This argument comes again and again in this discussion, and I still dont get it. Why would you value something because it can be taken away? By that logic, increasing taxes makes the currency more valuable. Lets go to 99.9% taxes on dollars and see our money shoot to the sky!

Why do you value water? It's just something that can be taken away.

I dont value it because it can be taken away. I value it because i need it to survive.

You don't value USD because it can be taken away, you value it because you need it to stay out of jail.
