Don't burn it, but lets make money

Don't burn it, but lets make money
National heritage at it's finest in a Ferengi culture. This piece would be in a museum naywhere else, not auctioned off to some rich fuck.

Quote:ALBANY — A U.S. flag from one of the thousands of Allied ships that delivered troops and supplies to the Normandy beaches is among the hundreds of D-Day and other World War II artifacts being auctioned in New York City on Thursday, a day before the 70th anniversary of the invasion.

There is no respect for our flag. I agree - it should be in a museum. Or rather it should be at the Smithsonian Institute.

What if some guy buys it to use as a doormat. Then there will suddenly be wailing.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

It might have historical significance just because it was made in the US instead of in China. That makes it a rarity and a possible collector's item.

Why shouldn't a ferengi culture buy from the lowest bidder?
It's all about the money! Money, money, money!
Australia has outsourced it's police uniforms to China and most of our military uniforms also.
America will buy its nukes from ebay China one day!

I think it's in our ape dna .
Even if the world became border less, we'd still be xenophobic.

It's tribalism. Even from suburb to suburb.

I agree with you ...  but religion and deism is also part of our dna, but that doesn't stop me rejecting it and disliking it Smile
