    I believe you're wrong on 2 counts: 1. Government already knows what's in your bank account because they know where you work and how much your job pays. If you're American and living abroad, disclosure requirements are even more detailed, from FINCEN 114 by the taxpayer and bank triggers when...

    Yes, but that's not how history is read. Alexandre was but one of many who conquered the world and its riches. The history of nation building is one of slaughter to the top job, and still is in some parts of the world. Modern Europe is a model of intellectual recognition that wars are barbaric...

    BTC has a limited supply and is expected to stabilize as that limit is reached. I admit, I know nothing about monetary mechanisms and policies. I like blockchain tech primarily from a logistics and supply chain angle where I can see clear optimizations.

    Thanks for that article and the ammo it provides me for my argument. When reading the Right (Sacks clearly is), these poor blue collar truckers only wanted to express peacefully their disagreement with the government of Canada. The level of hypocrisy is over the top. Facts are, those truckers...

    Digital currency has been with us for many years already and it's use has been increasing steadily and organically. By that I mean that consumers have adopted it as the most convenient way to transact. Removing coins and paper money from circulation is the next evolutionary step and the...

    I'm invested in crypto and BTC but, unlike many who view BTC as the alternative to fiat or an escape from government regulations, I see its purpose more alongside gold, but dematerialized. I invest in cryptos primarily as a speculator looking for a "quick" return, with little commitment to the...

    There she goes (McDonalds)

    He is expressing emotions, not logic. Seems like the woke world is threatening his comfortable existence.

    There she goes (McDonalds)

    I think with hindsight we can see these 2 US corporations were used as propaganda tools to represent an idealized America, the irony being those corporations have made Americans sick and fat.

    There she goes (McDonalds)

    I'm not so sure about your assessment. It's definitely in the interest of the white world to emphasize the home grown divisions within the Chinese world and support those Chinese who believe in democratic principles. Yes, Taiwan is not a recognize country at the UN due to China’s pressure, but...

    EV Battery storage

    It's a super hyped company being pumped and dumped 2-3 times a year on news of so called solid state breakthroughs. They are among the top actors in the field but far from having a working EV battery.

    There she goes (McDonalds)

    For the US and the West, this war is a PR dream to show China the consequences of their attempt to invade Taiwan.

    EV Battery storage

    I traded QS last year and lost mucho money. It's a pump and dump stock, that will go up 10% and drop just a quickly days later for many months

    Objective Value - no, seriously.

    I could challenge the notion of objective value by offering aspirational value as an alternative. Both TSLA and the cryptos are great examples of the latter while they'll drive you to heavy drinking searching for the first.

    Will Russia invade Ukraine

    It appears the article had merit as this is now the key to ending the war presented in all media. It's an interesting situation. On one hand Moscow has shown willingness to inflict far greater damage and death to achieve its goals. On the other, Ukraine has shown the capacity to challenge...

    Objective Value - no, seriously.

    Please don't take my short liners too seriously. Your questions reminded me of my graduate school poli sci classes many decades ago and made me chuckle a bit. What I did learn over the years is that by the time we are sufficently satisfied with our analysis to implement, the paradigm has...
