      I think you need to look in his ass, where he pulled that number from. These communist types really believe all this nonsense and just handwave all the famines, civil terrors, or just the fact that no communist system ever became a success. its all just for the common good, right?

        Consider not assuming everyone on the internet is a guy. Also consider reading the English translation of growth crystal.

          Yes they’re trying to sell you on the idea of creating a dual currency system. They make a lot of money from doing that.
