It's very important to get money out to the workers, and get the unemployed working. This creates purchasing power. Without it, there will be absolutely no reason for businesses to invest, regardless of how great their assets are. They won't use them, and they won't create jobs.
I don't have the perfect answer, but I am quite sure we need a strong, democratically elected government to help keep balance.
The "real" $20 bill is backed by the "full faith and credit of the U.S." whereas the counterfeit bill is not. That's gives me great comfort given that 25% of our GDP is spent by our highly efficient, highly productive government.
Jeffrey Hirsch on Bloomberg interview on Friday April 8th thinks the economy is booming and the DOW is going to reach 38k ..... Boom always comes after wars .... He is right about it .... but the difference is that wars are just getting started ..... He is also right about the DOW .... but if DOW hits 38k that will be in terms of us dollar which means it will be worthless in terms of gold .... I don't know where he gets all that stuff ...... moron!
This is a real tragedy, we need to stand up to this if not what is next for us? Terrorist is their new word, I am an animal activist and if you take a picture of abused animals in a slaughter house, now the law is you are a terrost?????
Great video as always. However, as for the response on Fast Money that the Fed needs to raise rates - I like Jim Rogers' response better whenever he's asked what the Fed should do. He basically says forget raising or lowering rates, the Fed should simply be dissolved.
@MrSmackdown100 Neither is Jim Rogers but they ussually predict the markets correctly since there money depends on it. Talk is cheap but investors put there money were there mouth is.
Okay! But that's alot like saying your dad isn't a policeman he is a lawyer. And thus, he can't know more than a policman. IMO anyway. Great thing about The good ole USA, we don't have to agree.

Peter you havent seen anything , get netflix like 11 dollars a month and you can watch the movies on your computer...there is some weird Sheet going on in amaerica these days...I hear obama has been bought , and he is even harder to detect than BUSH.But i can only Imagine what is left in the WAKE after he leaves....we have to get him out next year or we ar really going to be hurting...
CO/COINS.Same thing happend to Tommy Chong , you can rent the video AKA Tommy Chong , they put him in Jail for making Bongs and selling them on the Internet. They put him in prison , and they told him that if he accepts the deal no harm would come to his family or children. you guys are missing out get Netflix and see some of the documentarys...of what the US as turned into.SEEMS like the FEDS were trying to make an example out of someone famous. The feds get 99 dollars a day for prison fees.
If they rased rates at 1/4 percent starting 2 years ago we would have been out of this and the longer they wait the more damage is going to occur.Now with the low rates millionsof people are lossing their retirments , but at the same time the HEDGE FUND MANAGERS on wall street are making 2 billion a year.
Peter i dont think if they raise interest rates that people are going to loose jobs , the economy has ran fine on 6-7-8 percent rates...What government is really worried about is that home price will drop dramatically...and this is what needs to happen to bet back to normality.So what if the Investors and Speculaters loose money , that is the element of risk in investing.
How would peter schiff like it if someone copied his name, stole his business entities names and trademarks and started operating a business like his - not only like his, but with the same name pretending to be him. Maybe someone should open up another Euro-Pacific Capital and call themselves Peter Schiff and start stealing his clients, or misleading his existing clients. How would he like that? A counterfeit EuroPac. I bet he wouldn't think that's so funny
Someone was stamping $20 1oz silver coins in 2008 with $50 face value. I'm not suprised that annoyed someone because silver was no where near that price. However labeling him a terrorist is wrong. Utah just decided to use gold and silver money so does that make Utah at terrorist state?
This is nuts. It's getting crazier by the moment and it's all about control and total disregard for adherence to the constitution and individual liberty.

These banksters are going to get theirs someday and I hope it's sooner than later so I can witness the fed downfall as others did in our past history.

