      To delve a little deeper down the rabbit hole as to the plans of what's to come...
      Check out my contribution to Page 5

      Oh, and be sure to read my prophetic recurring dream of two moons which was actually my first post on this forum...

      Well they are worth more...but the problem is the elite can't gather all the leaves up so they would hate that. Not to mention the environment. And it would take a massive propaganda campaign to convince people leaves are worth money. Even if they did trust it enough you'd have the same problem as you do with the bills you currently use. And added problem is the elite would be out of control of the leaves in the short term so everyone would seem rich and the illusion would fall apart very quick. Where as your paper notes can be centralized, not copied. They can move them around with imaginary numbers for a bit. Keeping the illusion alive.

      Can we get real and realize what value stands for?

      Money used to always been made of gold. If you take a gold coin that they use in the US and you go any where in the world, it will be accepted as money. Even if the economy collpased and the government was wiped out, your money would keep 100% of its value. It has value because the gold in it has value.

      With paper dollars that are not even backed with anything, the value is only what the government says its worth. If the economy hits a depression your money loses a lot of value. If something happens to the government your money loses value. You are basing all your wealth on the actions of others, if they screw up your screwed as well. Thats why gold coins, or atleast paper dollars fully backed with gold are a safer way to save and hold money.

      I`m not sure there`s enough gold to fully back all of the world`s currencies ...

      U.S. NATIONAL DEBT CLOCK
      The Outstanding Public Debt as of NOW is:


      The estimated population of the United States is 303,343,578
      so each citizen's share of this debt is $29,856.73.

      The National Debt has continued to increase an average of
      $1.41 billion per day since September 29, 2006!

      Here's some lyrics for an older song of ours I rap on called,

      'Depth Ride'...

      Most people try,
      in the end they cry,
      and they wonder why,
      Did it happen to me?

      People put on their masks,
      while they take out the trash,
      living life for cash,
      How could this be?

      Society dies,
      supersize your fries,
      watch that weight on your thighs,
      Is this the way to be free?

      I'm here to disanoint,
      by making a point,
      but first light up that joint,
      The lie is money...
      The lie is money...
      The lie is money...

      ??????&#165;&#165;&#165;&#165;&#165;&#165;&#165;$$ $$$$$$&#165;&#165;&#165;&#165;&#165;&#165;???????



      Oh... and that .XX cents is my contribution to the debt just for shits and giggles...I bought a pack of gum and just decided never to pay the credit card company back in order to make a point...

      Its like when they think they are mind tripping you by putting gas prices or some other lame crap at... $99.99 and 9/10 of a cent...just so you won't feel the nice round number like 100....such blatant frivolity...

      SUPERSIZE SET FOR ONLY 30 CENTZ!?!? OMG RLY!!!!?? I'LL TAKE 8!!!!!!

      MOOO!! COWS FOR THE SLAUGHTER

      Hell, the black helicopters won't even need to use their scopes to round up most americans come herding time...

      They won't even need to use the force... anywhere they fire will hit most of their dumbed-down, lazy, fat targets...

      I'm interested to know where you got your figures/stats from. According to my sources (namely Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki) Our national deficit is only a little over 1.05 trillion dollars.

      Sure there is. The thing about gold is theres always enough. Gold works just as well if a dollar equals one ounce or 1/100th of an ounce. There is always silver as well, which works just fine.

      Hahhhaha, Solyskye..that's a great set of photos, and sadly represents too many americans!!! Heh.

      Yay for Canada...it' about time they get some recognition that they do things so much better...though I still doubt any United-Statesian would take a Canadian dollar even though they'd be getting an advantage. how sad...

      I heard somethere that the amount of gold currently used in the world would only fill an average sized house. Makes sense though, since most gold is pressed quite flat and stretched out.

      Still, I can't confirm it.

      If you base money off gold you can always divided gold into smaller quantities. Thats not to say everyone will have money, or own gold. But you can back all money using nothing but gold.

      I like the situation partly. Firstly, it means cheaper imported products. Secondly, it means deindustrialization of my country. Bittersweet feeling.
