I feel I may have understood "If the money is broken everything else becomes money." incorrectly. Like...it doesn't sound bad, but I know it is. Inflation is that: the goods themselves retaining & increasing in "monetary" value, because the money itself has none.
I'd imagine it to almost sound like a "seller's market" because then the item is the one that is precious. But as I seem to ponder I feel that maybe I am answering my own question. Why would If the money is broken everything else becomes money" be bad? And then I realize: because the seller would be paid for such "precious item" in money...in debasing, devaluating money... turning it into an endless pit of necessity and scarcity....you'd always be forced to having something to sell. Which is why so many of us in the working poor class die as a consequence of having sold our bodies and souls, for lack of anything else.
I have faith ... #Bitcoin fixes this.
