$1 an hour full time is 60 ounces of gold. That is 160,000 in todays money. Inflation statistics regurgitated by the imf world bank and wall street are skewed using consumer price index which wails miserably to account for the devaluation of currency due to the increase in circulating currency supply. The price of gold does this perfectly. When nixon ended the gold standard in ‘71 minimum wage had been raised (an eighth time since it was legislated in 1938 at 25¢ an hour or ≈15 ounces of gold)3 years earlier in 1968 to $1.60/hr or $250,000 today.

The price of good stayed constant for 172 years from 1799 when a federal currency was established till 1971 only fluctuating ≈80% from $19 to $35 but in the 53 years since then it has ballooned 7500% to $2650 last i checked. This is in tandem with the amount of us currency printed into circulation. By the end of 1979 gold price was already up over 2000% to just under $800 and in 1981 the usa printed the first trillion. Now we are printing one trillion every 3-4 months.

This is why from 1945-1975 one adult working a full time minimum wage job could support a family of four with enough left over to save for retirement their children’s higher education and go on a modest yearly family vacation. But today it would take both adults working 80 hours per week with overtime at a minimum base pay of double minimum wage or quintuple it if federal minimum wage is the default where you are. Minimum wage since has only increased 450-1300% while corporate executive pay has increased 3300%-16,500% in the same time period.

Yeah, and exactly where were they 5 years ago when bernie sanders was poised to win the nomination before every other candidate dropped out? They did everything in their power then to ensure sanders wouldn’t be nominated and they didnt care if a senile old mummy was handed the nuclear football. They dont ever really care because the president has no real power, wall street military and prison industry profiteers call the shot and hand pick the presidential party nominees behind closed doors so they win either way. those with the biggest bank accounts get the most say. But they probably all meet in private and have a vote split by the size of their net worth, like a big pissing contest for children with massive egos who regularly commit crimes against humanity with out having to consider pesky consequences.

But rich people will just say no because they have to make money and its also a plus for them to dominate and abuse vulnerable women. Just like drug prohibition it fills the prisons which are slave labor and profit generation centers for them. Prohibiting drugs makes the drugs more expensive too so I would think its the same for sex work. If they legalize it however will they skim off the top and make the peasants afraid of their boot?

Lmao. Donating to organizations and charity is a waste of money. They are just grifts that take a majority of those donations to enrich their executives and maybe 5-15% actually goes to the cause you support.

Im too poor to give either money but i would rather see it go to someone who brought awareness to the issue and inspired more class consciousness and solidarity than the wall street military industry profiteer owned democrat party ever has.

Sometimes luxuries are the best thing for the downtrodden to borrow because they can be bartered for money in the real world and sometimes having a little scratch in your pocket can make you feel human. My fiance and i pretty much survived on less than $6000 in total this year but having a little paper in my pocket makes me feel like a person. That being said the more expensive items a store carries the harder it is to borrow from them.

There is an article i read where someone who claims to know him well and went with him to vietnam said that he told them he had $6,000,000 from his family but that his family relationship was a sore spot/contentious.

Either way the will says he wont receive a trust if he is convicted of a violent crime so he abandoned his wealth to make a stand if he is indeed the one who made the claim adjustment for brian thompson.

He volunteered at his families nursing homes when he was growing up. So its likely the fact that his family was enriching themselves through insurance providers and providing sub adequate care to seniors that made him contemptuous of his family’s fortune. Tiffany cianci on youtube did a deep dive on his family’s business(es) before anyone else had any deets.

Thanks for your input. I do not have an expert grasp of coding or programming.

Is there no possibility one could have set this domain up to release after being arrested either by oneself or with a participating party?

Agree to disagree. Is it on par with a forensic analysis of the writing style and composition of both documents? Definitely not. But is it completely useless? I don't think so. Might as well use AI as a tool whenever we can.
