#1 Calif had "Arnold Bucks", just pay for it with "Obama Bucks".

This is why the nation's currency was originaly bssed on Gold and Silver, as a Fiat currency technicaly it's worthless.

#5 $2T in today's dollars. Unbacked currency is only as valuable as peoples' confidence in it.

#6 The problm with Gold today is it's grossly overpriced to buy, and worth near nothing when you sell, there's no government mandated Standard anymore. I remember when you could go to any bank, give them a dollar and get a small glass bottle full of 99.9% silve granules, Can't now.

THAT was the Standard.

#9 In 1900es dollars?

Nope this was in 1975.
But you had to use a silver certificate (Dollar) which don't exist anymore except as collector's items.
Govt ordered them pu;;ed from circulation.
