<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Nacho1, post: 1993211, member: 72391&quot;]I think the dollar in its current state is failing. And its really our own fault. I can not believe they agreed to this stupid Federal Reserve idea. Every dollar that is printed is instant debt. Why are we even outsourcing out money production? I really think JFK had it right when he made Executive Order (E.O.) 11110. We should have stayed at the least on the silver certificates idea. Here is C &amp; P for those of you not familiar with his order.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>President Kennedy&#039;s Executive Order (E.O.) 11110 modified the pre-existing Executive Order 10289 issued by U.S. President Harry S. Truman in 1951, and stated the following:</p><p>&quot;The Secretary of the Treasury is hereby designated and empowered to perform the following-described functions of the President without the approval, ratification, or other action of the President...&quot;</p><p>The order then lists tasks (a) through (h) which the Secretary can now do without bothering the President. None of the powers assigned to the Treasury in E.O. 10289 relate to money or to monetary policy. Kennedy&#039;s E.O. 11110 then instructs that:</p><p>SECTION 1. Executive Order No. 10289 of September 9, 1951, as amended, is hereby further amended (a) By adding at the end of paragraph 1 thereof the following subparagraph (j):</p><p>&#039;(j) The authority vested in the President by paragraph (b) of section 43 of the Act of May 12, 1933, as amended (31 U.S.C. 821(b)), to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury not then held for redemption of an outstanding silver certificates, to prescribe the denominations of such silver certificates, and to coin standard silver dollars and subsidiary silver currency for their redemption,&#039; and (b) By revoking subparagraphs (b) and (c) of paragraph 2 thereof.</p><p>SECTION 2. The amendments made by this Order shall not affect any act done, or any right accruing or accrued or any suit or proceeding had or commenced in any civil or criminal cause prior to the date of this Order but all such liabilities shall continue and may be enforced as if said amendments had not been made.</p><p>John F. Kennedy, THE WHITE HOUSE, June 4, 1963.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
