And started just giving it out in a large magnitude. Like you had an affordable process that converted it and you just handed a big hunk to anyone and everyone you say. What do you think that would do economically, socially, etc. --- http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0ajm6lGqf1qekkfi.gif ... Copied to Clipboard!

If we could turn lead to gold, then at least the parents of American children who get gunned down at school would have a little something to help pay funeral costs --- https://i.imgur.com/ZwO4qO2.gifv "you just schlorp it down and use it one handed" - captpackrat ... Copied to Clipboard!

Zareth posted... The price of gold would go way down and the price of lead would increase slightlybasically similar to asteroid mining. a metallic asteroid can be worth tens of trillions of dollars... except that obtaining that much of the resource wouldn't just cash in for that much money, it would crash the market for that material. (I suppose unless demand for that resource just cannot be satisfied? like platinum or something?) --- The truth basks in scrutiny. http://i.imgur.com/GMouTGs.jpg http://projecteuler.net/profile/Sahuagin.png ...

I think I misunderstood this topic. I thought you meant as a superpower in a midas touch sort of way. If it's just something that becomes available to everyone through industrial progression, then it pretty much becomes worthless. Aside from maybe certain electronics became a little cheaper. --- Hail Hydra ... Copied to Clipboard!

Well, the largest effect of turning a large amount of lead into gold would be what happens with the incredible amount of energy you'd release destroying three protons per atom converted. I suppose it would either destroy the city you're in or you'd find a way to harness it and power the world. ...not the answer you were looking for? :) --- Pronounced "Whup-pot". Say it. Use it. ...

hypnox posted... What do you think would happen if you could turn lead to gold? And started just giving it out in a large magnitude. Economically, it would devalue gold. Though philosophically, in order for that to happen I'd have to be in an alternate universe where I grew up under radically different conditions and developed a radically different personality, because the me who is me now would never, ever do that. If anything, I'd be more inclined to keep my power secret, and only convert small amounts which can then be introduced into the marketplace without obvious disruption, giving me a minor financial boost without destabilizing the global economy. I sure as fuck wouldn't be handing it out to just anyone and everyone, though. I'd also probably immediately try to figure out if whatever chemical/alchemical/magical process I'd found to transmute worked for other things, because there are far more valuable/useful elements than gold and far more accessible base materials to start from than lead. And then, me being me, if I succeeded, I'd probably just convert all of the nitrogen in the atmosphere into oxygen... then light a match. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ...
