So what do you call a desire to eliminate the existing ruling class because you are convinced that you could do a better job of ruling?Nope I am not advocating revolution. That is the last thing I wish for...

He still doesn't get it.I agree that coins are more durable, but their intrinsic value has nothing in common with their denominational value. Metals are commodities. Paper currency is more convenient, although I'm more likely to simply use a debit card nowadays for most of the purchases that I would otherwise make with cash.
We've let the intrinsic value get away from us, by looking for cheaper metals to make our coins from. But at the same time there are those who exported pennies for the metallic value, bringing them a bit over 2 cents for each penny that was minted prior to 1982. But when you consider $5.5 billion, and people harp about debt, is paper money that convenient. Especially when you see how many germs are carried on a well circulated bill.I agree that coins are more durable, but their intrinsic value has nothing in common with their denominational value.

How about you don't get it.He still doesn't get it.
Care to clarify? You just lost me.How about you don't get it.
You told NS I still didn't get it. Well I do get the cost savings switching to dollar coins over 'paper' (cotton) bills. So I'd say you don't get it.Care to clarify? You just lost me.
You mis-read my quote. I was referring to Swimmer's previous post, where he replied to your own post about metal coins lasting longer than paper money. He wasn't getting the point you (and Queen) were trying to put across about the lasting power of precious metals over declining fiat money. He fails to understand that fiat money always leads to eventual collapse.You told NS I still didn't get it. Well I do get the cost savings switching to dollar coins over 'paper' (cotton) bills.

Gotcha, my apologies.You mis-read my quote. I was referring to Swimmer's previous post, where he replied to your own post about metal coins lasting longer than paper money.

Along those lines....Gotcha, my apologies.
Am sure our currency and economy can be saved, no problem, Days, except that banker agents are in all positions of decision making in finance and government. Our Congress is riddled with them. They are all globalists, dedicated to the planned (Jewish) New World Order; and make no mistake that it is Jewish. [Time we brung out the Varmint, instead of dancing around the subject, for fear of being labeled racists].Along those lines....
My two prong defense against that collapse is for the nation to:
1) mint a fiat coin that is large enough to retire the debt, so the nation doesn't collapse with the FED dollar.
2) mint a real coin so that we Americans have a money supply that doesn't collapse with the FED dollar.
The FED dollar can not be saved; they have printed a quadrillion dollars out of thin air, backed by nothing. But there's no reason for America to let the FED take us down with them. (If only they hadn't bought off our entire government.)
Would if we minted real silver coins (solid pure silver) for...
$100
$500
And then minted real gold coin (solid pure gold) for...
$1000
$5000
And then minted fiat platinum coins (but still make them out of solid platinum) for...
$100,000,000
$500,000,000
that would probably do the trick. We are gonna suffer like crazy whenever our aquifers run dry anyway, no sense in adding the misery of a total currency meltdown.
Not just the Yuan. The Yen, the Euro, the Rupee for starters.

Unfortunately for our country, our citizens believe this is all conspiracy theory, refuse to look into the matter, and so keep doing what they have always done, thinking that maybe God will step in and save them from disaster at the last minute. Deus ex machina. Fact is, there can be no saving this stoopid bunch, or their economy, or their currency. The Chinese are screaming for the dropping of the U.S. dollar as the world's reserve currency, to be replaced by the Yuan, and they are being seriously listened to.
What about Vanguard? I hear they are a good mutual fund company.Corp'rates too don't forget Vanguard
Everything sits under them .........like a pyramid it is the top point and all else sits under it spaying out to the bottom. That is how the World is owned/controled by the few, unnoticed by most.What about Vanguard? I hear they are a good mutual fund company.
They are. I'd recommend them.What about Vanguard? I hear they are a good mutual fund company.
It's not a question of the efficiency of producing one form of currency over the other. What I don't "get" is the magical power of metal coinage. You might not "get" it either.Gotcha, my apologies.
