Why?

I idolize TJ.

One of the very few figures in all of history I consider a hero.

Greed for the Chinese markets leads to the US's downfall.  Maybe that'll be history's story.

Yeah I've always thought there was something inately bullshittish about that breed of "globalisation".
Westerners pensions are spent to build up a maniac state.They put people on the dole.And leave goods to be produced the other side of the world by rice eating idiots ie a country with no ability in manufacture.

There's nothing wrong with foreign investment.But what has been lacking since the Dotcom era has been investment in the established nations.And investing in China is just investing in an enemy - military, economic and ideologically.

Why?

Copper content!

Uh, are you the new fyrenza?

Uh, are you the new fyrenza?

Are you the new zoomie?

I'm not the new zoomie, but I think you're the new fyre cause you're making no sense.

In your scenario it's the end of the world, right? I can't understand why copper content would matter, cause it's like, the end of the world and stuff.

I was really hoping we'd be able to start up the question game again. 

I'm not talking about the absolute end of everything in creation.  I'm talking about meteor strike/zombie attack/viral plague/alien invasion kinds of end of the world.  The kind of end where some folks still survive.

See?  Perfectly Sensible.

Ohhh yeah, cause copper would be much more valuable than say, water or food right?

You know, in the alternate universe you're living in!

I idolize TJ.

I agree, and those two quotes are a fantastic example.  I've read two biographies about him.

He's even awesome all the way down to his political flaws -- jungle fever.

Ohhh yeah, cause copper would be much more valuable than say, water or food right?

I apologize for not listing EVERYTHING i plan on picking up in my alternate universe.  Let me build you a goddamn grocery list real quick, so that we can get this straightened right the fuck up.

Again, sorry for the confusion!

It's just a thought, but I'll bet you could get those half dollars for real cheap after the apocalypse.

Man, i'm stoned and i get it

If there's ever an end of the world scenario where I still have a few days to do things like go to banks and such, I'm going to look for all of the half-dollar coins I can find.

What if the coins all get contaminated by being left where they are?  (ReadThat: Become radio-active)

Or you have to wade through the bio-hazards of a bunch of dead bodies lying about?

Uh, are you the new fyrenza?

Man, i'm stoned and i get it

Well Fuck...   :'(

It's more fun with pics

I spent a bunch of the 40% silver old Kennedy's on beer. I was hoping they would go back out into circulation and a few other people would have a chance to collect them.

A pipe dream I suppose.

goddam you NZD... down! down!
