In middle school, before my family has access to the internet, I was taught about how other nations agreed to use the American dollar as a standard and the benefits of leaving the good standard for a fiat currency. I asked if they wasn’t a bad idea because it means if that one country had economic problems everyone would and was promptly told that that’s a dumb question because America can’t have economic problems.

I was raised agnostic and abused through school for not being Christian by people who worship a man that condemned that exact action.

I think I was always destined to feel the way I do.
