um, because you're doing it, you know, you're speculating, you're speculating in some business to, to drive growth.
And the rate of interest would likely be, uh, you know, the way it used to work was that, you know, if the economy was growing at 8%, say of eight, you know, productivity gains were 8%, then like the, the most secure loan would be, you know, something underneath the rate of growth of the economic system.
Um, and that the,
It all, it all would be in harmony in that world.
So I don't know if that, if that helps from a context to see how, you know,
Yeah.
I hope it, I mean, like hope, you know, we could, we could get hit by a bus tomorrow.
Um, hopefully that doesn't happen, but we, if we live to the average lifespan of, you know,
people in our countries, it will be in our lifetime.
I don't know exactly, you know, there might be a lot of pain that happens along the way as fiat hyperinflates.
I don't view it as we're just going to seamlessly transition from a world of excess and a bunch of zombie companies and a bunch of bad debts to a Bitcoin standard and without economic volatility and dislocations.
But
Yeah, I mean, I continue to believe that this is like a, you know, if we had this conversation two years ago, I would have said 10 years.
If I'm, you know, keeping myself honest, I'll now say eight years because I would have said 10 years that nothing's changed about that.
Um, and you know, I added up to the amount of money that they're going to have to print the, um, the unsustainability of inflation as, as it exists today.
Um,
Artificially manipulating interest rates higher doesn't make it cheaper to get oil out of the ground or to produce food.
And so what people have found in the Keynesian view of economics, the raising of interest rates should have brought inflation down.
And it might be bringing the price of houses down, but it doesn't make the production of any good cheaper.
And the lion's share of people in the economic systems in the developed world are struggling to get by as it is.
