Topic: Government always hides productive truths from the masses - page 2. (Read 855 times)

The government cannot give a knowledge they do not have, although, they do hide the truth from her citizens, yet, it's also the obligation of any being with a brain and time to research for themselves whatever thing that interests them. Africans have a lot trust for their government such that most people wait for their orders before they could do anything on their own.

However, since the people are beginning to discover the truth, and the few youths who moved ahead to venture into crypto, not minding what the government says, now reaping the fruit of their labor, a lot more eyes are being opened to see what's real. 

I agree with you. Even in my country, there are those who have not cared about Bitcoin since the beginning, and even now my country has not legalized Bitcoin. I think if we look back there will definitely be regrets for not investing when Bitcoin was first launched but what can we do, because we live in a country and sometimes without information we can only surrender to the situation.

You do not have to "trust" them, but you do have to follow their instructions, because governments instructions are basically laws, and if you do not follow the law, the ending isn't so great. Obviously it is not going to be so simple, some people will have some issues about it, but we just need to make sure that we are aware that we are not going against the government neither.

You are right that, even if we dislike the government and hate what they are doing, we just have to accept the fact and just move on with it and there isn't really anything that will take that much time, we shouldn't really see that as an issue, we should just keep remembering that government has the power over us, and no matter what we do, only thing we can do is vote them out, that's it.

It's truly disheartening to about the challenges and misinformation that nation are facing regarding to digital technology and cryptocurrency like Bitcoin. It's unfortunate that some governments have not prioritized educating their citizens about these advancements, leading to missed opportunities and a lack of understanding. The technology world is evolving and there is a shift from analog to digital technology which is indeed a significant transformation and it is understandable how the lack of proper education and infrastructure can create hinderance to embracing these changes. It's crucial for governments to empower their citizens with knowledge and resources to align with the digital world effectively.

The misinformation surrounding Bitcoin are common especially when governments restrict and spread false narratives concerning bitcoin. It's important for individuals to seek out reliable sources of information and educate themselves about these technologies to align with the global change in the tech world. Despite the setbacks it is never too late to learn about and invest in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.

Even if you don't like the actions of the government, you have to trust the government and follow their instructions. You have to go according to the budget they make. When the government adds extra VAT on something, you have to accept it because you cannot go against it and reduce the VAT. Many activities of the government may feel bad to you or go against your will but you must accept them. You must take into account some of the points you made here on the subject of Bitcoin Validation. For example, the economic conditions of all countries are not the same. There are many developing countries whose economic conditions are weak and the governments of those countries certainly do not want to stop domestic transactions through banks because when domestic transactions through banks are stopped, they will suffer a lot economically. Considering these aspects, we cannot say that the government always takes bad decisions.

There are governments that even with the support of their citizens, they still don't do well. But I agree that not all information should be spread to the public especially if they are classified and need to remain censored.

It's just sad to see that many governments are like that, they hide their incompetence through making another noise so that the attention of people will go there instead of backlashing their incompetence.

Well, this is a politics game and most of them knows how to play the game.

It isnt really shocking that there would really be those individuals who would really be that totally despise the government on which it isnt really just that right on having such approach on which you've said that there might be some mistakes but not all government would really be something like this. It would really be normal that there would really be some classified informations which arent supposed to be shared up into its citizens or into the masses to avoid some panic or whatever their plans would be because we dont know on what are the plans or they do know on what they are doing. Somehow, with those other non good
behavior and doings with other government in some parts of the world then you cant really be able to blame out people on why they would really be having that kind of hesitance.

So instead on making yourself that being too worrying or get stressed on whatever they could potentially do then it would be best that you should be focusing on the things that you are doing.
Dont mind about government and dont mind other people. Truth might be hidden up but sooner or later it would really be exposed if ever there would be informations or things
that been hidden upon.

But, I think he is already frustrated and that this is why he is here with this thread. Each of us has things that we prefer to keep as secret and so as the governments. There are still things that they care to tell us and ask our opinion if it's good to do or not, so I won't attacked them right away. That's harsh if you will say that governments don't always do the right things and if they do, then they won't sit any longer on their position because they are only ruining the country or its economy. Again they are only a human like us and they can make a mistake too sometimes. Governments don't intimidate the poor but in fact they like helping them the most.

Would highly agree on governments being self-serving and corrupt to the point that they'd keep shit away from the people even when it's supposed to make lives better and easier. However, isn't Africa already a little bit more crypto-friendly so to speak? I mean I have friends and acquaintances living in the South Africa who got jobs and had their lives practically set from cryptocurrency investments, and while yes, banks and governments in some parts of the continent are adamant about banning cryptocurrencies entirely, for the whole rest the continent's pretty much crypto friendly and are becoming even more by the day.

So yeah, I completely agree with you, just don't see why you'd think Africans are crypto-ignorant when they've been at the forefront of most cryptocurrency movements as of late.

Op really need to get use to it because if he don't the government will frustrate him. However the truth is that governments will not tell us the truth on about the things they do, because they don't do the right things always.. most of the things they do are not good, because they uses their power to intimidate the poor.

The government cannot be too open to the public neither will they be that lenient by sharing some sensitive information to the public, we should go by the way of their leadership, since we believe in their competencies and make use of that in voting them into power, all that is required is for us to render a supportive hands towards every developments they are giving to the people.

