|Wilkes County tax digest, 1791
|Tax digest for Wilkes County from 1791.
State taxes in Georgia were collected at the militia district level, with a tax collector elected for each district within a county. In addition to land, taxes in early years were levied on imported merchandise, slaves, free persons of color, white males over 21 (poll tax), professionals, money lent at interest, and value of household goods and personal property.
Early tax digests can include the bame of person making the tax return, the number of slaves owned, the number of acres of land owned by quality and location, the adjoining landowners, the original grantee, the value of town lots owned, the value of stock in trade, the number of polls, the identification of free blacks and their guardians (when required), the tax on professionals, the aggregate value of real estate, personal estate, and money at loan, or the names of tax defaulters.

15 Hollywood Gal Pals We Love
Celebs need best friends, too! Here are some of our favorite dynamic duos and how they came to call each other besties.
By Shannon Rosenberg
Jen Aniston and Courtney Cox
Jen and Courtney are more than friends, they are true BFFs. Throughout marriages, divorces, and countless acting gigs, these two have stayed close since the day they first met at the Friends auditions in 1994. Courtney even went so far as to make Jen the godmother of her only daughter, Coco.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
Tollgate Bungalows are a collection of properties situated within a small gated community just 50 metres from the beach. The setting of the bungalows is idyllic, with the estuary to the rear of the site. They are located just off the seafront in the picturesque village of Seaview.
The village centre is just a two minute walk away; here you will find a handful of shops and pubs to enjoy. Seaview is aptly named as it has far reaching and ever changing views of the Solent –the strait separating the Isle of Wight from mainland England. Seaview is one of the most prestigious areas in the Isle of Wight and is particularly popular with the sailing community. Families also flock to the village to enjoy the beautiful beaches such as, Seagrove Bay and Priory Bay. Well worth a day out and only a few minutes' walk from Tollgate Bungalows is Seaview Wildlife Encounter, where you can meet rare animals and birds.
Please note: this property will only accept a 7+ night booking over Christmas.
Open plan living/dining.
Features large window overlooking the front decked area.
Dining area features table with six chairs.
Contemporary fitted kitchen with oven/grill, washing machine and fridge/freezer.
Complete with a range of appliances including a kettle, toaster, iron and ironing board.
Bedroom one with en-suite
Situated on the first floor, accessed via an open plan staircase from the living area.
Furnished with a double bed.
Bedroom two
Situated on the ground floor.
Furnished with a double bed.
Bedroom three

Bedroom one has an en-suite.
The main family bathroom is situated on the ground floor and consists of w.c, shower cubicle and wash basin.
Front and rear decked area.
Allocated parking for two cars.
Only metres from the beach.
Short walk to amenities.
Tollgate Bungalows benefit from a great location, as well as being only minutes away from the village centre of Seaview, the popular town of Ryde is only three miles away. Ryde is the largest town on the island and boasts miles of golden sandy beaches and an abundance of shops, restaurants, bars and attractions. If visiting towards the end of summer, be sure to catch the Carnival. The town holds the oldest Carnival in the UK, when floats from all over the island come together to create the biggest, brightest spectacle of the year.
On the journey back from Ryde towards Seaview be sure to stop at a place called Pluckpool Park. This was once a Victorian Fortification Battery used to guard the Solent; nowadays it's the perfect place to enjoy the fantastic sea views. There is also a children's play park, tennis courts, mini golf and beautiful gardens.
There is so much to do in the area, that after a busy day you will be pleased to come back to Tollgate Bungalows and relax in comfort. If you don't feel like cooking the Boat House Pub and Restaurant is only metres away, serving fresh local produce.

Excellence: We hire stellar people and give them the tools to excel.
Accountability: We make every individual responsible for a clear set of outcomes. This allows us to reward excellence.

Loyalty: We let our high performing employees at every level excel and do whatever is necessary to encourage their career growth.

