I have not seen one message (other than your own) which relates to the President's skin tone. It appears to me that you are trying to stereotype gun merchants as racists. Please tell me that I'm misunderstanding your reason for including a reference to the President's skin tone. i don't think he was calling all gun merchants racist (though statistically some must be). do you think he was talking about you personally? stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding

we have very good computers that can process vast amounts of information. computers can/will be used to replace money by assembling 'barter trade routes' for anything we would like to build. stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding -

the critical bit here is 'when jacob comes in'. here the goods are not directly traded but there is a time element introduced. to represent this time element some sort of token will be given - saying 'i promise to give the bearer of this token a cow at the agreed date' - voila, money is created. stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding -

between simple barter and commodity money i would put another step - barter trading. a barter trader will know several other parties and swap one good for another between them to end up with a 'profit' stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding -

the problems you put forward also apply to monetary systems. if two parties have two products that they agree to directly barter (say five apples for four oranges) surely that is the perfect trade? - direct and immediate satisfaction of wants. stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding -

what do you mean 'one party has to suffer' if two parties agree to a straight barter? surely it's the perfect trade? stay away from moving propellers - they bite blue skies from thai sky adventures good solid response-provoking keyboarding -
