The taxation unit of days gone by was the family. When society finally collapses we will revert to that sort of structure and married women will lose all rights includign the right to vote |

| 09:11 |
pankkake |
there's an interesting pattern though. Germany allows women to vote, Hitler gets elected |
| 09:11 |
usagi |
By creating competition in the workforce between men and women, the middle class family unit (what you might think of as the backbone of the american workforce) was deemed uneconomical. Now you have to have two working parents to survive |
| 09:11 |
usagi |
it really damaged the family unit and the moral fiber of america |

Career women don't raise kids, so you see a much lower birthrate. |

Look what happened in Japan. |

but the cause isn't women's rights, the cause is taxes |

That's also why you are seeing lower wages. People don't NEED as much money to live anymore, since there are many more single people |

In 1783 they had a female president. |

That's a little too convenient, comaining that history has been rewritten |

Although I am sure it has happened before |
| 09:26 |
chetty |
no, I mean the list you are reading is the thing rewriten |
| 09:27 |
chetty |
much like blacks get left out of the american revolution ... |
| 09:27 |
usagi |
The other factor is that humans have a very long written history. |
| 09:27 |
chetty |
this history of all this stuff is still there, it just gets left out of the 'common' versions |
| 09:28 |
usagi |
Perhaps those in charge of the issuance of credit simply knew ahead of time what would happen once they started giving married women credit cards? |
| 09:28 |
chetty |
I repeat, it was not just married, it was female, period |
| 09:28 |
usagi |
There's too much evidence that wasn't the case |
| 09:29 |
usagi |
I have a pretty good feeling that the general case of women being denied is because they would present a credit risk |
| 09:29 |
chetty |
well all your evidence didnt let my mother buy a house, her fathers signature did |
| 09:29 |
usagi |
When asked how they planned to repay their loan, what do you think they would have said? |
| 09:30 |
usagi |
Not havign a job or an education or a husband? |
| 09:30 |
usagi |
Who in their right minds would have issued them credit? |
| 09:30 |
chetty |
my mother was a judge |
| 09:30 |
usagi |
Case in point :) |

Women had it pretty good back then. IMO of course. |
| 09:31 |
usagi |
She probably made more than most working men |

A lot of this is really beside the point. We're ignoring the fact that women could have incorporated a company with a willing lawyer |
| 09:31 |
usagi |
Even with a female lawyer |
| 09:32 |
usagi |
And they could have done anything they wanted in the name of their corporation. |
| 09:32 |
usagi |
But this would require some amount of money (which it is obvious the women being denied credit -- for example -- did not have) |
| 09:32 |
chetty |
yup thats why I say the whole rights thing is stupid, and femnazi even more so |
| 09:32 |
usagi |
The fact that this is never mentioned nor explored is more a testament to the reason why women generally didn't have any rights in the first place than anything else |
| 09:32 |
usagi |
I sort of agree, but I am not sure I would want to go back to society the way it was 100 years ago either |
| 09:33 |
usagi |
Women having the right to go on the pill and become self employed, ahem, is a great thing. Really. |

the paper has a coating that accepts charge, the head delivers it in the print pattern, the paper is run over toner and it sticks, then it is melted on, if any full-contact parts were cleaned and have residue, they will disrupt the process |

Hello |
| 22:25 |
youtubetard |
Says I have been voiced for 30 minutes? Still learning here. |
| 22:25 |
BingoBoingo |
youtubetard: Yeah |
| 22:26 |
BingoBoingo |
if you need more time just pm someone |
| 22:26 |
BingoBoingo |
as long as you act like a human being generally people are happy to voice you until you establish youself in the WoT and can voice yourself |
| 22:26 |
BingoBoingo |
youtubetard: So what is it you do? |
| 22:27 |
youtubetard |
ahh ok ok. Makes sense. I am reading up more so I don't come off as a troll lol |
| 22:27 |
youtubetard |
reading up more on WoT that is. |
| 22:28 |
youtubetard |
I work with Bitcoin and enjoy working with technology. I've done mostly consulting which is more or less just educating certain individuals and businesses on BTC, what it is, how it works, and why they should get some |
| 22:28 |
youtubetard |
What about yourself? |
| 22:31 |
BingoBoingo |
Well, I read a lot and sometime people ask me to do things. |
| 22:31 |
BingoBoingo |
I guess sometimes I "consult" |

haha good answer. |
| 22:34 |
BingoBoingo |
Basically ever since 2004 when I bought a computer I've been waiting for an opportunity to use GPG and... Bitcoin afforded that. |
| 22:35 |
youtubetard |
haha very nice. Bitcoin has opened a whole new world to basically anyone will to learn/understand it |
| 22:35 |
youtubetard |
which is amazing if you really think about it |

AMAZING COMPANY! |
| 22:36 |
BingoBoingo |
Indeed, so when did you get started? |
| 22:40 |
youtubetard |
I built and fiddled with various electronics when I was very little...leading to me building a computer. Came to a better understanding of real money and stable currencies, discovered bitcoin in 2010. and have pursued it ever since |
| 22:40 |
youtubetard |
with continued education of course |
| 22:42 |
The20YearIRCloud |

I think we (Rentalstarter) will be having another webinar type thing September the 1st |
| 22:44 |
BingoBoingo |
Ah, even though ~2010 was when I first started reading on it, fucking library school. Wasn't until very late 2012 I started playing with it more seriously and 2013 that I started seeking introductions. |
| 22:45 |
BingoBoingo |
The20YearIRCloud: What sort of webinar? |
| 22:45 |
youtubetard |
ah, it does take time...BTC was deff sketch at first, but that's more so if you're used to seeing things from a consumer/comercial stand point |
| 22:45 |
The20YearIRCloud |
BingoBoingo: going over company financials, forecasting, where the company is headed in the short term |
| 22:45 |
BingoBoingo |
The20YearIRCloud: Ah |