I enjoy the collegiality, the universal good humor and serious smarts of our co-workers, the atmosphere of trust in relations with my supervisor-types, and the dress code (or lack thereof). Ultimately, I like that we are expected to do well, then trusted to do so.
I feel for the first time in my career that we are all on the same page and really working for the greater good of the company by doing our respective jobs the best we know how. I also like the stringent testing process because it means that we can be confident in the abilities of the people around us.

Eli was founded in 1991 in a fraternity house in New Haven, Connecticut. No frills from day one: the conference room in the Durham headquarters still looks like it came from a fraternity house - our founder's beat up old desk is still there. Eli started with the big, hairy, audacious goal that we could outdo competition at the home care newsletter game. Our first product, Home Care Week, still exists today, 19 years later.

From Robber Barons to engineers, these are the stories of the men who shaped one of the greatest accomplishments of the industrial age.
Railroads built America into a coast to coast power. They provided the lifeline for the nation's expansion. And they also made fortunes for, and legends of, countless men.
The rise of the American railroads is one of the great stories of innovation and industry in the history of the world. And at the center of the saga are men of vision and passion, innovators and inventors, businessmen and blowhards whose personalities helped shape one of the greatest accomplishments of the industrial age.
GREAT RAILROAD VISIONARIES tells the tales of these storied individuals, from the dream of Henry Flagler, who helped transform Florida into a vacation destination, to James J. Hill, who brought the rails to the American Northwest. Filled with period accounts, rare footage and interviews with railroad historians and experts like Bill Withuhn of the Smithsonian Institution, this is a fascinating introduction to the characters and personalities who shaped America's first and most important transportation empire.

Boys' jeans in his favorite styles
When shopping for your little man's clothes, start with the essentials like denim jeans. No matter what their taste, boys' and girls' jeans will always be in style. Choose from a variety of denim washes to match his personal style and the tops he has in his closet. Jeans are durable and hold up to the everyday wear and tear of his playtime antics.
Every pair of jeans is different, whether it's the fit, wash or just the way they're worn in, they will all fit his body differently. Kmart has the perfect jeans, they look great with a wide range of tops. When you give him an array of jeans options, he can mix and match his outfits depending on his mood and the occasion. Jeans aren't meant for dress up, but with the right pair of boys' shoes they can make a great dress-casual outfit.
For warm-weather denim options, go for shorts. All he has to do is put on a pair of jean shorts, grab his beach towels and head out to the pool with friends for some summer fun. Shop the hottest styles in boys' denim for his closet at Kmart.

We use the latest fiber laser technology to engrave our tags. Many pet tag manufacturers use lower power CO2 laser engravers that do not actually engrave the metal but rather mark or laser bond on the metal. This type of laser marking does leave a clean dark mark but will eventually be illegible as the metal from the tag wears down. We at dogIDs use a high power fiber laser to engrave our tags which actually vaporizes and removes the metal so it is actually engraving instead of marking or laser bonding. This allows us to engrave deeply into the metal with pristine detail and a nice contrasting engrave color...Excellent looks with a true engrave that will NEVER wear off of your dog's tag. Engraving guaranteed for life...PERIOD!Learn more about our free engraving
At dogIDs, our mission is to support and improve the health and safety of furry friends across the world, and give them the unconditional love that they provide us on a daily basis. Each day, we focus on providing high quality, personalized dog products and helpful blog posts to help you and your pet.Learn More

Cleveland Browns Pet ID Tag
What would any Cleveland Browns fan want for their pet? A bone-shaped, officially licensed Cleveland Browns Pet ID Tag, of course. This aluminum tag for dogs is brown with burnt orange and white accent stripes with the familiar Dog image logo. This NFL pet ID tag will show your team spirit if you are a regular in the Dawg Pound at First Energy Field or just walking your dog around your neighborhood or local park. In addition to the team logo on the front, dogIDs will laser engrave up to 4 lines of contact information on the back of the tag, which is plenty of room to engrave the needed information to get your pet home safely. As we all know, even well-trained pets can wander off and you can rest assured that should your pet become lost, their tag can help with his or her safe return home.
Size & Fetaures
The Cleveland Browns football dog tag is a one size fits all pet ID tag that will serve to remind you of the great teams and traditions of the past. With greats like Coach Paul Brown and outstanding players like Jim Brown and Bernie Kosar, your tag will identify you as a loyal Cleveland Browns fan among pet owners. With 4 NFL Championships in the past and keeping true to the long tradition of helmets without logos, your pet can wear their tag as a daily tribute to this great football club. We include a dog tag silencer made of silicone, which protects the tags and helps keep them quiet in the house. The tag silencer also glows in the dark, so you will easily be able to spot your dog at dusk, dawn or at night. At dogIDs, we laser engrave each tag and guarantee the engraving for the life of your pet. If the engraving wears off for any reason at all, we will replace the tag with no additional cost to you.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

