  • Potential COMEX Gold Fail  [View article]
    kohalakid, Exactly. Perhaps you should study your Constitution a little more.

    Article 1 Section 8 Clause 5: "To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures;"

    Article 1 Section 10 Clause 1: "No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts; pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts, or grant any Title of Nobility."

    I explain and outline the arguments here:
