Hey, like commie-la ‘fweedumb’ hawiss says: “$20 bucks is $20 bucks!”
Isn’t that funny.

Is that the German? Schultz or something...
“Love of money is the root of all evil.”
It makes one wonder how many greedy Freepers are being paid to post Russian propaganda...
Quite a KooKy thought

Both appellations are immediate discussion losers.
Please don’t hide from Neocon. It fits your Interventionism.
Good for them. The US is completely wrong on this entire mess, and on their “solution.”
Hopefully the rest of the world will tell FJB to go to he!!, too.
FWIW the sanctions are fake too.

And it is a stark reminder that no asset is too toxic to be traded when there are willing buyers, sellers and brokers.”
