mircea_popescu: i wonder if he salted the soup

dub: it may not be a traditional cash exchange, sex/pretend love for citizenship works as well
mircea_popescu: they have a little ceremony at the wedding, people steal her off
mircea_popescu: i mean that literally.

mircea_popescu: Namjies i dont understand where you figure he gets the empire to fuck with the issuers
Namjies: If he can't pay users without those double payments back tho, it harms the innocent users tho.
dub: yeah, was about to say idiot tax
JWU42: I guess there is enough hatred of nef that users vview it as an asshole tax on nef
Namjies: Because you don't own the extra funds?
mircea_popescu: he send the payment, you provided the address.
mircea_popescu: possibly not to the degree
