                Lol... for a while now the US dollar's been backed up by hopes and dreams. Look up "fiat currency" on wikipedia. Scared yet?

                        First I believed it was Fort Knox, but I heard it was somewhere else actually. Can't remember the name of place right now

                                    Its all in your mind
                                    thats the truest answer of them all... you can thank Nixon for removing the gold standard, i believe was in 1971... now the value of the dollar is all psychological

                                    the dollar is respected for a couple reasons..

                                    1) america being viewed as the strongest country , politically and militarily
                                    2) america is the worlds manufacturer of goods

                                    OH WAIT>>>>>> neither of those reasons exist anymore


                                    only reason the dollar hasnt collapsed 100% yet is that the world trades oil for dollars (most of it does at least, except Iran and Russia I believe at this time)

                                    should the entire OPEC group start sellling oil for euros you will have to start carrying a bagfull of dollars to the store to pick up roll of toilet paper

                                    all fiat monies are doomed

                                    BUY GOLD

                                          Why should a country back up its currency with the amount of a pretty metal which they manage to keep in a vault somewhere?

                                          Anyway, there is a whole history to this. Read about Bretton Woods and then the collapse of the standard in, I believe, '71. As with most things there are both pro and con reasons for abandoning the standard.

                                            Get it printed in Korea right?

                                            I think i remember hearing the US has the biggest debt in the world. Funny how Bush just got an other 100 billion...

                                            How much did you say? And... where does this money come from exactly?

                                            Well the good news is. With a 100 Billion they can at least stay an other 3 months in Iraq & Afghanistan.

                                            Oh well..

                                              And... where does this money come from exactly?
                                              1) The U.S. issues Treasury Bonds
                                              2) The Federal Reserve Buys these bonds from the government
                                              3) The Fed buys them with a book keeping entry (yes, that means out of thin air)
                                              4) the free money is then sent into the American government



                                              and in case you were wondering... the fed reserve is the biggest scandal in american history (more so than monica lewisnky even) completely against the constitution to have a private company in control of the countrys money supply

Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated governments in the civilized world. No longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men.

                                                                                  Not that I don't agree that the situation's been fucked pretty much ever since Wilson's presidency...

                                                                                  but where, exactly, is the Fed "completely against the constitution"?

                                                                                  Coining money and regulating commerce are powers reserved for Congress - but I don't believe there's any stipulation on whether or not they can employ a private company to facilitate the matter.... seems a bit overly specific for the U.S. constitution.

With a gold standard, most people wouldn't be able to buy homes, have credit cards, take out business loans. Seriously guys, read some basic books on our economy (and the economy of every country).

                                                                                          No country currently has the gold standard.

                                                                                          So wherever you live, it's the same way. It's not just the U.S.. It's all fiat currency now.

                                                                                            what i love is the fact that the bank responsible for printing all the money (Federal Reserve Bank) in the US is actually a privately owned bank (mostly by Europeans), and they get paid back by taxpayers (eventually). It's a beautiful system.

                                                                                            Fair play to them thats what i say. No one seems to complain.

                                                                                            Here's how the system works:

                                                                                            1>The US Gov says "We need more money printed to keep our economy afloat"
                                                                                            2>The F.R.B. prints more money
                                                                                            3>Taxpayers then owe that money back to the F.R.B.
                                                                                            Repeat until the economy goes bust or the dollar is worth as much as an Italian lira.
                                                                                            Every time this happens it simply adds more debt to the debt ridden economy, but who cares because you have an immediate cash flow surplus.

                                                                                            currently US borrow 1.9 billion dollars a day to pay interest on it's debts.

                                                                                            Until recently China was the biggest lender to the US, but they have decided to stop lending money.

                                                                                            What does this lead to? Printing more money, and more debt incurred to foreign lenders. Rising interest rates, and foreclosures on many properties, and great opportunities for the wealthy to add considerable real estate portfolio assets for pennies on the dollar.

                                                                                            Sounds good to me.
