Somebody posted this quote on Facebook…
Maybe that’s why the EU tries to regulate agriculture, and energy, tries to control the money with a single currency. Food was the main concern for governments in the ancient world. Just read plaques in cuneiform to get the idea.
Energy was for the most history slave labor and horse power, only the Industrial Revolution introduced new forms of energy such as hydrocarbons and electricity. Bitcoin is based on energy. Production requires energy. Modern society requires energy. Light go out, civilization goes out.
Money is the medium of exchange, pricing and money supply are important for the exchange of goods. BRICS wants its own exchanges, its own financial system. The Russians and Chinese are both on it.
Somehow countries (not all countries) became conscious of these important components of civilization. Russia for instance became a net exporter of food in 2016. The West is finally coming around the fact they need to build nuclear, ☢️ renewables are not going to cut it in the brave new world of AI and electric everything.
But one only wonders what took them this long?

Well it’s in that quote, they overrated the money. It’s the number 1, but it’s not really that much more important than energy. No energy no money. Germany is learning it hard way.
And if you think about it, food is also energy, I mean freaking calorie is unit of energy.
