Its up to you to reconcile these statements -

Statement 1 -



Statement 2 -



Statement 3 -



But what is the fact of the matter? -

Which Countries are on the Gold Standard in 2024?
As of 2022, none of the world's countries use the gold standard. However, several countries used it in the past

Pride is a stupid and terrible thing.

You were wrong. You even admitted that you were wrong. But on account of pride, you first try grammar, then you resort to insults.
Enjoy.

I just mentioned few currencies backed by commodities, yes the gold standard is gone but currencies are still backed by commodities like gold and others. Take away the gold at fort know and see if the value of the US dollar remains the same.
Again you are really a dork.

Education / Re: UNIJOS Student Abdulsalam Idris Beaten To Death By Course Mates Over N30k Bribe by TUANKU(m): 8:22pm On Apr 05

So sad.

Now the life of the bribe giver and his co-travellers are in ruins. First they will suffer pyscologically, physically and financially. They will no longer be doctors, which feat they could not have attained with their bribes, in the first place.

Very stupid and greedy young men.

One wonders how some people get into universities and achieve their results with bribes. No wonder we have horrible political leaders today.
Don't be surprised if the culprits go back to complete their studies and end up as medical doctors...anything negative you think is not possible is not only possible here but already happened in Nigeria.

Sorry Einstein i have no idea about commodity correlated currencies. That the gold standard is gone does not mean commodities like gold and iron are not used to back currencies.
It happens in Australia, Norway, Colombia, Canada...you can go check it out Einstein cheesy

Nope. That was in the past. The gold standard is history and has been for over fifty years.
Commodity correlated currencies. There are plenty of examples of countries where their wealth and currencies are able to be tracked and correlated to a specific commodity or multiple commodities.
The value of the Australian dollar despite not being backed by their commodity asset (Iron) officially, it still has a significant effect on their currency. Many countries have a currency that is closely linked to oil with currency and economic fluctuations coinciding with oil price changes and availability. These include large economies such as Canada, Russia, Columbia and Norway. These are all large exporters of oil, a commodity with a high value in today’s world that relies upon it as a resource.
There are no currencies that are backed directly by gold. However, this doesn’t mean that gold or other commodities are irrelevant to their economy or currency. The Zimbabwe ZiG is backed by both gold and foreign currencies.

Islam for Muslims / Re: Can Someone From The North Explain The Conflicts With Shiites? by TUANKU(m): 6:30pm On Apr 05
It's an age old conflict which resulted from the dispute of whom to take over leadership after the death of Prophet Mohammad PBUH. The prophet had settled for Ali (the youngest among them) while alive but the elders change am for Ali when the prophet passed on and since then the dispute started.
Shia Muslims insisted on Ali but where outnumbered by the Sunnis.
Just so you know...Al-Qaeda,ISIS,Boko Haram,Al-Shabab, Bandits in Nigeria etc are all Sunni groups and have engaged in the killing of Shia Muslims.
All these Sunni Ekuke getting mad go ask your parents to tell you the truth or better still do a unbiased research. You lot just recite Arabic without knowing shit about what you recite. Dan Banza!

If they want to go by gold
Then civil war would soon start

The power that be
Many currencies are backed by gold...and it did not lead to civil war.
NL Einsteins...The gold standard was dropped, there are no currencies that are backed OFFICIALLY by gold anymore since Switzerland in year 2000. However, this doesn’t mean that gold or other commodities are irrelevant to their economy or currency. There are plenty of examples of countries where their wealth and currencies are able to be tracked and correlated to a specific commodity or multiple commodities. For example, The Australian Dollar is sensitive to changes in iron prices as they are the largest exporter of iron worldwide. Many countries have a currency that is closely linked to oil with currency and economic fluctuations coinciding with oil price changes and availability. These include large economies such as Canada, Russia, Columbia and Norway.
There is correlation between commodity and currency...they have an effect on a currency that can be seen and tracked even when they are not directly backed by these commodities.
The Zimbabwe ZiG is backed by both gold and foreign currencies.

I'm not mad but the timing says it was not because of spraying money but they wanted to get him. This actually started few days ago when he won best dressed 'female' and people started protesting the award and called for his arrest.

It means the authorities were pushed to arrest him with whatever guise possible. Is this how your justice system should work? What has happened to Beta Edu who stoled billions meant for the poorest of the poor after many months?
Did he commit an offense or not? Forget the timing. cheesy

DMerciful:
Don't deflect, the fact that Bobrisky is a crossdresser shouldn't make him be a target of selective justice. This is esp as people were calling on the police to arrest him for crossderssing but they declined that crossderssing is not a crime, only to yield to the requesters by looking for something else to arrest him.

Its an unfair application of the law
How is it selective justice? Is he the first to be prosecuted for same offense? Why are you mad really? cheesy
