Nothing for $2.00, PART ii...

Yesterday I posted about trying to get people to give away money.  Nothing for $2.00m I said.  So today I put philosophy in action.  I walked around and handed people $2.00.

When they asked what it was for, I told them "Nothing.  I just bought nothing from you for $2.00."  Most of them argued with me.  I told them if it bothered them, they should give it to someone else, or give one of the dollars to someone else.  

Every time $2.00 ended up on my desk later in the day.  Now, what's up with that?

I read somewhere tonight that the world's 100 top billionaires had enough money in interest and earnings alone to end poverty several times over. What I wonder is, would anyone let them?  We seem willing to take from the government, but not from our fellow man.  That's just messed up.

So tomorrow, I am going to pick someone NOT at work at random and pay them $2.00 for nothing.  Let's see what happens then. 

In the meantime, if anyone is reading this, give it a try and let me know your experiences.