This seems to be catching on. Some towns use money called 'hours' where each is worth 10 dollars. It keeps spending within one's community. Is this a legitimate solution to the inflationary fed notes?
This seems to be catching on. Some towns use money called 'hours' where each is worth 10 dollars. It keeps spending within one's community. Is this a legitimate solution to the inflationary fed notes?
Typically, local currencies, like Berkshares, Ithaca Hours, etc., and those based on a "LETS" system fix the price of an "hour" (of labor) arbitrarily at $10, as if that was an universal price for labor, which is a fatal flaw for a number of reasons. All have varying levels of acceptance and success. Not all merchants honor them, and those that do usually only honor them as partial payment for goods and services. You can't just go into a store and pay with nothing but the local currency in most cases. Their continued exchange values are based on promises and trust, with no way of tracking, backing or maintaining that exchange value in any meaningful way that assures that people the fundamentals are sound enough for people to continue to want to honor them.
I am extremely encouraged by the rise of local/parallel/alternate currencies, however, for a number of reasons. For one, it gets people used to the fact that they are legal, legitimate, and can even exist. They also get across the idea that their currencies are "complimentary" alternative currencies, and avoid the problems associated with being perceived as "competition" to the fiat currency monopoly of the Fed system.
Secondly, their existence is generally supported by people across a broad political spectrum (everyone generally likes and supports the idea of "local" control). That's very important. Thirdly, and very important, their recent rise has set precedences on state and federal levels that give more sophisticated local currencies a foot in the door.
One of the worst things that can happen to a currency, I think, is that it gets thought of as a "Tea Party" solution for libertarian or survivalist nutjobs only. Lose local political support and acceptance, and you might as well not even try, IMO.
Privately issued scrip was ubiquitous in the wake of the Great Depression. That was a deflationary depression, but what most people don't realize is that currency shortages are also an extreme risk, and comes in waves, in a hyperinflationary environment. The fact that you might need much more of the inflated currency to buy the same goods and services doesn't automatically mean that you have more, or that inflated currency is coming to everyone in steadily truckloads (even electronically, nobody's pushing any buttons to make your account grow nominally). It only means that people no longer trust the exchange value stability of the currency, and that those goods and services are no longer priced in response to a typical demand curve--they won't be sold for any less, whether there are any buyers or not.
The one thing local currencies currently lack is any tangible backing that would enable them to be considered a stable store of value. But that is not to say that it is not possible within the realm of what is already established as a matter of precedence. I have been working for some time on a novel design for a special kind of local currency that is 100% backed, as bailment holdings only, of locally vaulted and protected hard commodities (not just gold and silver). I intend to implement that currency as part of a not-for-profit service in New Hampshire communities (starting with one), as part of the Free State Project there. There are a lot of legal issues involved, but none that are insurmountable, and the system I am working on now would most definitely be a legitimate solution to inflationary Fed notes.
If you REALLY want to implement longstanding competing currency - find a local smelter/refiner and begin a project with them to smelt 3 primary metals:
In various denominations - listed by WEIGHT.
"Like an army falling, one by one by one" - Linkin Park
I'm using the following, that I consider the Big Seven:
Each denominated in GRAINS, common units of MASS that are integer convenient to convert from market prices in any other currency (480 grains to a Troy ounce for precious metals, 7000 grains per avoirdupois pound for base metals)
Furthermore, since we live in a tech age - one other business platform that is viable and important: honest holding companies who integrate themselves with various banks and credit card companies.
This way, metal need not be carried around but held in deposit accounts and ownership moved around digitally. No different (COSMETICALLY) then the way the market works now - but simply with a more stable (and HONEST) underpinning.
Of course this also leads (can) to the sequestration of accounts into both savings and deposit accounts. This would allow for interest rates to be locally driven based on the supply of savings that commercial banks and credit unions can attract into their coffers.
This, of course, challenges the entire world order. But ahhhh well - so is the plight of the revolutionary thinker.
"Like an army falling, one by one by one" - Linkin Park
