Only the Federal Reserve Note claims that it is a dollar. All of the others I listed before were "payable in Dollars" (Constitutional dollars), even the United States Note. The types were indicated by the color of their seal and the wording on them.
The green paper was just a check to be paid, just like you writing a check. No different, just more convenient. Now our monopoly FRN is payable only with another FRN - bankers are making tomorrow's FRN ever more worth-less than the day before.
Do not put all out eggs in one basket. There is a place for Hard money and a place for fiat money. The hard money keeps the fiat money honest and the fiat money keeps the hard money liquid. As recently as 1932 we had six different kinds of money in circulation at one time - Gold, Silver, US Notes, FRNs, FRNBs (yes the Fed had both backed and fiat at one time) and National Bank (local bank) Notes. Only the FRN actually claims that it is the dollar!
@luxomni - Sorry FRBN not FRNB. That's what I get for typing before my coffee.
Federal Reserve Bank Note as opposed to a Federal Reserve Note, the only currency allowed to circulate today other than the personal check which still ends up being covered by an FRN rather than real money.

Japan issues their own currency. They don't have the debt, but they've printed themselves into a hole. Fiat systems don't work for long. We need a national system of competitive currencies. You can trade whatever you want. Hoarding will do no good.
State govts are constitutionally bound to use only gold/silver to pay debt. The US govt can back money with anything. They could back it with silver and/or copper, etc, if the bankers hoarded gold. I've heard of bankers hoarding gold but not silver, and if they know the US govt will switch backing under a hoarding threat, it would put a fatal dent in their plans.
If the bankers hoarded gold and silver, it would hit less hard than if those metals were required for a national currency. The state govts would have enough gold/silver from US mining, but our corrupt Federal govt has restricted mining US land by Americans but has let the Chinese mine the same land.
I've been having some success at helping people to understand that money was originally created out of the need for an efficient medium of exchange (as compared to the relatively cumbersome barter system) and that it was NOT meant to be used as a leveraging instrument by extortionists.

