We have people in Calgary who are stealing copper. They are moving out of the city to find more copper, usually wire. It's now a bylaw, all scrap metal yards have to register people who bring in copper for cash.

All copper pennies in Canada are 95-98% copper up until 1996. After that they are now 98% zinc and as of 2000 they are steel.

I think every town in the US should start a Chinese factory, making won tons and fortune cookies, paper kites, fireworks, and kewpie dolls. They should work for 5 dollars a day and food and live in tents. And allow machines to do most of the work.

In 15 years, the Chinese will send over white flags written on them, "We Surrender to the Yanqui Imperialists." It will be in Chinese, which by that time we will be able to read.
