They are not a movement, another government or terrorist organisation. The goals of the organisation is profit and continued existence. And this leads us nicely to another question: What is money? What gives worth to money? What makes $ worth a $? Government makes $ a valid medium of exchange and regulates how valuable it is. As proven nicely by this video: youtube.com/watch?v=WPmQKyTOFSk | |
