Guest guest Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Lots of great posts on this very important subject. Yes we are being rapped and robbed. The one big problem is our Founding Fathers are ignored and the laws they enacted. Read the first paragraph of Artice 10 of our Constitution it states what our monetary system shall be and the Coinage ACT of 1792 established a mint and regulates coinage. The Coinage Act also makes it a crime to debase the currency, is it therefore a crime to cause inflation? 6 years ago oil was $22 a barrel its now 4.5 times higher at $100 on Thrusday, gold was at $275 an ounce, but on Friday $863 thats an increase of 3.14 times, silver was at $4.58 an ounce, but on Friday $15.30 thats on increase of 3.34 times. 6 years ago milk was appx. $4.00 per gal. now its about $6.00 per. gal. Then theres the corn and wheat? Are the values of these products increasing or is the value of the bank notes we are paying being debased? The above increases are 314% to 450%, how much has our incomes increased? Who controls our monetary system, is it not a private bank called the Federal Reserve? Dont blame the farmers they are tangled in this web just like us consumers. " Let me control the issuance of a nations money and I care not who makes the laws " Sadly at this point in our history it appears that only Ron has a real understanding of the problems our nation faces and he is marginalized.
