Gotta disagree cap'n. I think this speaks more to the debasement of the currency, our currency daily gets closer to fairground tokens.
As a kid I used to collect stamps, even at that young age it was obvious that the third world hell-holes produced the nicest garish stamps, often triangular which was a real novelty then. We are headed in that direction.dndinge ajuvede
