Question: Is there enough gold on the planet to back the amount of currency we have?
I don’t even know. But just think about the fact that our money is a fiction, a promise that is subject to manipulation in order to extract the only thing that we have to offer, our labor. I’m starting to sound like a commie.
Maybe this is why we need to mine asteroids!
yes, fiat money is a promissory note. I don’t see an alternative yet.
