Snowshoe, please be careful w/r to whatever you might wish to note about shutting down efforts in the name of for-greater-good at the cost of ending jobs for the masses; lest you are also accused of being elitist Message 31430891 :0/

:0) in the mea time, yes, I think shitting down the ivory trade is a good and proper move for a lot of very good and overarching reasons.

Coincidentally the few ancient ivory items in my possession, stationary container, brush pen holder, table napkin holder, chopsticks, etc should become more precious.

Come to ponder on the issues, I think ‘they’ should also shut down all gold mining, but allow gold tailings project to proceed unhindered, and if doable, subsidise the tailings projects as environmentally sound initiatives.

There are so many ways to look at a situation, and then there our our own and each unique way, namely the correct way :0)

shut down some mines in late 2017 for greater good. Chinese bitcoin miners eye sites in energy-rich Canada


as China clamped down on cryptocurrencies



While Beijing has not issued any official edict on the bitcoin mines, two Chinese miners told Reuters that local authorities had grown more unwilling to allow expansion and had started to shut down some mines in late 2017, as China clamped down on cryptocurrencies.

Last September, Chinese authorities banned so-called initial coin offerings and ordered Beijing-based cryptocurrency exchanges to halt trading.

“We, and from what I understand many of our peers, are already making plans to go overseas,” said Li Wei, chief executive of ZQMiner, a Wuhan-based company that sells bitcoin mining equipment and has mines in three Chinese provinces

Reactions 1you are not to going to see in TV:

I am leaving the US as I cannot accept the treatment of the US President.
A human being cannot be subject to these offences and still remain here in the US.
I came here 5 years ago, and have worked hard and earned money, but this is too much.
I am going back to my country, which is a shithole but it is my land.

Reactions 2 you are not to going to see in TV:

My name is Arild Olsen. As soon as I heard that DJT welcomes Norwegians like me, I immediately went to the US embassy here in Oslo and got a visa.
My goal is to get the job these shithole guys are doing in the US
The US needs guys like me. Not the Haitians and Africans.