if jones has watched and sells/supports The Money Masters DVD- then he would be in support of a fiat currency and not a gold standard! Just a fiat currency run by the country and not a private corporation IE the fed
they silver shoes worn by dorothy while walking along the gold road represented a belief in bi-metallism by frank l. baum, which, at the time would have led to drastic inflation and only very temporarily helped out a small minority of farmers known as populists, who also promoted the unconstitutional federal income tax. the promotion of an illegal federal income tax is treasonous to me, but not the constitution, which guarantees the right of free speech idiocy
you're wrong. Fiat money is not the problem, the problem is that private bankers can create it instead of congress itself. That's the reason why congress is working for the bankers, and not the people.
Get the DVD, Bill Still explains is perfectly and his solution is solid - unlike Ron Paul's Gold Standard!
@TheHorsenation Fiat money is counterfeit. It's not a commodity. It is a fraud which is backed by force. Congress has no power to issue fiat money. It is absolutely illegal. Politicians are corrupt. They GAVE the banks the power to counterfeit, and you people think that everything would be fine if they would just counterfeit themselves? They have no scruples. They don't follow constitutions or adhere to any rules you plan to set. You trust congress??? They're sick evil bastards. Wake up.
Fiat Money works well, when the people delegate it's creation to a governmental agency (like congress). Sure, congress sucks now, but they are so corrupt because the Fiat money creation is in private hands.
ROME rise to a worldpower with Fiat copper money, they declined when they adapted the gold standard!!!!!
Colonial Scrip was Fiat money, it let the colonies boom, until the British demanded GOLD.
Gold Standard is easily controlled by private bankers!
Just watch "The Money Masters" (free on google video) or "The secret of Oz" or both films, then you may understand it.
Fiat money is not bad when controlled by a public agency, it's fractional reserve banking in private hands what's bad.
The Gold Standard marks the decline of the Roman Empire. Gold market is too easily cornered by the rich. Cant exlplain this good in few words, watch the movie.
@MillionthUsername And the first thing the brand new fed gov't did was to bail out the failed currency by forcing the same poor slobs upon whom the garbage paper was foisted to PAY TAXES to prop up the notes so that the banks wouldn't lose. Before anyone knew of it, gov't insiders went around buying up the near-worthless notes from hapless citizens ready to dump them and then they cashed in afterward making huge profits off the backs of taxpayers. Same story. Never changes. Wake up.
you are wrong. Colonial Scrip was so successful that the Bank of England got scared and passed the Currency Act in 1764 which banned Colonial Crip and demanded that the colonies pay their taxes in Gold or Silver coins.
The stuff you are talking about happened 20 years later!!!
Bill Still has a new video covering the goldstandard and Ron Paul:
watch?v=f8JGhVPO90g
(part 2 follows soon hopefully)
but let's leave the gold standard aside for the moment.
Do you at least agree that we have to take away the right to create money out of private bankers' hands? Basically Nationalize the Federal Reserve, put it under Congress again, and gratually raise the fractional reserve requirements of private banks to 100 percent?
As I understand it, Bill Still says the Gold Standard is no solution, because the gold market can be easily cornered by rich bankers, with the result that poor people or poor countries have no gold and thus no money to engage in business.
He sure likes Silver a lot more, cause it is more plenty. I don't know how he'd stand towards a Gold+Silver Standard. would be interesting.
It's just stupid and a sign of not understanding money to base it on a commodity (like eg. gold), because the idea of money is to facilitate services and exchange of commodities. The Gold market IS easily manipulated by rich groups, and it is a corset which prevents the currency to be adjusted to the economy.
Fiat money issued by a transparent government agency, and regulated by a constitutional amendment is the best solution. Forbid government to borrow ANY money!
@TheHorsenation I own gold. Can you tell me how my gold is "manipulated by rich bankers"? It's still here and there are no bankers in sight. Did you not read my last post? What you are referring to is GOV'T GRANTING SPECIAL PRIVILEGES TO BANKS which enable them to CREATE MONEY OUT OF NOTHING so that they can LEVERAGE the CONTROL of commodities and other assets. This has NOTHING TO DO WITH GOLD! Gold is a metal. It doesn't write laws. Have you seen metals writing banking laws?
@MillionthUsername If everybody could coin money, that would increase the risk of counterfitting like false alloys, coins that look like Gold, but are mixed with other metals etc. But letting a controlled institution coin your gold/silver for a small fee sure would be nice - unfortunately I dont know anybody digging for gold or silver :)
@TheHorsenation You don't have to worry. It's already been done before successfully. If you knew anything about the history of money you'd know that, but you don't, so you just say "bullshit" without reason. Even recently, the Liberty Dollar people were having great success in coining gold and silver as well as certificates till the feds shut them down. It isn't rocket science. Go online and look at all the companies who are right now selling their own rounds and bars. Don't be ignorant.
I still think Fiat money is the best solution, under some regulations:
* 100% reserve requirements - can only lend actual money you have.
* only the state's own bank can increase/decrease the ammount of money, they have to monitor inflation/deflation and be 100% transparent on how much they issue. in case of deflation, they can issue new money, in case of inflation they have to collect and destroy it (via taxes or whatever).
@TheHorsenation Fiat currencies never last though. I like your idea but I think once we had 10 years or so of an honest fiat system we should have a gold and silver standard with 100% reserve requirements.
you're wrong again. If you care about abuse you should quit supporting the Gold Standard, because over a short period of time the rich (bankers) will control the gold market as always, and thus control money AND government.
Gold based currencies always benefit the rich and lead to plutocracy.
The tally stick FIAT money system worked for over 700 years in England and made it great, based entirely upon "worthless" pieces of wood secured against counter-fitting.
