The Germans have the biggest military budget in the EU (post-Brexit) and only spend half of what NATO requires of their military. The historical irony will note that when World War 3 started, Russia just took whatever it wanted, perhaps even Germany, in [11:15] DaemonFC a Hitler-style grab, because Europe didn't do the bare minimum and make sure they had working tanks and attack helicopters in case this day ever arrived." [11:15] DaemonFC Angela Merkel rolled her eyes and kept spending half the minimum that NATO requires, figuring the US would intervene at some point if war were to break out. [11:16] DaemonFC For the last 70+ years, Europe has been so decadent and corrupt that that's been their entire defense strategy. [11:16] DaemonFC Figure that the US will get involved if they come under attack, shortchange their defense budgets, and spend on welfare programs, and then mock the United States pretty openly while at the same time pointing at "treaty obligations" to defend them. [11:17] DaemonFC Of course, treaties always work out very well. [11:18] DaemonFC I predict that many people in the US will "feel bad" about what's going on "over there". [11:18] DaemonFC But that there will be a big movement to stay out of Europe's problems. [11:18] DaemonFC It would only be the third time.

[11:25] DaemonFC Yet more, Uphold did not issue 1099-B tax forms by the IRS deadline 8 days ago and is now in violation of the United States Internal Revenue Code and puts all of their customers at risk of a tax audit by forcing them to figure out their own Capital Gains taxes to report to the IRS.