Please run for senate again Schiff. If I could put together a presidency, you would be either vice president or the presidents economic advisor sitting beside gerald celente. i think you can guess who my president would be. His name starts with a Ron and ends with Paul.
ITEM WORTH FINDING: Many years ago (more than 20?) I heard or read a comment by a major Teasury official on the topic of Chinese gov't produced counterfeit US Fed notes of shuch high quality they were undetectable. The Treasury response was that if they were undecttable "they don't exist" (ie: are no problem). This was a wonderful proof that gov't sees no economic problem with inflating money supply.

Mr Schiff Come now you know by this time all the left and right want to do is over thow the good O U.S.A. this is what is going on! And they will come for the gold and siliver you are right it will be 1933 all over agin Much of what is to come is the same old thing its
history from that time all over again their filth,theves.killers.Eugenics,You And I both know
untill the people get sick of it this will never stop. Many are going to get killed for doing nothing. hideing will not work!
It's obvious what the Government is doing - they want to tag White Males as terrorists while portraying muslims as good. Obama is a filthy muslim, and he has commanded his Dept. Of Justice to round up as many whites as possible, and let off as many blacks and muslims as possible. From petty street crime, to terrorism. This is what the blacks and muslims in the administration are doing.
Thank goodness for Peter Schiff. So many people in America do not have a clue how wealth is generated. We teach our kids Socialism in the government run educatioin system.
How does the creation of Liberty Dollars differ from all those 'Commemorative' companies that produce collectible presidential coins that are worth far less than you pay for them, while the Liberty has only increased in value?
Once again, Peter Schiff's clarity of thought is truly impressive. I am now off to spread the word about Bernard von NotHouse. If he does get imprisoned for these false charges then I will make sure that people know he is a political prisoner! These are mad times! :(
Watching schittreport, the guy put up a video wanting government run airlines. If you want to die in a plane and pay $1000 to fly across the country, go with government airlines.
Mr. Schiff, this is off the subject, but I think a Peter Schiff/Donald Trump presidential ticket would be a powerhouse. What a collaboration that would be! Schiff/Trump...that's the ticket!
If I'm not mistaken, there was big controversy a few years back because a Pizza place was accepting payments in Pesos. Not being legal tender here, this would also qualify as counterfeit according to this rationale. In fact, how many times has a Canadian coin passed hands in the US?
It's funny, even the IRS won't accept cash as payment for taxes! They know it's worthless and they don't even want it!
hey peter.... we all know why the fed isn't raising interest rates. It's not because they give a fuck about the unemployed. It's because the gov are the people who get to spend the newly printed money. It's free money to them under the guise that they're helping the poor by lowering interest rates. It's all a total scam and has nothing to do with helping the american people. Absolutely nothing.
I didn't read the responses about the word dollar. My arguement is, steer far clear of the US government. Once the government gets involved, their is a good chance you may find yourself holding the moral high ground from behind bars.
I have 1oz silver coins imprinted with, and called, "barter unit", that were minted during Y2K. If the dollar sign, and the word dollar, was not imprinted on the coin, I beleive there would not have been any problem.
I thought liberals didnt want a one world currency. If we had a gold or silver based currency then everyone else would have to follow. Or have I misunderstood everything?
Peter you are missing some issues. First the legalities. A "coin" has a specific definition under law. People cannot make coins, they can however make ingots that are round in shape. Second he put a value on it, why didn't he just put the weight and purity and they would have left him alone, he basically monetized it by putting a value on it. I agree with you that he is being made example of and unfairly prosecuted; however, the law is very tricky and is not always what it seems.
@GoldSilverNetwork If people cannot make coins, then how are quarters and nickels made? Aren't these made by people?
I agree that he shouldn't have used the word 'dollar', that gave these psychopaths the supposed reason to attack him, but I disagree that only these guys can make coins. If it's got gold or silver in it and it looks like a coin, then it's a coin. I've seen coins from the Roman era that have some gold, they aren't used as money today but they are still coins.
@TreachMarkets Obviously I am talking about the general public when referring to "people" as opposed to the governing authority.
