@TSNCurling Yes, Vic has been the voice of curling. I'm going to miss Vic, it was a great run while it lasted. Very difficult spot to replace, off the top of my head i'm thinking @darren_moulding.
@PolitBirojs@fiat_money@Polymarket Every major attempt to run a gold‑standard monetary system has eventually failed.
You sound like you are for no government and “sound money”. I don’t believe that will work.
@PolitBirojs@fiat_money@Polymarket Yes, it is. This currency is no longer in use because the Nazis lost power. The power to impose tax liabilities and fines in their otherwise worthless script. Currency is a tool used by goverment, it's neither good or bad on it's own.
@ofctimallen@ProfSteveKeen This video is only 24 minutes. It gives the MMT perspective on why the debt is too small and taxes too high. Side note: @wbmosler account was hacked recently.

@arttavana@TMZ This is self destructive behaviour, they do things that make it impossible for anyone to show them any empathy. If you ever find yourself in a hole, the first thing you need to do is stop digging.
@CurlingInside@Kmartcurl@Junglejerome@worldcurling I would add a new rule: accidental non-influential contact on delivery. If it was non-influential contact from the player delivering the stone, no penalty. This goes along with video replay. The point of rules is to maintain integrety of play, not to nitpick technicalities.
@TSNCurling@TeamBradJacobs@BryanMudryk The video replay shows a hog line violation. There is no advantage to doing it. Within the spirit of fair play Marc did nothing wrong. The thing is where do you draw the line, we draw the line at the hog line.
@BlendrNews The provincial debt is a huge road block to seperating from Canada. $85.2 billion roughly 17.5 thousand per albertan. A massive debt in foreign currency, and no BoC to back them up. This is the Canada trap, the FED govt doesn't spend enough forcing provinces into debt in CAD.
@TheGriftReport The digital id is inevitable, your biometrics will be used in near future to create an id, it's not something that can be prevented. If not the government it will come from the private sector.
@InsikWeb3@elonmusk If the movie theater can print tickets? Why do I have to pay for a movie ticket?
Taxes anchor demand for currency that is issued by the state. Without taxation there is no demand. Fiat currency is a coercive system.
