36,000 bitcoins for political campaigning

in Proof of Brain3 years ago

Situations like the one I'm going to narrate below make me understand more every day because cryptocurrencies are the future and the state's currency, the past (even though they are still so present in our daily lives).

In what situation would a group of peaceful people who decide to constitute their nation and adhere to bitcoin as the main currency would find it a good idea to donate 36,000 bitcoin to politicians to campaign for politics?

I can list several hypotheses in the most diverse situations and I believe that in none of them this would happen.

But in a country like Brazil, with a devalued shitcoin called Real (local currency), this can happen.

In 2019, the absurd 2 billion BRL for the 2020 political campaigns had already been approved, and even with the unforeseen expenses resulting from the pandemic, the government closing the economy in the negative, the deputies thought it was a good idea to increase this fund by 2 billion to 6 billion for the 2022 campaign.


- I'm concerned about this increase in party fund.
-Me either. We will have to hire more people to help carry the money.

Here's a funny fact and a worrying fact about the distribution of that money.

The deputies from the base of the government, voted in favor of this increase, soon after they went to social networks to say that they were against the increase, that they were in favor of an amendment not to increase it, but that they had to vote to approve the bill.

Did that make sense to you? I don't think for anyone, but it happens every week in Brazil.

After being approved in the Chamber of Deputies, it was voted on in the Senate. And again approved.

A curious fact, the son of the president who is a Deputy voted yes, and the other son of the president who is a Senator (and accused of corruption) voted yes too.

Now the proposal is in the hands of the president, who can choose between approving, not approving and making this matter go back to Congress, or partially approving.

The population wants it to be partially approved, vetoing the increase.

And now that the 4d chess of arguments begins.

The president said he's going to veto it, but no one believes it because since everything he says was elected, he does the opposite later.

He is in serious danger of suffering impreachment, and the parties that receive the biggest slice of the billion are the physiological ones, the ones that are the majority in deciding whether a president remains in office or not.

The narrative I think the president will use will be something close to: "I had to approve, otherwise they would try to get me out of the presidency, now let's show the strength of the people in 2022 so that this doesn't happen again."

Even with all the polls showing that he loses to any candidate who goes against him. He achieved the feat of being the most rejected president in history.

The president who promised that he would decrease ministries and increased. The president who promised he would privatize everything and didn't privatize anything, but created a state-owned company. The President who handed over the keys to the public coffers to a physiologist's party (something that has never happened in the history of Brazil).

And we could stay until tomorrow citing several other problems that this misgovernance has brought.

But I'm sure of one thing. In a decentralized economy like Bitcoin, this madness wouldn't even be discussed. Since these politicians wouldn't even have access to that money.

It's the premise:

Not your keys. Not your money.

The most important point in politics is don't believe what politicians say
Wait for their actions and judge them
They can hide their intentions behind words, but actions reveal them

A política brasileira mostrando o que sabe fazer de melhor: ser uma chacota (em nível mundial).

Essa briga de esquerda e direita ta osso... Precisamos ir pra frente.
Vamos votar em partidos que usam fundo eleitoral

The blockchain reveals everything. We know where transfers are going. It's the opposite of corruption.

I believe this is the best reason why cryptos are the future, fiat currency, it's the biggest bubble in history, eventually the dollar will burst and all this inflation will reflect on the population, the masses will realize that in order to conserve their patrimonio should use cryptos.

I'm not saying that it will be a third world war, but that those who are not prepared will lose a good part of the value of their heritage.

What a waste! The politicians out there don't deserve our time, energy and money. I've never seen a politician running a state/country on favour of the citizens. It's all a power gimmick i believe.

Por isso só voto em partidos que não usa fundo eleitoral.
Precisamos ir pra frente. Chega de ir para os lados, seja direito ou esquerdo
