Using up 1500 tons of platinum would also have the effect of setting back manufacturing and and healthcare for about a thousand years.

We don't have an awful lot of platinum.

We don't have a lot of lulz like this either.  I am willing to take that risk.

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

We have to find a host who is willing to accept payment in platinum first.

Cain,
no compromise, ever.

WE DEMAND A RETURN TO THE PLATINUM STANDARD.

Isn't the current supply of platinum able to fill two bath tubs only?

You're all fools for not converting to platinum standard before the pendulum swings in its direction.  I've been investing all of my money in platinum standard since I was 10.  I have .00024 ounces of PURE platinum.  Platinum is the only medium that continues to rise.  It's at a all time high.  My safe (combination 682448265489618 (binary for ahahahahaha)) buried in the third floorboard down and seventh floorboard in from the rightmost cabinet by the stove is the sole depository of my worldly wealth, which, unlike you FEDERAL RESERVE STANDARD idiots, is actually manifest and verifiable.

Like you, I also planned in advance. I actually managed to hoard way more than that paltry amount. Instead I have a whopping .00050 ounces of pure platinum... except mine is in a shoe-box under the toilet at 1060 W. Addison in Chicago. But I mean I am certain it is pretty safe.  :evil:

LOL - this makes no coherent sense to me whatsoever, so it's entirely in keeping with pretty much everything else they've done since the heist was pulled off global economic crisis struck.

The idea of some lazy fat rich fuck, walking past me on a dark street with a trillion bucks in his/her pocket does strike me as something that ought to be encouraged, tho :lulz:

Lazy AND rich?

Keep dreaming, comrade.  :wink:

On average, the rich work less than the poor.
