I picked Bolshevik because 1) the term was abandoned shortly after the Russian Revolution and so today it has ideological connotations but is not associated with Communism's totalitarianism (Stalinist Samoleans would have been unfair) and 2) it is aliterative with bucks. Sometimes a joke, even a bad one, is just that.<BR/><BR/>As far as people being supported for their good intentions, that is one of the things that defines our political differences. The road to perdition and all that. Some believe it. Some don't.<BR/><BR/>My guess is that Keith is right. In fact, I saw some reference to Milwaukee Hours although I could find no evidence of an active program.Rick Esenberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07280070509167910367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20692053.post-7625481932215643432008-12-10T11:56:00.000-06:002008-12-10T11:56:00.000-06:00This might not be the first time in Brew City.If I...This might not be the first time in Brew City.<BR/><BR/>If I recall my history correctly, the Hoan administration during the Depression in Milwaukee either toyed with idea or actually issued script to pay city of Milwaukee employees.krshorewoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00417863312104824551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20692053.post-32620384537648203992008-12-09T19:56:00.000-06:002008-12-09T19:56:00.000-06:00Draw your own?

It might be a futile effort, but the goal is commendable.<BR/><BR/>If employees agree to be paid in local currency it seems like there would be positive effects for the local economy.<BR/><BR/>Whatever the cause or effect condescendingly attaching a communist label to the currency is lame. Neighbors banding together to creatively use capitalistic systems in an attempt to soften the devastating economic blow many of us are feeling is something to be commended, not derided.3rd Wayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05241089655906051240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20692053.post-25603324686373376122008-12-09T12:41:00.000-06:002008-12-09T12:41:00.000-06:00Maybe one of my favorite posts on this blog.I don'...Maybe one of my favorite posts on this blog.<BR/><BR/>I don't think there would be a "sale" in your theoretical examples of Boshevik Bucks. I think most businesses would simply change their prices to reflect the exchange rate. So, a 4 USD sandwich becomes a 5 Bolshie sandwich.<BR/><BR/>I can't imagine that, if there were not a 1 for 1 exchange between a USD and a Bolshie, that a company would simply offer that 20% discount by offering a 4 USD sandwich at 4 Bolshies.<BR/><BR/>The price mechanism will fluctuate to reflect the value of the product, no matter the currencyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20692053.post-74918026991534302382008-12-09T08:45:00.000-06:002008-12-09T08:45:00.000-06:00Here's one of the very few times I agree with the ...Here's one of the very few times I agree with the Shark.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20692053.post-64467692409232720052008-12-08T16:29:00.000-06:002008-12-08T16:29:00.000-06:00Of course, the US Government does not look kindly ...Of course, the US Government does not look kindly on people who try to elbow in on it's monopoly. Look at what happened with the Liberty Dollar. They got raided, and their only crime was creating a currency which was actually backed by gold and silver... something we used to believe in.<BR/><BR/>Of course, private companies have done this in other countries, with some success. The most notable I can think of is "Canadian Tire money", which not only can be used at those stores, but now other stores accept it as currency and it can be exchanged for Canadian dollars as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
