10. You people just don't get it!

You get to trade your work for "almost free". The Gold Standard would be free, but hey, we gotta be pragmatic here.

Corporations get to trade their pollution for free fines.

Banksters and other assorted Wall Street fraudsters get, "get out of jail free" cards, just like now.

Big Pharma will be free to charge whatever they want forever, and we'll be free not to buy their overpriced stuff. Besides, it's like Chris Rock said, Robitussin cures everything. Got a cold? Take some Robitussin. Sore back? take some Robitussin. Break your leg? Put some Robitussin on it.

We'll finally be free of having to buy anything! And they can get rid of us pesky Proles for free!
