That’s just not true, none of it.
“The US dollar became relevant… because it allowed goods and services to be exchanged globally.”
Wrong. Any currency could enable that (look back at Spanish doubloons) the US dollar filled that niche more recently because coming out of ww2 the us had a relatively untouched territory and a monster of an economy that the rest of the west couldn’t provide otherwise. The US filled an economic vacuum by virtue of good fortune. They then acted over the next century to capitalize on that situation. There’s was nothing special about the dollar that made this a unique achievement.
Oil was sold in OPEC dollars because at the time we made them, not because the dollar was unique or anything compared to all other currencies.
“However as I have predicted debt…”
Again wrong and gonna stop you right there chief. Debt existed well before this issue and other counties will continue to encourage specific levels of debt well after this issue frankly because you again wrong and there’s a much better understanding of economics than what your spouting.
The US isn’t in this position because of the existence of debt they are in this position because of reckless actors (almost always in the GOP) spending a trillion on Iraq, or taking up the mercantilist perspective of a thalidomide baby writ large.
This is the by product of people who don’t understand interwoven economics, don’t add to that ignorance and blame it going in to debt while ignoring that the us debt has existed far longer than any of these issues.

NO.
Their votes make the current world worse.
You should want people to not be impoverished, hence advocate against them voting for impoverishment. Stupidity voting stupidly is bad, you saying “but regardless….” Is actually worse…
“Let people vote stupidly; you should let them…” is the dumbest possible take.

You will not find good bbq. Take the L and move on…
You will find the greatest cuisine ever witnessed on this planet depending on your taste.
A clay pot in Morocco, a grandma’s house in Toledo, a random eel cooked up in Tunisia…
Just as good as byob bbq in Austin TX.

Dood it’s all in your thread. The last word is your action and this is the internet. No one will see what you just said unless they drill down through me or your stupidity… like damn do not understand how much stupid you are committing to the machine?
You just told the world how little you know how all this works.
- Comment on A Tale of Two Greens 1 month ago:
Right! Exactly.
- Comment on A Tale of Two Greens 1 month ago:
You make no sense. You’re describing imaginary people.
Sorry man. Go to bed.

Gotta love how there’s only one thread here and it’s calling out the “red necked” moron…
- Comment on A Tale of Two Greens 1 month ago:
I have very plainly made the argument and you’ve shown that you’re too stupid to have this convo. Your last reply absolutely proved my point! Everyone can read your comments and see where this is going…
Say plainly to everyone how little you understand what’s going on….
You just did but one more time for the seats in the back…
- Comment on A Tale of Two Greens 1 month ago:
Thank you for making my point for me. You’re doing the “Lord’s work” by just being you and letting everyone know your limits.
- Comment on A Tale of Two Greens 1 month ago:
You’ve exposed what? Go to bed.
The only thing you’ve exposed isn’t about me, it’s about your own issues.
Everyone can see it. It’s not about me it’s an obvious showing of everything youre inadequate of… this post is an obvious search point for your limitations. The whole world can google your language to illustrate an incels’ point.
You’ve shown that… You kicked it off… stop trying to act like other people demonstrate those details. Your words keep describing them and you do nothing but drive a moron’s point into the ground while whining about comments.
- Comment on A Tale of Two Greens 1 month ago:
Nah. I’ll edit as necessary, showing a better argument and better phrasing to achieve it. Look at any comment history possible and all you’ll see is an incremental build up of the same argument that shows you for the simpleton that you already are…
- Comment on A Tale of Two Greens 1 month ago:
Compared to this? Ok
- Comment on A Tale of Two Greens 1 month ago:
Not karma, intelligence and with that in mind you should keep talking…
My investment so far has been showing everyone how fucking dumb you are. It’s so obvious take my involvement as casual comments. Feel free to keep acting the same. Everyone can see your stupidity; such that it makes a good snapshot. It crystallizes everything.
- Comment on A Tale of Two Greens 1 month ago:
Love how your comment is in the negative before I even noticed it happened…
This looks like the hill to die on, where your comment already died on. That’s nothing I have to bother with…
In case you can’t understand, your comments are being viewed as negative and useless. So what hill do you want to talk about?
- Comment on A Tale of Two Greens 1 month ago:
They were calling out how stupid you sound and how flimsy your argument is. Your initial comment was the weakest sauce imaginable and you should be made well aware of how dumb it sounds. For your own sake as other people will look at your text and absolutely comment the same conclusion.
I’m sorry you keyed into a single term from OP like “triggered”, but please be aware you sound like an idiot, you made an idiot’s comment and those types of comments are worth ridicule.
Please understand how plain I can be with this text, no confusion, no mistakes… your comment was that fucking stupid and everyone noticed.

Yea I can dig it. All the more reason for the mayor to have a backbone and force the issue. And a Streisand effect won’t matter in DC given what you say as the area is saturated. Meanwhile any mention nationally has as much travel as DEI right now. The story should be the fight not capitulation.
