Why MPEx is better than fiat institutions, part 930458 : we don’t use lube

That's right, I'm doing a series of these. So consider the following points :

Point #1 :

A "Leading US banks have warned that they could start charging companies and consumers for deposits if the US Federal Reserve cuts the interest it pays on bank reserves."
B Lol.

A Are they trying to drive customers away or just playing 'mines bigger' with the FED?
B The latter. Customers schmustomers.

A Hmm they dont need depositors anymore? Could be...
B What would they need them for ? In socialism depositors are just a liability, they expect service. One billion collected from 1k people means you have to talk to 1k people. Would you want to talk to 1k people ?

A Good point.

Customeri As far as I can tell, the dissenters in this thread are either confused, exposed (i.e. shareholders), or bribed. There has been a lot of name calling, but there has not been one coherent argument as to why my bet should not be refunded.

MPOE-PR Because fuck you, that's why. What more do you need?

Point #2 :

Concerned Bystander I don't think you understand how policies work in court. A court would never uphold a policy that states "I have the right to steal your money," which is effectivly what BitBet's policy says.

Now, sing along and enunciate it like you mean it : government good, business bad ; black man good, white man bad ; government good, business bad ; female good, male bad ; government good, business bad ; four legs good, two legs bad ; government good, business bad ; drones good, warses bad ; government good, business bad ; rightses good, freedoms bad ; government good, business bad ; Keynes good, Hayek bad ; government good, business bad ; compliance good, rape bad ; government good, business bad ; government good, business bad ; etc good, etc bad.

It could go on for quite a while, this, but... don't you feel just a little derpy by now ?

  1. The most offensive thing here are those off-Comic Sans fonts.

  2. Trilema uses Comic Sans by the way. But those are definitively worse.

    And WTF at their policies: milk and grain? Grains are terrible and many people should not consume milk at all. This policy is harmful to health and racist (I'm not kidding).

    Trilema uses Comic Sans IRONICALLY.

  4. 1 grain = 1 rice seed??????????

    and which of the ritz?

    Ritz Crackers varieties are: Original, Low Sodium, Reduced Fat, Whole Wheat, Roasted Vegetable, Garlic Butter, Honey Butter, Hint of Salt and Fresh Stacks.

    roasted plastix must taste rly gud.

  5. I am not convinced. In fact the argumentation is weak.
    I would say MPEx is no better...
