In America they've been trying to introduce the dollar coin for decades. Why does it always fail?

2006-12-21 15:36:35 · 6 answers · asked by Ryan 4

On capitalism, people will talk about individual producing goods with $0.5 and selling it for $1, for example, thus earning a profit of $0.5 (some sort of wealth creation, or is it really?) and we all start assuming everyone is a winner.

If that's the general understanding, then let me give an example. Suppose India suddenly becomes so effective and efficient that it becomes a net producer, that 1 billion of the population each spend $0.5 and produce $1 worth of goods. Suppose the Indians spent $0.5 billion ($0.5 x 1 billion Indians) on Country A's human labor to produce the goods. Suppose the people of Country A, feeling grateful for the employment, spend all of their $0.5 billion worth of salary/wages on the Indians' finished goods of $1 billion. Now that the people of Country A only has $0.5 billion, so where should the other $0.5 billion comes from to buy the other half of the Indians' finished goods? Assume there's no other buyer from other countries other than the people of Country A, then the Indian economy will have 0% (zero) growth. Now we all know that the more money is introduce into the market, the higher will be the inflation rate. Since the global economy recorded net growth every year, where in the world does the extra surplus of $0.5 billion, in this case, comes from?

Note:
1. Assuming this extra $0.5 billion is net wealth after taking into consideration the inflation.
2. We all know in reality no country can be as effective and efficient as India in this simplified story-telling example, so the equation will be far more complex.
3. This country of India and Country A can be substituted with individuals, small companies, big corporates, government, etc.

These days we are strangely celebrating our week dollar because it will make our exports less expensive to foreign markets. But what do we have to sell? Beyond the obvious market goods (weapons (America is the world biggest weapons dealer), aeronautics, medicine, raw materials, and licensing agreements), what else are we selling to the world? Nobody wants our cars anymore, all the world’s nick-nacks are made overseas, we hardly produce electronics anymore, farming is becoming unaffordable, and how are we keeping afloat? We are quickly loosing or edge on technology; we are sending all our factory jobs away to cheaper labor. Seems we have a huge service sector, but that doesn't bring overseas money. We don't do textiles anymore. Are we in trouble? Have we been sold out to multi-national conglomerates? Should we prepare for the next economic down turn? How much more money can we borough? We buy from overseas non-stop, are nailing shut our own coffin?

In order to protect american imdustries from lower priced foreign competition the government frequently puts tariffs on imported goods. The effect of a tariff is to discourage people from purchasing less expensive foreign-made goods since after paying the tariff which has been added on to thier price, the foreign-made goods are no longer as great a bargain.

Job is stressing me out but pays good and has fair benifits. If I quit I would move to another state. Better enviorment for my newborn son. It would be a fresh start for all three in the family. It would put a strain on my extended family relationships.
