The best way currently, to fight the greed economy, *which technically isn't an economy" is to create a separate smaller trade cycle that doesn't rely on it.

That is exactly my point

why do you say such bad things about bitcoin?

just be a believer, it's all we ask

I am a HUGE fan of the bitcoin idea. Don't worry about that. I am just worried that we will grow into some 'mutual dependence' with fiat money. I'm not trying to make bitcoin look bad.

, shouldn't make you feel bad about a pizza bought for fair market value at the time. I've saved coins, spent coins, and lost coins.

And that's exactly the opposite of my point... I don't feel bad about that pizza, I feel good about that pizza. I've ordered a lot of domino's that made me feel a lot worse Grin

I meant that we should leave the idea that bitcoins are worth money. Bitcoins is not the thing you can buy with money, it's the money you buy something with, they are a method of giving someone a "IOU" in a safe manner without some big (and sometimes corrupt) company managing the IOUs
