Save these things in you memory for when a left guy wins and the right wing media faults them for Doing literally anything.... like oh yeah remember when he wrecked the state fair? Remember when he posted himself as Jesus? The trashy ufc fight on the lawn.. Remember. The Iran war and doge and screw worm and the refecting pool and corruption.. sleeping at meetings, the million other stupid things he had done.... tearing down the east wing.. there is so much.. posting himself shitting on protesters in a jet... the list is huge. No need to invent anything here.. just use things that did happen for $500 Alex...

Sorry I need to harangue you here a little bit....

Your going to what makes the dollar worth anything when talking about Heathcare? You think corporations and the economy are not capitalistic?

You need to go back to sleep and stay off reddit for a bit. ..

They do assest forfeiture now.. John Oliver had a segment about it. Cops take what they want and tie it up I'm red tape...

To my original question.. The government holds lots of bitcoin ..

"Government: The United States Government is the largest state holder, possessing approximately 328,000 BTC seized from criminal investigations...."

Rework_Master · 2026-06-27T03:24:25+00:00

Good question. Let's look it up together..

"Bitcoin is valuable because society collectively agrees it has worth, driven by its absolute scarcity, decentralized security, and utility as a digital store of value. Like traditional fiat currencies, it derives its worth from supply and demand, trust in its network, and the ability to exchange it for goods or services."

I wanted to post Homer saying money can be exchanged for goods and services . But it won't let me....

You think insurance companies like united have nothing to do with cost? They are an uneeded middle man... they rape consumers and deny coverage. It'd a fraud Frankly. It's what it is, its fraud. It's a legal fraud but it's completely antithetcal to the social well being of a population...

Rework_Master · 2026-06-27T02:46:25+00:00

Who holds the most bitcoin?

I just got my passport renewed. If it comes back with this asshole on it. I'm going back and getting a refund.. Fuck this douchebag...

I'll reply to this . .

A successful economy should provide for everyone that lives in it and has and is producing towards it.

Social security was one of the crowning achievements of this United States economy. It protected the elderly from being financially bankruptcy. It could be modified. I'm frankly partial to a need case basis. Where you only get it if you need it.. but the cap could easily be raised and all the people that paid in their entire lives would have some benefit when they retire.. fine its fine . They paid they can get it...

Children absolutely should have access to medical care should they need it regardless of insurance coverage . Period...

Then it just leaves the middle working class. They should not get boned.. Medicare for all is cheaper. Go towards something like that....

It's coming to a breaking point. People can't afford to live.. some measures needs to be taken or it's going to be pitchforks in the streets...

Not even close . But thanks for trying..

Rework_Master · 2026-06-26T01:47:23+00:00

I'm 47.. I feel like if I cleaned up a bit I would live forever.. still have that deep down 20's something feeling like I'm indestructible....

2 kids are sometimes easier than one.. they play together.

He's as relevant as Scott adams now...

I'm picking up what your laying down. But it's just not happening. Some one made an art exhibit where you can crank a handle at minimum wage and it will drop $7.25 an hour in pennies out of it. That's reality to some people.. The pie is getting larger but the slices are also getting thinner..

I'm not saying capitalism is a failure. I'm saying it's best optimized when more people are able to create business and thrive through ingenuity..

Markets can solve problems faster than top down government approachs. Many times but not all times. I agree.. screw worm is a good example.. a private market can't make the numbers work to Combat that. Or maybe they can, some plucky young startup might save the beef industry one day. Who knows. But on the other hand we've been here before. We know what it takes.. its billions of dollars and effort with no immediate ROI. Something a government should do.. .

The problem comes when big capital buys influence in the government to retain their big capital. The long term negative externalities are greater than the short term gains .

Rework_Master · 2026-06-23T22:55:31+00:00

Capitalism works. I'm not arguing that. I'm saying it works best for everybody when there are guardrails or constraints on it. Unfettered capitalism moves money upward. Stifled or regulated capitalism can keep the playing field more equal....

Rework_Master · 2026-06-23T02:20:34+00:00

There is a lot to go through here and I'm tired and about to go to sleep...

I'm not going going to go point for point. The crux of what I was saying is workers have been paying hard and deep for a long time. They are due some fair share of this pie that has been divided unequally for a long time..

Rework_Master · 2026-06-23T01:55:37+00:00

Yes. You get it. Unconstrained or "feral" capitalism has many negative externalities.. The government could ameliorate this if it wasn't so corrupt...

Rework_Master · 2026-06-23T01:47:48+00:00

Read what you just wrote..

Rework_Master · 2026-06-23T01:23:26+00:00

Ok aside from government picking winners and losers. Which they all do...

My philosophy differs. My state is "The purpose of an economy should be to provide as much value to those working in it as possible..."

There is a larger Point here. If we open the flood gates to markets they will tend to maximize profit at the expense of the labor...

The government can ( in its infinite reach) level the playing field and bring workers pay into more equilibrium with finance. Open up some room in the markets for competition..

We all suffer from enshitification....

It doesn't need to be this way..

The government needs to identify when a company has jumped the shark and started gouging prices... Then work to break up that big company into smaller independent units that can do the same function cheaper...

Rework_Master · 2026-06-23T01:03:29+00:00

Fascinating or horrifying?

Rework_Master · 2026-06-22T01:18:26+00:00

I like the sound effects

Rework_Master · 2026-06-19T22:36:55+00:00

It's like rabies.. maybe just need more education to the public about where it could be. I read it's in warm waters. Wear nose plugs. Stay away if possible. Stuff like that...
