Message: [QUOTE="orange79, post: 1756971, member: 159"] Do you understand that barter is an exchange of things of value? Good. Cash is an analog - something that is exchanged in lieu of exchanging some good or service, having been assigned a value based on communal trust. Just because someone isn't paid cash doesn't mean they are not being paid. If you worked a job, and someone provided you a house and food instead of giving you paper money, would you say you were not getting paid? [/QUOTE]
