David Ruffner<p>This may not be a practical idea, but it would be cool if individuals had their own currency. Each person would be their own central banker. You would never run out of money because you could always make more. Maybe exchange rates between individual currencies would keep people mostly honest. No one would want your IOUs if you kept on printing out more. Working hard would be equivalent to devaluing your currency relative to your employer's currency. This could help you get the job, but at a cost to your internal well-being.</p><p><a href="https://raphus.social/tags/economics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>economics</span></a><br><a href="https://raphus.social/tags/money" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>money</span></a><br><a href="https://raphus.social/tags/showerThought" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>showerThought</span></a></p>