Use of the word dollar is not really the issue, it is that he put an actual dollar value on the coin, that is the issue, if he just put a weight and purity he would have had no problem as there are many such rounds in existence. No they are not coins, look up the legal definition of coin before going further.
@GoldSilverNetwork I don't filter my vocabulary based on a law book, but I'll take your word for it. I agree with the general idea, that this guy screwed up. But I don't think that he deserved to be attacked, imprisoned, and called a domestic terrorist.
@TreachMarkets This is a matter of law, legal definition is important, thus it needs to be looked at in that context, not everyday layman vocabulary. This is why many people in the liberty or sovereignty movements get themselves behind bars. They dont read the laws and make assumptions. If this man did what he did during the civil war or revolutionary war he would have been executed for treason. I am not saying it is right, but people need to understand what they are fighting for and against.
@GoldSilverNetwork That's a good point! But isn't the same true for foreign currency? There are exchange values, and the only difference I can see is that most currencies have an exchange value recognized by the US. I purchased the $100 Trillion Zimbabwe notes (no longer a currency) and exchanged US money for them. Certainly I can sell those for US dollars, gold, silver or anything else I can barter for. I'm not sure if it would be different if he produced and monetized a world coin.
@WealthGuardShow Read the laws of your country and look up the definition of "coin" that will answer your own questions. "Coin(s)" are very specific words defined in the laws and it is not what you think it is. Just because something is flat and round does no make it a coin, but if you call it a coin then you need to understand what you are saying. The government knows the law, and Bernard like many on this board do not. The laws are there, and posted for all, Bernard failed to follow.
I think we need to learn our lesson and stay away from paper IOUs. It just seems that the "stupid" among us tend to do what's easiest and only use paper, eventually forgetting they ever owned gold, therein lies half of the problem. Then, the other half of the problem emerges...fractional reserve banking. I'd rather carry around an ounce of gold than have to use 14 one hundred dollar bills to pay for something.
@B5Inquisitor - You are incorrect. The LD notes were backed by specific amounts of silver, in the form of rounds with a face value of $10. When the moveup occured, you were able to trade in, say, a $10 note worth 1oz. for a new $20 note worth 1oz.
I admit that I had a problem with the Liberty dollars. It occurred to me that the paper notes were for $10 worth of silver instead of the specific weight of silver such as 1 ounce. As the price of silver would rise that $10 note would be backed by less silver. I imagine that it was the same for gold but I never bought any of those. Do not get me wrong as I think it was a great idea. I have almost 100 of those coins now and I have no intention of giving them up.
I agree that he was convicted for something that he did not do. I am compelled to wonder at the questions that were asked during voir dire of the prospective jurors. I am sure they were looking for those with the IQ of a rock.
Peter, I don't agree with your concept that he was prosecuted because people were bartering with his coins... there is a company you have promoted (or at least mentioned) on your old shortwave broadcasts which provides a service for people to use fractions of grams of gold for payments. It's just that he didn't pay off the correct officials (in bribes or fees, which are essentially the same here) like the rest of the gold and silver minters in the USA.
“Attempts to undermine the legitimate currency of this country are simply a unique form of domestic terrorism. While these forms of anti-government activities do not involve violence, they are every bit as insidious and represent a clear and present danger to the economic stability of this country.” -- US DOJ
By DOJ's own definition, Ben Bernanke & Barack Obama are domestic terrorists.
i disagree with your comment that getting a counterfeit $20 bill is not fraud. the moment a person or a bank realizes its fake and refuses to accept it, is the moment youve been defrauded. the bill itself could be exchanged several times before its discovered, but youve been defrauded once its no longer accepted as a medium of exchange.
@Slayer8957 You missed my point. It is not fraud in the sense that whether you have a real bill or a counterfeit bill the Federal Reserve will not give you any gold or silver. In the past, the holder of a real federal reserve notes could get gold gold or silver, while the holders of counterfeit bills could not. But I am not saying it is ok to counterfeit the counterfeit bills currently circulating as U.S. currency. The government maintains its monopoly on counterfeiting.
