This is where none of you get it. Everything you've said is definitely true, however in an economic collapse its not going to be a cold turkey apocalypse. We will revert back to older mediums of exchange. And Gold and Silver (metals etc. bartering included) will be the forefront of it. I also posted a good link on WHY Gold and Silver DO have an actual intrinsic value. Read it and maybe this won't be so hard to process. It's highly unlikely we are going to have absolutely no form of currency at all. So for anyone else who continues to say this exact same thing, you're not being intelligent and you're not thinking about it properly. If you don't have something that people will statistically WANT then you are boned.
Do you think that people will just casually go "oh the dollar is broken welp i better go get all that gold and silver i hoarded"
are people going to trade their wedding rings for a bag of potatoes?