Eh, gdp between 2nd world and 3rd world is huge, much easier to pay some PMCs and take over a african despot than say kazachstan |

GDP is a lie |
| 22:54 |

Then let's say manpower * arms in inventory |
| 22:56 |
youtubetard |
There are a lot of factors involved. |

Right, you could be the motherfucker who has the bomb and an acute shortage of lithium citrate syrup USP |
| 22:56 |
youtubetard |
lol very true |
| 22:57 |
youtubetard |
but, micro-states are on the rise no doubt. |
| 22:57 |
youtubetard |
especially with the use of crypto tech such as btc and being able to generate more free flowing economies |
| 22:59 |
The20YearIRCloud |
There are some pretty good candidate areas for micro countries if yo ucould break away effectively |
| 22:59 |
BingoBoingo |
Florisant Missouri being a prime example |

yea...Quebec will hopefully demonstrate a peaceful and constructive seccesion |
| 23:02 |
youtubetard |
although with the rate of bankrupt nations...it shouldn't be too difficult |
| 23:07 |
The20YearIRCloud |
is quebec gonna cede again? |
| 23:07 |
The20YearIRCloud |
along with scotland , NI and flanders? |
| 23:12 |
youtubetard |
one can only hope. |
| 23:13 |
youtubetard |
more complexity is the nature of all things in the long term. So the rise of many many many micro states is very likely. People see Liechtenstein's success |

The weird thing is an independent Flanders is probably going to be more capable of keeping ISIS at bay than the combined efforts of the US and UK ever could |
| 23:17 |
youtubetard |
oh yea, I agree. If anything ISIS has seen the success of the TaliBann in creating a "Day the Mouse roared" scenario. The US continues to bleed and become bankrupt whilst attempting to maintain "stability" in a non-stabile enviorment |

What would make for a better home base in 2015 or 2016: Luxembourg, Monaco or Jersey/Guernsey? |
| 23:18 |
youtubetard |
great question. I don't see europe being safe honestly. While Monaco and other principalities are entering their golden age...the time to be there is now...not in 5 years + |
| 23:19 |
youtubetard |
but that's my opinion. Prices are high there, so I can't see a benefit financially |
| 23:20 |
BingoBoingo |
xmj: What about Serbia? |
| 23:20 |
xmj |
define 'safe' |
| 23:20 |
BingoBoingo |
xmj: Or Transndstria? |
| 23:20 |
xmj |
BingoBoingo: nah. Ukraine |
| 23:20 |
BingoBoingo |
Fuck that. |
| 23:20 |
xmj |
and yes, if Russia doesn't invade Ukraine is another option on the table. |
| 23:21 |
The20YearIRCloud |
I like singapore |
| 23:21 |

BingoBoingo: You haven't been there. You haven't seen Ukrainian women on the streets. |

Poland is making alot of good choices |
| 23:21 |

Ukraine is going to suffer full Russian invasion or not |
| 23:21 |
xmj |
The20YearIRCloud: Poland also has a catholic population, which is fucking annoying. |

Russia is a good buy imo |

uruguay seems to be a really good choice if they continue on |

But what if you love her ? What if you love what shes doing to you, not necessarily for what it is but for it being her doing ? Maybe you even hate it for what it is, on some level, but because shes doing it you love it anyway. Years later I read in a learned article that thats exactly how women love, not for the thing but for its meaning, and I was enlightened. Thats what they mean by the meaning of things, do they ? |
| 23:24 |

If the US ever de-federalized, many would be in for a treat |
| 23:25 |

de-federalized? you mean, proper central state, not just a fake one? |
| 23:25 |
xmj |
fake - in all but law |
| 23:25 |
The20YearIRCloud |
Meaning the federal goverment went back to the original role of only planning national defense and nothing else |
| 23:25 |
The20YearIRCloud |
Most US states are run pretty well, but when you add the federal goverment into it, it becomes a huge mess |

The20YearIRCloud: of course |
| 23:26 |

I thought you meant the other way round |
| 23:27 |
The20YearIRCloud |
But state budgets, control, state/house makup, they're run well |
| 23:27 |
xmj |
well, they have no one to bail them out (cf Californian default) |
| 23:27 |
The20YearIRCloud |
Ohio is a prime example, in the past 10 years we've finally got a group in the house that knows what they're doing and are repealing a bunch of dumb laws |
| 23:27 |
BingoBoingo |
The20YearIRCloud: Ohio might suffer the most from reduced Federal dependence... |
| 23:27 |
xmj |
The20YearIRCloud: the funny thing is: |
| 23:27 |
The20YearIRCloud |
left to their own devices, California, Illinois, new york and maryland would implode |

US-american libertarians think they can fix the flaws of the Constitution by reverting to it. |

Yeah , they'd cut cook county off :D |
| 23:28 |
BingoBoingo |
Oh, most of the stuff sround there too. |
| 23:28 |
youtubetard |
still...smaller limited govmints where authority tends to be inhereted to the local inhabitants tends to be more stable....at least history tells us so |
| 23:28 |
The20YearIRCloud |
Yeah, but cook county would be a start |
| 23:28 |
youtubetard |
lololol constitution caused most of all the issues we have today |
| 23:28 |
BingoBoingo |
Split could run as far south as I-64 and I'd be happy |
| 23:29 |
The20YearIRCloud |
The problem wasn't the constitution, it was that people thought things weren't clear and decided they could deviate |
