            The Americans already did, for the promise of cheap eggs and an ethnostate.

                  I do not for one minute believe that $100 is buying a couple of Keurig coffee makers, unless those guys are going ridiculously hard on the razor-and-blades model.

                  checks Amazon

                  Yeah. The least-expensive Keurig coffee maker on Amazon is $60:

                  https://www.amazon.com/Keurig-K-Mini-Single-Serve-Coffee/dp/B07GV2S1GS

                  It looks like they go up to $126.

                  It's not, these are the promises, like cheap eggs, affordable groceries and $1.98/gallon gasoline.

                      Strange closing paragraph.

                      the highest they’d been since 1996 when 80% of Americans stated that they would live under an Islamic theocracy in exchange for a $50 gift card to Radio Shack.

                            If 5 million USD can buy you a US citizenship, why can’t I sell mine for 5 million USD? I will gladly do so, and I bet I won’t be the only one.
