Kaiser,
The bat soup you mention goes well with food from the newest chain restaurant in Wuhan – Kentucky Fried Bat – they say it tastes like chicken!
Kim Jong “Fat Bastard” Un of DPRK eats it by the bucket I hear.
He also eats little children with his favorite delicacy, Swiss Emmentaler cheese he gets in 25-pound slabs from Switzerland where he & his sister attended college under assumed names…(true story, except for the children part).

Kaiser,
It’s counterfeit red oak wood boxes Mike “The Numismatic Devil” Mezack presents on HSN’s corrupt coin collector shows…made by the tiny hands of children in communist China who make 25-cents a day & a bowl of rice on a 16-hour day during their one potty break! Sad!

Are you surprised that a bank tied strongly to the cryptocurrency industry would fail? Does it fall on dead eyes that both of these “banks” are located in California?

Not if you pay cash for your home.

We have a government that spends money like drunken sailors, national debt closing in on $33 Trillion, fed interest rates pegged to be over 6% by years end, 60% of wage earners living pay check to pay check, and let’s not forget about inflation costs. The stock market hasn’t even digested the effects of all those interest rate hikes so I’m not too optimistic about our economic future, in the short term.
As far as SVB, it may be an isolated case and not representative of the entire banking system. I’m just amazed that people would put money in an account that’s not insured.Since it’s Silicon Valley, I’ll bet they get a bailout because it pays to contribute campaign dollars to the right people.

Ha ha ha – EZZZACTLY Major D. Gubmint knows a sucker is born every minute 😉

Kaiser, the USG scheme is for the Treasury to authorize it, Mint coin it then have Federal Reserve “buy” it. Trick is, Federal Reserve doesn’t buy it. It’s the ultimate in fiat currency make-believe, statist utopia dream of shuffling paper to come up w/a solution. $1T coin is not for sale to the public.

Caffeine Mike will then need to go to Fiji again and get it to mint a $1T coin for him to hawk on TV 😉
