Local currrency is stable medium of exchange
"Economic Recession, Energy Crisis, Global Warming… so what are we going to do about it? Jct: You're on the do-it-yourself right track: "Resilient Neighborhoods & Communities, Local/Alternative Currency, and more..."
Jct: You don't need anything more to organize a community than a stable honest no-interest medium of exchange and time-based IOUs are the best money humans can ever create. When all local currencies are pegged to the Time Standard of Money (how many dollars/hour child labor) Hours earned locally can be intertraded with other timebanks globally! In 1999, I paid for 39/40 nights in Europe with an IOU for a night back in Canada worth 5 Hours. U.N. Millennium Declaration UNILETS Resolution C6 to governments is for a time-based currency to restructure the global financial architecture.
