This is why cryptocurrency was invented. Satoshi even signed a statement about government bailouts in the first bitcoin transaction.

The truth is that the game is rigged. Like entropy, government power always increases over a long enough timeframe. Anytime the spotlight is shined on government they manipulate the game or blame corporations. Then they introduce regulation to "protect" citizens but these regulations add up to just keeping big business entrenched.

Satoshi doesn't get any credit for stating what people have been stating literally for decades before "he" came along. Let's not give him credit for anything other than the bitcoin algorithm.
I think you misread my statement. The first bitcoin block literally had a political statement embedded into it. That's all I'm pointing out.
