Free Competition in Currency Act, by US Rep. Ron Paul
2007-12-13 07:00:00 Madame Speaker, I rise to introduce the Free Competition in Currency Act. This act would eliminate two sections of US Code that, although ostensibly intended to punish counterfeiters, have instead been used by the government to shut down private mints. As anti-counterfeiting measures, these sections are superfluous, as 18 USC 485, 490, and 491 already grant sufficient authority to punish counterfeiters. The two sections this bill repeals, 18 USC 486 and 489, are so broadly written as to effectively restrict any form of private coinage from competing with the products of the United States Mint. Allowing such statutes to remain in force as a catch-all provision merely encourages prosecutorial abuse. One particular egregious recent example is that of the Liberty Dollar, in which federal agents seized millions of dollars worth of private currency held by a private mint on behalf of thousands of people across the country. read more

Liberty Dollar Factory Raided By FBI - Plant Makes "Ron Paul Dollar"
2007-11-16 11:45:00 First, I didn't know it was legal to make an alternative currency, but the backers of Libery Dollar claim this is so. Their headquarters was raided by the FBI on Thursday. But before we get to that, here's the information on the Liberty Dollar:The Federal Reserve creates inflation when it issues US dollars backed by government debt. Since 1913, when the Federal Reserve was created by Congress, your money has lost 96% of its purchasing power due to inflation. The more "money" the Federal Reserve creates - the less your Federal Reserve "money" will buy.From 1913 to 2001 the national debt grew to $6 trillion in 88 years. In the next three years it climbed to $7 trillion dollars in 2004. In just one year it climbed sharply to over $8 trillion dollars. The acceleration of the national debt is alarming. The corresponding loss of your purchasing power may also accelerate in the near future.Now you can profit from the coming inflation with the inflation proof REAL money - the 100% g...

Liberty Dollar Coins Strike At Heart Of U.S. Mint
2006-09-18 02:00:01 Check out those coins in your pocket a little bit closer. If you have a Liberty Dollar coin and try to spend it, you could be going to jail. The United States Mint is none too happy with the manufacturers of the Liberty Dollar coin, and has issued a warning to those who try to use it as currency. Nonetheless, many people are more than pleased to use the coin as currency. The safe bet, obviously, is to collect the coins and treat them like collectibles. Alternatively, you could fill up your bunker with them. |
