Are currency/monetary base economic systems coming to their logical end?

  • No ethnographic studies have shown that any present or past society has used barter without any other medium of exchange or measurement, and anthropologists have found no evidence that money emerged from barter.

    What would be an example of the barter economy you’re certain exists? How do they overcome the need for double coincidence?

    • How come Israel don't use Mossad to take out all of the Hamas leadership similar to what they did after Munich? Would this not be better than bombing stuff into oblivion?

  • There is a large difference between war and genocide.

    But that’s what I’m asking you. Can one side achieve overwhelming victory, in your view, without you calling it a “genocide”?

    No, right?

  • Jesus Christ, are you all truly this stupid all the time?

    Some israelian official told the death tool was 1200 in November 2023.

    Obviously there are figures for Israeli casualties, civilian and military. There are no figures for Gazan civilian casualties.

  • Does war exist, in your view? Or is it always a case of the winner murdering the loser, unjustifiably?

  • Israel is a right wing extremist state

    Large portions of Israel have been radicalized by enduring eight decades of genocidal violence from colonialist Arabs, funded by an extremist faith in Iran that holds the extinction of the Jews as a key requirement of imminentizing their eschaton. I don’t deny that. But post October 7, it’s hard to argue they’re overreacting to it. Maybe the Arab neighbors of Israel should try something besides mass killing Jews?

    They do not fight nazis, they are the nazis.

    No, they fight Nazis. Arab Nazis who torture Jews, Arab Nazis who hide in schools, hospitals, and refugee camps. Arab Nazis who turn humanitarian aid into missiles to kill Jews. The exact same Arabs who allied with Hitler in World War II (proven historical fact) and love him to this day.

    No, that’s made up. There’s no known figure for civilian deaths in Gaza.

  • No you asked why hadn't they raised prices before.

    Sorry, you’ve misunderstood the question. Obviously there have been price increases in the past.

    If a company, on this present date, raises the price of a widget they sell to $X.XX, I’m asking you why it wasn’t already at that price. Why had they waited?

  • If the paper says something the abstract doesn't then it's a bad paper or a bad abstract.

    The whole point of an abstract is that it’s not the entire paper, stupid

  • I've gone to every link you've provided to me and none of them were a UN study.

    Because you won’t read past the abstract. I can only give you the sources; I can’t make you read them.

    Also a funny story, one link I provided you had multiple IPC reports.

    You didn’t provide a link.

    t. Or you wouldn't have said something so demonstrably false about Gazan aid being turned around.

    It’s not a news story about aid being turned around in Gaza. It’s a news story about aid being turned around at the Gazan border because it contains impermissible dual-use items that are forbidden in aid shipments to Gaza.

    Finally, accusing UNRWA of incompetence while blocking and attacking their aid convoys has been an Israeli propaganda line for most of the past 10 months.

    You’re correct that it’s propaganda but you’ve misattributed it. It’s Hamas propaganda.

  • Oh you see, you could have asked that way up there.

    I did.

    Economics actually talks quite a lot about monopoly power and rent seeking.

    Do you? This is the first you’ve mentioned either. What’s the “monopoly” in the situation we’re discussing?

    Except when you’re fighting against those who fight them. Like Israel.
