You seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of monetary systems and methods of governance. You do not need to print money to provide those services, tax revenue is more then enough to cover all critical infrastructure and support systems.

"There is also no downside to it, if you keep it under control."

It is never kept under control, name one nation where money printing hasn't run rampant due to corruption.

I doubt I'll convince you here but i'd encourage to to take a deeper look at why you believe this. As you do keep in mind that many foundational aspects of mainstream economic theory have been proven wrong by other scientific disciplines such as psychology.

We have age minimums because the mind has not finished developing and we should also have age maximums based on the average age cognitive decline sets in.

Until we are able to properly identify outliers it's probably best to stick with the subset of the population with the highest probability of meeting the minimum qualifications for the position.

Most people don't want to be pirates they just don't want to pay for an inferior service. You want people to pay then make a product worth paying for that's prorated by country, and they gladly will.

As an example of just how bad it is, pirate streaming sites have sort by date, country, IMDb score, genre, etc. but most paid services don't have any sort feature beyond genre. This effectively makes paid services unusable for a lot of people.

Due to the rampant inflation of fiat currencies Bitcoin has reached a new All Time High (ATH) in 3 nations, and approaches it in a 4th.

Breached ATH

Argentina: https://www.google.com/finance/quote/BTC-ARS?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjd7aTVheT_AhUfMVkFHfXuDcgQ-fUHegQIARAc&window=MAX

Lebanon: https://www.google.com/finance/quote/BTC-LBP?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjto8f4heT_AhU0FlkFHceXCqYQ-fUHegQIARAc&window=MAX

Venezuela: I was unable to locate an accurate chart for BTC/VES due to the changes made to VES in 2021. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/venezuela-unveils-new-currency-6-fewer-zeros-rcna2515

However if you take a look at the 1 and 10 year chart (https://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=BTC&to=VES&view=1Y) you can see that adjusted for this change the previous ATH was 210,403 and today's price is 846,874.

Approaching ATH
