If central government cut local authority budgets by, say, 10%, why does the local authority not simply create that amount in the form of 'local money' which it uses to pay its workers (90% national currency, 10% local money) and which would be accepted by local businesses and which those businesses can use to pay 10% of their business tax?

The thing is, when money is printed and sold to a government, it is supposed to be paid for, with the same currency, including payment of interest. Since the interest money isn't printed, there's no way we can pay the Federal Reserve for all the money we owe. It doesn't exist. Now, add a new currency with nothing of collateral value to back it, and you've a whole lot of nothing.

The night his watch was released to the press, John and I chatted a lot about his history with AP. For me, the first moment link the AP Royal Oak QP "clicked" was seeing a rose gold, blue dial version (ref. 26574OR) on his wrist link in 2016 or so. It seems that was the moment it clicked for him, too. He got one of the first hundred; his was numbered and link he picked it up himself from the boutique in New York like anyone else.
