Those currencies sucked. Pointing out other terrible currencies once existed in dead civilizations doesn’t quite help with the argument that currently doesn’t need to be easy to use.
- rektide 6y agoI think it's ok to consider that different currencies can fill different roles & have different advantages than one another. Not all currencies need to compete on the same terms.
- prepend 6y agoIt’s also ok to consider positive and negative characteristics of currencies and to assess, including all the different roles and advantages, whether they sucked within their original context and whether they would suck being used in other contexts, including present day.
