RE: Finding a Watering Hole as an Anarchist

in #steemit8 years ago

I really enjoyed reading this article. I've been involved in the silver market, was at one point even trying to get a silver based barter economy going. Although I'm about as into organized religion as you can get (I'm Roman Catholic and a leader in my parish), I really enjoy talking with people about things like anarchy and I know all about how our government has a more globalist agenda than what would be truly in our best interests (putting it mildly). I've even dabbled into Internet marketing, but was not able to actually break through, plus I'm probably too busy with raising my children to be able to give it as much as it would need. I'm liking Steemit too. I think the discussions are generally more civil than they are on Facebook, even when people disagree. Looking forward to reading more of your posts :)

Thank you for stopping by. Are you excited for silvers prospects in 2017? It is looking like it could have a nice run up soon. I am doing my best to avoid the globalist agenda. Panama is a great place to lay my head and watch the system unfold from afar.

Steemit so far has been a breath of fresh air. I hope it continues to grow at a break neck pace.

You know, my philosophy is that it's better to buy and hold physical silver over the long term because the spot price is often manipulated, and the amount of silver that's electronically traded is greater than the amount that actually exists (not sure how they do that, but no one questions that they do it). It's been kept artificially low for so long that after a while you get bored looking at it unless you either want to buy or sell, which I haven't done much of in the past year. I will admit to having put silver involvement on the back burner since around 2013 when I discovered Bitcoin and the whole world of cryptocurrencies. But it seems like the anarchist people and the silver people tend to also find their way into the cryptosphere one way or another. I was open to learning about Bitcoin because of having been involved with silver and trying to promote an economy that would tie us less to the Fed, etc. It's interesting how that all works.

Exactly that is what happened to me. Silver was my gateway drug to crypto ; ). I have not bought any in years but I feel I have enough physical. Crypto is so much more interesting.

Crypto definitely comes in more flavors and varieties :)
