Title: Cold War Era Alternative Currency Dossier: "Societal Cataclysm"
Post by: row5_seat47 on June 11, 2014, 01:50:25 AM
“Would the government or governments which appear after an attack actually find it necessary or desirable to fractionate the country into different monetary units because different degrees of devastation or reliance on paper money required this? What if Federal Reserve Notes were thus generally valued and accepted in Oregon (which, perhaps, did not get hit very hard by the Soviet attack) but were found of dubious value in North Carolina, amid a consequently enormous inflation of prices in dollars paid per can of beans?”

I have only skimmed it myself and as a theoretical concept it seems sound , I agree that in the for exchange of goods and services I am sure the currency will immediatly play a major role though.
