The reality of impending economic collapse

[themadscientist]

It takes $.02 to make a penny. It takes $.11 to make a nickel. When are people going to figure this s*** out?

The more I think about it, the less the cost of how much currency costs to make has anything to do with anything, really. We could go on about how much all versions of physical currency costs money, but a hundred dollar bill does not cost $100 to make.

I especially think it has less to do with anything considering it's source, also.

Precedent has been set. Kick the can down the road and then blame it all on Republicans for hating the poor and loving rich people. All the liberals I know have 50-bazillion excuses why all issues we have today are due to either the GOP, Bush, or the free market screwing everyone over.

Those 'pubs sure have good ideas like letting private companies take over for FEMA tho, right?

It would be impossible to do worse than FEMA already does, but back on topic.

I dont expect competence from the GOP.

Sorry, sorry. lol

I don't expect competence from the government at large, I was just commenting on who is continually to blame for these issues via the Dems and mainstream media talking heads.

Unlike the Dem push for Government to manage everything?
