Your tirades remind me of Vladimir Lenin. Shortly after the Russian revolution, Lenin abolished money as an obsolete relic of the past. Russians who lived on the farm ate, while those in the city starved. People like yourself who think they can use a pen and a few laws to deny human nature, as displayed over thousands of years, always seem to end in tears. Your drug buddies doubtless find your discourses profound and insightful. But with enough lines of cocaine, they could be held spellbound by a chimpanzee. .

"Why? Why cant the medium of exchange be an electronic coin issued by a world bank that we all turn our trust over too that it can't be counterfieted." Why would we do this? Because we can't trust the current caretakers of money? Are you saying those very same people can be relied upon to create a foolproof system which we THEN could trust? In the end, it's the reality of the world and of human nature rather than the wish for what it COULD be that will rule the day, regardless of whether or not individuals understand why. I personally WANT their to be great disbelief at this time because that is necessary for cheap accumulation.
