It says here that your country uses something called "fiat currency." Why would you use an intrinsically worthless measure of wealth?
>>
>>78104987
Because having a gold-backed currency wouldn't allow the rampant lending and debt cycles necessary to empower the Zionists.
>>
>>78104987
Because wealth is a mere subjective human illusion that does not objectively exist in the universe.
>>
Fiat currency is stupid but the argument that we need to get rid of it because its "intrinsically worthless" is retarded. Gold is just as worthless; the only things you can say are actually valuable are the things we need to survive, like water, in which case there's hardly any scarcity (with desalinization).

Gold is just as intrinsically worthless.

It's finite, which makes it literally infinitely more valuable than fiat currency.

>>78106281
My turds are both rare and scarce, do they have value?

>>78106281
fiat currency is finite too dumbass

>>78106281
Fiat is finite. There's only so much carbon.

>>78106883
more than fiat currency

>>78106890
only as finite as the fed wants it to be

>>78104987
>intrinsically worthless
Everything in the material world is intrinsically worthless. Worth is assigned. You need to give a practical argument about why we should assign worth to something other than fiat currency.

all wealth is technically worthless, money is an idea, gold was only valuable because we're like magpies.

the ideal form of currency is one issued based on work/industry/military strength/scientific research

>gold
>worthless

God you're such an idiot. There's more to gold than just jewelry.
Also it doesn't matter if it's valuable or not. All that matters is that it holds it value. Gold is reletively stable.

Can I have it, if it is of no use to you?