Fiat currencies could be treated as vehicles only (like a Paypal account that remains empty, but transfers instantly from some other source as needed), with holdings that are the only store of value. Aside from the bank cards, holdings could as easily transferable as Bitcoins (and using similar technology, sans the 'data mining' functions). All with no usury, no demand deposits, no credit, no interest paid out or accepted. A "run" on such a facility would be as much of a concern as a "run" on valet parking, or a coat-check closet at a club.
It was always the mixing and creative blending of mints, banking and finance that has always gotten currencies into deep trouble. Originators (mints, which are not even the original source of the wealth they coin), have vaults and become bailees. Then lenders double as bailees, and circulate their fiduciary media, to the point where promises to pay are deemed every bit as good as payment itself, because the net effect is the same--for a time. So we accept bank notes as the equivalent of hard specie, and that becomes complicated by FRB, demand deposits, fiduciary media and other derivatives, and a whole clusterfuck rat's nest of contradictory counter-party claims, and a lot of unnecessary and complex obfuscation. Unnecessary to the currency holders, that is.
Holding titles originating from a private, independent, community run NON-bank, NON-financial institution, with zero ties to credit, promises, or usury of any kind, would be in a currency class all by itself.
I want a hard-asset backed local currency, with the motto CAVERE FAENERATIO ("avoid usury"), the original source of which is not EVER a bank or financial institution, and which takes no part in fiduciary media of any kind. As Amish in its core foundational principles as it is high tech in its implementation. No glass wall, no assurances, no trust, no MF Global-style promises that bailments won't ever be treated as deposits. None of that is even required, and only because there are no deposits to begin with--only holdings, and only as bailments of private property, not subject (even for an instant) to artificial inflation by any mechanism, contradictory counter-party claims, or promises of any kind.
Disney was once told by a theater-owning friend, "Your problem is that distribution companies don't know what sells until the public tells them what they want." Disney's ultimate response: Buena Vista Distribution. From that standpoint, a currency that is already valued as current money would be treated as a special kind of finished good by banks, but only AFTER the banks observed (as Congress did prior to 1792) what the public actually valued -- an asset that it did not create, cannot counterfeit, and has absolutely no control over whatsoever, beyond whatever notes happen to be its own particular holding titles.
As such, banks could borrow that currency from users, and lend it out at interest. They could even fractionally reserve lend it -- but with its own notes only, not the title notes created by the original core system. Meanwhile, the nominal value of each holding steadily increases relative to the fiat currency. But it's not a fake "peg". It's reflects a real nominal value loss of the currency relative to the underlying assets of each holding. So the local currency itself couldn't be loaned out as a derivative without an equal promise that the derivative will keep pace with the increasing nominal value of the local currency. No bank can fractionally reserve that; it would be a losing proposition for them.
But that does not mean that banks could not profit from a 100% backed lending of holdings. Whatever they are loaning out, however, would have to be the actual tangible holding titles themselves--which are based on percent of metal ownership, not some pegged nominal fiat value. To loan it out, they would have to transfer actual title. Those holding titles would increase in nominal fiat currency value over time, and that increase could then be paid back to the bank in fiat notes as interest.
To make an legal distinction, it is very important to refer to them as "holdings", and avoid the use of the terms "deposit" and "account", which have definitions tied to lending institutions. As to all the rest, you're exactly right. The metal need not be carried around, and in fact COULD BE LEAD OR MERCURY (or even salt!). It weighs the same on paper and electronically, and so long as there is a real market for it, and the underlying assets are really there, there is no reason why it cannot serve as an underpinning for currency.This way, metal need not be carried around but held in deposit accounts and ownership moved around digitally. No different (COSMETICALLY) then the way the market works now - but simply with a more stable (and HONEST) underpinning.
And the currency itself requires no special printing presses. You print your own currency in any denomination desired.
Verified and authorized at point of sale like any other card.
With what I'm designing, that will be someone else's concern, independently and absolutely separate from the currency itself. The de facto sequestration occurs naturally because there is no credit/lending/usury arm to the institution to begin with...and never will exist within that institution.Of course this also leads (can) to the sequestration of accounts into both savings and deposit accounts. This would allow for interest rates to be locally driven based on the supply of savings that commercial banks and credit unions can attract into their coffers.

