@calmeilles No worries, he'll manage to wreck the other purchase and its value just the same.
@calmeilles if you paid $1 for a broken, dog-shit country like the US then you paid too much
@calmeilles American politicians have an absurdly high return on investment.
@calmeilles I mean that's assuming he didn't purchase the one by purchasing the other.
