It will NEVER happen.

Simple reason, the Gun Banners will SEE, the gun carrying people will have LESS Crime.

And the gang banger/drug selling/car stealing/looting/and on and on and on people the numbers will be astronomical !

Nope, Can't have the TRUTH,
that a Armed society,
is a polite society.

So every time, a 'person', says they want to BAN GUNS, (and saying they have one themselves). And I call them a Ultra Liberal, Dumb F ucking idiotic, Fairy Dust Sprinkling, Socialist.

I am complaining ?

OK, Got it !

Back to the topic…..I can’t believe this charade will go on. Joe’s gotta go and he’s going to come to that conclusion sooner rather than later. Someone’s got to convince him that he stole the diamonds and got away with it so get out while the getting good. He’ll have plenty of lame duck time to issue pardons and do a few last minute Presidental Executive Orders aka dictatorship orders, before he goes to sit on the beach full time.

A Harris/Buttiplug ticket is a possibility and it’s no absolute certainty Trump wins against that. An incompetent woman of color and an incompetent queer sounds like a perfect couple for leftist, but they’ll lose some yellow dog actual Democrats.

His withdrawal is inevitable. There is an almost a zero chance he’ll win the general election.

Covid. He can use it as an excuse and find some way to blame Trump. Don’t know if it will resonate with anyone but might make him feel better about it.
I feel like his wife might be the one to step in and stop it.

 I'd say that since many consider 1971 as the introduction of US Fiat currency the country has done quite well given it NEVER works.

 54 years and we are still waiting for it to collapse and have gold come back as the tangible backing.  Can't wait for my local bank to need warehouses upon warehouses of gold and physical paper bills just to handle the weekly amounts.  

 I'm sure no fees will be added when they need to drop millions into warehousing cash over acres of land.  I assume tellers will have salt-shakers with gold dust to cash out the tangibles under $500.  Don't sneeze.

 

I don't care what You think about it. History is the arbiter. Not you. It's never worked.
You satisfied?

 I also see hypocrisy of humans claiming "the younger generation" is lazy and don't have a work ethic, combined with the consistent advancement of technology and economy.  Trump had record economic growth.

 People work from home, have more PTO than ever, humans have literally complained about how the younger generation doesn't work as hard, has no work ethic etc. yet we still seem to have a country using fiat currency.  I know high school kids that make hundreds of dollars a week just mentioning local businesses on their gaming podcasts.  Prosperity exists, you just can't do the same jobs your grandparents had or you will be left behind.

 The main thing for me and fiat currency is where the hell are we supposed to put all this tangible backing?  Back when PG indicated banks should hold physical cash I did an estimate on how much space just the local Credit Union would need.  They would need either a 14 story city block high rise, or 12 warehouses out at the Industrial Park... but then they wouldn't have "cash on hand".

 That's just one small bank.  I do think all fiat currency will fail eventually, but I think holding tangible resource will fail much much faster.
