THE 3 ABOVE ARE THE FUNCTIONS OF MONEY (ACCORDING TO ECONOMICS TEXTBOOKS)

And according to the bullshit they told me at university.

Wonderful, the SECOND function: a means of accumulating value (or store of value).

I ask you... from up there in your ignorance 😂 (whoever isn't ignorant shouldn't be offended 😂, and whoever is, shouldn't be offended either, because you're in one of the few right places 😂, and for free! I wasn't offended when the few women I've had told me I couldn't cook: why should you be offended?), does it seem to you that money is a store of value?

If every day you go to work the same hours (or more) and you find it harder and harder to make it to the end of the month, it means money is worth less, savings are worth less and, therefore, that the fourth function being peddled is exactly that: a peddling 😂.

In place of the second function, I'd put another one: HERD CONTROL.

In all... all the economics textbooks...

In all... all the lectures I've heard on the subject... I HAVE NEVER HEARD ANYONE MENTION the function of HERD CONTROL.

And yet I think it's evident... evident... even from up there in a towering ignorance... that creating money gives extraordinary power to whoever has the right to do it, compared to whoever doesn't have that possibility (the part of humanity I call the HERD 😂).
