Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
Mark my words: they're going to use the money they collect to do the same that supermarkets do. Supermarkets try their best to pay suppliers after like 6 months after they've sold their stock, and in the meantime they use that money to gamble on the stock market, making more money out of the supplier's money.
The US gov is going to try to do this but because they're incompetent buffoons they're going to dump it all on raw milk futures or some crypto scam, and lose it all.

US govt can print all the USD they want, this is probably govt padding some administration fief complied with xenophobia.
Didnt know that, I thought supermarkets paid for products up front from wholesale like smaller stores
Supermarkets tend to have a quite concentrated sector and a lot of buying power, so they can easily crush suppliers
The US is just 50 different scams hiding under a trenchcoat
Each state is its own pyramid scheme.
Scams all the way down. Or up. The US is just a scam Ouroboros.
A snake eating its own ass as Hakim said.
I read that comment in his voice
US visa already costs a minimum of 185 dollars and depending on the type there are additional charges up to like 500 dollars, let alone the cost of travel if you have to be interviewed in person in their embassy. now you have to put a 250 dollar deposit upon sending your application? what if you get denied or refused entry? a typical visa application can be in clearance for months what happens to your money in that time? what about adminstrative error?
at this point if your country doesn't have a visa agreement with the US you can just forget about it.
Making the US visa program have a cover charge like it's some shitty night club EDM show is extremely on brand.
That's so amusing I can't find a way to start my comment about it. Let's say it's just what it is.
However, the refund process remains unclear, and immigration lawyers warn it could involve months of paperwork, delays, or even denials if technicalities aren’t followed.
the landlordification of tourism
This doesn't apply to countries in the US visa waiver program, which is basically 
. It's a non-US aligned tax.
