“Money” is nothing but a concept. A social contract between people in agreement that it has some value. In this day and age there is absolutely nothing to back up that value other than a theory in wide spread practice.
For those worried about the man keeping track of your monies, well they already do. They can also seize or freeze it at anytime.
Paying cash for everything ain’t gonna get around that.

I have noticed a trend of venture capitalists buying up quality brands, replacing the products with cheap crap, and then bleeding it dry. Winchester, Remington, Craftsman, etc. come to mind. I suppose something similar could happen with internet sites.
It’s been going on for a long time but it does seem to be more acute now. The sole purpose being to maximize profits at the expense of quality. If every last penny cannot be squeezed out of a holding then it goes on the chopping block. If a site does not turn a profit and can’t be sold? Turn it off. Same for goods or other services.
I am also of the opinion in this day and age of rampant activism in every facet of life, “unsavory” or socially questionable entities would absolutely be acquired to shut them down.
All that being said, I’ve never heard of this outfit and don’t know what they own…but I would opine that assets ultimately controlled by the Canadian government via regulations, outright demands, and whatnot, are more vulnerable to such influences than those held by US entities. Depending on how their business is set up.

Well a wins a win but if Tennessee doesn’t make drastic improvements South Carolina will win next week. Vols should have had. no problems with UTSA SEC teams will be a challenge
It’s going to be an ugly season I’m afraid. We saw last week that SEC teams are absolutely going to be a problem.
Milton still has a rocket launcher for an arm but there has been no improvement in connecting on down field passes…since he started. That’s not entirely on him, but we are going to need to make big plays.

I was keen on watching the Memphis/ Missouri game even though I don’t approve of Missouri but WTH is wrong with that field they’re playing on? Game is unwatchable.

Yet again, Roberts leans left, but I’m surprised that Barrett did too.
Maybe they’re just letting the judicial system do its thing until the matter reaches SCOTUS for a final ruling.

I reload from time to time but it’s not a hobby so I don’t spend a lot of time on it and I’m not what you’d call an expert.
That being said, it’s not hard to do but I would recommend a single stage press and a proper set of carbide dies. Reloading is tedious enough but those Classic Lee loaders, while absolutely functional I’m sure, is like doing things 100 years ago or in Afghanistan.
Lee makes good, affordable equipment.

If you bought a new car would you start changing stuff after the first 10 miles long before it is broken in?

I highly doubt many of you have never had a pull and tug in a car, at another persons home, or somewhere public. He was in a movie theater showing porn... what does anyone expect to happen in NY city, at 2 am , in a porno theater?
Some law enforcer trying to make a name for himself was all that was... but I agree most of hollywood sold their souls for fame and came out demented.,,,
What does NYC have to do with it?

Pretty much this.
I saw a 300 lb, 6’ foot “woman” with a beard dressed up like Scarlett O’Hara in a frilly pink dress and matching hat downtown today. Yeah, things are weird enough already. Gonna take a lot more to get people interested in UFO’s.

Is anyone going to post a link of this heinous act by a cop in another state? I really don’t care, but if we’re debating LEO’s and their doings again others might enjoy jumping in with opinions.