@TheHorsenation If you're German, then why are you arguing with me about the US constitution? You presented a view which is the opposite of what it means! I asked you how they manipulate gold and you won't answer. I explained to you that the only reason they can manipulate the price of anything is that they are given special privileges in law. So the law is the problem, not gold. Why is that hard for you to understand? Don't call me ignorant when you can't even express yourself properly.
Maybe you realize at least, that it is stupid to have a gold standard when you dont have any gold. Likewise, if you are on a gold standard and run out of gold, as happened frequently in history, what are you gonna do? Stop all business, let people suffer just you got no gold? just realize how stupid a gold standard is.
if you want to back up currency, why not back it up by something that can be produced in the USA, like eg. horses, cattle, beef, or Harley Davidson bikes.
It's stupid to back up a currency with a commodity the people (aka the government) can not produce in a sufficient ammount to counter people cornering the market, which has happened to gold time after time.
You dont need to back it with any commodity, but if you want, do it like this. :)
@MillionthUsername indeed your position has some merit. I use to agree 100% with that assessment. However we cannot have a commodity backed currency because the super rich will always be able to manipulate the markets to there political gain. We need a fixed money supply issued by congress debt free. However this will not likely take place until after a currency crisis if and only if we can retake control of the states and congress.
If you have commodity money, what happens when you say, want to go to war? You can't. You're gonna have to find more gold, find more feathers or whatever.
So I shouldn't send my unwanted or broken gold/silver jewelry to the goldbuyers on t.v. for a few extra bucks? Just kidding. Seriously I always wondered who was getting all the gold/silver that dumb americans sent in. How do millions of insects stop a train from running them over? What do we do now? How do you stop something that is gigantic but invisible? It seems inevitable.
Systemic conflicts, We’ve been trained to think only in efficiency. That’s the only variable we know right? Not about diversity, right now we are going to find who are connected to whom? We’re talking about the 2 billion people who are living on $1.00 a day are they very interconnected to the economy of the world? We wouldn’t say so and that’s not what they think. They have trouble surviving and they have trouble getting money to the little roots at the end of their redistribution system.
Zionists are people who have all the money. They simply have no other challenge in life but to control and manipulate the population of the world. They have no conscience, so in short they’re the wost kind of criminals and they want a world government. What is a criminal without a conscience? A psychopath. Imagine being controlled and run by psychopaths? What would they get people to do for them? Imagine your children doing errands for psychopaths? No you cannot imagine that! Audit the Fed!
Bill Still seems to preach neo liberalism. That our government printing money is somehow better than few private bankers doing it. That our government can set the value of money and the public don't have to worry about the interest. That our government knows the concept of value system based on scarcity. Granted that such Utopian ideology would be wonderful, however he fails to recognize that the public will not accept such system. Back to you Alex.
Not just the money system needs to be fixed but government aswell to represent the people's interest instead of the banks.
The first step would be to make lobbying a sever felony that would be equilevant to a matter of national security. As it is now there is legalized crimes and injustices going on every day.
Yes another Utopian ideology "fixing the government". Government is a tool. You don't fix a tool. You use tool to fix things. That being said, it depends how often you like to fix things using government. We have, for a while now breaking things intentionally so you can fix it. Also the banks though may have a lobby group, they don't need one. If you make lobbing illegal, they'll just run for office instead of buying someone off. Good luck with that.
Ah, so your solution is to ignore the broken tool that is breaking the economy through the influence of banks.
Sorry, fixing gov't isn't a myth. Laws are made to be followed not to be ignored and by people that should be looking out for the people.
The problem with capitalism is that it encourages monopolies. Banks buy TV networks and then start promoting their new banker person that just quit their bank to be a politician.
The founders this country gave us the basic laws for us to follow. Sadly we have not. This is the same liberal argument I hear all the time. Lets pile new laws after another so that people can play hopscotch trying to avoid breaking any of it. Problem isn't with capitalism, the problem is with people who tend to be fascist. Monopoly is not an issue if everyone has equal chance to compete if the big boys don't use government to pass laws to block the little guys in competing.
In competition there are always winners and losers. Also in a system like this the winners children (who migh be losers) will have undue influence in the future with the capitalist gain in the system. While at the same time the options of the Loser's children (who might be winners) will not have options to advance and prove themselves in a tilted system. It's really a silly system that is doomed for failure and has been bailed out far too many times creating our problems today
Also if you are still using a tool that's broke, you are either too cheap to buy a new one as the founders indicated originally, or too stupid, spending time using a broken tool all this time to fix things since the last 100 years.
Huh? You fallen off subject... the tool is government. Buy a new government?
If the tool is broken you can't use the dang tool, you throw it away. Buy a new one? You mean the same fascist government of today? That's what fascism means, its the merger of corporation and state.
We need to "make" the new tool, which is the smart way of doing it. To be stupid about it going forward is to buy it. The founders didn't buy a new tool, they "made" it.
I was listening to the Alex Jones show & this guy was on, seems to me that he's in it for the money more than anything ...Don't get me wrong - the info is very good, but I don't see him giving permission like Alex, to duplicate the film & give it out to many people after U purchase a legit copy!

