Money doesn't create scarcity; it expresses it. Although, the proportion of money to scarcity can be manipulated.

Also, since we went off the gold standard in 1970's, you can print your own money, all the money you want. You just can't pretend it's the same as the money the government prints. But if people are willing to accept your money as payment, then it's money.

It sounds like the problem is Coyote's heroes were perfect, and people are not.

"By attaching ourselves to our personal style we lost the opportunity to organize some of those kids."
So true, and not only of the counterculture.

A hero can be famous or infamous, but not anonymous.
