Most normal people really hate the idea of filtering the earth's crust to find tiny bits of special rock and putting that rock back in holes guarded by men with guns.

Thus it's no wonder most people really don't get the idea of allocating the energy equivalent of Denmark to finding very specific numbers, declaring them property, and splitting the ownership of that property into a finite space by giving millions of people the same exact file.

But it makes sense when you understand that it's the sad propensity of the State to go utterly berserk every few years and destroy everyone's savings, confiscate wealth, and obliterate private property.

It would be crazy to do these things otherwise, but we are forced into them. Most of our habits only make sense in context. That's difference between the shiny rock / specific number fans, and the people who believe them insane. Context.
