Not sure if anyone on this forum is following the NBA scandal with zillionaire POS Steve Ballmer and a company named Aspiration.

Aspiration was a fraudlent company that sold “carbon credits” for planting trees.

Ballmer owner of the NBA Clippers is accused of using the company to circumvent the salary cap by giving his star player a job which paid 28 million for doing nothing.

Carbon credits for planting trees?

Buying a piece of the Brooklyn Bridge seems like a better deal than that.

Global warming would be a good thing, especially for Canada. Nobody likes cold weather, except Holstein cows. They give more milk in it. BFD. But trees are good. They provide shade, lumber, sap for syrup, fruit, mulberry trees are good for silk worms, and forests reduce the power of harsh winter winds. So, an NBA owner did a little grift with trees and a star player. The salary cap is stupid, and so are carbon credits. Let freedom ring. Plant a freakin’ tree.

Steve Ballmer will be 70 years old next month.

What the heck was he thinking?

The NBA will make him sell the team if this is serious.

Then, the IRS and DOJ will show up...
