What I've been working on
Fiat Marriage - I wrote about how the No-Fault Divorce law debased marriage and removed the backing of fidelity in the same way that Nixon’s suspension of gold convertibility debased money. The current conception of marriage is way too focused on self-fulfillment and not enough on children, family and duty.
Alex Epstein Interview - Reading Alex’s book and talking with him on my podcast has totally redpilled me on fossil fuels. They are one of the greatest things for humanity and it’s crazy that they’ve been demonized so much. Green energy is an altcoin and fossil fuels are the real engine of civilization growth. Listen to this interview to learn more.
Bitcoin Today Coalition - I’ve been part of this 501c4 to educate regulators and lawmakers on Bitcoin. We’re raising money to push our mission. Please join us to advocate for Bitcoin in government.
What I'm up to
Chattanooga - I’m coming to Chattanooga next week to hang out and talk about Bitcoin. The place seems to be growing and I’m excited to be visiting. I keep hearing how Tennessee is a competitor to Texas, so I’ll be there to evaluate it for myself.
El Salvador Scholarship - I’ll be teaching my class in San Salvador on July 18-19. If you are going to be there and want a scholarship, please apply. We have a lot of different companies and individuals sponsoring this and if your organization wants to supply a scholarship or three, please reply to this newsletter.
Rene Girard - I’m reading a lot on mimetic desire and the need for scapegoats. I wish I had read this stuff years ago, but his work didn’t really cross my radar until the last year.
