I am leery of replacing money with anything else. Money, cold cash, is anonymous. One can purchase something without a paper trail pointing at you. Credit cards, check cards...they all scream your name and just give fodder to databanks that can be used to profile you, violate your privacy, or feed the tyranny of the Patriot Act I and II. No thank you.
If you insist on replacing money with something else, that something else better include an anonymous form equivalent to cash or it just wont cut it.
So long as it's anonymous (Score:2)
