2 of the 3 cats I got, rarely want love from anyone, they are very standoffish. But the girl, she’s a love bug. Very sweet and caring individual.

Ross Ulbricht was pardoned.
Thomas Massie went through things in a bit more detail. Him "putting hits out" on people was never even brought up in court because they had no evidence of it and they likely were coming at Ross so hard because they didn't want people using Bitcoin. It makes sense for the time. They hated crypto when it started, many of them still hate it. They basically made him take on the crimes and sentences of people on his platform which he had nothing to do with.

So getting rid of federal income tax is on the table right now.

Please, please, please, please... This is one of the main things I wanted. It would help millions of people.
 
Just understand that, this is possibly flipped today.

Example: People hated Republicans in the 70's/80's, like Nixon. Reagan built a legacy that was felt for that generation. So, Democrats won the house/congress for the next decade. This is now flipped. Democrats won 2 presidential terms, and had the house/senate. Now, Republicans have it all.

Now, Trump didn't have the consecutive presidency, but right now? Trump has the Reagan storyline regarding winning the popular votes. From here, its up to us to keep this going by electing next generation politicians.

But, going back to what I was saying this is probably flipped today. I'll put another example; Justin Trudeau had the parliament for 10 years for the liberals. Now, we can possibly have a conservative politician in Canada. But here's the thing though, everywhere else, the "right" known everywhere else as conservative are branded as the "bad guy."

Germany, I don't know their politics, but they were a leftist power-house. The teachings of marxist theory was born there - Karl Marx. Hence "marxist."

There's also Leninism or Stalin, but they act similarly.
Wasnt Karl Marx Russian?
If i had to discribe Germany Leftist and Socialist might be ideal!

But lets be honest if ai does take all our jobs the entire world has to turn Socialist!
Its honestly pretty cool not having to work as a mentally ill easily stressed out person!
I mean i could work probably but im not sure it would make anyone happy!
Aslo i have more time to work on my comic this Way :D !

Generally the idea with socialist-communism (as "intended") is that everyone works to some degree. Historically, do you know what happened to those that can't?

Communism doesn't scale without suffering and death. Yet people like Marx believe it was done wrong and their way will make it work!

Didn't work in China, Russia, Korea, Cuba, Germany, Poland, Romania, Laos, Vietnam, Afghanistan, etc. but the communists of today are sure it will work this time! lmao

Communism in and of itself has never succeeded or lasted to tell the tale, its an unstable system that would require so much outside factors that's it not even remotely feasible.