@SchiffReport I was thinking about earning a BS in finance. Do you think this is a good degree to earn knowing the current state of affairs within the monetary system?
It doesn't have to be accepted as a medium of exchange. Since the value of the metal itself has value you could always sell it to a goldsmith or anyone else who would like to buy the commodity the coin was made of. And this value is higher than the denomination of the coin.
I think that the conviction was likely based on a crime which is codified and defined in such a way as to prohibit what happened. It is not classic counterfeiting, however. So the jury may have been correct in their decision (though they could have nullified). This law, if it exists, is still silly, however and should be repealed.
Coercive monopoly over currency is one of the central pillars of governmental power. Remove this, and government is left only with naked violence and the threat thereof. OF COURSE they are going to do everything they can to stomp out any potential competitor.
Well if the gov't didn't like what he did, but what he did wasn't illegal, then he wouldn't have been prosecuted. Give me a break, there is definitely more to this case than just an "honest person providing a product." He was probably operating a business without a license, didn't pay taxes, didn't document sales of his product over $10,000, etc
@6503mike He is not going to jail for not having a license, not for not paying his tax, and not for not documenting his sales. He is going to jail for putting the word dollar and the price $10 on the coin. If he did not put the wold dollar but called it 10 real money or 10 round he would not be in trouble.
@uwmbigb I'm actually not American, nor do Iive in America, but it doesn't matter, you can't produce a coin sell it and put dollars on it, period. It's counterfeiting, black and white. The guy should've known this if he was intelligent enough to do some research about the impact of his actions before he started flogging these coins. This guy was the only one who was sleeping
schiff is freemason! beware of freemason in media!!! no wonder american young cattles are spinning their wheel with this guy and Ron Paulll XD XD XD Amerika is finishied!!! XD
Yes, the govt. is scared of their phony paper being revealed as worthless, which we all know @ $15 Trillion in the hole it is. But it is against the law to mint your own money, which the guy in this case did.
it was that he minted his own currency against the law, no matter its intended use, and likely didn't have a permit to do so, which is also against the law. We have way too many laws as it is, which makes this country suck now. Damn the libs and demonrats to hell!
wish you could bust glen beck he was all goverment on this issue would love for you to talk to him and shut his mouth. see if he could BS away your great points. I love how you compaired to barder and trade that is what it is. Goes to show the goverment will never allow gold standard to return print print print till it all burns down
Counterfitter who makes coins with pure silver and gold that have value many times higher than any standard coin has... what a joke, just another sign the collapse is close.
one of the most important points left out here is this guy's legal representation...that's the guy's LAWYER...if he couldnt pay for a really good lawyer he's probably not that innocent of any criminal intentions
I cant stress this enough. If the federal gov had to pay 10% interest it would consume 75% of its annual revenue. Leaving the entire government with only about $500b for all spending on everything from entitlements to wars.
We can either suffer massive cuts today or catastrophic cuts in a few years.
I wonder if Harvard, Yale and Princeton will be offering Masters and PHD's in managing your own garage sale, or maybe ramping-up to owning a flea-market?
If they were smart they would perhaps offer courses in creating a black-market. With no manufacturing base and a collapsing economy based only on consuming and a currency becoming birdcage liner...these will be the only growth opportunities left.
Soon it will be an elitist position to be a "greeter" at China-Mart!!!
Somewhat irrelevant point here But did Peter Schiff or anyone notice how Gold is tiringly holding on to its price despite the turmoils all over the world. And that Gold has topped and breathed its last for now and the near future.
Theory is nice and can get you far. But The rest is timing which Unfortunately Peter Lacks.. He should expect to be flamed for the near future because the way i see it, not many of the trades he champions will do well this year
Just joined SchiffRadio! It is awesome! I used to wait impatiently for the SchiffReport YouTube videos, but now I get two hours of it every day! Kudos to you Peter for turning this into a real business!!!!
