Wait, so how does he expect to fight capitalism, if all he'd be allowed to do was always logged and observed bank wire transfers?
Thats rather shortsighted.

That's because you know you cannot compete. Ironically, this kind of crab-in-the-bucket egalitarianism is a form of selfish self-interest on your part.

It is backed by cost of electrical consumption.
Its just that 90% of its value is speculation. But it absolutely does have "real value" and is backed by material reality.

is being punished for attempted murder unjust because you failed to hurt the person and thus there is no victim?
