Is this a contradiction? It certainly seems confusing.

The Supreme Law of the Land, U.S. Constitution Article I Section 10 Clause 1 reads, "No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Mrque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and Silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts..."

31 U.S.Code 5103 Legal Tender reads United States coins and currency (including Federal reserve notes and circulating notes of Federal reserve banks and national banks) are legal tender for all debts, public charges, taxes, and dues. Foreign gold or silver coins are not legal tender for debts.

 

Is this not contradictory to the Constitution?  Even the U.S. Department of Treasury, Resource Center's FAQs reads; Federal Reserve notes are not redeemable in gold, silver or any other commodity and receive no backing by anything This has been the case since 1933. 

 

 

Peace,I will

It is time for us to seriously study as much as can be found about money!

Potomac (Currency)
The Potomac is a local currency that circulates in the National Capital region of the United States. It was introduced informally in early 2009 at a series of community swap meets called Potomac Potlatches and launched May 3, 2009[1] by EcolocityDC at the Forum on Faith, Economy & Ecology organized by the Maryknoll Office for Global Concerns.

The Potomacs program seeks to foster collaboration among producers, retail businesses, non-profit organizations, service providers and consumers. It is an attempt to strengthen the local economy. The program also seeks to increase public awareness of the importance of local economies and to foster optimism for the prospect of gaining local economic self-sufficiency.

The project seeks to assure that a high percentage of each dollar spent will remain circulating in the community. This increase in community capital creates a positive environment for new entrepreneurial ventures. It is hoped that new businesses sprouting from the resulting local generation of wealth will replace imported goods with locally produced items, which are more environmentally sustainable in that they do not need to be shipped over vast distances by the use of fossil fuels.

"Good Information"

B.

I was sitting in on one of those discussions which caused me to just sit and remain quiet, however the discussion regarding "In God We Trust" led me to look into the history of the phrase on the bills of the United States.

It was interesting to learn that President Theodore Roosevelt took issue with using the motto on coinage which he considered to be a sacrilege using God's name on money.[34] 

money (n.) mid-13c., "coinage, metal currency," from Old French monoie "money, coin, currency; change" (Modern French monnaie), from Latin moneta "place for coining money, mint; coined money, money, coinage," from Moneta, a title or surname of the Roman goddess Juno, in or near whose temple money was coined; perhaps from monere "advise, warn" (see monitor (n.)), with the sense of "admonishing goddess," which is sensible, but the etymology is difficult. Extended early 19c. to include paper money.

The word "money" is believed to originate from a temple of Juno, on Capitoline, one of Rome's seven hills. In the ancient world Juno was often associated with money. The temple of Juno Moneta at Rome was the place where the mint of Ancient Rome was located.[10] The name "Juno" may derive from the Etruscan goddess Uni (which means "the one", "unique", "unit", "union", "united") and "Moneta" either from the Latin word "monere" (remind, warn, or instruct) or the Greek word "moneres" (alone, unique).

In the Western world, a prevalent term for coin-money has been specie, stemming from Latin in specie, meaning 'in kind'.[11]
