    In Weimer Germany, that loaf hyperinflated to at least $1,000, and would double by the end of a day.

    As a bronze lining, at least hyperinflation would happen to the Trump Regime and should cause quite a bit of blowback. It was the Weimer’s economic problems that installed Hitler. With any luck, we will see Trump hanging by his feet, and AOC hard at work at his former desk.













  • Caste systems don’t allow ordinary people to change their lot in life. What I am proposing is that jobs have codified incomes, education PAYS people to learn, citizens guaranteed an income even if they don’t have a job, universal benefits that apply to migrants, everyone pays taxes that increase with their income rank, and that companies pay 100% taxes once their income or wealth expands past a cap based on the people they are employing, that naturalization for citizenship is automatic for migrants.

    The only caste I want to create, is that everyone has prosperous agency. That requires the creation of wealth floors and ceilings, ensuring workers can vote for leadership and what income they are owed, and so forth. Mechanisms intended to destroy the ratchet effect of wealth and the influence of a powerful few.

    Castes are all about ensuring specific people are strong at the expense of everyone else.
