Have you ever wondered what a "Dollar" is? Well its nothing more than a term of measurment. Not different at all from a pint, quart or gallon. So, the next time someone tells you the amount you owe for a purchase is "Ten Dollars," just say ... "Ten dollars of what?"

However i must say, your comment was not only stereotypical, but simply racist. Your a true stoner my friend... I feel you may just have lost a lot of respect through that comment, it was slightly unnecessary. Also, more importantly to my previous arguments with your used-to-be good self, you have shown your true colours and enlightened us as to your true conservative roots.

No misinterpretation at all. None. I meant it in relation to you also.

Excellent question OG ... and THAT was the point of the thread. Sorry to say, that others far less astute than you have missed the point. Most likely because they are completely deviod of a knowledge of our monetary history.what would 10 dollars of money look like?
