The next insight is that the fish, even dried or salted, is a poor store of value. Thus they invent the concept of money, which allows stored wealth to survive without corruption... well, the wealth itself does not rot.
It's subversive today, too--the same Monarchists have been in charge for the last 80 or more years.
And, per FDR, fish would make a fine store of value--Evil Capitalists have no...business...holding onto their wealth for any length of time; it must be spent. Forthwith.
The comments over there at zero hedge are always a such an entertainment, if your idea of entertainment is watching crazy people argue with each other.
