Usually when people mention making things equitable, they mean monetarily almost as a singular focus. There is often zero regard for talent, effort, sacrifice, assumed risk et cetera, just a hand, out for more money.
I’m curious, what do you do for work?
I’m my own boss. I make up my own hours. I trade currencies. And you?
I think it was deceased anthropologist David Graber who said he could find no evidence that barter existed as a primary form of exchange. Not that it never happened but not as a main feature of an exchange of goods and services.
Same, but I employ multiple people across multiple offices of a financial services brokerage, and trade securities for fun on my own time. It’s a little different than holding a Bitcoin purse as an effectively unemployed guy, but I have some of those too.
What I’m hearing is you live in a vacuum and don’t have a grasp on equitable effort and ability commensurate to output. Or am I wrong?
And you know where this doesn’t happen? Countries with a single-payer system.
No, they just have the shit taxed out of them instead, whether or not they need the services.
Have you ever gone out into the wilderness at night with a lot of pot, smoked it, then looked at the sky?
If I did, I think I’d be thinking about what currency even is, man. Lookin up at that moon, just wondering why we even have money. Then, a shooting star.
No you don’t.
Leave me out of your idiocy dude. I’m pretty sure I was discussing that with someone smarter than me to gain a better understanding of the overall use and function, not leaving a bait trail for your retarted ass to follow and get lost on.
Back to neat stuff about Maine, one of our islands ended up being called “Ragged Arse Island” for a while due to English butchering of the native Abenaki language.
People have also lived their lives on that island, even today, surely doing a fair bit of bartering and other things that happen on islands off the coast of Maine.
Still pay less and if you have sovereign currency, taxes are not needed to pay for it. In fact, federal taxes in this country pay for no program. Get updated or be forever lost in a world of economic ignorance.
Still doesn’t make it not true.
In what way?
Other than a huge tax called “inflation.”
Doesn’t make it pertinent to the conversation me & NJord were having either.
You’re trying to force a false premise into a real conversation that happened three weeks ago. So while obvious, it is irrelevant, because this is not a single payer country.
Now please, just shut up. The first rule of holes: Stop digging, definitely applies here.
No it is not single-payer but if it was.
No, they don’t pay less. This, for maybe the 1 billionth time, has been discussed in this thread. With links to an article sharing sourced, objective material illustrating the fact.
Lol
They been saying the same shit for decades trying to scare people. I just watched Hannity talk about how we are stealing from our children and grandchildren. Man how long has this tired old line been repeated ad nauseum through the years, I mean decades. They’ll be saying the same shit when the debt reaches 50 trillion and it will but guess what nothing happens.
But they do go bankrupt because we pay less.
Better than being a lemming like you.
Yes, telling me about your thoughts on an economic school of thought would be a waste of time because you have no idea what you are talking about.
Again, please outline your economic overhaul. In detail. Apparently from the currency basis as a starting point. Let’s hear it.
