It appears you missed my argument, since you did not address it.
A meme coin costs nothing and sells for something. Something for nothing has a tinny ring.

Mainly because very, very few ever get prosecuted and go to jail.
I'm all for changing that. Who's going to do it? I have no idea.
It may very well be time for a convention of the Sates and address our shortcomings in the Republic.
No *** allowed in those meetings!
