Are we in violent agreement or what?

$1200 to mine, wholesale cost.

$2900 retail price includes markups of all the middlemen, shipping, LCS/seller profits, legal theft with the presence of paper gold, etc.

My bro had a big route, too. We got extras...which were free...and stood outside the church when it let out. The drugstore, 4 houses away wasn't too happy.

It was pure profit....

We used the Flyer wagon on Sunday so we could do both sides of the street easily.

Weekdays he did on his bike.

I was pretty ambitious as well. Shoveling snow in the winter, mowing lawns spring, summer and into the fall. Funny story: My father had a welding business. When I was about 11 or 12, my father taught me welding. Starting with oxy-acetylene and welding thinner pieces up to about 1/4 inch thick. Pretty soon I got the hang of it and I would weld the small stuff that came into the shop. Bicycles, mowers, shopping carts, all kinds of things. He would pay me half, the rest went for materials. Soon enough I learned how to make a mini bike, then go-carts. Kids all over the neighborhood would beg me to make them a mini bike. I told them, just bring me a bicycle and a motor, and I’ll build you one. They were taking the motors off of their fathers lawn mowers. I didn’t care, I made them a mini. Pretty soon I was the only one in the area with a working mower, and I had twice as many lawns to mow! A win win situation I’d say.

I predict that when Trump passes out of this world, only then will his greatness be realized. Then they should place his face on the New Five dollar coin. As for his face—they need a new mountain, near Mt. Rushmore—not on it. It should have the image of Trump with Reagan and Ike. A monument in Washington DC to rival that of FDR and MLK. His library in Mir-a-Lago and tomb will be must see attractions and a great opera will be composed on his life and his peacekeeping. I even predict that a massive Battleship, a monster of steel, armed with turrets full of rail guns and a landing strip for planes and drones—the USS Donald Trump, will be launched by his widow to serve as the flagship of the Atlantic Fleet.

Over looked is the fact that paper money is becoming obsolete. Transactions involving large sums are accomplished on electronic web based ledgers.

We need monetary unit with the buying power of the 1975 dollar.

Yes, but wages would need to scale.

When Italy tried to knock two zeros off the Lira the Italians practically revolted.

Why? because so many of then wouldn't be millionaires anymore!

I did not mean you personally. I meant in general. We need to quit naming buildings and so forth after “princes (and princesses) of the earth”, especially while they are still alive.

Lots of upsides to it also . Hyperinflation argument seems weak. Seems a stretch to say we are about to see hyperinflation.
