inane - lacking sense or substance, empty, silly

I know the meaning of the word. No need to confirm the definition.

As for merely regurgitating all of those books I've read, it's kinda funny that none of them were willing to state that the whole concept of "money" is nothing more than a confidence game.

The only thing standing between our current economy and a full barter system, is the confidence that we place in those little pieces of colored paper that act as proxies for barter.

But again, you just don't get it, and probably are incapable of such abstract thought.

And speaking of lacking substance, reread your post. Prime example.
