DESCRIPTION

In this episode, we scrutinize the many failures of the American State relating to puppycide, the Postal Service, and the creation and protection of "sovereign" currency.  Why has the United States Postal Service survived for nearly a decade of multi-billion-dollar annual losses?  And why is a State Representative proposing the absolute ban of cryptocurrencies in America?  Let's take a look!
