Congress sends cease and desist plea to Facebook over crypto plans

Making Currency Current (Reducing the oxymoroness of currency [from “current”]): Do not throw the baby out with the bathwater Libra is first and foremost a thrust towards making currency as current as it is for birds, bees abd trees. Towards having currency virtue signal currentness. Q: How many hours per day must a bird work to have a decent life? A: 1-3 hours Q: Why do so many humans have tough lives working 10 hour shifts? A: Because human currency is not anywhere as current, as currency is for birds. Q: Has currency always been uncurrent for humans? A: No. For example it was not, in the villages that came together to 1) create what are called Hindu numerals 2) that created the first version of blockchain, bigpage (Tamil: பேரேடு) that preceded the building of the first dam in the world in 300 AD — Kallanai on the Kaveri River, Tamilnadu,India. Still functional. Q: What do we have to do to make currency current again? A: Go back to first principles. Firmly grasp and make happen the first and last principle of currency — that it is the trustfulness of individuals in a community, solidified. Paper money sinks to zero if it loses the trust of villagers if it becomes uncurrent.The shift of sovereignity from villages to an unaccountable central institution has waylaid the currentness.
