content: That's not true at all. The value of a currency is not determined by is distribution. On the contrary: national economies thrive when the access to wealth is distributed evenly and the vast majority of money is in flux. That's actually one the originary goals of every central banking institution around the globe. The problem is that there are basically two scenarios on HOW this money is generated in our case:   That money is generated by decree (printed) instead being linked to some kind of profitable endeavor (loan) -> inflation, everything goes to shit   The money is stolen and redistributed -> theft, taxes or whatever newspeak may dictate, everything goes to shit.   That fat fuck doesn't create, it consumes...  generates no additional benefit whatsoever. Interesting is the approach of the modern monetary theory. But that's just insanely interruptive and reminds me of 'the Purge', just in an economic setting.
