<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Boss, post: 608774, member: 15110&quot;]Someone posted this and I thought it was a great response:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&quot;How *dare* they undermine U.S. currency. Don&#039;t they know that&#039;s the job of the U.S. government?</p><p>At least the Liberty dollars were backed by precious metal, unlike US currency which is backed by no more than a promise from a government that has become increasingly adept at breaking promises. How brazen of Liberty Dollar to notice that the emperor has no clothes?</p><p>I&#039;ve never owned a Liberty Dollar, and know no one involved, but I did look into them once online. At that time, they bore no resemblance to US coinage except for being flat and round (it *is* after all a coin), and the site was clear that the Libery Dollars were meant as a means of exchange among like-minded individuals who recognized the relative worthlessness of Federal Reserve Notes. Maybe their dealings grew shady at some point later on, or maybe this is just the government extinguishing an ember before it becomes a wildfire&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
