Would You Accept Old US Gold And Silver Coins As Money?

YES!

The problem is we don't have enough. And will be faced with the same shortage of money. You got to change the system before it can function, get rid of the FED RESERVE, IRS and BIG GOV!

Money no matter how you look at it equals debt. Without debt there is no money

Imagine everyone paid off all their debts, nothing owed!

There would be no money in circulation, not only that, no body could do this to begin with , because physical money only amounts to some 4%. the rest is all digital transactions.

How far we really went

Yes because I'm coin collector. I've collected all the Morgan dollars of the 1800s and the Peace dollars of the early 1900s, plus numerous other coins dating back 2000 years.

I'd prefer to trade in actual gold and silver instead of coins because coins have a value beyond the metal it's made of that most people wouldn't know.

Yes I would. Let the Government crash themselves with their distributive paper money property liberal policies. Mean time the rest of us could be like FU! .. What are they going to do make us cut our coins in half for taxes? Nope, the people should have their own damn economy while the government can have theirs.

I would gladly accept a 50 cent silver Kennedy half dollar in payment for something that costs 50 cents!

And in college I was dumb enough, and addicted to cigarettes enough, to have spent a Kennedy half to buy a pack of cigarettes when cramming for finals.

Does 50 cents for a pack of smokes in college date me as "ancient?"

Bahahaha. I am a libertarian through and through. But I am not imbecilic enough to accept Ron Paul's ridiculous Gold-Standard policies. Any economist in the world will tell you how stupid the Gold Standard is. Plus, there isnt enough gold in the world to even back up America's 15 trillion dollar economy, let alone all the other economies in the world.

If you want an unstable, inflexible economy that is unable to deal with recessions and depressions, then by all means, let us return to the Gold Standard.

There is a reason why no Tier One nation is on the Gold Standard.

Yes.

Yeah, sure. Would love to get gold as payment.

Only if Ron Paul drops out of the Presidential race.

Because gold and silver are relatively soft metals they would wear down rather quickly and become less valuable. How would you account for that?

Actually in the US you cant LEGALLY accept anything other the officially minted US currency. Doing so carries a penalty.
