    Yes indeed! Many excellent points made in this video. The 'digitalisation' of life is an ever-constricting prison cell for us all!

    I am in Bangkok now as I write this. I haven’t been here in a decade or little more. Men, I am shocked at the prices and disappearance of Thai architecture and in general Thai culture. Really sad about this. Looking at the city it looks like NYC or something. Your rant is great man.

    Don't use mobiles, don't use apps. Unfortunately the masses, while collectively having the power, are unable to unhook themselves from that handheld government control device and imprison themselves.

    Like you said - look at the West - specifically the US. The US has managed to spread their 'debt' model throughout the world. Keep telling your audience NOT to follow down the debt path.

    Interesting take on Keynesianism. Consider there's 28 million Americans currently employed by the US government, that's a whole lot of data only non real productivity generating economic activity. Biggest problem is it's economic crack- getting off it is pain the system doesn't want to deal with.

    It's pretty essential though already. When making large purchases who wants to be having to extract & physically transfer large sums of cash? Not me. On the other hand I use cash every day for everything.

      @doodlegassum6959 just in terms of cash van robbery stats the move to digital as the main means of bulk transfer has saved a lot of lives. If you've been in SE Asia a while you would remember when extremely violent robbery was a daily event in many cities.

      @@doodlegassum6959 same where I am in Australia, on a smaller scale. I agree with Benjamin on the threat being real, just consider we're stuck with the political reality- just sitting on physical cash isn't smart, having to carry amounts worthy of being harmed for- not a practice most people are going to want to go back to. Balance & ensuring the middle ground builds towards a rights based system is all we can do.

    Not only for entrepreneur's; but, for the country as a whole. If Thailand proceed in the process of joining the OECD, and lately BRICS, they will find that they no longer have control over the economy and will be constrained by rules they have signed up to without realising the impact.

    The digital money means the Government can control these accounts as seen in Canada when they froze these accounts. It is the very actions all people should be aware of.
