If the DemoMarxists succeed in stealing the midterms and 2024, that play money will be worth more than the real thing.

Thank you for not sticking this on your blog and pretending you are the source of it.

Because, you know, your blog isn’t the source of anything.

Ever.

I no longer understand the reason for going after counterfeiters. The Secret Service estimates 70 million worth is rattling around out there. And maybe 45 million of North Korean super notes.

That’s going to destabilize our currency, but this year alone the Fed will print 50,000 times that amount of counterfeit.

I don’t get it.

its not too bad if Wells Fargo accepts the Playmoney

but if their ATMs start dispensing it......????

(come to think on it, the bills Wells Fargo dispenses DO say “federal reserve note” on them......... what’s the diff?)

So, you’re saying
they are merely, undocumented denominations..

AND THEY VOTE!

You may be on to something there. Instead of going through all the cost to print off legitimate money, or more precisely, going through all the bureaucratic expense of operating and maintaining the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee, why not just allow free-lancers do all of the heavy lifting? Simply accept whatever bogus money as currency. Get a machine at the Federal Reserve that will scan and destroy fake money as it comes in, just to maintain equilibrium in the money supply. Seems like the whole process would be streamlined.

But, but, but, the counterfeiters are creating money out of thin air, you say? That is exactly what the Fed does.

LOL!

I don’t think I’ve seen this side of “humblegunner” before, but it’s hilarious.

[Chickensoup]

I am not sure this is a crime anymore.

Leftists lie.

[teeman8r]

you need to get out more.

[TheConservativeTejano]

Unbelievable, here we are accepting Monopoly play money as real cash.

I would say that the folks at Home Depot need a full screening of the folks that they hire and second this guy at Home Depot needs to be fired asap and jail time please.

A meeting with all Home Depot employees that this behavior will not be tolerated ever again and instant firing is the penalty of this perverted behavior and jail time.

“I no longer understand the reason for going after counterfeiters.”

In this case the crime was theft of cash from the register by an employee. The store took the loss.

[euram]

this is just undocumented money, so there should be no harm no foul. Give the guy back and money and let him go.

[fhayek]

So, just think out that for a second... The store loses money if the employee puts in bogus money. Who loses money when the central bank does so?

[mykroar]

Now he’s trolling people for NOT linking to their blogs. He must be really bored.

When we migrated to a different system a small batch of checks went out with non-negotiable where the signature line was. These were test checks. A bunch got cashed any how.

As a former canadian, we have a chain of retail stores called CANADIAN TIRE , which gives you EXTRA “canadian tire money” which is the equivalent amount to the dollar ONLY AND IF you use it store.

Throughout the years, idiots use it to buy at actual retail stores and some immigrants new to canada cant seem to grasp the actual concept of it.

Yeah it’s like the old “green stamps” we had in the US.

I saw someone use “green stamps” for a window inspection sticker one time.
