What of the crime of indirect taxation via unlimited monetary expansion which disproportionately hurts the poor and helps the already rich?

To the extent that this is an accurate characterization of the status quo, its a social problem, not a technological one. No amount of technology will save us from power and its abuse and, in fact, the idea that technology will save us from the problem of building and participating in a just society is, in my opinion, part of the spectacle that keeps us docile in the face of power.

I have no interest in your idea of a just society, nor in my compulsory participation in it.

That is a social problem you solve with social solutions - progressive taxes, UBI, comprehensive safety nets, etc.

Silicon valley has this perverted obsession with applying technological solutions to societal issues. They have phenomenal hammers, but not everything is a nail.

Silicon Valley totalitarians such as yourself will fail. The end.

I think you have the wrong person. My comment is a slight against SV, not one in support of it.
