Thanks Bokababe! Sorry I'm late to the dance. With the exception of State "currencies", a VERY good article. I'm not certain but I believe our Founders gave the US congresscritters authority over a national currency. I don't necessarily see any inherent problem with that. Like everything else, it's the implementation. I'm sure someone else will chime in on the subject...





Please ~ping~ me to articles relating to the 10th Amendment/States Rights so I can engage the pinger.

I've stopped monitoring threads and unilaterally adding names to the ping list, so if you want on or off the list just say so.

Okay I will. A common national currency is the design of the founders. Full faith and credit - facilitates (regulates) interstate commerce - THE most important function of the federal government </my $.02>.

Good commentary. Except I’m not sure the “state currency” idea would work. It didn’t work too well in the “old days”. But I like the idea of repealing the 17th amendment. I wonder if you can track and directly chart the growth of the federal government once this was passed?

Really this might be a good idea—according to this commentary. However, I see the options drying up pretty quickly. This country, as a whole, is pretty much finished. Thanks to dimwit Marxists.
