Have you ever noticed that over time "we" have ever and ever more precision and accurate standards by which to measure things? Whether time, or distance, mass, etc.

Though curiously enough, not money? There is no longer any definition of the unit of account, and it even fluctuates. How would you feel if they redefined the acre? Your 40 acres are now only 35 acres? Wouldn't you feel justifiably outraged? Or the standard of measurement like the meter, or yard. We don't turn on the news and hear things like "The meter lost several millimeters in heavy trading against the yard yesterday."
