The hearing, entitled “Road Map to Sound Money: A Legislative Hearing on H.R. 1098 and Restoring the Dollar,” was held on Tuesday, September 13, at 2:00 p.m. in Room 2128 of the Rayburn House Office Building.
Witnesses:
Dr. Lawrence M. Parks, Executive Director, Foundation for the Advancement of Monetary Education
Dr. Lawrence H. White, Professor of Economics, George Mason University
H.R. 1098, the Free Competition in Currency Act of 2011, would allow competitive free market forces to provide sound money through choice in currency. The bill repeals federal legal tender laws, repeals restrictions on private mints, and repeals taxes on gold and silver which prevent them from circulating as forms of payment. The hearing will discuss the need for and efficacy of sound money, the means by which sound money can be achieved through measures such as H.R. 1098, and the constitutional role of government in money.
“For too long the Federal Reserve has exercised a monopoly on currency issuance,” Chairman Paul stated. “The result, predictably, has been an increasingly devalued dollar. We have been experimenting with a pure fiat currency system nationally and internationally for 40 years, and it has been proven unsound and unsustainable. Our fiat system helped create the massive debt crisis we find ourselves in, and has eroded the purchasing power of every American. The American people deserve to have a choice of currencies to protect themselves and their families from the poor decisions of government. Serious monetary reform is needed, and this hearing is the first step towards addressing this crucial issue. I am pleased that the subcommittee will be examining ways to return to sound money,” Paul continued.

Know the TRUTH about the Government Health Care Bill H.R.3200 - Key Points
Everything in this bill is EVIL to the core. That is why they wouldn't let anybody see what was in it before it was passed. This can NOT stand. This IS NOT THE LAW because it flies in the face of the US Constitution. This so called law is NULL and VOID on the face of it.

When the government tries to enforce this it will cause a civil war in America.
