Do people who use to #fiatCurrencies, like #USD or #AUD know they've been trolled every single day of their life?

I can't actually read the article because of the NYT paywall, but based on the title and poetic summary, I'm guessing anyone interested in this might also find this 2009 essay of mine to offer useful perspective:

TL;DR - As private governments, credit card companies offer a safety net to their citizens not offered to many citizens of the United States. The tax that supports this is the high interest rate, but alas it's not deductible, so it's double-taxation on those who can least afford it.

👋 This was some hard work. A list of mostly #usury-aware folks. Then I asked #chatgpt what kinda app they would make together, and then I asked what they would have thought about #holochain. 🙇♀️ The folks at #holo might want to see this? @helioscomm 🙏

Great question!
They also put a hook in the jaw of senior citizens trying to pay bills on scant retirement income. I know of two who had their retirement income sucked right out of them one 23% loan at a time. It was a horror to watch what it did to their lives in real time, but when they asked if I could take their beloved pet because they could no longer afford to feed it...I cried right along with them.

Wondering if a virus that attacks #propertyDevelopers and #gentrifiers and other #imperial and #colonialist forces would be good too.
What do these ppl have in common?
Is there a Propensity for #Hedonist Consumption and #Usury and Psychopathy combination of #genes that we can target them with?
