**mishaderidder.eth**: Yes, yes this is actually true! Not going to say told you so ;) lol. New gov was installed Monday; it’s very neo-lib, they’re not having it. It was to be expected. Otherwise this had never made it through the senate. And pretty sure some people would have made a case at the high court (again haha). It’s a democracy after all. 

**mishaderidder.eth**: Btw they’re not going back to the drawing board I think, they’re just going take the unrealized gains part out. And also the soup would never have been served as hot as folks on X would like you to believe :)
