70 mil is a drop in the bucket compared to how much we have already spent.

Oh, it's all too real. Money that could have bought free higher education and decent health care for every person in this country is gone, and all we have to show for it is a bunch of dead people and a whole lot of new terrorists and other people who hate America.
No surprise, though. The democrats stay up late thinking up new ways to capitulate to a singularly unpopular president.

Money used to be backed by something, like gold reserves. Now it's just pieces of paper that have value solely because the government SAYS it has value.
Money is total bullshit.
That being said, if they do away with paper money it will have a lot more value and will probably be what black market dealings go down in. Lulz.

Actually, no. Paper money is increasingly worthless in a barter economy. Jefferson Davis could tell you a thing or two about that, if he wasn't dead.

Right, I just mean if it became illegal to use paper money and all monetary transactions were digital or whatnot, paper money, ironically enough, leaves no paper trail and would be the best choice (especially if it was rare) for illegal trade and dealings.

But why would anyone in the black market want the now illegal paper money if they could only buy black market items with it? You couldn't even spend your black market money on a pint of B&Js.