Yeah, it's hard to believe they're going after someone coining fine gold-silver tokens. His coins will be worth even more than their silver content once the dollar fails....as his jail stint will look ridiculous in that day. Won't be long before the public gets angry and pushes their agenda for reform...we're just not their yet. Magic coming out of the hats of the government is rather good...for the time being...the short term anyway.
Hey Peter. Do you think Obama is doing all this so that he can win voters for next years election? Perhaps after he gets elected is when the cookie crumbles.
contd, the govt assigning arbitrary face value to coins ends up putting Gresham's law into effect. Inevitably, the govt runs into a situation where the coinage is overvalued (it benefits from this situation very much), this drives real money NotHaus' metal out of circulation and into hoarders hands. The concept of the dollar is very abstract. The concept of any currency is unecessary. It only exists to rape and pillage purchasing power silently. We should just price things in terms of metal.
@jeffiek Why is a currency necessary? Even with gold backed paper, it still gives the govt room to wiggle and inflate beyond their actual reserves. Yes, there eventually is a limit to paper printing on a metal standard but, lets pretend USA went back on gold standard, I would not feel like my currency was as good as gold. Whoever controls the issue of the currency would find a way to scam the people. I might be helpful if we could agree on a definition of currency before we go any futher
@lilbromarky1 It's a matter of expressing yourself clearly.
Currency is that item (any item) that is used for exchange but (typically) not consumed.
When you price things in metal, the metal IS the currency. Should people prefer to carry receipts instead of the actual metal makes no difference.
However, you have introduced the possibility of fraud - a receipt for which no metal exists. The actual metal itself ( gold is a good choice, silver and others also work ) is STILL the currency.
In addition to being jailed for a politically contrived crime, Bernard has lost his right to vote, which even if he had been jailed for counterfeiting, would make him a political prisoner.
The people on fast money are actors Schiff. You are right they don't know anything. Nothaus was an idiot. Thanks for reminding me about him again though. I'm going to look into making my own ingots as well. Wrong wrong WRONG! He should never have denominated his ingots in DOLLARS. The irony is that his money is more real than Federal Reserve notes.
@binky4647 So what if he calls them dollars. The U.S. does not have a copyright on the word "dollar". There are Canadian dollar, Australian Dollars, Eastern Caribbean dollar, etc. Also play money is denominated in dollars and looks a lot more like the real think than liberty dollars. The important thing is that Liberty Dollars do not claim to be legal tender and would never be mistaken for actual U.S. coin or currency.
@binky4647 There are a few currencies that have the word dollar on them. There are numerous coins also minted by various agencies in the USA with the word dollar, some of them direct reproductions of older official US currency, others just random coins. The problem here is that he didn't pay the US Treasury a licensing fee and didn't specifically describe the product as "bullion" in all advertisements. Basically, he didn't pay the right bribes or fees' however you choose to describe it.
@binky4647 I thought the same thing you did about using the word "dollar". The term dollar is missleading to some people im sure. He should have used the word "round" instead.
@King100Joe the price of gold can only go up from here, not down. Gold is worth too much as a currency, resisting corrosion & in rare supply. The right way to price gold is in units of inventory of other goods & vice-versa. The currency you are using to measure the "price" won't even exist very soon.
buffet says use shoe polish...to polish your gold...and wait for someone to pay you a better price......lolgold trades on paper too...print machine is working just as hard for it...think about it
America once was great, 200 years ago, but ppl think its all gone to shit in the recent years, wrong. america has been propped up to become a global powerhouse for decades, and the powers that be have used that global power to manipulate the rest of the world as they see fit. now that america has served its role, it is now being weakened to ensure that we americans cannot efficiently fight back, its sad, but its not to late. arm yourselves with knowledge, band together, their NWO will fail
peter always makes great common sense points, but what HE doesnt understand, or at least he isnt talking about, is that a propped up economy and everything that comes with it, IS the plan, america is obviously being propped up and weakened, now why is that? america was hijacked along time ago, our future was sold along time ago. why? because the globalists who, globally, own everything are using america as a tool to spread their global control grid agenda

