[quote:Anonymous Coward 83740369:MV81MTY3NTM0Xzk0OTM5MzU4XzczQUM1RjYz] [quote:Anonymous Coward 82309813:MV81MTY3NTM0Xzk0OTM3MDc0X0FBQjVCOEEw] Endless innovation, community, and sharing. [/quote] [b][color=darkred]No, CHAOS. You finish your work week and boss asks you, do you want a leg of lamb? or would you rather have lumber? How about some nice kitchen faucet? BARTER, which, if there is no more medium of exchange, is what it all devolves into, is the most MISERABLE, INEFFICIENT system of trade imaginable. These hippie dreaming, dumbbells have NO IDEA how bad that could get. They imagine some heavenly commune, which has been tried OVER and OVER and OVER and has NEVER worked, because PEOPLE are involved. We have already let these assholes bring America to the brink of ruin, DO YOU WANT TO PUT YOUR VERY LIFE IN THEIR HANDS? I would MUCH rather have a BROKEN system that WORKS, than CHAOS, which DOES NOT WORK AT ALL. [/color][/b] [/quote]
