Thats the ultimate sarcastic answer i have ever read! :D hehehe.

Basicly, we are depending on the 'poor countries', ie, lets take Iraq for example. It has oil.... Lets face it, the countries we have 'trouble with' (read, western vs "islam") have something we (the western people) really need... OIL.

Oil is the next cause for a 3rd world war. :)

And the forth will be about water.

Anyway,
You're wrong, the US can never be broke.
Before the 1950s, the reference unit for the standard exchanges was gold.
Since the 2nd World War and the Marshall Plan, this reference unit is now... the american dollar.

I encourage everybody to read this VERY funny comic

I've been looking at this money thing for a while and some of the concepts were hard to wrap my head around and explain, so thanks for this comic, I now have a way of explaining the situation!

Notice we went from the demise of Nukebox to a comic on the economy of worthless paper tokens ...

Heyyo,

T'was an interesting comic there PMB. Very long I might add, but a cool idea. Pretty much shows how the working class is slaved these days and rich folk kick back n' enjoy it until we have rallies.. too bad we don't actually kill our leaders like the fishermen did with their boss.. but then again, we'd then be going through over 40 presidents a year. :P

now i wanna kill...where's my low velocity airsoft gun hehehe. the fly on the wall...targeted...

I'm broke ... no problem I'll just print up some more of that official looking IOU's and give it all to myself. By the time they figure out that the IOU cannot be cashed in, I'll have twenty new mansions, 100 new shoes, and 300 new comic books. Muahahahahah.

Re: Did you come from Nukebox? (do u still go there?)
 

What's an IOU? ???:(

Re: Did you come from Nukebox? (do u still go there?)
 

Heyyo,

Ah the IOU. It is what it sounds like dude:

IOU = I Owe You (money, or a possession, or a deed of some sorts)

Hope that clears it up for ya. :)
