Sue Lowden, T-Nevada, has introduced the highly wonderful idea of barter in paying for medical care. But, if we wish to have a barter economy, we need to think BIG, BIG, BIGBIG.
We need to come up with a full system of LowdenBucks to enable all transactions to occur without the use of the national currency.
First, we need a system of LowdenBucks.
US Buck LowdenBuck
.25 Nightcrawler
.50 Egg
$1 Hamster
$2 Prairie Dog
$5 Chicken
$10 Cat
$20 Dog
$50 Raccoon
$100 Goat
$400 Cow
$1000 Bull
Using this handy chart, we can quickly compute the cost of anything.
Of course, making change will be difficult. We will need a new kind of cash register, and will need to stock up on all kinds of LowdenBucks. Prior to adopting the LowdenBuck system, all animal shelters will need armed protection, since they will go from "money-losing liberal cause" to "the LowdenMint".
Going to buy groceries will be fun. You should go with at least 7 cats, or maybe a goat. You will need a special cart to carry the initial money, and will need to accept your change with a special cart.
We can begin the conversion from the current USBuck to the LowdenBuck economy in a simple way: Call the Lowden campaign, and offer to make a contribution of $20 in chickens.
