Funny stuff....first in post #8 you claimed...and I quote:


Communities print their own currency to keep cash flowing<<

“No they can’t.”


Then..in post #12...AFTER being proven WRONG......you not only admit they CAN...you attempt justify it....with some BS about it being “voluntary”....

Again..the clear language:

“Article I, section 8, clause 5 of the United States Constitution delegates to Congress the power to coin money and to regulate the value thereof.”

If a “liberty dollar” is illegal...so is a “detroit dollar”...

You can cut and run...or you can argue the point...your choice...

Night.

No one but the federal government can create money. I was right from the get-go.

I just noted there are silly little workarounds that can be attempted. I was right from the start and my follow-ups are also correct.

Community scrip isn’t money — it is just couponing.
