Comment on Time travel and the economy

All speculation on time travel end out in either paradoxes or infinities.
You are basically wasting your time, time travel is a fantasy and not reality.
Time can be slowed, but there is no way it’s possible to travel back in time, because the past no longer exist. So there is nowhere to travel to.
In the same way the future does not exist yet, so you can’t “travel” to that either.
Time can however be somewhat suspended locally, making it seem like you are travelling to the future. But in reality you are only suspended in time locally.

You assume the past and present no longer exist. You have no proof of this.

Maybe not because you can’t prove a negative, but since there is no proof that it exist, there is no reason to believe it does.

And yet, you’ve concocted this fantasy that you call “the present,” as if such a thing could exist in a relativistic universe…

That’s not a concoction or a fantasy, but the actual reality. Or are you trying to argue the present doesn’t exist?
