Actually, it need not be in this day and age.

Just as we have ebay for auctions, we could have a similar place for commercial barter exchanges. IN fact, I'd be surprised if something like that doesn't already exist.


Jeezus you dumb shit, eBay has nothing to do with barter. People are trading goods for MONEY not other goods.

Are you REALLY proposing we go to a barter system? Great, I'll sell my DVDs when I find someone that has a bushel of corn to trade. Then I'll trade the corn for a gallon of gas, unless I need dog food, then I have to find someone else to trade with. Total efficiency...

You guys are nuts. "Lets ditch the banks... it's efficient!".

What's next?
