gold is not hard to counterfeit.
 

Gold is impossible to counterfeit as its an element. 

People try to make fake bars/coins that look similar but there are always give away signs if you have half a clue.

Fake coins always lack the correct detail.

some politicians and billionaires are involved to this type of crime. as I've heard in some video on youtube bushes are involved to some satanic ritual as they are accused a member of Illuminati and this could be very disturbing. and maybe there's a politician who is involved to child abuse or what we called pedophilia and maybe it is Bill Clinton as I have seen in some article saying that Clinton just flew on sex offender's jet named Jeffrey Epstein and this jet is named as Lolita Express.

its really not as bad as they make it out to be.
there has been ALOT of progress in fighting global warming, and reducing our impact on the environment.
and there is new promising technologies that will gr8ly help "save the planet" ( as if the plant needed saving... WE are that ones that need saving )

The California Republic will quit the US dollar system and switch to Bitcoins.

LOL. No.

These two things (California government and Bitcoin) do not mix.

I wish you guys all the best though. The smaller and more local the government, the better it can represent the desires of the people.

If if doesn't work out, the entire population of California can just move to Canada and I can finally surf the west coast!

Bitcoin and government. That's a new thing  that we have never seen. Could it be reality?
Yes!
actually
Bitcoin will BE the government soon.
look at the current elections going on in bitcoin land Core Vs the_other_guys
what we have is true democracy, a living breathing system of governance.

thats the future my friend

so i've been watching US news for the past 2 weeks
and its very clear that FOX news is biased to the right Big time.
and CNN is clearly biased to the left Big time.

why is that?

Nah, declaring bankruptcy several times is not called being an economy specialist. United Stateseans keep thinking that.

The fact is, had he retired early, he would be worth twice what he is worth right now.

Because you guys think you are "anti-establishment" or something by going against religion despite the fact that you are probably within the majority at this point

more like 15%

but if you only look at the west and lower age group like 18-35, ill bet your right about 50%


no one in this thread has said anything to indicate that we choose to be Atheists because we wanted to be cool.

Religion doesn't make sense anymore. we can now get our values and morals from watching startrek, starwars, and ofc The Simpsons.  Cheesy

what is the nature of the inverse? what is our part in it?
the inverse is a big giant blob of goo, an elastic solid.
humanity's job is to go explore the blob of goo looking for things that might be harmful to us or the blob and eliminate it.
if humanity fails to grow up, and die or someshit, fear not, there are billions of others ( aka aliens ) and most will succeed.

I grew up in an atheist house. My parent's never forced their beliefs on us, and all 3 of my brothers have been to a fellowship of Christian athletes service a time or 2 in high school, how ever this was just for social reason, to see friends etc. So none of us where really introduced to it.
All my bothers and I went to college for different fields I'm science, and I think learning more helped to solidify the fact God isn't really, only a human construct to explain things that can't be explained now.
What has really hit it home for me has been my career as a firefighter. And all of us have had a few bad calls, but when you see kids die, I believe there is absolutely no divine intervention. I hear people say "everything is for a reason" "God has a plan" well if he's so damn powerful he could sure fix his shitty plan, and if he loves us so much I cannot see why he'd let a 7 year old be the only causality in a van accident while riding with his family of six.

god does exist. go deep into the woods far from city light and look up into the night sky. all that you see is only a tiny tiny tiny fraction of god.

is it any wonder he is oblivious to our existence?

2036  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Freedom of speech was lost the day it was invented, and humanity is doomed. on: November 15, 2016, 04:46:10 AM
lets say.
high school class of of which 2 kids are black.
some dumb ass kid says " ya well thats because that guy was a dumbass nigger "
something like this has happened in my highschool ( back in 1998! lol )
and what followed was fair.
every single other kids turned around and gave this guy the dirtiest look, and one of the kids shamed him saying somthing like " wow did you just say that? man you're so STUPID!"
the kid turned red, felt great shame and understood what he did was wrong.

sure this kid probably still said "nigger" from time to time, but he never used "dumb nigger" as an argumentative point, ever again i'll tell you that.

speech is self-regulating, and it is my belief that if we attempt to regulate speech on a large scale, this will have profound negative consequences to society.
2037  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Freedom of speech was lost the day it was invented, and humanity is doomed. on: November 15, 2016, 04:23:01 AM
at first we had a "fear culture" and this "Freedom of speech" thing was not invented but we had it.

in a nutshell, it worked like this.

you could say whatever the fuck you wanted, example you could start telling everyone you know "our king is a fat pig" there was no law against this, not really, not specifically. of course if you said this to everyone you know its likely the king would hear about it and have you killed. that was fair. That was "fear culture", say or do the wrong thing and risk death or some punishment, or end up in hell or somthing.... your FEAR of the consequences of your actions, kept you inline.


