Perhaps, but with the economy and environment destroyed, he's gonna need his guns more than ever.

Our hope is that he's going for a culture victory, which would pretty much mean a continuation of the status quo. If he opts for domination, we're screwed.tgb wrote:Easy for you to say. Just wait until he comes for America Lite.tjg_marantz wrote: Oh god, this is hilarious.

Trouble in paradise.
Whether you agree with him politically, or not, Evan McMullin is a good follow, along with Bill Krystol. Krystol is a conservative, a real one. And getting out of the echo chamber and following/listening to (real) conservatives is something all should do.

There are over 165 thousand $1000 bills in circulation. I had no idea.NickAragua wrote:Well, it depends. I'm sure they're perfectly qualified to address the pressing rich person issue of "do I wipe my ass with a hundred dollar bill, really treat myself and go for a thousand or slum it and just go with a twenty?"
That was pretty foolish. In retrospect, he should have gone for $20s so that he could do the cool metal briefcase thing.LordMortis wrote:I remember my father bought a boat with 10 $1000 bills when I was very young. A decision I bet he still regrets. That was the only time I've seen $1000 bills.

500 $20 bills would probably look pretty silly in a briefcase. That's only a couple inches of money (2.15" assuming impossibly flat, tightly stacked bills)ImLawBoy wrote:That was pretty foolish.

I guess he'd have to go with $20s on the surface, and then $1s or $5s underneath. The hassle would be worth it to place the briefcase on the table, spin it around, and flip the latches to reveal all that cash.coopasonic wrote:500 $20 bills would probably look pretty silly in a briefcase.

I don't really remember. He bought it so he and grandpa (... and the family...) could go trolling on Lake Erie. He then put a lot of blood, sweat, tears, money, and gas into keeping it running until Grandpa died. Then it sat in the back yard. I don't remember it leaving the back yard but it must have because they no longer own that house. I assume he sold it and sold it for considerably less than $10,000 but I don't actually have a memory of that. I fear I might be a replicant now.Enough wrote:Did he end up selling it?LordMortis wrote:I remember my father bought a boat with 10 $1000 bills when I was very young.

Some of the most conservative members of Congress say they are ready to vote for a budget that would — at least on paper — balloon the deficit to more than $1 trillion by the end of the decade, all for the sake of eventually repealing the Affordable Care Act.
In a dramatic reversal, many members of the hard-line House Freedom Caucus said Thursday they are prepared later this month to support a budget measure that would explode the deficit and increase the public debt to more than $29.1 trillion by 2026, figures contained in the budget resolution itself...
...The collective shrug from other conservatives is the latest evidence that Paul’s protest would be a familiar, lonely one. His floor speech attacking the budget measure for making no attempts at deficit reduction — it projects a $9 trillion increase in the debt by 2026 — was preempted by statements from Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.), Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), pledging to vote for the resolution anyway.

You are giving him more credit than I am. I'm expecting something more like "Professor missing" in the respective local papers. He doesn't strike me as the type that would be satisfied with just arresting someone.

Yeah, it really depends on which school of thought he subscribes to. If he's into the classics then yeah, pretty much "disappearing" someone is the way to go. If he's into the more modern "good public relations" style of dictatorship, then it's far superior to discredit your opponents than it is to just make them disappear.TheMix wrote:You are giving him more credit than I am.
