Dirty Money

in #engrave6 years ago

I don't usually carry hardly any cash in my wallet, but last night we had a birthday party at a club for my wife. I don't drink anymore, but I had a wad of cash in my pockets for drinks and tips and whatnot. I was looking at it this morning at how worn and torn it was. At how dirty it was.

How many hands it has passed thru. How many people desperate for it. How many people in high places conniving to deceive us about it. How it is illegally "washed" and "laundered" like so many dirty clothes that are eventually worn out and thrown away. At how primitive our economic medium is in printing pictures of dead presidents on pieces of paper. Presidents whom many of which would never condone the centralized and private system of money creation and monopolization we now daily depend on. How we have created houses of worship around the private palaces of the world's Federal Reserve banking system and centralized banks for corruption.

As we look to embark on a new world monetary system, a 3rd millenia monetary system, one embracing the beauty of an abstract, decentralized, and multiculture world. One that flows rapidly and unencumbered through diverse and authentic financial transactions between individuals creating products, services and content that aren't under the gaze and supervision of the oligarchs. It is a long-term play for sure... who knows how long, but the only worthwhile path to clean things up.

Peace on the STEEM blockchain @ClumsySilverDad

When I worked as a cashier, I always was conscious that wet dollars coming out of wallets were drenched in ass sweat. And, they would go into the same register with the other dollars.

we're all seeing how primitive and dirty it is ... unfortunately the digital system may lead to even greater control, centrality, and manipulation if not handled properly... well it's nearly all digital now anyways

Indeed. It is rare that I have cash on hand. Typically, if somebody gives me cash, it sits there until I have enough to make a deposit worthwhile. Or, I use it to buy cookies or whatever the kids are selling.

The cryptocurrency is the natural response to the current financial system.

It is certainly one natural response. We will just have to see what kind of coherence it develops.
