In reply to this blog entry: THE ESTABLISHED RELIGION OF CREDIT

http://www.independentamerican.org/2008/08/02/the-established-religion-of-credit/

I reply: “Credit as money is tied to precious metals as money. The
problem is of a fundamental nature.

The precious metals do not circulate and are held in vaults and other
various and sundry “hidy holes.” Thereafter credit becomes money and
circulates in stead of the so-called backing.

The answer to this conundrum is to totally redefine what money is.

I have redefined money as a communication, and provided a variety of
methods of creating these monetary communications where proper
recognition of the seigniorage is accounted.

Check the website gold is money dot info – general category for
writings of “JCarvingblock”

While I recognize that precious metal coinage can be used in monetary
affairs, my point is that limiting your monetary communications to a
single vector is unnecessarily limiting.

Money is a method, or associated sets of methods that allow humans to
exchange real things by proxy.