This Is A Must See For All. A freedom from a debt based economy is so possible, so real, a must see! Peace to you all.
Also, FREE TRADE is another big enamy. Free trade, means trading without rules - free of rules, for the traders.
This means they can screw you over, in any way tehy want, and there's nothign to stop them.
Julius Caesar tried to put a stop to this, and to offer slaves their freedom after only 7 years, so that they had hope, and would co-operate, for this short period.
Today, they work you your whole lives, and then rob you - this is because they murdered Caesar, and destroyed his rules.
Bill Still is should be called Bill SHILL, or he's just an idiot.
How can this dipshit honestly argue that fiat money is the answer because the Treasury owns gold??? Why do you think they own the gold? Cause they figure they can fool the public into accepting their paper instead by sending out cranks like Bill Still to make his misleading movies. Someone needs to shoot that asshole.

This plan was first used by the ROMANS, who killed men, and stole women.
George Washington wrote in 1789, “We may one day become a great commercial and flourishing nation. But if in the pursuit of the means we should unfortunately stumble again on unfunded paper money or similar species of fraud, we shall assuredly give a fatal stab to our national credit in its infancy
Unfortunately, nothing will preserve [liberty] but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined. Patrick Henry
@MrWakethesheeple I am assuming that the banks are not quite through fleecing us yet and will try to prop up the current system a bit longer. Cap and Trade will create billions for Wall Street banks in the energy derivatives market. Goldman Sachs spent more money lobbying for Cap and trade than they spent lobbying against banking reform.
I think Bill is mischaracterizing the position of Ron Paul and Peter Schiff. They don't want a gold standard mandated by government. Ron Paul just wants competing currencies to be legalized. If you and I want to trade in silver, we should. They don't want government to force everyone to use gold.
The Beast will have a perfect global monetary system not just that the elites will love, but that the world will love. This is one of Alex's downsides. By promoting solutions to the monetary problem, he's unwittingly setting folks up for a deception.
The central bankers cut their teeth with a gold standard in place. A gold standard will benefit the same criminals that the current system benefits. I like Ron Paul, but he bought into the Von Mises fraud. Von Mises was the son of a jewish financeer. I agree with most of what Mises says, but the gold standard is the turd in the punch bowl. Owning personal gold is smart though.
@nippytaytay I agree about US debt free currency, our nation was founded that way and the 1800's was all about maintaining that currency. The un-civil "civil war" was the result. The "civil war" was totally about economics, slavery, as unjust as it is anywhere, was undermining the 'YANKEE" banking system in NY city because they had to pay a wage for labor...and the SOUTHERN states did not.
@nippytaytay Assuming after total economic collapse gold is still worth the equivalent of dollars it is now. A dollar will be 1/1400th of an ounce of gold. How do you expect to get change for a loaf of bread if you pay for it with an ounce of gold?
@WoodlandRavah The US is a major producer of silver. Wouldn't it be a better idea to start out partially backing our currency with metal? Countries have done this in the past. Even if it was only 10 cents on the dollar that would cause the world to prefer our currency over the Euro.
"Wouldn't it be a better idea to start out partially backing our currency with metal?"
We used to, about 1950s I dont know the exact date or condition but yeah we went off the standard, just so "they" could destabalize the US dollar. They really want an international currency, but that wont happen if enough people can own precious metals. China recently allowed their citizens to own silver... Hmm...
@WoodlandRavah The dollar was a silver certificate until Nixon ended the practice by executive order in Jan 1976. Paper dollars could be exchanged for silver dollars. When the amount of silver in a silver dollar became worth more than a dollar people started wanting to exchange. If the dollar were only partially backed by silver that would not happen again.
It's isn't that Bill Still is "anti-Gold Standard", it is that he is a fool in believing that governments could ever be trusted to have restraint from spending if they are given the powers to create fiat. He doesn't mention that only during periods of the gold standard, did wages rise in accord to price decreases of goods. He only harps on about how terrible bankers were and conflated them with gold, when the reality is, they were behind all the fiat printing schemes like the Greenbacks.
Banks don't hold all the gold and silver. Far from it. ETF's and SLV's are not physical bullion. Anyone with half a brain will realise that and get themselves some gold and/or silver We need a gold/silver standard but gold and especially silver prices are going to the moon regardless.

