RE: Ned on SBD: "Does the community want to continue to be paid out in Steem Dollars?"

The other things you mention are not part of the SBD itself. They're auxiliary support components. The US Dollars we use today depend upon a vast array of supporting systems, people, and devices like the Federal Reserve, Treasury, Secret Service, bonds, banknote printers, etc. Auxillary support components like those are essential to the function of the Dollar but they are not part of dollars themselves.
