I find it wrily funny when people try to convince others to use #CashOnly . I do understand the sentiment, but in the end the cash we all use is a #FiatCurrency . Its value is nominal only and that is one reason why we have to put up with things like #Inflation . But I never seen a compelling argument for a return to #BarterEconomy . Like it or not, we're part of a global economy, and friendly trade agreements are in everyone's best interest *glares at the #USA *
PS that's not to say that a small local #BarterEconomy can't have a useful place alongside our #cash and #card ones. It sure can. Perhaps we should look at how we can leverage the benefits of each, and in what circumstances what mechanism is most beneficial to us.
