree with this statement since cryptocurrencies became a viable alternative. I would disagree with the declaration if cryptos were not yet around. Because without an alternate way to transmit value, whoever controls the currency has enormous control over users of said fiat currency.
Since cryptocurrencies are indeed a feasible alternative to government and central bank issued money, we have to ask the question "Is it easier to get cryptocurrency widespread, or does the least challenging path involve making the majority of people enlightened?"
I don't see why we can't tackle it from both ends, but I think the former is the most expedient path.
Well, as far as I see, the biggest problem is modern education system. After all, these rotten leaders were made by the modern education system. They're full of greed and envy. They're acting like animals, I mean they're trying to become more powerful in order to "eat" others. That's what we call "selfishness". When one man doesn't care about other.
And this is my quiestion, "How and when this "leader" became so selfish and so rotten?"
And my own answer is - education system. That's what we've missed. And do we know how to educate a leader that can selflessly serve his community?
I agree the education system is a disaster. I think control of the money supply is the biggest of all issues because whoever has control over the issuance of money becomes the most influential person(s) on earth.
Funny... That this saying is said to have started in a comic strip --
