Buses in my city are all electric, and green powered :)


As long as any amount of electricity is produced in ways that pollute, the bus is partially responsible for pollution. Even if the bus itself was charged using, say, a windmill, that electricity could have instead supplied something that had to be supplied using coal or oil.

flatulence while walking outside causes pollution too. stay inside and don't pollute you monster!


True, but unless you have some sort of an air scrubber in your home, your farts ultimately end up outside anyway.

Yeah I've watched a video about one a week ago, I think those videos should explain to me, but thanks for the help! I appreciate it.


Do you guys think there is a higher chances for a coin that is 1 dollar to get to 100 dollars, rather than Litecoin to go from 200 dollars to 20k?


The former yields faster gains, but they can drop to worthless much easier. Closest anology I can think of is penny stocks, higher risk higher reward.

I think theres a better chance that litecoin shows significant gains than a particular random coin blowing up

Well it depends what coin... Req, Cardano, Ripple, Ark, Lumens, and XRB are some that are interesting investments.
I think I will for sure invest in Ltc, and probably Eth too. But then I will pick 3-4 of these coins listed above. Then again some of these coins aren't even on the nano -.-

1. Not every comment everyone makes has to be directly related to one point of your choosing. If i want to talk about some guy someone else brought up i am more than free to do so without it being some fallacy you cant decide on.
2. Its part of his demonstrated extreme bias against cryptocurrency and undermines his supposed position of expertise.
3. Its from the very same interview of something dro was talking about, mere seconds apart.


Lol these points are pure shite, surely you can do better? :lol:

Even after this happening many times previously I'm still surprised at how bad some of your points are. I said I owned bitcoin so how exactly does that translate to having an 'extreme bias' against cryptocurrencies?

Nobody is saying you can't talk about Stiglitz's other views in the same conversation, but what you did was to use that point (can you even call it a point?) to demean a totally separate argument. That is a fallacy, notwithstanding the heavy implication that I would agree with the view that bitcoin should be illegal (I don't).

It's obviously quite apparent to a lot of people here that you have trouble accepting viewpoints that differ in any significant way to your own.

Posting that I have a supposed position of expertise suggests you have some kind of inferiority complex when discussing economic issues. It would explain why you try to get one over on me in any way you can, but it's ok man I have a degree in the subject and keep well informed on some stuff but I'm far from an expert.

Carrying on about my points being "bad" for no justifiable reason and making shit up about me is not an argument.
You were clearly in the wrong and are being a bitch because i said something relevant you didn't like.

I already explained to you why you are wrong. not going to repeat myself again. Your delusions are not equivalent to what i mean and say in reality.
You brought up that schmuck and i decided to comment on what he said. Thats perfectly legitimate. I didnt say it necessarily meant its not a bubble or anything like that.

for fucks sake i wasnt even talking about you with that comment.
go back and read what i actually said and try to keep an open mind instead of being focused on offense taking.

Believe it or not people can think something shouldn't be done, and still advise on how to use it effectively.

His position on if cryptocurrencies should be legal is irrelevant to whether or not it would be prudent to sell at this time.
