Also people who think bankers were not regulated have it ass backwards.

@ silva.
I haven't ignored any question. What i've been doing is real world shit...

I say money isn't necessary and you counter that with a question about people selling stuff... When there's no form of money?
Literal wtf

I give up trying tbh.
Believe what you want.

How the fuck do you expect to have any form of economy with no trade?

If money was gold/silver or whatever else of physical value then it is constrained by physical limits which bankers cannot dick with. It is the only regulation govt ever need to have in regards to money but now the crap has gone on for so long the game isn't so much as tilted as falling off the table altogether. A small handful have 50% of the entire planetary GDP.
It doesn't need regulating now so much as a complete slate clean, its a complete joke of a situation

You're inferring there is no trade.
Tbh this is a topic for a hypothetical future situation with no present precedence and you're throwing present situation straws at it.
I've seen it thousands of times now and its still woefully stupid to watch

So now you're advocating local trade only?



Or are we going to start posting our precious metal payments all over the globe with no instant transactions outside or local vicinity? No internet payments or anything like that? Bit of a queue getting your wages if you work for a large company. That much hard cash on site every pay day? I spots potential for abuse. Especially in this day and age> I can see counterfeiting being rife with 100% physical money as well.



You know the not being backed by/redeemable in gold argument as well? Complete bullshit.



People don't need gold or silver these days, what they gonna do with it? As for those who would still like to redeem their notes in gold, its quite easy. You just buy gold with your money. Not redeemable in gold. lol.



The system ALLOWS bankers to dick with money as you put it. REGULATION is needed to prevent it happening. DEREGULATION is the last thing we need.

I've asked the same question numerous times no without answer. Without an answer I can only assume no trade. If I am wrong please correct me, please show me what I'm missing.



I trade petrol, you trade soap. You want petrol but I don't want soap. What do?

What you are talking about is the standard left wing authoritarian response.

If you want to end people dicking with money then you make it physical.

Yes it would turn the clock back but that is the price you must pay.

Again I don't see any govt ever enacting it any more than some more stupid regulations that got us in the shit to start with.
Gov works for the elite, it always has

At least you admit that a physical currency only isn't compatible with a modern world, ignoring the other issues it brings of course.

This modern world as you call it was moulded by the screwed up situation to begin with.
How you expect to solve the problem with the same level of thinking that caused it in the first place is beyond me.
Its something I keep seeing in authoritarians.

What you keep seeing andy, is not called authoritarianism, its called sense.

You can say it isn't from now til doomsday which is precisely where we are heading regardless of meanderings and musings on here
