This is ridiculous. Bank notes meet all the criteria of what you label "fiat currency" except for one which is legal tender laws related which only came after the civil war period and which was never fully resolved until the mid 20th century. So because it's not legal tender then it isn't fiat? Preposterous. You're just looking for a new angle to move away from the main point of this conversation. You are also trying to skirt out of calling the dollar fiat currency while it was back by commodity. So what is your conviction? That the dollar wasn't fiat currency until it came off the international standard in the 70's? |

Laughing Man, just read the sources that I handed to you. I honestly don't know why you are continuing this argument; everything you say has already been refuted by me and the sources that I listed; I even quoted the bits that directly contradict you nearly word for word. I know your self image has you thinking that you know what you are talking about but you really don't. Again, just read the sources. They explain in plain language the difference between fiat money and representative money, they outline exactly when the U.S. and most of the rest of the world switched from representative gold and silver notes to fiat currency, and I'm sure somewhere in there fractional lending is explained as well (if not, I would be more than happy to explain it to you again as well as cite as many sources as you need to understand it.) |

I try to deny myself any illusions or delusions, and I think that this perhaps entitles me to try and deny the same to others, at least as long as they refuse to keep their fantasies to themselves. - Christopher Hitchens

You can read over the posts and decide for yourself what is right. When someone is arguing against the definition of a word that has been proved through a variety of sources, there is not much else to say. |
