<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 712850, member: 3011&quot;]We&#039;ve been over this before.&nbsp; Money doesn&#039;t have to have intrinsic value.&nbsp; That&#039;s obvious because ours doesn&#039;t.&nbsp; But one of the functions of money is to act as a store of value, and fiat money doesn&#039;t do this very well over time, particularly in a world of trillion dollar deficits funded by monetizing the debt.&nbsp; For someone living paycheck to paycheck, it doesn&#039;t really matter because the money is spent before it depreciates.&nbsp; For someone trying to save money to spend in the future, it&#039;s a big deal.&nbsp; We live in a world where a currency that maintained or even increased in purchasing power would be an enormous benefit to some people.&nbsp; People can buy gold or silver to try to keep up, but let&#039;s face it, we are speculating.&nbsp; A sound currency such as the one Mr. Price suggested would make life more comfortable for millions of ordinary people.&nbsp; And what could possibly be wrong with that?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
