See the previous episodes of this saga at:

STEEMIT Is A Ponzi Scheme - Refuted!

and

STEEMIT Is A Ponzi Scheme - Refuted! (continued...)

For our latest installment, we have 007 asking a question that's been answered two times already.

This is like a little Steemit soap opera. Or my own version of Groundhog Day

I don't understand cryptocurrency at all, not even the Steem stuff I am earning here. (Doing pretty well with a couple $60 pieces and loving the community spirit!) What I do understand is that we have moved from the information age to the age of loosh. Human emotional reactions are where it's at, because as Kanye said, "Feelings matter, bruh!" Our emotions, not our reason, determines our actions. That's why fb likes for you to mark your emotional reactions to as many posts as possible, DARPA really would like to tabulate that for you to see what sort of shit makes your amygdala short-circuit your frontal lobe.

Anyways, we have moved from petrodollar back to human blood, sweat, and tears dollar. That's where value originates, and the dipstick that indicates how full is the tank can get marked with any arbitrary units. Currencies are languages.

Thanks! There is a great 10 minute talk by Alan Watts on the topic of money being the same as inches and feet, and that no construction project was halted because they ran out of inches. He also states that working for money is a Puritan psychological hangup. Humans endeavor to invent things to save labor, then call you lazy. I will look for it when I am back on wifi.
