I write in huge bold typeface because there isn't much content. It also fills a lot of space. I apologize if that bothers you, but blank space bothers me.

For a time but then my value would skyrocket when my highly skilled rare services would come into greater demand.

What would happen? The concentration of wealth would become even more imbalanced. You neglected to opine. Certainly you don't think that precious metal currency is more fair and equitable do you?
In a world of self-reliance, true gold and silver coin would be a far more critical commodity. In a world of computers and credit and pretend money, anyone can be the dominant man, even quasimodo.
