    Aha, nothing at all.
    I will.
    You said I assumed you were trying to witty.
    I've seen the constant drivel you inflict on this forum, so I would never assume wit from you.

    I tell you what, why don't you wait until you have something to say before you post again (as opposed to posting other people's opinions)?
    Try using your words, like a big boy.
    Or better yet, go and do something, and then come back and tell us about it...

    I can see how it works now , I couldn't get my head around the / a medium of exchange

    It , the no currency is/has been tried before and is/has been successful in a village that starts with t in Devon England

    I have just been on a bit of a trip around Japan by bicycle and I can say , clearly and very strongly
    If you follow the current consumerist path without strong regulation , you WILL make NZ a unattractive place to live
    The beaches here are a disgrace , its plastic and detritus from fishing

    The roads are choked with trucks. Imagine a one horse town like , Ranfurly then drive 18 wheelers though the main street pretty much 24/7 ,,I'm NOT joking ,,,,that is what will happen if you do not regulate, it maybe cheap but it destroys the lives of those near the road ,,,,,and those away from the road for that matter

    As for money , I completely agree it divorces one from another being , where as gifting humbles one to another ,
    A traveller will understand

    So we do need to reduce/ remove this consumerist society , take a step back and just start giving , imagine if u took a crate of homebrew beer over to those unruly mongrols over the fence.

    You don't have to join in , but the relationship would change


    As I've said many times before, if NZ works pon any type of fractional banking system and that fraction is above the rate of growth, you will get imbalances,
    Also, due to international financial regulations changing , 1982 ish last one, there is a lot of international money looking for work to do

    This imbalance ,among others , again ruins the lives of local people
    Ask anyone from the pretty coastal towns around the south of England if they can afford to live there ??

    As strange as it sounds , I think we do need to return to villages of around 150 people with a sense of community and the freedom to trust and help the neighbour,
    It may involve some form of money, but the emphasis shouldn't be on that, rather the opposite,,,,,this would need a big shift in public thinking

    I think it IS happpening , slowly , but IS happening

    more public pressure and social awareness would help..IMHO

    Yes it is. The people who print the money own the money as was witnessed by them removing the savings of those in Cyprus.

    Aha, financial management kills just about every sphere of human endeavor. I don't expect you to grasp that concept as it seem to be relatively new around these parts. However it seems that others have noticed it too.

    I understand it fine, you understand it within its limits. So I'm not concerned at how valid you deem your understanding to be.

    No, that'd be losers that expect everyone else to pay for their lunch.

    That'd be because they're owed it, if you don't like it then don't borrow money.

    Nope. Nobody ever has and nobody ever will.

    The fuck they are. And I've generally found that those with a bit of knowledge tend to know a bit more.

    Obviously not in your world.
