It's hilarious to me that the pinkos at the Times and at Columbia University actually consider this a bad development. Barter represents the original store-of-value concept. The guy saying he can pay for a movie ticket in cash but not corn is obviously not considering the possibility of corn-backed currency, which would certainly be preferable over Argentine pesos and even epistemologically superior to all fiat currencies, including the US dollar.
And of course, the Argentine government is not poo-pooing on the idea ... rather, they are looking at revising the tax code to relect the barter system. How quaint -- like a return to feudal times. --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use e-gold's Secure Randomized Keyboard (SRK) when accessing your e-gold account(s) via the web and shopping cart interfaces to help thwart keystroke loggers and common viruses.