The reason why people are always talking about the government is that they are tired and they won’t stop talking until the government have satisfy the needs of the people. And this have started for a very long time now and I don’t think it will end anytime soon, because currently they spend money during elections so they will want to make back the money they have spent through their corrupt practices. The people they are called to serve they no longer care about how people feel all they want now how they can satisfy their self. Greed haven driven them to engage in corrupt practice. People are tired that is why they are accepting it. It’s like people don’t longer have choices. And any form of protest will lead to government using the police and the rest to intimidate does that are trying to fight for the right thing. It will eventually get to a point people will disregard the kind of behavior that the government is portraying.

Why should people not spend time arguing or debating about government matters? Are those bodies not in power to serve their citizens and not the other way around? No doubt,  corruption is at the height of it, but still, we shouldn't be entirely quiet and accept things the way they leave them to be.
 
Discussion about such matters brings about exposure, and it helps most times too to prepare the minds of the people about what they are to face, or better yet, iron out ways to tackle the government to do the right thing.

Yes, the government may not be transparent to us but with the help of social media, slowly we began to understand what we ought to know that the government may hide from us. Because I believe the government should be more open and honest to its citizens, otherwise it will lost its essence as the governing body of the nation, state and community.

However, when it comes to bitcoin, the fact that they don’t see it as pro-government, then they won’t acknowledge its true potentials that could bring success to a lot of people. Thats why people should not totally rely on what the government says, instead they should be more resourceful in finding answers that would serve as the key to their life’s success and financial stability.

If you want to be happy in life and don't want to be disappointed, don't depend on anybody including the government. some people have it in their mind that their government is owing them a lot of things like funds, good education, infrastructures and jobs. Yes, it's actually the duty of the government to provide for the citizens all of the above mentioned. But still, the way government are behaving and depriving us of a lot of real facts and our rights are being denied of, one should not deeply depend on these bodies called government. If not you end up being disappointed and depressed. Your government will tell you that they are trying by all means to make sure you people as their citizens are living a very standard living. They will tell you that they know of the kind of hardship you are going through and that they are doing everything possible to alleviate these suffering. But all these things they are telling you are nothing but lies, because they continue promising you with fake promises and you will see them and their family and friends living a very expensive life and you and your family are just getting more poorer. They will make sure they don't give you any access to any opportunity that will make you live the life equal to their own living standard.

I agree with you but let's put this to considerations that bitcoin as a new developed digital currency even though it has been introduced for over a decade now, lack of education has been a loophole that the masses get losts in the digital worlds and the government with their aimlessness to bring development in the societies has acted as the bridge making it uneasy for citizens to be suitable in the crypto industries coupled with the fact that the government has made cryptocurrencies seem an illegal technology to the little mindedness of the uneducated citizens.
Although I foremost channelled this effect of the African government because they always considers their self Interest before considering the masses.
That's unlike some developed countries that the governments are willing to welcome and harbour any development with the potentials to bring good wills to the society at large.
Perhaps the displacement of the government is extremely discouraging for vulnerables and uneducated to be adoptive to crypto investments.
So likely, there could be some basic facts such selfish governments wouldn't want us to know about.

Not all countries or governments tell everything to their subjects, because if the government knows something that is not good, they will keep it a secret from their subjects to keep them calm. Because when they say negative things that can cause concern or fear, that's a big mess.

As much as possible, if there is something bad happening that their constituents should not know about, they will immediately find a solution, and when it is resolved,
they might as well tell the real story.

If I may even check believing and depending on the government news and promises to be a reality is not far from a man who is putting his egg in one basket, and egg is fragile which human life is meant to be for government in disposing information, and promises but the government has made it look like rock and have even make the citizens to remove trust in them based on how they circulate fake information to the people and make unfulfilled promises.

Government has this as strategy to hold the citizens hostage because Bitcoin and crypto currency can not be a threat to the government just that they want to be in control to the system just as everything the is been regulated by the government since crypto currency has not keep such standard where the government has full control it's now a thing to puzzle and raise some fake alarm and warning to distract the attention of citizens who find it more favorable or preferable.
Secondly in most if the banking system which the government has taken full control has it way if disappointing the citizens where many are withdrawing their trust and this serve as threat as given full attention to crypto may take away the citizens trust in them and financial control by the government.

I don't think the government is responsible for making people to know about cryptocurrency late. Do you know even till this time their are people who still don't believe in bitcoin (cryptocurrency). I can I agree that the government is been responsible for making people not to have access to cryptocurrency.  Their are people that are free to have cryptocurrency but because of ignorance they prefer to go for other investment instead of cryptocurrency.

We don't need to depend on government to know the truth, if you depend on government to know things you will never get to know any thing. One of the ways to be powerful is to have knowledge,  when their is knowledge it is impossible for government to take advantage of you from doing the right things .

I'm not of doubt to your view but if the government has wanted to tax the crypto holders as an avenue to utilize the revenues for economy and Infrastructures, then they should had made it clear and contributes to the valuability of the crypto system in order to enable citizens to comfortably rest upon their crypto investments.
They government want to control the financial digital system with a default claim of being an anti corruption so that it's not abuse but unfortunately they're the once doing the worse fraudulence but being covered with their authoritative blankets power of governance. They really don't care that much but to extort from citizens.
