That is a pretty crazy price for 4 cobs of corn. I dont often say this, but that might be one thing that is cheaper in New Zealand lol.

About Sponors, I'll have to take time to have a look around. I probably would just do an online shop or try selling a few t-shirts or something. I am not sure. Or sell the sci-fi novel I wrote - however, I don't want to burden them with that lol

It sounds like, as far as living off of goodwill, you have done well. that is the ideal way to live - no inflation, and you get to build strong relationships - it is amazing that you don't have to both buy or cook food anymore!

About the democratic donors - I think most likely they had a team behind the scenes that were managing him - but there was a fraction split, so now they have a problem with him - mainly that the public knows now, the US and the world. Hard to keep the illusion that he is sharp as a tac, if he can't complete most sentences lol

About Trump - he is all about big industry, so whatever happens, I think there won't be any real change to any power structure behind he scenes - he will make a deal.

Thanks!