Mr. von NotHaus was convicted under a section of the United States Code that makes it a crime to manufacture or pass "any coins of gold or silver or other metal, or alloys of metals, intended for use as current money, whether in the resemblance of coins of the United States or of foreign countries, or of original design." The law was enacted during the Civil War, soon after the Union began issuing the paper scrip known as greenbacks.

Nice Reporting! Isn't it incredible that most people will bend over backwards to harm a good citizen while providing a further layer of protection for the most corrupt, nefarious organization the country has ever seen: the Talmudic controlled Federal Reserve system of debt enslavement money. Talmudic Jews, the most duplicitous, best organized, and possibly cleverest group on the planet, control major institutions worldwide, however, breaking the grip of Talmudic perfidy is next to impossible!

Peter i dont think if they raise interest rates that people are going to loose jobs , the economy has ran fine on 6-7-8 percent rates...What government is really worried about is that home price will drop dramatically...and this is what needs to happen to bet back to normality.So what if the Investors and Speculaters loose money , that is the element of risk in investing.

How would peter schiff like it if someone copied his name, stole his business entities names and trademarks and started operating a business like his - not only like his, but with the same name pretending to be him. Maybe someone should open up another Euro-Pacific Capital and call themselves Peter Schiff and start stealing his clients, or misleading his existing clients. How would he like that? A counterfeit EuroPac. I bet he wouldn't think that's so funny

Someone was stamping $20 1oz silver coins in 2008 with $50 face value. I'm not suprised that annoyed someone because silver was no where near that price. However labeling him a terrorist is wrong. Utah just decided to use gold and silver money so does that make Utah at terrorist state?

Two individuals that agree to a method of exchange for goods or services are completely within their rights to do so and are under no obligation to adhere to one method over another. These banksters are going to get theirs someday and I hope it's sooner than later so I can witness the fed downfall as others did in our past history.

Peter you are missing some issues. First the legalities. A "coin" has a specific definition under law. People cannot make coins, they can however make ingots that are round in shape. Second he put a value on it, why didn't he just put the weight and purity and they would have left him alone, he basically monetized it by putting a value on it. I agree with you that he is being made example of and unfairly prosecuted; however, the law is very tricky and is not always what it seems.
GoldSilverNetwork 11 months ago
@GoldSilverNetwork If people cannot make coins, then how are quarters and nickels made? Aren't these made by people?
I agree that he shouldn't have used the word 'dollar', that gave these psychopaths the supposed reason to attack him, but I disagree that only these guys can make coins. If it's got gold or silver in it and it looks like a coin, then it's a coin. I've seen coins from the Roman era that have some gold, they aren't used as money today but they are still coins.
TreachMarkets 10 months ago
@TreachMarkets Obviously I am talking about the general public when referring to "people" as opposed to the governing authority.
Use of the word dollar is not really the issue, it is that he put an actual dollar value on the coin, that is the issue, if he just put a weight and purity he would have had no problem as there are many such rounds in existence. No they are not coins, look up the legal definition of coin before going further.

@TreachMarkets This is a matter of law, legal definition is important, thus it needs to be looked at in that context, not everyday layman vocabulary. This is why many people in the liberty or sovereignty movements get themselves behind bars. They dont read the laws and make assumptions. If this man did what he did during the civil war or revolutionary war he would have been executed for treason. I am not saying it is right, but people need to understand what they are fighting for and against.
GoldSilverNetwork 10 months ago
@GoldSilverNetwork That's a good point! But isn't the same true for foreign currency? There are exchange values, and the only difference I can see is that most currencies have an exchange value recognized by the US. I purchased the $100 Trillion Zimbabwe notes (no longer a currency) and exchanged US money for them. Certainly I can sell those for US dollars, gold, silver or anything else I can barter for. I'm not sure if it would be different if he produced and monetized a world coin.
WealthGuardShow 10 months ago
@WealthGuardShow Read the laws of your country and look up the definition of "coin" that will answer your own questions. "Coin(s)" are very specific words defined in the laws and it is not what you think it is. Just because something is flat and round does no make it a coin, but if you call it a coin then you need to understand what you are saying. The government knows the law, and Bernard like many on this board do not. The laws are there, and posted for all, Bernard failed to follow.

