<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SCNuss, post: 414872, member: 3609&quot;]&quot;Wow, I didn&#039;t think you had to read into it that much to realize that when they&#039;re talking about money being &#039;destroyed&#039; that it was a relative term.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>To expand on that a bit, I believe what the author is emphasizing is that our current currency is really an IOU from our government, but has no significant tangible value. The same is true for paper money. Much of it used to be backed by gold or silver, but not any more. All you have is the promise of the Government that our money has any value (with the exception of the silver, gold, and platinum bullion and/or collector coins).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
