Let me put this another way:

The system that enforces fiat currency upon the majority also insulates the wealthy from the repercussions of their market manipulations. As long as the elite do not infringe upon the interests of their peers, they navigate with impunity, shielded from the consequences of actions that, for others, would result in severe penalties. This creates disparity in accountability and influence. The rich operate within a system that is tailored to their advantage and exploit these dynamics to enhance their wealth and power, which, in turn, reinforces their interests while imposing fiat currency's burdens on the masses (as evidenced in this thread).

You are all making an appeal to the system that enforces fiat currency, without explaining why money is real. It's not, and it has different value based on who controls the system. In theory, if the fiat system is controlled by the people, it should work fine, as we are all agreeing to that value. HOWEVER, when people have accrued enough influence to manipulate that system, resting control from the people, they can leverage that to give themselves endless Monopoly money, which is where we are now. I'm not cool with fake and unjust.

Money IS imaginary. The fact that you are burdened by the system that enforced the fiat currency it doesn't make it less so.
