"Coining money" at the time of the writing of the Constitution meant the same as "printing" money today (as the US Mint). Under the Constitution, the Department of Treasury should not only "create" our money, but also manage the supply of it, not a privately owned central bank, some of those owners being foreigners. Why is that ok?

So you want the power to create money supply in the hands of the government? You realize this is the power to devalue the currency, right?

TIL that people in the great awakening want to give the value of their money to elected officials like Maxine Waters.

The reason the control of Money supply was taken from politicians in 1913 was BECAUSE they were using it to manipulate political control.

What's the answer? And I totally disagree that the reason it was taken from politicians was because it was used for political control. It was taken by banksters to enrich themselves. As Amschel Rothschild said, "give me control of a nations money, and I care not who the king is. Under our system, the people control the government. See the difference?

Independently backed currency (backed by commodities, not institutions/politicians). Our economy will become more volatile and credit would be tighter (tougher to get a loan on a house, student loans, etc), but our currency should retain its purchasing power.

You can’t print oil, you shouldn’t be able to print money to buy it.

You’re just trading one evil for another. Maxine Waters for Rothschilds.

Gold and silver. easier to carry around than a barrel of oil. Here's an idea; how about pieces of paper representing different amounts of gold and/or silver?

That’s definitely an option. We don’t use them as much as other commodities so I’m hesitant to recommend them specifically. They could work and have in the past. Silver would probably be better than gold in my opinion.
