Thank you , yesterday was a reminder of how much there is to lose by drinking . I ' ll never get that day back . I held this lady ' s baby I wonder if she knew how drunk I was . UGH . Onward and upward ! And I will not drink today . <| sep |> As soon as he feels like he ' s not making a difference , he ' s going to stop . First two games he won 162 and 163 against silvers then novas . He ' s gonna treat it like he treated his r 8 hero . He got to the point where he wasn ' t making an impact , so he said the challenge was a loss . <| sep |> Just bought one thank you for bringing it up . <| sep |> I agree with most of the letter but as usual , the funding part provokes me to respond Financing A substantial portion of the cost of the BIG grant should be financed through a tax on extractives paid into a dedicated wealth fund . Other funding options include progressive recovery through the tax system above income tax thresholds . The BIG Campaign emphasises the need for domestic resource mobilisation . I think taxing extraction legitimizes it . To pay the tax , corporations may skimp in other ways , by disposing of waste cheaply at a greater cost to the environment . I think we must voice money creation as a funding source . If corporations are taxed they will try to avoid the tax . You enter a game of trying to police them , thus you pay ppl to enforce tax laws . The corporations may take out their frustration at the tax on the environment . They ' re taxing me so I ' ll just dump this mercury in this stream when they aren ' t around . I think we must be clear that the mining companies are funded by money created by the financial sector . Instead of constraining ourselves to funding basic income from taxes on privately created money , we should simply create public money .
