	That sounds like true capitalism (savings) whereas the system 
	Lodewijk is advertising is mercantilism/consumerism/fascism. 

	Notice that Lodewijk has whined in the past about bitcoin being
	'deflationary', that is, not being a tool that can be used to
	covertly steal.

	He's talking about mercantilism. By "advanced finance" he
	actually means the banking mafia and government robbing
	everybody blind. 


Lodewijk : 
> global optimization (the best of communism; managed competition, fine
> tuned production, >designed markets<) 


	That is to say, a mixed economy. Again.
	mercantilism/fascim/state socialism/state communism. 

	Lodewijk is just a run of the mill fascist who thinks he has
	the 'god given' right to 'design' 'society' according to his
	fuckingly retarded tastes. 

	Also, he likes to pretend that the bad outcomes of his fascist
	system are caused by innocent lambs who actually want to do the
	'right' thing. Sick.
