I might have made 5. One for each letter of “Debut” and put a little piece of the jersey itself in there. I’m sure the first game worns are usually saved but topps has the money to arrange something. Not like people really wear them.

I saw a game worn Harden jersey in a Houston sports store being sold and it was gigantic. Or at least it seemed to be next to the guy selling it. But I’m not small.

I guess it was too long since I played real ball with people that size. Our high school center was bigger than Harden but I guess I forgot how big his jersey had to be.

Please enlighten us with which economic model you would replace capitalism.

Anyways. Yeah I have no interest in cards. I would only pick one up if I thought everyone severely underrated some player that would later go on to be great. And I certainly wouldn't gamble with packs.

why does the model have to be replaced completely? what's to stop having boundaries, ethics, and reasonable rules to limit the current economic model?

oh yeah, greed. our entire government sold out a long time ago and is currently just a puppet to the utlra wealthy.

This isn't even a purely capitalistic society. It's a capitalist-socialist society.

The amount of social program spending in this country that we already have to prop up low income people is astounding.

I'm going to keep it 100 and try to reach you yet again.

You don't even really know what you're talking about nor do you know what you're complaining about.

When you mention greed specifically and allude to corruption what you're really complaining about is the human condition. Sorry buddy, you'll find that in every government throughout the world. But you want to complain about "late stage capitalism" because it's a parrot talking point and nothing more despite the fact that you are one of the biggest benefactors on the planet of capitalism as currently you are a United States citizen so you are one of the richest people on the planet.

There is widespread corruption in governments literally everywhere.

Here's income taxes paid by what percentage of people.

https://i.ibb.co/JYfnP9D/spending.png

Here's a breakdown of spending by dollar amount and spending %

My guess is you have personal problems you don't want to address and look for a scapegoat or some such nonsense rather than look in the mirror and ask yourself what you can do to improve your life. Might even be bad with money and debt, who knows?

Now in no way shape or form do I ever expect you to respond to this because by now your brain is having a breakdown and malfunctioning if you have even an honest bone in your body, but there it is nevertheless.

The top 5% of earners are paying well over half of all federal income tax collected and the overwhelming majority of spending goes towards social programs. Everyone today in a truly developed country has a substantially higher standard of living than anyone on the planet a mere 100 years ago and yet so many of us are unhappy. Why?

Because they can't help but look at the people around them and be jealous. Comparison is the thief of joy.

I will throw you one bone, however. The monetary system is designed to keep you and the country in debt.

People don't want delayed gratification. They want instant gratification and they don't want personal responsibility. As such, we will never get out of debt.

Good luck.
