| TheRealMafoo said: I think the reason, is paper money is worthless. In the old days, what you had in your hand had intrinsic value. If you had a 20 dollar coin, the coin had 20 dollars worth of gold in it. The best way to get a very Christian country to feel safe with paper money that has no intrinsic value, is to say “in god we trust” on it. Today it’s meaningless. I don’t care either way if it fell off or stayed on the next design. |
Your $60 console game doesn't have $60 worth of gold in it either. It is however the value people believe its worth.
Tease.
