Save your pennies!
April 5, 2021 by Robert

Remember they estimated that it would cost the USA about $100 Trillion for the “New Green Swindle”? Obviously, that estimate will grow quickly because copper is not the only metal or Rare Earth that will soon be in short supply!

Save your pennies!

Marcus M.

That’s right, save those pennies! Recently, Bloomburg News claimed that another 20 million tons of copper would be needed for electric vehicles, solar, wind and related infrastructure. However, the world now uses 20 million tons of copper already. So where are the other 20 million tons going to come from?

Unfortunately, “Copper production reached about 20.4 million tons in 2018, but has fallen over the past 2 plus years, and is expected to drop more due to water shortages let alone strikes, having to mine underground, and governmental restrictions.” (See: https://www.mining.com/web/copper-the-most-critical-metal/)

They made them out of steel during WWII.

And the fascists want to eliminate cash entirely, making it easier to track your every bubble-gum purchase. 

And I hear they're going to require tracking bits in chewing gum like they do in gunpowder, to see who's really putting the gum under the seats.
The GOP is not the party leadership.  The GOP is the party MEMBERSHIP.   The members need to kick the leaders out if they leaders are going the wrong way.  No coddling allowed.

Only 1983 and later...they were copper before.

Quarters are 91.67% copper since 1965.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
