As world governments continue to print money and debase their currency, we will see more people look for a stable place to hold their current assets. Of course some will look at it as an investment.

Or lose your hard drive. I wonder if that guy in Europe ever recovered his 280 million.

A man who says he threw away a hard drive loaded with 7,500 bitcoins in 2013 is offering his city $70 million to dig it up from the dump

James Howells, from Wales, threw away the hard drive containing the cryptocurrency in 2013. The trove, buried at a huge dump, is worth $275 million.

Regrettably, the whole globalism concept, which Obama and Biden embraced, is built around the notion of the diminishing importance of the nation state. It is an altruistic set of objectives which at best would create a median line global prosperity and personal safety construct which by definition, would be something the most prosperous and free nation on the planet (hint - the United States) would experience as economic decline and a "refocusing" of personal freedom for the collective rather than individual good. It is, of course cloaked, in the bunting of social and climate justice.

It is a theory which is the antithesis of maintaining the US as a global leader.

I truly hope the Biden and his farther left enablers' agenda and is an utter and complete failure.

It is such an abhorrent rejection of what is in the national interests of this country, its future, and its people that I gladly held my nose and voted for Trump twice. I will do everything in my power to try and end the democrat legislative majority in '22 to insure his every significant effort is stillborn.

Don't despair. It could be worse. We could be swearing in Hillary for a second term.

hope he iexceeds my expectations,

Have to admit the bar is so low it is laying on the ground, so if he does any thing well it will be seen as exceeding expectations- He could be in line for Most Improved Politician Award.

Did you hear about the guy here in th e US who has used 8 of his 10 password tries tries to get into his bit coin wallet or whatever they call it? He has over $200 million on the line.

Well, I see China Joe cancelled the XL pipeline project right after his inauguration. The march towards at LEAST $4.00/gallon fuel for the poor bastards having to drive to work for a living has began. Unity and opportunity for the American worker! Can’t wait for the upcoming sequels!

It started 4 years ago lying about whether or not it rained and the size of the crowd; it ends with leading a failed coup and acts of domestic terrorism leaving the nation's capital a war zone. In a couple months, he will be barred from running for public office ever again. A fitting end for the most corrupt, self-dealing, divisive leader in this nation's history.

Joe Biden is a relic whose party is leaving him (and me) behind. Joe is a good man, an honest man, a caring man with a lifetime of public service. He is the leader the nation desperately needs to lead us out of a pandemic, to help the millions of service / hospitality workers who are desperate, heal the nation, and show the world the US is still a global leader. Joe will likely choose to serve 1 term, but these 4 years are critical to the future of this nation. I have confidence in President Biden and all Americans should wish him success like we used to do.

A good man? A good man doesn’t use influence peddling to enrich himself and his corrupt family. It’s no secret that I don’t like Trump’s personality or some things he says but at least you know where he stands, unlike Biden who claims to look out for you while lining his pockets! Stick your head back in the sand now.

Alaska Department of Revenue - Tax Division - Daily Oil Prices Page

Welcome to Alaska's Department of Revenue.

Just so people can follow the increase in Alaska crude prices. One benefit, the state of Alaska’s budget is based on $80 a barrel crude. It’s a fine balance with oil dependent business.

I used to be a Democrat many, many nightmares ago until Bill Clinton attempted to disarm me with his “assault” weapons ban. Fortunately, it didn’t work. My view of this Presidential election is many, many voters voted for Biden ONLY because they hated Trump. This is hardly a positive, overwhelming mandate for Biden or his agenda going forward.

Not that anybody cares, but I want to clarify my post here. I grew up as a conservative Democrat in the mostly moderate/conservative Southern California of the ‘60s, ‘70s and lived there through the ‘80s. The Democrats I knew supported Presidents Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon and Reagan. Right or wrong, they supported our involvement in the Vietnam war. The 2nd Amendment was supported as well as hunting. Remember the attempt to ban the so called “Saturday Night Special “ handguns in the ‘70s? My non gun owning somewhat moderate Democratic grandfather told me that he disagreed with the ban, because the non wealthy average working man should be able to buy a “cheap” handgun to protect his family if he chose to do so. Then in the ‘90s (I escaped by then), the political landscape started to change. Not exactly sure why, but it did. My question is what happened to the mostly moderate/conservative Democrats? There are a few in Congress, but the majority are left leaning and many Socialist thinking idealists? It’s not the Democratic Party I was a member of and the ideation I was a part of. What the h*** happened?

Guess who the big winner is in that scenario. Hint: his company owns BNSF, the freight hauler moving the oil by rail.

Wow, didn’t know that. Kind of like Lady Bird Johnson’s cargo transport ship company supplying our troops in Vietnam? Glad to see nothing changes. Business as usual. Wasn’t it Trump that upset the apple cart and try to change some things like this? Well, that’s soon to be a distant memory as we get back to business as usual.
