I'm not going to attempt to further define spam, I know it when I see it.
But if you want a rough rule of thumb, ask yourself: is anyone on /f/ at all interested in this
shit?

I don't ask that question because that's not how "spam" is defined. "Spam" is defined as junk. If
it's junk then there needs to be an explanation as to how it's junk, not people FEELING if it is.

I actually defined "spam" as junk. That's not a loaded question. I said EXPLAIN how is flash this
junk? The burden of proof should be with you, unless you advocate a ban/reporting happy stance. I
saw the thread on /q/, no explanation was given and people were calling it "spam". It sounds like
"Ad Hominem".

>So nobody really knows how we will eventually get out of it.
I do! I know how the US will settle their debt and thus this "collapse" will be prevented.
Wait a few more years... Increasing the value of gold. Then bam, trade gold with (for example)
China in return of clearing the debts.
The US have so much gold reserves they could easily pay their debt. The only reason why they
haven't is because they either 1) are waiting for the value of gold to go up further, 2) think
they are too powerful to be forced to ever pay or, 3) know that gold is too valuable a resource
to be traded away no matter what.
>> [_] Anonymous 11/20/12(Tue)20:03 No.1813209
I think 2 could be true, but I don't think it's real because even if the US can't be attacked by
force, trading can be cut off to the country which will make life there miserable. And the US
can't really force a strong (modern) country to do anything either because they know that, thanks
to nukes, nobody will win. Even if the US would take over a country they know that their losses
would be too great, not to mention the effort it takes to hold power in a resisting nation.
If you think that the US can beat the crap of every country in the world, sure it might be true
that the US will win in the end but rest assured that both you, your family and everybody you
care about WILL die and not enjoy the victory.
So the only real reason I believe is 1, they wait. Note that gold doesn't really have to equal
their debt measured in US dollars. Gold is gold while USD or EUR or GBP is just currency. So
that's how this will end, gold will trade hands.

But, shhhh, it's a secret... No just kidding, spread the word. You heard it here first, straight
from my Swedish brain.
Durp.
Btw if you are wondering why gold is so damn valuable, just imagine how rare it is. Since the
beginning of man kind, ALL gold that has been mined, EVER, can fit inside a 20x20x20 meter cube.
Every crown, every jewellery, every coin... everything. 20 cubic-meters. That's not much.

The concept of money is corrupt or morally perverse since money only requires confidence to
exist, according to modern money mechanics. The concept of "trade" is corrupt because an
atmosphere of indifference, and cruelty is created because of the competitive nature of the
market. There is no paying back of the debt because every since dollar has interest attached to
the debt. If you were to pay back all the money in circulation right now, there would be no money
in circulation and you'd still owe the bank interest.

I believe it is, time will tell. Gold is more valuable than how much USD it is worth.

Quote: "What, then, makes these instruments — checks, paper money, and coins — acceptable at face
value in payment of all debts and for other monetary uses? Mainly, it is the CONFIDENCE people
have that they will be able to exchange such money for other financial assets and for real goods
and services whenever they choose to do so." -Modern Money Mechanics
Money is a religion, unless confidence and faith are different and unless it's not corrupt to
consider natural systems are externalities.

Trade is corrupt because sharing is nicer than propety. It enables people to have a casual
disregard for others. If you don't like sharing then don't share your thoughts on the internet
consider your thoughts as your own intellectual property(TM).

You don't counter my argument you give a throwaway line: "Money is just another trading good, and
it shall always be so" ignoring the fact that money and trade is corrupt because of the social
atmoshphere of indifference and cruetly that is generated because of the free market. Unless
being uncaring is good and you can prove this with science.

Yes, but we can't trust someone else with the products of our hard work, even if they trust us
with theirs, because they might just take their products and ours away at any given time, for
personal gain.

What? 1 cubic metre is per definition 1 metre in height, 1 metre in width and 1 metre in depth.
And how you get 400*20 to 8001 I don't have a clue.
fort knox in the us holds 4581 tonnes of gold. in mid-2012 that much is valued at about 234923
millions USD
the value of gold has increased by 600% since the year 2000. since less and less is being mined
it is not unreasonable to think its value will continue to rise
its funny since gold was worth about the same for like 50 years before that
