#1 Why don't they just issue denominations that are just multiples of a basic unit like "one wheelbarrow full of money"?

#3 This has gotten ludicrous. Blaming Obama for trying to harm a socialist economy??? Now that's funny right there.

I've read some funny things in the last few days; no one uses a wallet anymore cause you can't put enough money in one to buy anything; merchants weigh money instead of counting it. That's funny right there.

In the Carboniferous Epoch we were promised abundance for all,
By robbing selected Peter to pay for collective Paul;
But, though we had plenty of money, there was nothing our money could buy,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "If you don't work you die."
......
And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins
When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins,
As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn,
The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!
