the gold standard was a good thing though as was having a smaller federal government that wasn't
laden with debt as was not having an income tax
bring back the gold standard, close down the stock markets and the fed

Anyone with any real economic sense recognizes that reputation is the true underlying factor that
all money is based on.
Using gold as a substance for currency is ultimately as arbitrary as any physical or immaterial
currency, but with the added consequence of monopolizing a genuinely useful metal with useful
properties and inflating the value in a world that is exponentially growing in worth.

So the US/West has another decade or so tops before total deflation.

I get that you're trying to be clever, but you come across as an idiot if anything.
The US has a vast wealth of untapped resources at its disposal, it controls the vast majority of
the internet, and has an indomitable foothold in space. Your gay little fantasy is not going to
come true.

...that currency represents THE ABILITY TO DO WORK.
THAT is what "money" is, it's a marker, a token that represents the ability to do work, to
contribute to the common welfare.
You wouldn't know this though, taking your college courses in Keynesian Economics.
Keynes was a globalist. Keynes was a shill for the Utopia.
Think hard on it; all currency is not about reputation, but about service. No one person can do
all aspects of Necessity, therefore a token is needed to trade among those who perform
specialized services, such that all are served their necessities.
Gold standard IS arbitrary, but as such, a universally accepted token, inasmuch as the difficulty
in obtaining such represents a specialized service.
Fuck, how can people be so dim as not to understand this?
>B...BUT MUH ENTITLEMENTS!
Oh, riiight. THAT.
Carry on.

The point completely sailed over your head.
Bartering can exist with or without currency.
Currency, however, can only be established so long as the people backing it can maintain a
reputation. This is the same reason why a confederate dollar is completely worthless, because the
organization that established and supported it lost viability.
You're so focused on the individual transactions that you've lost sight of how the encompassing
system is established.

If you treat everyone like a troll, then you lose the actual fun that's available.
Bait is effective for a reason, because smacking down idiots is satisfying. Distinguishing
beating bait and substance is part of the game and you're missing out.
