March 20, 20232 yr Author How much money do the banks make each day just covering dollars to gold, and that just goes in their pockets. Think about that. If the dollar was still tied to gold the backs would not be making billions of dollars doing nothing, hmm,

David Buster-you realize what you keep describing is just a business contract which exist but don't technically transfer money...they just set the terms by which money will be later transferred. I perform X and upon Y, you me $Z. It sounds like the old "company store" scam that employers would use a century or so ago. Pretty sure that was made illegal, too. Or fair coupons. Which is legal still.

Go ahead and see if Jimmy the Fish in the dark alley will do it for you. The banks charge a fee because they standardize the regulatory exchange rates where are market based. Hence the vacillating value of precious metals. Supply. Demand. Scarcity. All that jazz....

Have you been watching John Wick again? Sir, you are treading on thin ice here. I love John Wick. That poor man. He loved his wife and after she gave him that puppy and everything that happened after (I'm not going to spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen the series) and he is just a haunted sad man. Just breaks my heart. And RIP Lance Reddick. But, to wit: Lance was real and John is just a character in a movie and if the OP steps near a copy machine or scanner with real money or attempts to lay hands on a certain Pantone color of ink, he will be hearing from people who don't joke around with respect to funny money. If you want to barter, use Thin Mints. That's the kind of green that gets respect.
March 20, 20232 yr Why the hell do I feel like we are going to get some stupid ass QAnon thing from Facebook any moment now proclaiming what the OP wants to do is perfectly legal, as long as there is gold fringe on the flag in the room where the currency is printed?

Do I need to put something on it that cites the law that says this is legal, in order to use it? Or wooluld it be the barter system. If it is not legal what if I get a contract to sign for the other person I am doing barter with, that says they acknowledge there is no exchange of money taking place. Also it will not look like real money. User name checks out I think what you are talking about are called tokens; they have been replaced cards and virtual cards. You should really just think like it's the 2020's and make your own crypto.

March 20, 20232 yr Weird Lobo tangent here: This made me think of Taylor Kitsch's character from True Detective season 2, where he sneaks into an orgy to find evidence of crimes and grabs a bunch of paperwork out of an office. The episode ends with them driving away and the other cops asking him what he got. Some dramatic music is playing and he goes "these contracts, signatures all over them!" I somehow can't find a gif of that online, which is a shame because everything about it was incredible.

Where did Dorothy get that handbasket she was carrying throughout Oz? Her house gets tossed around by a tornado, comes crashing down in Munchkinland, and she thinks to grab a basket when she walks out the door? Not really believable.
