2:03 LOL. Columbus didn't barter. He just pointed a gun, demanded gold, shot anyway, then tied bells around the natives' necks and said he'd do the same unless the bell gets filled with gold dust.
The problem with cash is that, for it to work, you pretty much have to have a reliable government whom everybody trusts to issue and back the currency. These days, I wouldn't call fiat currencies "smarter". Fun video though!
My 10th grade World History students loved this song and sing it all the time! We were studying the revival of trade in Europe during the years of 1000-1300.
we still barter...all bartering is is buying and selling what your trading is the currency and what your receiving is the good. Wait nvm that would make it too easy for the kids
Barter is great for business. Businesses need to fully understand the secrets of barter. This will give them a competitive advantage and help them increase their sales, cash flow and profit. There are some dangers with barter. Find out more in the book Barter is Back.
I love the running gag with the Wheels.

i like how the main character pretty much has the same hat throughout the song and time periods and how the wheel has been a common theme as well.

At the end it should show a company giving millions to a politician's campaign funds, and they get enormous tax breaks and "bailout money" in return.
