I'd be hesitant to give up monetary sovereignty to another organizing body.

That highly shackles the amount of fiscal policy space a federal government can use.

The ultimate irony being that the "national debt" is simply the tally of all interest bearing and non interest bearing dollars created by the government that haven't been taxed out of existence.

There's no scenario where we can't pay debt denominated in our own currency, unless the government chooses not to pay.

27" at 1440p for me personally. But I have two as my two primary monitors. Then I have a crappy old 720p 24" and 10" I currently forget the pixel density of. I want to say 2k

You already named my favorite sports movie: Slap Shot.

Fruit snacks if I want something sweet.

Chicken nuggets and tater tots if I want salty and savory