Read Murray Rothbard's History of Money and Banking in the US.
Get the PDF at mises dot org.
Rothbard goes through all the gov't and banking schemes
and explodes many of the myths that monetary cranks
like Bill Still circulate.
The reason people always want to control money, and will lie
endlessly in order to fool you, is that it brings them
power. Real money, however, is simply a highly marketable
commodity that allows us to trade without controllers.

Fiat Money works well, when the people delegate it's creation to a governmental agency (like congress). Sure, congress sucks now, but they are so corrupt because the Fiat money creation is in private hands.
ROME rise to a worldpower with Fiat copper money, they declined when they adapted the gold standard!!!!!
Colonial Scrip was Fiat money, it let the colonies boom, until the British demanded GOLD.
Gold Standard is easily controlled by private bankers!

@TheHorsenation You are really confused. First of all, no one
delegated any power to anyone to monopolize money by means
of instituting a perpetual fraud backed by violence.
You're making the idiotic claim that congress is only corrupt
because of banking? What, they are angles otherwise?
Rome was a gang of decadent murderers which invaded and
conquered every people around them. They debased their
money as all gov'ts have and went broke.
Colonial scrip ended up WORTHLESS like ALL fiat $.

@TheHorsenation Gold is "easily controlled"? How?
You are saying things that are exactly backwards! Do

a piece of paper with made up numbers on it saying

but let's leave the gold standard aside for the moment.
Do you at least agree that we have to take away the right to create money out of private bankers' hands? Basically Nationalize the Federal Reserve, put it under Congress again, and gratually raise the fractional reserve requirements of private banks to 100 percent?
TheHorsenation 1 year ago
@TheHorsenation There is a lot of mischief going on when
people trash "the gold standard". Most never explain what
they mean. Typically they refer to a gov't controlled system
which is antithetical to the whole idea of gold as money
in the first place. I imagine that's what Still is doing too.
Yes, end the Fed and implement 100% reserves is ok, but
also eliminate legal tender, etc.
But the gov't must get completely out of the money business
for the problem to truly be solved. That is key.

the best way to cure people of fiat money ever devised
to simply allow EVERYONE to do it. Let's see if it can
survive a free market. (I'm sure you meant take away
the monopoly banks have, and of course I agree with that.)

As I understand it, Bill Still says the Gold Standard is no solution, because the gold market can be easily cornered by rich bankers, with the result that poor people or poor countries have no gold and thus no money to engage in business.
He sure likes Silver a lot more, cause it is more plenty. I don't know how he'd stand towards a Gold+Silver Standard. would be interesting.

