Bitcoin is a waste of energy and full of bot manipulation. I would not trust it one second. The only benefit it really has is it's not govement controlled (yet).

I hope not. That's an economic disaster waiting to happen.
Yeah, things need to be done bit by bit.
First bit: taxes. Gotta raise 'em at SOME point, especially for the people so rich that they really don't need LESS taxes.
Second bit: obliterate all the scummy loopholes businesses use to either pay people below minimum wage or pay them little but keep them working a ton (i.e. the bullshit that's become known as "Walmart Full-Time").
Third bit: minimum wage boost.

Well not exactly, because when the "print money" they don't actually print money. It might not increase the circulation.
But it does have an effect.



Right & if all currencies become screwed then less people will want to buy bitcoin and it's price will decrease because it has no inherent value. Most people invested in bitcoin because of the bubble.

Technically new Bitcoin are constantly being mined. If I had any then I'd be selling now, the people predicting it will go to silly money are probably doing that themselves but in the meantime they need everyone to hold on for those ridiculous levels (I'd at least take out my original investment plus some, so I guaranteed a profit).
Bitcoin is too volatile. Its up down up down

There's a limit on 21 million that can be mined. We are 80% of the way their. Once its all mined it will tap out.

Only one term. Lost both houses during that term. Impeached twice and looking to be removed convicted too. You guys really know how to pick 'em.
Trump will be remembered at home and abroad as the worst US President in history. Worse than Johnson and Buchanan, which is stunning considering how awful they were.

The next Presidential historians survey is due out in 2022. Trump will finish in last place guar-an-teed, which is where he'll likely remain for the rest of our lives.

Republicans just don't have a clue how to choose Presidents anymore. Want to fix that? Then don't nominate Ted Cruz or Don Jr. in 2024. Find the next Eisenhower -- not the next conspiracy peddling mouth breather.

It’s over he has finally left the Whitehouse for the last time

Donald and Melania leave behind a White House in dire need of a deep clean after Covid was allowed to run riot through the West Wing and head for Marine One, taking them on to Maryland before they jet out for Florida.

Today the rest of the world stops laughing at America and we offer a huge welcome to the 46th President of the United States of America Joe Biden

Would have been funnier if they had to drag him out while having his tantrum but oh well.
what? he didn't cry like a baby and got dragged out of the office by heavy armored military officers as i expected?
did he not even screamed how unfair the voting was?

This is another way of saying 'my fringe views should be valued as much as normal, moderate views'.
Why shouldn´t they? Truth is independent of majorities.
It is not even fringe. A lot of people do not buy the official 9/11 story. Yet wikipedia smeared people (including historians and scientists) for asking questions.

I may not be available to post before this threads closes as I'll be working, but I just wanted to take a second to wish President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris a big warm welcome HOME! CONGRATULATIONS! I'm glad America has finally found normalcy. Glad to see Former Vice President Mike Pence join to inaugurate Joe Biden.

Almost forgot, to all you Republicans out there.... Time to heal the wounds! :rofl2::rofl::rofl2:

Speaking of not-even-fringe conspiracy theories:

34% of Republicans believe the pandemic aka "PLAN-demic" was deliberately planned:
https://www.courthousenews.com/pew-says-plandemic-theory-sowed-doubt-in-25-of-us/

44% of Republicans believe that Bill Gates is plotting to use a mass COVID-19 vaccination campaign as a pretext to implant microchips in billions of people and monitor their movements:
https://news.yahoo.com/new-yahoo-ne...ght-may-hamper-vaccine-efforts-152843610.html

56% of Republicans believe that QAnon, a far-right conspiracy theory, is mostly or partly true:
https://www.forbes.com/sites/tommyb...theory-is-partly-or-mostly-true-survey-finds/

70% of Republicans say the "deep state" is trying to overthrow Trump:
https://today.yougov.com/topics/pol...mericans-favor-impeachment-want-trump-removed


72% percent of registered Republican voters still doubt President Obama's citizenship:
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/20...partisan-divide-over-birther-question-n627446

77% of Republicans believe there was widespread fraud in the presidential election:
https://www.courant.com/politics/hc...0201210-pcie3uqqvrhyvnt7geohhsyepe-story.html

83% of Republicans polled after the 2020 election said they didn't believe Joe Biden won:
https://www.businessinsider.com/maj...elieve-biden-won-election-gallup-poll-2020-12


I guess we need to take these conspiracy theories seriously because "a lot of people" believe this garbage? And then there's this:

90% of Republicans trust Trump to give them accurate information about Covid-19:

I'll have my "last, I promise, I won't have just ONE more witty jab" (yes, I absolutely will) post in this thread with a similar air to how I started in it:
Mister Trump... you're fired.
Viva la Biden, and may the Don's abhorrent legacy be erased from this earth.
