Daily Dose of Sultnpapper 11/22/18> Thanksgiving morning and what is this, my account value is over $80 billion US in value on steemit.com?

I know I have...

I know I have a lot to be thankful for in my life but big amounts of money has never been one of those things. Evidently steem took a big run up over night or the US dollar has dropped off the face of the earth in other countries seeing that my account on here is now valued at over $80 billion in USD.

Of course there...

Of course there could also be another logical explanation and it could be that it is a glitch in the code and all those witnesses that watch over things on here and make sure that their machines agree on the transactions are asleep at the wheel. That is the most logical of the three scenarios or is it?

We, the people...

We, the people, here in the US are really out of touch with our reality when it comes to money and the world. What I mean by that is that we just go along in our daily lives and as long as the store accepts that plastic card in exchange for what the store is selling everything is hunky dory (good).

None of us...

None of us, I shouldn’t say “none”, not many of us ever really stop to consider just what will happen when the folks holding the over $20 trillion in US debt decide they want to be paid. It isn’t going to be a pretty sight here in the US. All those problems we see in countries like Venezuela or Nicaragua are a very likely reality here as well.

I have said...

I have said on here plenty of times that we have no lawful money as outlined in the constitution that formed this country, only gold and silver coin are lawful money and can be real US dollars. Just stop and think for a moment, what if those countries holding our debt instruments actually demand payment is real US dollars of gold or silver? Do we actually have the gold and silver to back over $20 trillion in outstanding debt?

The answer to...

The answer to that question is pretty obvious in my opinion… hell no we don’t. If we actually had that kind of money we wouldn’t have been borrowing money in the first place and we would still be using gold and silver as our currency and not some pieces of paper that make no mention of being redeemable for gold or silver like back in the days before you and I were alive.

I joked with...

I joked with Hive account@moderndragon that the wife has to pick up some milk and bread this morning and the price will probably $2 million for these two items. He was the one who pointed out to me that massive number that my account is valued at as of this moment.

I can remember stories from years ago over in parts of Africa where bread was around 10,000 of their currency for a loaf of bread. I also keep hearing rumors from some folks I know who are well connected that the US dollar is going to be re-valued, it may just be that it is happening and our news here isn’t reporting it yet.

When that day...

When that day happens we just might be that third world country our elected leaders have been driving us to become. We spend way too much on fighting senseless wars in places we have no business being involved in to begin with. Iraq would be a prime example of that or would it?

Iraq, and that war...

Iraq, and that war, we were told had to do with 911 and the war on “terror”. We were sold a pig in a poke with that one; it was a war terror but not the terror we were told about. The real terror had to do with Sadam Hussien starting to back the Iraq Dinar with physical gold. That is what the terror was about, the US paper fiat currency was about to be blown up because people could actually get a real valuable substance in exchange for that paper dinar currency.

This $80 billion...

This $80 billion valuation of my account just may be an error in the conversion code or it just might be like 911 was; if you listen to our government leaders and this is a terrorist attack too. It may be our “money” has now been attacked and it has no value anywhere in the world but the US. I think “hyper inflation” is the term used to describe this type of situation.

Could it happening on Thanksgiving Day here in the US, right before the biggest shopping day of the year, be more fitting if the other countries of the world decided to call in our debt?

So today I...

So today I am thankful for two things in my life. My thanks are for my wife and four wonderful children. I have been blessed for sure in having them in my life.
Sure, there are other things but they don’t hold a candle to what is really important and that is family. I guess that I should expand that number to include my siblings or just change the number of things I am thankful for to one. I will change it to “one”, and family it is. That is where my thanks is and what I am thankful for on this day and every day.

I won't even...

I won’t even ask what you are thankful for, I know most of you pretty well, and you and I are pretty similar so there isn’t any need to ask.

Enjoy Thanksgiving Day if you are in the USA and for those of you in other countries and not celebrating an “official” thanksgiving day, make today and every day a day of thanks. We should all make every day a day of thanks.

Until next time,
