Bitcoin in an Illusionary\u00a0Age<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/header>\n

\"Bitcoin<\/p>\n

It is altogether fitting that crypto currencies, in particular Bitcoin, have witnessed a meteoric rise in this illusionary age.\u00a0 Not only has their monetary value gone to dizzying heights, but they are now being touted as the destroyer of the current, crumbling monetary order and the next paradigm upon which a new money and banking system will emerge.<\/p>\n

In an era where sacrifice, hard work, loyalty, ingenuity, tradition, and independent thought are considered anathemas, while affirmative action, sloth, effeminacy, office seeking, and something-for-nothing schemes are endemic in every walk of life, it is not surprising that non-tangible, computer-generated currencies would become a \u201cnatural\u201d feature of such a world.<\/p>\n

While it has always been a haven for charlatans, traitors, cheats, thieves, liars, and serial adulterers, contemporary political life has become even more of a sham.\u00a0 The most glaring example of politics\u2019 utter corruption can be seen in the recent departed chief executive officer of the US.\u00a0 Unless one abandons all critical thinking, Obummer was unqualified to be president because of the obvious fact that he was not born on American soil.\u00a0 Not only did this disqualify him, but his educational and professional backgrounds have not been verified.\u00a0 Neither his collegiate records nor his supposed teaching career at the University of Chicago Law School have ever been exposed to public scrutiny.\u00a0 From the few utterances he has made about his supposed specialty \u2013 constitutional law \u2013 it appears that he has only a rudimentary knowledge of the subject.<\/p>\n

Cultural life has descended to the basest of levels and has abandoned nearly all of Western Civilization\u2019s glorious achievements.\u00a0 Consider music.\u00a0 The dominant form of what passes as music today is not the works of the great maestros of the past \u2013 Bach, Mozart, Beethoven \u2013 but instead, noise in the form of rock, hip hop, rap, grunge, or whatever the latest degenerate trend is in vogue.<\/p>\n
