Anyone else feel the same?
I have never been as rich as this year, but the state of the world has never been as bad.
Property rights?
They want to tax capital gains on homes here now. Non-conviction based confiscation for 'criminals', aka you have to prove you got your wealth trough legal means, instead of the government having to prove you didn't.
Wealth = criminal until proven not.
Freedoms?
QR-code to movement, entry, and social credit system pushing propaganda is already starting.
Health = sick until proven not.
Free-markets?
More and more government intervention, regulations etc. Especially related to carbon emissions and environment.
Privacy?
Long gone, people don't even care about it because "they have nothing to hide".
Democracy?
Our government is demissionary, but got free-reign to do anything because of covid. So basically all power with zero repercussions or pushback. I don't value a system where people can vote others wealth to themselves anyway, but this takes the cake.
Safety?
More and more people going into poverty because of inflation. Crime is rising, mainly economic (thefts/burglary). Drugcartels are actually winning against the government.
It feels like becoming king of the ashes, and I'm thinking about leaving to countries who actually value those things. But even thinking about leaving everything behind makes me feel a deep kind of sadness.
How do you guys cope?
