> I. Most contemporary debate on the FRS focuses on whether what people
call

> fallacious assumption in this debate is that the paper currency the FRS
> generates, the Federal Reserve Note (FRN), is, as a matter of fact and a

history

be a
> "dollar'; and could never be an actual "dollar" notwithstanding all the
> statutes or resolutions Congress might enact. Rather, as cited in the
> Constitution and as historically defined in the Coinage Act of 1792 a
> "dollar" is a specific coin containing 371-1/4 grains of fine silver.
Very

as

the

prohibits

of

the

> A commodity money is a medium of exchange the units of which are fixed

designs

world.
> In the case of a commodity money, the actual commodity - silver or gold -
is

in

money is

gold.
> New supplies of commodity money will be coined only to the extent that

investments

on

monetary

circulation

to

silver

fiduciary

market

failed

interests
> license the issuers of fiduciary monies to suspend or repudiate entirely
> their promises to redeem those monies on demand in coin.

> Finally, a fiat money is a medium of exchange composed of some
intrinsically
> valueless substance which the issuer does not promise to redeem in a

no
> real economic cost to its production, the supply of a fiat money can
never be

of

For

in

those

the

their

>
> Second, the theory and history of fiduciary money (which is also largely
the

the

> Third, the danger of fraud in the issuance of fiduciary money becomes

Under

fiduciary

money

of

that

>
> III. Fully to comprehend the significance of the FRS also requires
> recognition that no such thing as "politically neutral" or "politically

> storing wealth and for exchanging wealth. Thus, money is both itself a
form

other

to

of
> private contract. A free-market economy will have one kind of money; a
> "mixed" or "fascist" economy, another kind of money; a "socialist"
economy,

>

>
> Thus once again, the contemporary debate over whether and to what degree
the
> FRS should be "politically independent" of Congress and the United States
> Treasury is badly misdirected. Originally, the Constitution made
Americans'

the

and
> gold coin to operate as "legal tender" in the payment of debts. But the

far

> money: namely, a commodity money of historically proven intrinsic value,
the
> supply of which the political authorities could not manipulate at will.
>
> Creation of the FRS in 1913 did not render FRNs "politically independent"
or