@B5Inquisitor - You are incorrect. The LD notes were backed by specific amounts of silver, in the form of rounds with a face value of $10. When the moveup occured, you were able to trade in, say, a $10 note worth 1oz. for a new $20 note worth 1oz.
rodjacksonxatgmail 11 months ago
I admit that I had a problem with the Liberty dollars. It occurred to me that the paper notes were for $10 worth of silver instead of the specific weight of silver such as 1 ounce. As the price of silver would rise that $10 note would be backed by less silver. I imagine that it was the same for gold but I never bought any of those. Do not get me wrong as I think it was a great idea. I have almost 100 of those coins now and I have no intention of giving them up.

Peter, I don't agree with your concept that he was prosecuted because people were bartering with his coins... there is a company you have promoted (or at least mentioned) on your old shortwave broadcasts which provides a service for people to use fractions of grams of gold for payments. It's just that he didn't pay off the correct officials (in bribes or fees, which are essentially the same here) like the rest of the gold and silver minters in the USA.

i disagree with your comment that getting a counterfeit $20 bill is not fraud. the moment a person or a bank realizes its fake and refuses to accept it, is the moment youve been defrauded. the bill itself could be exchanged several times before its discovered, but youve been defrauded once its no longer accepted as a medium of exchange.
Slayer8957 11 months ago
@Slayer8957 You missed my point. It is not fraud in the sense that whether you have a real bill or a counterfeit bill the Federal Reserve will not give you any gold or silver. In the past, the holder of a real federal reserve notes could get gold gold or silver, while the holders of counterfeit bills could not. But I am not saying it is ok to counterfeit the counterfeit bills currently circulating as U.S. currency. The government maintains its monopoly on counterfeiting.

I think that the conviction was likely based on a crime which is codified and defined in such a way as to prohibit what happened. It is not classic counterfeiting, however. So the jury may have been correct in their decision (though they could have nullified). This law, if it exists, is still silly, however and should be repealed.

contd, the govt assigning arbitrary face value to coins ends up putting Gresham's law into effect. Inevitably, the govt runs into a situation where the coinage is overvalued (it benefits from this situation very much), this drives real money NotHaus' metal out of circulation and into hoarders hands. The concept of the dollar is very abstract. The concept of any currency is unecessary. It only exists to rape and pillage purchasing power silently. We should just price things in terms of metal.

@lilbromarky1 It's a matter of expressing yourself clearly.
Currency is that item (any item) that is used for exchange but (typically) not consumed.
When you price things in metal, the metal IS the currency. Should people prefer to carry receipts instead of the actual metal makes no difference.
However, you have introduced the possibility of fraud - a receipt for which no metal exists. The actual metal itself ( gold is a good choice, silver and others also work ) is STILL the currency.

Mr. von NotHaus was convicted under a section of the United States Code that makes it a crime to manufacture or pass "any coins of gold or silver or other metal, or alloys of metals, intended for use as current money, whether in the resemblance of coins of the United States or of foreign countries, or of original design." The law was enacted during the Civil War, soon after the Union began issuing the paper scrip known as greenbacks.

@jonesey5168 The problem is that the public is totally lame. The Govt can easily find 12 dumbasses who are incapable of understanding the most basic concepts of liberty. GREAT VID. It is a classic. Thanks.

Nice Reporting! Isn't it incredible that most people will bend over backwards to harm a good citizen while providing a further layer of protection for the most corrupt, nefarious organization the country has ever seen: the Talmudic controlled Federal Reserve system of debt enslavement money. Talmudic Jews, the most duplicitous, best organized, and possibly cleverest group on the planet, control major institutions worldwide, however, breaking the grip of Talmudic perfidy is next to impossible!
