Re: Parsing Slipping Points
Are you kidding? Nationally can be applied globally?
​
He said relative to globally. As in: "rather than" globally
​
He isn't saying that when he wrote "nationally" that he meant "globally".

I'm not advocating a return to the gold standard as it is not going to happen nationally. However the possibility of a global monetary system....
​
He seems to be saying the return to the gold standard won't happen nationally as opposed to globally, as in, one nation isn't going to do it.
​
You know, you couldn't define straight. Now you can't define nation either. Quit while you're behind buz. It'll stop making you look ignorant.
​
You're just making yourself look like an ass.
​
You're trying too hard to find a way for him to be wrong instead of trying to understand what he is actually saying.

Re: Parsing Slipping Points
He chose to make his point in as murky a manner possible.
​
You don't know his intentions. He later clarified what he was saying so I think it was accidental poor word choice.
​
I don't think he understands the entire point of my first post. I'm not sure you do.
​
Sure I do.
​
You misread his use of "nationally" to mean "as opposed to an individual state" when he meant "as opposed to globally".
​
All this now...

You can have the last word. I won't respond off topic in this thread again.
