Why wouldn't a regulated bartering system work? I mean everyone needs something, and for the most part everyone has something they are good at, sometimes more than one.

But you forget that the average person has no use for gold if they don't even have a job or lost a house... so what you say may be wise for an investor with money he stands to lose, but of little use to the 'common' man with a family to feed

MONEY is not the root of all evil. Despite what your brainwashing has told you.
MONEY is not the problem.
If it weren't for some form of currency, it's absolutely probable that the computer you're sitting at reading this would not exist.
DESPERATION and it's sister POVERTY are the root of all evil.
Why do we have DESPERATION, brought on by POVERTY? That's because we have a FRAUDULENT money system. It's essentially the worlds biggest ponzi scheme in all of history.
Money, without compounding interest, issued by the state government, and backed by any precious metal is the solution. It always has been and always will be.
The only dilemma, was that with a currency that was backed by something(anything), there was a limit to how much currency could be created. This is a huge "no-no" for international bankers, because without the ability to instantly create ANY amount of money. They would not be able to enslave entire countries at their whim, which is highly documented through IMF loans - particularly to third world countries.
But, the first world countries are not any luckier. We too are slaves, some have come to see the chains that bind them, some continue to blissfully ignore them. But the fact remains, we are all slaves.
ERASE THE BRAINWASHING THAT HAS TOLD YOU MONEY IS EVIL, IT IS NOT TRUE. INSTEAD AKNOWLEDGE THE REAL ISSUES OF THE MONETARY POLICY (PRACTICALLY WORLD WIDE).
Imagine the good that one could do, if 50% of his income wasn't squandered to tens' of different taxes. All so that an imaginary compounding interest debt payment can be made.
The monetary system is the ultimate conspiracy, that has enslaved the world. And no one wants to admit it.

This is the way the NWO controls gold prices.
they buy when gold prices are low. and hold these sales when prices are high to steal money from the idiots that buy gold when its high.
Wait about 3 months after the IMF holds there sales and see what the gold prices are then.
They should be down to the $500 to 600 range that is when you buy for the next round of gold price rise. then sell when gold goes above $1000 again in about 5 to 8 years.

From the Bank of England forward all the governments of Europe had central banks for a very good reason. The kings and princes of Europe had learned from hard experience that they could raise the taxes of their subjects only so high and then they had a revolt on their hands and they tended to lose their jobs (and heads). It appears that that natural level was about 40-43%; people will tolerate taxes up to about 40-43% and then they start digging in their heels and they just won't allow it to go any further. But with the central bank mechanism in place the lid was off. Now these governments could tax their people 50%, 60%, 70% and in some cases 80% of everything they produced and they did not have a revolt on their hands. They did not have resentment because the people didn't know that they were paying a tax. They knew that prices were going up, but they didn't understand why, they didn't know who was getting their lost purchasing power. www.bigeye.com...
The canaries in the coal mines are singing in more markets than you can count. Just to name a few, the Baltic Dry Index of shippers is off 40% since June. The S&P 500 is trading at 5 times its highest valuation in history. Gold has broken out higher in every currency in the world (the beginnings of a CRACK UP BOOM as paper reverts to intrinsic value) and is attempting to do so in dollars - to the consternation of Barrick gold ($3 to 5 billion of losses on hedges) and all the big banks who are short the metal for POLITICAL purposes.
Gold now has an ACTIVE head and shoulders bottom pattern in place which TARGETS $1,350. A flight to REAL money has begun. The Chinese government is ACTIVELY pushing their citizens to buy gold and silver and they have the ability to STAND up to the manipulators and protect their people. THEY WILL DO SO and defend the value of their peoples’ gold and silver. Call it a BEIJING Put. The manipulators have never had to deal with someone holding over 2 TRILLION dollars on the bid and would be more than happy to TAKE DELIVERY.
