Since about 2006, FDIC has stopped imposing any reserve requirement on its member banks. So the "money multiplier" is now infinite. Act accordingly.

My uncle was a car dealer in the 1930s-1950s. As a child I asked him "What is a used car worth?" and he told me: "Whatever you can get for it." I've remembered that for over 70 years and it applies to everything including bitcoin. If someone is willing to give you $x for a bitcoin then that is what it is worth - and the $ is as worthless as the bitcoin. Until Nixon took us off silver, a dollar had been worth something useful. Now it's whatever you can get.

bitcoin isnt worth anymore than the us dollar at this point. nothing.

Yeah good point. Hosting transactions of bitcoin to earn bitcoin doesn't really deserve the term 'mining.'

Yes. But I like to define inflation as: printing money.

The banks in the usa cant run OUT of money. The federal reserve will just print up whatever the banks need. HOWEVER< if they do that, the money they print may not be worth much after inflation gets through with it.

Gold. I have been in the real gold mining business since the early 80's. It pisses me off that the crypto business has hijacked the real terms of "mining" and "minting" to try and make it seem legitimate. Just try hiding your cryptos under the mattress or in the backyard.

Constitution??
that won't stop dems or RINOs

Even given such corrupt and immoral rules, it's still against the Constitution to have a Foreign Central Bank issuing our currency at interest.

Right!

I will gladly offer the bank paper slips, in lieu of money, for a price.

Isn't that what the federal reserve does, anyway?

The banks have already run out of money precisely because they keep printing more. They intentionally devalue and destroy the real value represented in currency.

We could only be so lucky.

Adding a zero is quite accurate. The fractional reserve system does just that. Banks are allowed to create loans for 10x what they are given.

Give Biden a shovel and a hole he'll find Beijing. And put the USA a quadrillion in debt.

Right off the bat me dino figured "print more money" is the answer to that question.
I know we will always have paper because I recall Rush Limbaugh saying during the Nineties that the USA has more trees than when the Pilgrims came over "because trees are a renewable resource."
Nevertheless, in me dino's humble opinion, common sense is not.
Why?

And you can't fix stupid.
Debt ceiling? What debt ceiling?
I remember a Vice President Biden telling someone we can pay our way out of debt.
That impressed me dino so much that I recall him sitting in a chair and facing left on my TV screen when he said that stupid Schiff with a smile on his profiled head full of rot.

when the "money" we use is just numbers on paper, just add a zero to the end of what each bank has as backup

problem solved

most people have no clue that the world is on the edge of a depression that will make the Great Depression look like a picnic....
