- kaonashi 13y agoNo, real resources are scarce. Money is anything but -- it is issued by fiat.
- burntsushi 13y agoThat's an obtuse remark. Money is a tangible object. That people give money value based on whatever reason is not relevant to whether it's scarce or not.
- kaonashi 13y ago> Money is a tangible object Money is an entry in a ledger. It can or cannot have a tangible manifestation (coins, bills), but it is not always the case (reserves are purely electronic).
