In this video, I discuss how Bitcoin fixes big government and its overreach by helping to defund it and normalize its size vs the overall economy.

When government is too big, everything becomes politicized, as people seek to weaponize the government against their enemies or use it as a slush fund for their business.

Under a Bitcoin standard, governments will need to persuade or force you (easier said than done) to give them some Bitcoin to fund their operations.

If the government wants to "print up some more BTC," it will need to mine like everyone else. It won't be able to just print up fiat and steal from savers through a stealth inflation tax.

Bitcoin fixes government overreach by defunding it. If the people decide that something is worth doing it, they will choose to fund it. Bureaucrats won't be able to fund non-economically smart projects (like renewables or forever wars) by diluting savers through money printing.

The size of government and its oversized impact on the economy will shrink. No longer will every fight or quarrel be escalated to the political level, simply because there won't be enough money at the political level to weaponize the US government against your enemies.
