In "Fiat Food" by Matthew Lysiak another gargantuan scam is revealed and the reasons behind are explained clearly.

"Bitcoin: Separation of Money and State" by SatsJoseph provides a nice overview about the topic and references a lot of further readings for bitcoiners that are interested in the topic of separation of money and state. It also includes funny memes and the "Ten Commandments" for bitcoiners ;-)