fast forward to 1998. ( the peek of cultural evolution )

and we had done away with fear, and replaced it with a "honor & shame culture", freedom of speech had been invented. Everyone said what ever the fuck they wanted without consequences! NOT! In 1998 If you said " I think ALL black poeple should be locked up. " its more then likely ALL your peers ( regardless of race ) would look at you funny and start putting you to shame. " you are a racist retard " , " thats the stupidest thing i ever heard ", " i think we should lock YOU up **point and lol** " would be the likely response. while if you said " I find it hard to explain why such a high % of blacks end up in jail" you would have been honored, by sparking an interesting discussion. That is a "honor & shame culture", your words or actions are either shamed or honored by your peers, and thats what keeps you inline.


But somthing happened then we did NOT indent. we became a "politically correct cultural".

you see we ALWAYS had  freedom of speech, we have always been free to say whatever the fuck we wanted, ONLY the consequences to saying the things you chose to say, changed. "freedom of speech" should have been called "freedom FROM speech", because the minute we created "freedom of speech" in the rule book, we started to discuss how far we could take this law, could anyone really say ANYTHING? the minute we created  freedom of speech, what we actually did was draw a line for how far someone could take free speech.

TODAY 2016

we have a whole GENERATION of cry babies, who are afraid to use many Many MANY words and topics because of this.

Today simply saying  " I find it hard to explain why such a high % of blacks end up in jail "  will get you shamed! not because anyone took personal offense, ( even if the room was filled with white poeple, you'd get a negative reaction from this statement admit it! )
why? because in a "politically correct cultural" you are shamed for saying or doing anything that ANYONE would take offence to.

let's review, in "shame culture" you say somthing that is offensive you will be shamed, in "politically correct cultural" if you cast shame on anyone, you are intrun shamed for casting shame!

Get it?

if i say " rosie o'donnell is fat " in 1995, rosie o'donnell is shamed, and thats the end of it.

if i say " rosie o'donnell is fat " TODAY, poeple call it "discrimination" and or I am labeled "sexist and insensitive" Huh ok maybe thats true  Lips sealed

basically, saying anything politically incorrect. (politically incorrect :: adjective 1. potentially offensive to a particular group of people) brings you shame!

we are FUCKED!

why?

because, shame is nessary! it is the mechanism by which we shape our opinions.

pretty soon poeple will start thinking things like "being fat is OK!" because no one is shaming that opinion because That would be politically incorrect!

DOOM!


even now, i'm not sure i should post this... because some words i use will most likely offend some poeple.  Undecided ?sorry... none of that was Meant to be offensive to anyone, just trying to explain an idea(which might be totally invalid?)...

Some people mistakenly understood the Freedom of Speech, the Constitution guaranteed freedom of speech and expression to the citizens. Democracies have long grappled with the issue of the limits, if any, to place on the expression of ideas and beliefs, The dilemma here was others are taking for granted the freedom of speech without even thinking of the damage or chaos that they might create. protection of free speech would not protect a man in falsely shouting fire in a theater and causing a panic. Is that Freedom of speech really means at all? just to say nor do watever you want?

here's my argument tho,

you can ALLOW "a man in falsely shout fire in a theater and causing a panic", you can!
because, society will deal with that guy by shaming him!
" look there goes the ASSHOLE that disrupted everyone's day by doing somthing stupid. "

imagine he did that every sunday
how many sunday would it take till he got his ass kicked!?

he could do it once and someone could SUE him!
you dont need to techinal break the law to get sued, anyone can get sued for anything, and then be judged by his peers.

Trump said on 60 minutes that he will not accept the 400,000$ /year salary that comes with the job.

" i think by law i have to take it, so i'll take 1$ / year "

Trump Saved the USA 2million dollars.

BAM!

you've been trumped!
This is pretty huge salary per year and if his not going to accept it maybe his going to donate it into charity or maybe his going to corrupt president and he will get more money if his going to corrupt his country and not going to better again sad for america but i have trust on trump Smiley
Such a PR campaign may impress uneducated people. People who know how to think will ask the question what a fool refuses the money. Than it compensates them to yourself.

educated  != smart.
refusing the money is a gesture of goodwill.
if trump was the fool the media makes him out to be, he would have demanded a pay incress. that would be more inline with the made up person the media makes him out to be( an asshole ).


@Sponsoredby15

to accept the money and then promising to "give it away" to some worthy organization or whatever, goes against his principles.

the general idea is that government does way to much of this already, they have so much power, that everyone is lining up to suck the government's dick for favors, governments like getting there dick sucked so much they are willing to sign bad deals.
get it?

not taking a salary necessarily means the gov. is going to need to borrow less money in order for it to function, which in and of itself is plenty.
