To go back to the thread main topic, and in the wake of Jessie Lemonier's tragic death, I would like to bring to your attention this piece:

I found it well balanced, and quite useful.

Courageous vaccine-injured nurse tells the FDA's advisory committee on vaccines about the 770 safety signals from mRNA COVID jabs that the CDC found and hid from the public.
They don't care, but at least they won't be able to say they didn't know.

JUST IN: As Today's VRBPAC Meeting Ended, CDC Dep. Dir. Tom Shimabukuro Admits COVID Vaccines Are Causing "Debilitating Illnesses"
"We are aware of these reports of people experiencing long-lasting health problems following COVID vaccination"

Why would Texas collect taxes for California on income earned in Texas or assets accumulated in Texas, especially when Texas doesn't itself have an income tax?

There is no "money." There is only debt.

This might explain why we don't believe these voices-of-moderation guys:
and this amazing bullshit:Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) was scheduled to release the next round of excess death stats on 24th January, but on that day, the website's relevant page changed the 'next release' due date to "unknown" and published a shorter summary instead.
Regular reporting will apparently continue sometime in February. 2022 deaths from 1 Jan to 30 Sept were running at 16% above average. One could be forgiven for suspecting this interruption to normal reporting is to buy time, possibly to devise a brand new method of calculating excess deaths that is more palatable. I guess we'll find out next month.

But really, the problem is the complete absence of any mention of the Infection Fatality Rate of covid-19, and why it is somehow necessary to even discuss vaccinating people against a disease that is less likely to kill you than the flu.
People's feelings are hurt, poor things. I realize that these guys condemn the vaccines, kinda, but the state media will use this for their own purposes.Trust, once lost, is hard to regain. People feel that their medical leaders are withholding basic facts, denying reality, disregarding new information, or worse, causing them harm.
When people feel this way, they will look to other sources—even outlandish ones—that make them feel heard. Because of the continuing failures of our public health officials to discharge their duties properly, it is deeply unfortunate but also understandable that many Americans are turning to Twitter instead of the CDC.

I see they are finally looking into Molten salts over at terapower, so that's good. Gates wasted a decade or more on his pipedream traveling wave nonsense. The stuff they look to be doing now is useful based on established past research.
The reality is, if the US does not get back out front on this we are done as a world power. We need to be building LWR's as fast as we can to replace the aging fleet, and commit to having another gen 3 pilot plant online in 5 years with a full scale in 10. I'd like it to be liquid fuel and thorium, but we have enough 'spent' fuel sitting in pools for that to be the next generations problem.
Oil is never going away, but one day in the future it might be hard enough to get that things get painful. We need to have power on the grid to charge those electric cars or synthesize liquid fuels, period.
We are not quite to the "That which is not mandatory is prohibited"-stage, yet. But if the government thinks that crypto transactions are being used to evade taxes, you are a complete fool if you think they will not do something about that. And you are not a complete fool. Bitcoin is going away, soon.

I'm not a fool. Nor was the person or people who created Bitcoin, which was invented to fight centralized governments and currencies. Now, it could fail the test, but on paper and in practice, it hasn't yet. And people have used bitcoins in all kinds of illegal ways for 13 years.
Again, what CAN they do about that?
I have no idea about the scenarios that can play out, but Bitcoin is not going anywhere.
It's like saying the Internet is going away because people do illegal activities with it.
