Existing economics teaches us that mankind invented the monetary system because barter was inconvenient. Despite having a monetary system, people still felt that even currency issued by it was inconvenient; therefore, economists explain that they created the current credit economy system. However, evidence found by anthropologists contradicts that explanation. In other words, it is argued that the credit transaction system existed before the monetary system, and then the credit system became distrusted for some reason. As a result, the monetary system was created and eventually replaced. Cryptocurrency today is a mathematical algorithm that makes it impossible to forge or alter transaction records. This happened because we don’t trust humans, and in ancient times, there was a more advanced credit transaction system. Don’t be fooled into thinking that the present is more advanced than the past. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Paradoxically, one of the reasons for Rome’s demise was that it kept winning wars. Victories expanded the empire’s territory, and the risks increased proportionally. Men, primarily middle-class men, volunteered as soldiers; the larger the territory, the longer the wars lasted, and the longer it took for them to return home. The women who remained at home were forced to borrow labor and became indebted to the nobility. Eventually, the women were sold into slavery, and by the time the men returned, their families had disintegrated. People don’t betray because they’re evil, but because it increases their risk. If the territory you’re in grows, you might reconsider your loyalties to the organization. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
