pieces of paper w/ pictures of past presidents on the

this is what cash money is...
dawned on me just other day...
odd, when you look at it (longishly) at this angle...
look at it after a good healthy travel..
say you go to New Zealand..
they use cards for just about everything over there -
that sounds more advanced to me -
than carrying round pieces of paper with pictures of presidents on them -
and coins - with engraved guys on 'em -
and look at this guy -
jingling a paper coffee cup -
he wants more of these coins -
and people are reluctant (or, more oft the case, just plain not going) to give him any of their pieces of papers or coins -
me too at this point -
i have to hold onto my green pieces of paper -
so I can buy a burrito at the mexican place -
to.. stay alive.. - is life hinged on these pieces of paper with past presidents on them??????? is there something majorly shot-through in this???????

and I have to pay landlord invisible pieces of paper (this is a very faithy thing) via a 'check' so that they (whoever 'they' is) won't come and play out the picture that appears in head when I think of failing to sufficiently pay rent: a set of burly Russian guys dragging me down stairs - big kick to behind - rolling to lying by curb...
what a system that's so seemingly aLOCK in place these days!!! Eh???

and this lady - in deli asking for a "Lucky Seven" ticket - trying to win many pieces of paper - just by scratching stuff off with a coin. . . and what's this I hear about this 'lotto' business funding public schools - like textbooks and programs - - - can this be any good? Is this in some way fueling to keep things flowing along as they are. . .

Let's switch to cards - and put credit on them - on everyone's - credit enough so that no one ever has to subject themselves to having to look like a dope, jingling a paper coffee cup in the metro car. . . a system where people can at least afford to eat and drink in this brief vapor of a life we get. . .
