🚨POPULATION DECLINE COLLAPSED THE ROMAN EMPIRE Stephen J Shaw : “They introduced taxes where if you only had one child, you paid a 25% tax premium. If you had no children, it was a 50% tax premium. And you also lost your retirement rights. That was the Romans trying...

@StephenJShaw Instead of incentivizing people to have more children nowadays, celebrities and politicians are promoting being single with no kids. Encouraging depopulation

@StephenJShaw Population decline Poisoning with lead pipes (you could say the same about our food poisoning us) Loss of sense of nation/belonging Loss of morality from its population Rome was invaded, and its successors built an empire on the ashes of its predecessors.

@StephenJShaw Population collapse is very quickly becoming an existential crisis across the world, one that no one really wants to talk about, in fact, the mainstream is even at times driving the complete opposite narratives.

@StephenJShaw Young people today don't think they can afford to have children.

@StephenJShaw If they hadn't debased their money people would have been able to afford to have more kids. Similar to the West nowadays. People can afford fewer kids because the money system is dying. Bitcoin fixes this.

@StephenJShaw When the government starts penalizing families for having kids, it’s a recipe for disaster!

@StephenJShaw History shows us that economic incentives alone can’t solve deep societal challenges. Real change needs a cultural shift, not just policy tweaks.

@StephenJShaw We've been on a rapid decline here in the US with the depopulation. So many couples having fertility issues, many choosing no kids etc. Our demise is largely our own fault for our lack of participation and letting the govt make choices for us that we should have been making!

@StephenJShaw Promoting life liberty and happiness will naturally promote higher birth rates. Inhuman/post human policies and dystopian futures demoralize and inhibit procreation

An entire empire was overthrown over a two percent tax on a breakfast beverage. Look at what you tolerate now. You are taxed when you earn it. Taxed when you spend it. Taxed when you save it. Taxed when you invest it. And when you die, they tax whatever is left. That is not a system. That is a harvest. You commute in a car you paid sales tax to buy. You drive it on roads you were already taxed to build. You fill it with gas taxed by the gallon. When you sell that car, the next buyer pays sales tax on it again. The same car. Taxed every time it changes hands. You arrive at a job where your salary is cut before it ever touches your hands. If you work for yourself, you pay both sides. Two people on paper. Neither one keeps what they earned. Then you go home. Every bill you open has a government standing behind it with its hand out. You buy a house with money they already took their share of. Then they charge you property tax on it every year for the rest of your life. You want to renovate your own kitchen. You need a permit. You want to build a deck on your own land. You need a permit. You pay for the property. Then you pay for permission to use it. Stop paying property tax and they seize your home. Not because you missed a mortgage payment. Because you missed a payment to the government for the privilege of keeping what is already yours. You do not own your home. You rent it from the state. If you leave something behind for your children, they are taxed on what you were already taxed to earn. The same wealth. Taxed at every stage of your life. Then taxed one final time because you had the audacity to die. They found a way to monetize your absence. We are told this is the price of civilization. It is not. It is architecture. The most effective prison ever built is the one where the inmates believe they are free. They did not take your freedom. They priced you out of it. If you kept the full value of your labor, you would be free within years. Not decades. Years. The system cannot allow that. A machine built on consumption needs a consumer that never stops. You did not sign a social contract. You were assigned one. Now pay attention. They spent decades perfecting the extraction of your productivity. Now they are building the technology to replace you. AI is not coming for your job because corporations are greedy. It is coming because a system that already takes half your output just realized it can take all of it. Without needing you in the equation. You were never the point of this arrangement. You were the input. And the moment they engineer a cheaper one, you become a rounding error on a quarterly earnings call. They did not build AI to free you. They built it to finish what the tax code started. It was never about the tea. It was about the precedent. Today we hand over half our waking lives and thank them for the potholes. You do not live in a free economy. You live in a subscription you never signed up for. And the penalty for canceling is everything you have.
