        Money was invented to make bartering easier. Money-economy and barter-economy are the same, except barter-economy taxation is difficult

        Why ain't India printing enough new 100 denomination bills? That might help.

        Dude it will take 4 years to print that amount of money, by value, in Rs 100 notes. @WSJ

        Then let's hope Indian Gov has infrastructure up and running. Hoping to go digital, they won't need that much cash though.
