No government in its right mind (oxymoron?) would support a barter system. Imagine calculating the taxes. Can't go there.
Bill Scott >>> "Mike Palij" <m...@nyu.edu> 04/23/10 9:20 PM >>> Perhaps you have heard of Republican candidate for U.S. Senate in Nevada Sue Lowden's plan for paying for health care: barter with your doctor, say, with a chicken for a doctor's visit. But you're probably thinking "Waitaminute Mike! That's just crazy talk! Wouldn't we have to know how many chickens we would have to bring if for different medical procedures?!?" Why, yes, you would but have no fear, you can use the "Lowden Plan Converter" to figure out how many chickens a procedure will cost: http://lowdenplan.com/ It will only be a matter of time before colleges and university go on the "chicken standard" -- it is not a matter of if but when. So, how long will it be before we hear: "Hey, how man chickens for an 'A' grade?" -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu P.S.
