<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fatima, post: 1276146, member: 22143&quot;]Reagan was convinced to sign the legislation that authorized the ASE and AGE.&nbsp; The legislation was put forth by none other than Ron Paul.&nbsp; Reagan liked the idea of giving people the power to use silver and gold as an alternate currency.&nbsp; However by the time it was to be voted on, Paul was not holding office and there legislation was changed to give nominal legal tender status to the coins.&nbsp;&nbsp; While this sounds innocent enough what it did was to make the coins useless as a currency.&nbsp;&nbsp; Legal tender means the coins have to be valued for official purposes at face value and not intrinsic value.&nbsp; Hence, you can pay your taxes with a AGE, but they will only recognize the face value for it.&nbsp;&nbsp; Yet if you try to take advantage of this by claiming face value for taxation purposes,&nbsp; the IRS/Treasury will hit you up for tax fraud.&nbsp; (already been done)</p><p><br /></p><p>The lesson of this story is the coins will not get a true value put on them as long as we have a congress which has sold out to the bankers.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
