You may have heard that the VMICC ad hoccam effort to get Vashon signed up to Fourth Corner Exchange has been put on hold, make that terminated. But wait, full disclosure is that the target has been modified. We want FCX with one little change: the Life Dollar shall have a value of 100 Kwh. That's right, the value of one funnybuck to a resident of Vashon is one hundred kilowatt hours of energy. How's that for a lump of gold?  And how does that fit? Look at this excerpt:

Kucinich, Zarlenga Say Monetary Reform Needed Now

By John Tiffany

According to Rep. Dennis J. Kucinich (D-Ohio) U.S. monetary reform is urgently needed: “It is long past time we look at the implications of . . . the privatization of money created by the 1913 Federal Reserve Act, the bank fractional reserve system and our debt-based economic system. Unless we have dramatic reform of monetary policy, the entire economic system will continue to accelerate wealth upwards. I am currently working on drafting legislation for an ‘American Monetary Act’ to address these and other issues in order to protect the economic well being of America. (End of excerpt.)

And that man was not allowed to run for president. Talk about being on target! Dennis has struck at the beating chicken heart of US decay. With our dual currency  system in place we will be ready for the day when Dennis scores.

And now, the point of this posting. The response so far to the idea of basing currency on energy ranges from disbelief to negative. You poor souls do not seem to realize that the US dollar you love so dearly is based on debt. You like that better? Re-read that clip from Dennis. Then ask yourself what in this heaven-forsaken world is currency supposed to represent if it is not universal value. Or, have you not understood what all this fuss about oil means?

Sorry, I'm just having a bad bald spot day.
