hmmmmm......
I'm not sure where I've insulted you. I also don't believe I've strayed off topic, only asking you to clarify
your comments (which, BTW, you haven't done)

But im pretty confident in saying that I am older than you, earn more cash than you, more qualified than you, better looking then you and as a result have more sex with sexier ladies than you.

Ah, once again, true colors showing through. Much like your "beating" comment prior.
Older than me? Not that it matters (and I doubt it given your previous adolescent remarks), but I'm sure your not. FWIW, I voted in 1988 election. I'll do the math for you, that makes me at
least 36.
Earn more cash? Once again, it matters not. Once again FWIW, I own my own home (which you'll get to do someday when you get big, hopefully) which sits on 1 acre of land in the Berkshire Mts. I own a '04 Explorer & a '03 Durango. I make enough to support a wife (who does not have to work) and 2 kids. Do you think I qualify to be in your
club?
More qualified? Not sure what you mean here. Lets see, we're on CC so you must mean Conquer Club!
hmmmm...

Better looking and more sex with sexier ladies?
Let's see.......This could certainly be up for debate; however, I will submit that it is but another example of your adolescent "mind" at work.
*sigh*, the ignorance of youth.....

Use your obvious pragmatism and thirst for knowledge, and uncover the reasons why this is how it is.
Not sure what you're getting at here (its been a while since I thought like a 15 year old) but I'll humor you.
The dollar used to be backed by gold, i.e. the gold standard. Now we (like most countries) use "fiat money", money not backed by any physical asset. Rather, our currency is backed by future claims to wealth of American taxpayers and other income sources of the Treasury.
So can you
now blow all that smoke away and enlighten us Professor?
