The bank tellers like me, because I take them out of their drawers, and they don't have to count them at the end of the day.

The thing is that dollar bills are borrowed from Wall Street, while dollar coins are government-issued money. I don't think JP Morgan Chase and Bank of America should be trusted to make the economy's money supply, so I try to always carry a few government-issued dollars with me.

Doctors have a tendency to recommend things that only they can recommend: prescription drugs, surgery, etc. They figure if you could do it yourself you'd have already done it.

But there's an ancient treatment for sinus problems that works really well: nasal irrigation. Basically, you add 1/2 tsp salt to a cup of water, and flush that through your nasal cavity.

Wall Street's media was overjoyed when someone with parasites in their water supply recently died after they used their neti pot. So boil your water first if that's a problem where you live, mkay? (This is covered on the link above...)

Archer Daniel Midland was founded as a linseed-crushing business. Linseed oil and most of the seed industry's other products were used by the paint industry.

Then the paint industry figured out how to make their products from petroleum, and ADM became obsolete.

Around the same time, agribusiness was experimenting with thyroid poisons, to make their animals fatter with less feed. These were carcinogenic to the animals, and to the people who ate them too. But they found that corn and soybeans served essentially the same purpose, and that's how the meat industry switched to seeds. This is according to one of Ray Peat's articles...

Gary Johnson 2012. Mr. Johnson tried for the republican nomination, but the powers that be decided to exclude him from a bunch of debates, and his republican candidacy didn't get off the ground.

He was governor of New Mexico for... 8 years, and the libertarian party is organized enough to get him on all 50 states' ballots.

I think if he'd pick up some of those "reality sticks" lying around, his campaign would really beat the crap out of Obama and Romney (Wall Street's anointed candidate). I'd have him start with pointing out how our entire money supply is "borrowed from Wall Street". Then he could move on to point out how Wall Street rigs the health care industry to make it as expensive and ineffective as possible (Ex: Lipitor. Business Week had a story about 4 years ago about how no one actually benefits from knee-capping their body's cholesterol-generating mechanism...)

Drug laws are a big one too...

There is NOTHING good about the Taliban. They are bigoted narco-thugs who actively seek to erase any sign of civilization, law, and order in the attempt to eliminate opposition to their drug farming slavery campaigns.

I was under the impression that the Taliban stamped out narcotics farming in Afghanistan, whereas the U.S. military has completely ignored Afghan poppy farmers.

I'm sure the taliban are/were assholes, but they certainly were not "narco-thugs".

The return of poppy farming to Afghanistan probably has something to do with the plutocracy's need to profit from the drug trade.

you can buy rolls of $1 coins from the mint for cost, free shipping...

Circulating $1 Coin Direct Ship Program

Hmm... looks like they're going to add a $12.50 feet. wtf? I think it's stupid - it's not like they were losing money before. 250 dollar coins * 0.12/coin = $30 cost. Even if shipping cost $15, they'd still make $205 a box.

but no one's told them what to be righteously angry about.

If I had an audience with the protesters, I would point out the difference between a dollar bill and a dollar coin. Dollar bills represent money that the banking system (the Federal Reserve's shares are mostly owned by banks on Wall Street) has lent into circulation, and is collecting interest on, whereas Dollar Coins are debt-free money created by the government.

This Bill was BORROWED from Wall Street.

Prgmr.com owner Luke Crawford has some diary entries at k5 where he talks about his business...

I've been happy customer of his for the past 2 years, so this comment is a vote for Luke.

Excess estrogen (usually produced by adipose tissue, but sometimes from pesticides or other sources of xenoestrogen/phytoextrogen) is what causes man-boobs.

If you examine the flow chart at my link, you'd see that progesterone is easily converted into testosterone, so the right amount will make male astronauts who are starved for progesterone precursors more manly.

HTH, hand.

Postmenopausal women lose bones because they don't produce nearly as much progesterone as they used to, while they still produce some 40-60% of the estrogen they used to make. "Hormone Replacement Therapy" poisoned women by supplementing estrogen and a fake progesterone, Provera, which the body is unable to convert into other hormones.

Supplementing progesterone is a much better bone-salvager than bisphosphonates, but natural hormones can't get patented. Furthermore, you don't need a prescription for progesterone, because it is entirely safe at any dose (as compared to insulin, which is also available without a prescription, but which is exceedingly easy to overdose on), and was available before the 1930-something food & drug act went into effect (grandfathered in), and Doctors need to get people to come back for periodic appointments to get refills for prescriptions that only they can authorize.