@TheHorsenation People who are against sound money
always make these silly claims about gold, but never about

Bankers have been selling gold and using all kinds of
tricks to keep it down now but they don't succeed for long.
And gold isn't even monetized now.
If gold is money, then they don't have infinite paper
"dollars" to manipulate markets anyway. That
manipulation stems from the leverage of FRB.
What if they "corner" Bill's fiat dollars? :-/

@MillionthUsername
It's just stupid and a sign of not understanding money to base it on a commodity (like eg. gold), because the idea of money is to facilitate services and exchange of commodities. The Gold market IS easily manipulated by rich groups, and it is a corset which prevents the currency to be adjusted to the economy.
Fiat money issued by a transparent government agency, and regulated by a constitutional amendment is the best solution. Forbid government to borrow ANY money!

@MillionthUsername If everybody could coin money, that would increase the risk of counterfitting like false alloys, coins that look like Gold, but are mixed with other metals etc. But letting a controlled institution coin your gold/silver for a small fee sure would be nice - unfortunately I dont know anybody digging for gold or silver :)

@TheHorsenation Jewelers and coin dealers deal with
precious metals all the time. There are ways to assure
accuracy in weight and fineness, etc. The free market will allow
for firms to produce quality money with certifications and

others will compete against. Also, paper gold/silver certificates will
have similar or better anti-counterfeit measures that today's

I still think Fiat money is the best solution, under some regulations:
* 100% reserve requirements - can only lend actual money you have.
* only the state's own bank can increase/decrease the ammount of money, they have to monitor inflation/deflation and be 100% transparent on how much they issue. in case of deflation, they can issue new money, in case of inflation they have to collect and destroy it (via taxes or whatever).

@TheHorsenation Fiat currencies never last though. I like your idea but I think once we had 10 years or so of an honest fiat system we should have a gold and silver standard with 100% reserve requirements.

@TheHorsenation In the whole history of the world, there is
not one example of a fiat currency that has lasted. They have

It is absolutely insane to believe a monopoly power will not

you're wrong again. If you care about abuse you should quit supporting the Gold Standard, because over a short period of time the rich (bankers) will control the gold market as always, and thus control money AND government.
Gold based currencies always benefit the rich and lead to plutocracy.
The tally stick FIAT money system worked for over 700 years in England and made it great, based entirely upon "worthless" pieces of wood secured against counter-fitting.

@TheHorsenation When informed libertarians talk about

NOT on society.
I understand that people can form a fiat system voluntarily.

if you want to back up currency, why not back it up by something that can be produced in the USA, like eg. horses, cattle, beef, or Harley Davidson bikes.
It's stupid to back up a currency with a commodity the people (aka the government) can not produce in a sufficient ammount to counter people cornering the market, which has happened to gold time after time.
You dont need to back it with any commodity, but if you want, do it like this. :)
TheHorsenation 1 year ago
@MillionthUsername indeed your position has some merit. I use to agree 100% with that assessment. However we cannot have a commodity backed currency because the super rich will always be able to manipulate the markets to there political gain. We need a fixed money supply issued by congress debt free. However this will not likely take place until after a currency crisis if and only if we can retake control of the states and congress.

In a free society, no one has that kind of power. They can only trade
things of value if they want gold.

"the super rich" at ANY time like they ALWAYS have and ALWAYS will do.

@WoodlandRavah The dollar was a silver certificate until Nixon ended the practice by executive order in Jan 1976. Paper dollars could be exchanged for silver dollars.

It's isn't that Bill Still is "anti-Gold Standard", it is that he is a fool in believing that governments could ever be trusted to have restraint from spending if they are given the powers to create fiat. He doesn't mention that only during periods of the gold standard, did wages rise in accord to price decreases of goods. He only harps on about how terrible bankers were and conflated them with gold, when the reality is, they were behind all the fiat printing schemes like the Greenbacks.
