If we counterfeited our enemies money during WWII, why did we do it? To help them? No, to hurt their economy. So why would the fed do basically the same thing to us? Inject more currency into our economy and expect anything other than what we know will happen? Sure, it's not counterfeit per se, but being counterfeit is not the main problem (although that doesn't help either) the main problem is that it puts more money into circulation, thereby making it worth less because there is more of it.

 

Supply and demand. If there is a glut of a product, the value goes down so also does the price, unless somebody starts playing games. Prices never seem to go down, always up even if things are working right. That suggests other fuckery afoot.

Fiat money is a type of government-issued currency that is not backed by a precious metal, such as gold or silver, nor by any other tangible asset or commodity. Fiat currency is typically designated by the issuing government to be legal tender, and is authorized by government regulation. Since the end of the Bretton Woods system in 1975, the major currencies in the world are fiat money.

fiat money, in a broad sense, all kinds of money that are made legal tender by a government decree or fiat. The term is, however, usually reserved for legal-tender paper money or coins that have face values far exceeding their commodity values and are not redeemable in gold or silver.

Yet it has no intrinsic value. When something is printed out of thin air, it's value isโ€ฆ.thin air.

 

What makes silver and gold better is that there is a limited supply, you can't just print more like crazy governments want to do. The ancients did perfectly well with plain old gold and silver. They built some of the most magnificent things on this planet. Today, everything is clusterfucked to death.

Do you work for the fed or what?

 

Three main things make the best currency.

a. Readily acceptable by most people.

b. Hard to counterfeit.

c. Limited supply.

 

When I was a kid, I could buy 20 candy bars with a dollar. Current value of an oz of silver right now is right at about $32. That means I could buy 6.4 of the same candy bars today. That tells me that a dollar just ain't what it used to be. The current price of silver is probably being manipulated against the dollar. They are trying to hide the inflation they created.

Fiat money is monopoly money. Nothing more. What happens if or when the issuing country gets rekt? All that paper is worthless. Look at confederate paper money. Look at the continental dollar. What do the issuing banks do when the shit hits the fan? They bail and people are left with worthless paper. Learn some history.
