El Salvador needs an urgent national conversation about traffic safety and strict enforcement. Accidents like this shouldn't be a daily occurrence..
#Urgente |🚨LOS CHORROS: 5 MUERTOS Y 27 HERIDOS POR UNA TRAGEDIA QUE NO PUEDE QUEDAR EN EL OLVIDO Cinco personas murieron y 27 resultaron lesionadas tras el brutal accidente en Los Chorros. Una tragedia que vuelve a poner bajo cuestionamiento la responsabilidad de quienes operan y son propietarios de vehículos de transporte pesado. No basta con poner una unidad en carretera y cobrar por el servicio. Empresas y propietarios deben responder por el mantenimiento de sus vehículos y por las condiciones en que sus conductores salen a circular. Cuando se descuidan estas obligaciones, las consecuencias pueden ser mortales.

They are telling you in your face. They gonna destroy your finances with inflation. I've see this before, I'm Argentinian, inflation is my middle name, BUY Bitcoin if you want to survive.
JUST IN: 🇺🇸 President Trump says inflation could pay down the $40 trillion US national debt "very rapidly."

I’ve spent some time on the issue of eliminating the human-disease mosquitoes. It is highly worth doing. Let them go the way of the horrible Guinea worm.
Only a tiny fraction of the world’s mosquito species prey on humans. All of these are invasive across essentially their entire range, having tagged along with humans as we moved around the world. Multiple careful studies say that eliminating these species would have little or no impact on the environment. However, it would save at least a million human lives a year, and get rid of a constant source of discomfort that prevents people from safely spending as much time outside as they would prefer. Malaria is only one of dozens of diseases, many potentially fatal, spread by mosquitoes. Gene drives can safely and relatively inexpensively eliminate these parasitic insects; we can create male mosquitoes that can only have male offspring and which then crash the population. It’s well past time that we did it.

I will never understand why some people value other peoples property over their own lives.

Charity is already a net negative in society. Charity funded by theft is an atrocity.

I propose a future where all forms of extortion become unprofitable. Including taxes.

I had considered moving to New Hampshire several times because of the Free State Project over the years. The project has touted many successes. I just can't get over the fact that in 20 years the project has failed stop or even slow down state government spending.

Adoption will not come through shitcoins. Adoption will not come through ETFs. Adoption will not come through nation-states. Adoption will only come through individuals making the choice to store their value in Bitcoin.
