Limitless Power?

Instead of a $400 contribution limit for the entire political movement as a whole, the legal limit now becomes $400 per person. Since there is no limit on the number of people who can do this, for most practical purposes, there is now no legal limit on the group. [More]
I pass this on to those of you who grok such things. I have tried, and I have some kind of mental block that takes me back 40+ years to pulling an all-nighter studying for an Econ midterm and reading the same paragraph over and over again with the same frustration as if I were trying to decipher hieroglyphs. If somebody said "blockchain" to me at this point, I'd probably burst into tears.

Well, I guarantee you a b*k*n is involved here. But I admit defeat as well. It may be because this guy is a much better CPA than he is an explanatory writer.

Speaking of explanatory writing skills for the masses, what in the world is a b*k*n?

Let me give a PowerVote explanation another try: It's the first in history citizen political action whip. It is based on a political strategy that is only practiced behind closed doors and is banned to the general public. It is built around a circular transaction so that it can free money from hidden and very complex laws that the courts haven’t sorted out the meaning of yet. It's all funded by a blockchain based money that most American know little about because the SEC prevents these types of offerings in the U.S. in most cases.

How’s that? Dang I didn't know it would be so easy once I put my mind to it.

Now that you understand how PowerVote is the equivalent of Kryptonite to incumbents that will allow us to chase them all around the capitol building, may I give you 6,000 PowerVotes coins for free and deposit them in opposition to Red Flag laws so we can put an end to this threat to our freedom?

Thanks!

b*k*n is short for a word that David explicitly said he really didn’t want to hear right now, one you used freely in your explanation. Oops.

The new “explanation” is still mystical gobbledegook (“circular transaction,” “courts and the SEC don’t want you to know this one weird trick!”) It sounds like the same kind of vague handwaving used by “Patriot information” groups that push theories about USC, admiralty courts, cardboard license plates, natural persons not subject to tax, your name in all caps without commas, “we can’t just tell you how it works, you have to study it yourself and come to the same conclusions,” and other magical thinking… thinking that lands you in court if you actually ever try to use it, while the group you paid for the “secret process” just says, “sorry, you did it wrong.”

Seeing as you couldn’t explain it properly given two chances, I believe I’ll pass.

The gobbledgook though true was satire.

If you really care, which I kinda doubt, we can slow this down and do it more thoroughly. It would help a lot if you first accepted the reality that just because you don't understand how a weapon works, doesn't mean it won't. This is a gun forum right? Guns seem to have come pretty far with very few understanding the chemistry of gun powder. Just point and shoot seems to work for a lot of people. That's PowerVote...point and shoot. Watch the lawmakers run.

But I can't resist explaining it if you care. First you need to know what a political whip is and how they work as in Majority/Minority whip. Pretty easy concept: one cowboy with one whip can drive a lot of cattle. Are you still with me?

Henry said...

At least I did care at one point. I had no difficulty understanding the mechanism of the “Assassination politics” lottery, not least because it was explained competently. If you’re up to explaining yours as competently, the place to do it is on your own website, not here.

I don't think anybody is listening including you so I'll let you go.
