A small amendment
I had written in my debate with Matthew Beller that Linden Lab can’t reduce the Linden Dollar supply. It seems that this is incorrect. It has been claimed in a Reuters story that Linden Lab plans to accept tier payments in Linden Dollars if there were a crisis of value. It remains to be seen if Linden Lab will actually have the balls to do such a move when crunch time comes, however. One can only hope we never see that day.
