The idea is complete crap. Money can not create value. Only work creates value. It's nothing but smoke and mirrors.

Time is Money Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

Work creates things of value.
Things of value cost money.
Time spent working is time spent making money.
Time not spent working is wasted.
Time is money

Enter the AD-FREE zone

Money is a "store of value" by definition. Perception and evaluation of the "store of value" by economic agents in a free market economy does produce changes in the value which are not connected to labor. It's a free market after all.

I'm guessing DanS has made this point before...

oh and kid for most people money IS given to them for their work. The value of the work is exchanged for the value of the money.

So would you acknowledge a time value of work? If not, I have 2 years worth of manufacturing labour work to be done and in return I will do 2 years of manufacturing labour work for you 20 years from now (ironclad guarantee). fair deal?

The problem with that is that a woman isn't time * money, that's what a job is.

If you invested those 10 dollars 100 years ago on the other hand...you'd have a lot more than just 10 dollars now.

What a bitter, bitter world you guys live in.

Your troubled and poorly thought-out relationships are time * money, but not women in general.

Nah, women are jobs.

I'm not bitter, I'm a realist.

Men will watch sports with you and leave the seat up. You also have comparable ages for your sexual peak, so it works out nicely.

Women are moody, inconsistent, and overly emotional. They're a chore.

Sometimes I wonder why Kid has trouble with money, and then the clouds open up and a beam of light falls on "unfair tax" and this thread and it all becomes so clear...
