Economy

It's interesting to think about how the whole economy of this country works. Most of us don't have a clue. We agree that a $20 bill is worth more than the paper it is printed on...but why? Because someone a lot smarter than us told us it was true, so we all agreed that it was. As the US has become more wealthy, we don't need God as much as we did when we had nothing. Afterall, we can irrigate corn so we can grow food without rain. But what if it all comes apart? Is that impossible?
