I wouldn't buy before sub-230 again. Patiently waiting on cash right now.

[Fatman3001]

Good morning Bitcoinland.

Took back half of yesterday's loss I see. Over $240 again today?

Still basically sideways, no moon, no double digits.

Isn't waiting fun?

Still waiting for oblivion

I'll pick up another two or three coins next week.

It's confirmed, oblivion will arrive on April 19.

How come you canucks are so much more chill than those disloyal to The Crown down south?

I think it has to do with patiently waiting for winter to be over every year.

As for disloyalty, don't tell our southern neighbors that. They prefer to think of George Washington as a patriot rather than a traitor who was disloyal to his king, and Benedict Arnold as a traitor rather than a loyal subject of George III. Go figure.

I worked for a hostel a long time ago and spoke about politics to both americans and canadians, and it's weird how uptight americans are about politics. Canadians had no problem with it. I kind of think of canadians as americans without a personality disorder.

Did that yesterday.

Buy the dips. Build the stash.

So we have a slow, low volume, "return to trend" bleed, a nice tweezer bottom, shorts still riding near ATH, and people waiting in cash ready to buy "cheap coins"

Something tells me this is a recipe for a pretty tasty cake

Let me guess.

You're British?

If you are right I'll marry you and have your babies.

Norwegian. Don't get me wrong, I like americans. They're just a bit... binary. It gets to be intense sometimes.

After spending several weeks in the US once, my flight transferred through Canada and I spent a few hours wandering. I couldn't quite figure out why everyone seemed happy and helpful. It was a very strange experience.

American politics seems to make residents far, far angrier than anywhere else and they can barely bring themselves to associate with those at other ends of the spectrum.

You see people on city-data wanting to move to 'liberal' towns. What the fuck? In Europe you just move where it looks nice. Politics doesn't register.

Even though I'm not a socialist myself I think it probably would be healthy for them to have a proper and visible socialist party influencing society.

Maybe it has to do with having a basically 2-party system. That tends to polarize. Those not in power tend to feel disenfranchised and resentful.

Minority governments on the other hand, tend to build consensus.

Just my 2 satoshis.

Well, Britain's effectively two parties and the current coalition is the first in a long time. You don't get people frothing at the mouth at each other.

Having said that, the most rabidly right wing Brit would probably be regarded as a commie pinko begging to be relieved of their life by their American counterpart.

You noticed that too?

What most countries consider basic public healthcare is considered to be an affront to liberty, democracy, capitalism, and the American Way by many Americans.

Wasting zillions of dollars on the military, prisons, law enforcement, surveillance of citizens, and defense of corporations is OK though.

Absolutely baffling isn't it. Believing in a small state but a gigantic military industrial complex with tendrils reaching every corner of the world

Rational balanced opinions are viewed with suspicion. Polarisation seems to be the theme for politicians and citizens these days. Its just that the extremes make the most noise.

But despite the crap they have to live under from their 'government', America seems to have a higher proportion of basically decent people than most other countries. I've experienced random acts of kindness in remote West Virginian owns, and rough New York suburbs that would never have happened in many other counties on the world.

The difference between UK and US politics is that UK people dont believe the crap their politicians tell them.   (but who else you gonna vote for? Farrage? Ugh.)

I've seen no shortage of US political ads that would have a British politician laughed out of their job. I'm usually laughing too much to put my foot through the TV, which is what should be done.

American people on the ground are by and large lovely. I don't really understand where this air of darkness that hangs in the background starts and finishes.

It's the old 'them' problem. 'They' are to blame for everything and there must be millions of them, but no one thinks they are one of 'them' and they don't ever seem to have met one.

Ah well. It's still an incredible place to visit and I'm still thankful to head back to knackered old commie Europe at the end of it.

Not to mention that they subsidize just about every industry there is. The US would struggle to fulfill the terms of the EU free market.

And when they discuss policy that is commonplace in just about every other country, they start talking about outlandish what ifs and slippery slopes. Other countries just look to where it's been done before.

The gays in the military debate was pure entertainment gold. Why check the experiences of the dutch and the swedes when you can barf out every brain fart you have to an international audience.
