All USD is printed. Taxes are the only thing that gives USD its value.

I have a problem with the meme playing footsie with the ideas that taxes are theft and money-printing is fraud.

These are common neo-metallist arguments. And in techie spaces like the fediverse, libertarians like to sneak them into the conversation while going “How do you do, fellow progressives?” before they start pitching NFTs.
