    GOLD IS NO LONGER MONEY BECAUSE IT CAN’T BE

    —“I want to stress the importance of understanding gold is money, not an investment. With banks on Comex getting into greater difficulty it is increasingly likely the US Treasury and Exchange Stabilisation Fund will attack the gold price in an attempt to save Comex and the banks.”—Alasdair Macleod @MacleodFinance

    That’s false. Gold is a durable commodity. The transaction cost is too high to function as money. The fraud rate is too high to function as money. The scarcity is too high to function as money (there isn’t enough of it). It’s too open to manipulation to function as money.

    DISAMBIGUATION: ILLEGAL, LEGAL, COMMERCIAL, COMMONS

    Regarding: Alcohol, Pot, Other Drugs, Sex, Promiscuity, Prostitution, any unregulated behavior, attention-causing, or Hedonism (unregulated behavior) in general – there is a difference between illegality (prohibition), legalization (private and out of the commons) and commercializing (in the commons).

    Many if not all unregulated behavior can and should be removed from the commons. What people do in private is their own business.

    We share the commons.

    We don’t share private spaces.

    1) Commons are a non consumable capitalization from which everyone benefits – a park where you can raise small children cuts the cost of yard ownership for example. Lacking a park where you can raise small children increases the cost of homes and yards, driving people out of high investment parenting.

    2) Commons solve the problem of high investment parenting, without requiring high familial economic investment by every family. Families buy access to commons by high investment parenting, which creates incentive for the production of commons and their high returns.

    3) We use high investment parenting in the production of high investment commons. We use high investment commons to facilitate high investment parenting.

    4) This is what the middle working, and lower working classes sense is being stolen from them – the ability to use commons to produce high investment parenting. Best example is that they can’t afford to move away from malcontents by denying them access.

    5) Low investment parenting immigrants and classes, decrease the incentive to produce commons that are then consumed for purposes of other than raising families. Low investment parenting immigrants and classes increase consumption that is upwardly redistributable to the financial sector, and decrease production of commons as redistribution to

    6) Elites (advertising, media, financial, academic, political), will happily consume profits and income instead of investing in commons if lower working, working, and middle classes tolerate it.

    7) The laboring, lower working, working, middle, and increasingly upper middle class, will only tolerate it until the low hanging fruit of consumption has been exhausted, and the demand for commons is restored.

    8) Christianity is exceptional at producing respect for commons because behavior in the church environment (suppression of impulse) and the sacredness of the properties, extend to the commons.

    9) In the absence of universal christian indoctrination we must us the law to suppress consumption (destruction) of the incentive to produce high trust, ‘sacred’ commons, suitable for the raising of children. And exporting ‘exploratory’ (teen, young adult) behavior (pre-maturity) to labor (markets) sport(competition) and external (wild) commons.Updated Apr 27, 2020, 9:38 PM

    @judicialist @ComicDaveSmith That’s a nice bit of pilpul but changing the words doesn’t change the transaction. They would be very, very, very careful who they lent to. They would create shareholder agreements. The funding party would be bought out by the other party, and in the case of failure, liquidation.
