Any one who thinks the dollar has intrinsic value, has proven with their words, they have no conception and understanding of real money. Script is no more than a check, an IOU promising to pay something of value. It use to be gold or silver was exchanged for the script, until the people allowed the govt to hoodwink them into beliving the lie, the script was the money and not the gold or silver. The faith of the American sheeple to believe the lie when the truth is all around them, in history, in economics, in literature...all they have to do is read and understand, is amazing. And Mr. Smith has shown he bought it hook, line & sinker. When the bottom falls out and people want real money, not the fake paper, then will he and all the rest finally comprehend the truth.
