1. The inflation we see with fiat currencies (USD, AUD, etc.) is straight up theft. This theft hurts the least advantaged people most.
@brasshopper The first link is libertarian claptrap and unworthy of consideration. The second has nothing to do with cryptocurrency.
I agree that inflation is a rort, and tax is well kind of required if you want common infrastructure and what not, but also efficiently spent in many countries, controlled (in many cases) by corrupt politicians and governments and often doesn't serve the people that it should. There a loads of problems with taxes, and I _believe_ inflation is stupid.
We just got our rates bill (think land tax) and the value of our land (that our house sits on) went up by some stupid amount.
One has to wonder... At what point does the value of something (and thus the taxes you have to pay) stop going up?! 🤦♂️
