gold/silver are also an option

@Orchid then anyone can crash your economy with bringing in a lot of gold...only goods and services with immediate and concrete calue would work

nothing one person can hoard

and satellites cant get shot down either..or once btc crashes they determine the satellite is best used for other services

what i'm getting at - these discussions have to happen. all of these things should be planned out BEFORE mass movement

I'm 100% onboard with creating a community, but right now we are nowhere near

ok use potatoes or local caloric food as currency

i'd be willing to do projects for neighbors

the socratic method is essential for projects like this

I already do stuff like that for a few families at my home

barter should be encouraged of course

@dt im playing along arent i

@thatdudeiscool yes buddy

regardless of getting something

@dt these discussions are had by a lot of people already, it makes more sense to worry about it after settling into a house with people from the community

@Roman Dreams no cucks please...no moral high roads either

truth is we will need SOME manufactured goods. case in point - guns. no matter how self sufficient, it will be for the greater good to take a small percent from "the outside"

>hey Dave can you pick my tomatos while i'm at work today
>sure thing

>cuck

if your services are free wouldnt that make mine free if i were to have to compete with you

either way - there are two things needed on a personal level before moving.
1. cash
2. wife

what are yall doing to achieve both

can i add

3. not worrying about others wives and money

I can tell you one thing you shouldn't be doing @dt - larping

bro...i'm just bored on saturday trying to have some conversation

@dt ok so on an a semi related note...youre a smart dude...are all whites ...will it be easier to tell your future neighbors how to use bitcoin or that if they farm and create a lot of food their needs will be met in other areas by the people in town

if someone really creates a surplus of a necessary resource for all the town and maybe even export wouldnt you want to help them out anyway you could....it seems alot easier and still allows for specialization and barter without too many extra steps

oh yeah i agree....for inter-community trades barter is best. BUT sometimes a perfect trade doesn't exist. let's say I do electrical work that costs $100. you sell potatoes for $1. What am I gonna do, take 100 potatoes for services? Goofy example but you get the point. This is when currency is useful.

no i get it perfectly...but what if you looked at it as this man farms potatoes he provides for my family to get through the winter..if he needs something fixed that takes a couple hours or days ...sounds like a fair trade...anything that is a bigger project should be socialized such as a barn or town hall etc.

>falling for the jewish superior IQ meme

@Ammianus Marcellinus we all know jews are only better at verbal IQ...not really the important one

Just an answer to peb ball's comment

@thatdudeiscool right - and a contract would solve that

for example a doctor could set up contracts with everyone in town. "I will be your on-call doctor if you provide me with xyz..."

i dont believe whites at this point in time live in a time of scarcity..i dont think people will have to work 40 hours a week...a dcotor should have his needs met and if he provides exemplary service you can give the hookup for him with something cool in return....one of the reasons doctors are seen as so stressed is because they waste so much time caring for people that will never speak walk or work again...not to go into a moral debate but if people chose to go with dignity when it is their time a doctor would have a much easier time and schedule

and basically want to help people since he can see the benefits of his labor not just watching massive resources be wasted until you just have to meet with the grieving family...current doctors have a pretty thankless job ...my sister is an md and theres a reason md suicide rates are very high...

or helping people who don't deserve treatment

@dt yeah i mean we are all in this situation thats why we are here...most jobs do not bring joy and fulfillment as they should ...if we didnt have to provide for so many social programs and have affordable housing life would be much better
