“But that’s not the case. Lots of people want it. Our government doesn’t seem to care, but many Americans disagree.”

If China had it all, Why would you want it? They have all of the panda bears too... Why would you want it? I guess it would make elegant fishing sinkers:-) There are lots of other things that have more inherit value to barter with...

That has nothing at all to do with the subject.

If you'd read my post carefully, I said that if we were to move beyond barter, we would probably return to gold. It is one thing to exchange 5 rounds of ammo for 3 fish and a couple of eggs to trading with a commodity that is accepted by many and doesn't depend on my need for bullets and yours for fish and and eggs on a given day.