How would you trade with metals? Say I went to a store with an ounce of silver. The previous day, the closing value was 33 dollars. So, I buy 33 dollars worth of goods. The next day, it goes down to 30 dollars/ounce. Would the merchant lose money from my purchase?

Something like Ithaca Hours isn't. Something like Shire Silver partly is. We need multiple currencies that make it big. So something like Shire Silver needs to make it big. Something like donttreadonmeme needs to make it big. And so on.

Under the system I am working on now, you could own and trade with silver holdings only (or holdings for any other metal) at any divisible amount, as reckoned in fed dollars. That would be straight forward, and wouldn't have to be an ounce or a coin of any specific denomination. The merchant could still price everything in USD, and you would pay in exact equivalent USD using silver holdings (at fair market value for that day).
Another option, however, is a COMMODITY POOL, with diversified holdings that are far more stable in value (the more commodities there are, the more price stable the pool holdings).
Let's say you have 1 Troy ounce of silver, and want to add your silver into the local commodity pool.
Here's what an hypothetical pool looks like on the day you add your commodity:
Mkt Price
Value Dist. % Gold
1715.20 $ 3.57 50.00 oz. 24000.00 gr $ 85,760 60.61% Silver
33.66 $ 0.07 500.00 oz. 240000.00 gr $ 16,830 11.89% Palladium
663.00 $ 1.38 30.00 oz. 14400.00 gr $ 19,890 14.06% Platinum
1607.00 $ 3.35 10.00 oz. 4800.00 gr $ 16,070 11.36% Aluminum
0.92 $ 0.0001319 2000.00 lbs. 14000000.00 gr $ 1,847 1.31% Copper
7.20 $ 0.0010286 100.00 lbs. 700000.00 gr $ 720 0.51% Nickel
7.67 $ 0.0010957 50.00 lbs. 350000.00 gr $ 384 0.27% TOTAL POOL:
$ 141,501 100.00%
That's the total pool. Holdings in that pool (for everyone) are based on their locked in percentage of ownership of the total value. That is physically allocated according to the value distribution of each commodity (far right column, total mass times the price of each).
Your silver is priced at USD $33.66 when you add it into the pool. Everyone in the pool agrees to trade the fair market value of your silver for the fair market value of a proportionate percentage of the entire pool. In other words, your one ounce of silver is buying into a lot of different metals, even as a lot of different metals are buying into your one ounce.
This zero-sum game exchange for everyone means that you no longer have one ounce of silver. You end up with the following:
Value Dist. Grains
oz./lbs Gold
₴ 20.40 5.7 gr 0.01 oz. Silver
₴ 4.01 57.2 gr 0.12 oz. Palladium ₴ 4.73 3.4 gr 0.01 oz. Platinum ₴ 3.82 1.1 gr 0.00 oz. Aluminum ₴ 0.44 3329.5 gr 0.48 lbs. Copper ₴ 0.17 166.5 gr 0.02 lbs. Nickel ₴ 0.09 83.2 gr 0.01 lbs. ₴ 33.66 TOTAL SHARE:
You now own holdings in gold, silver, palladium, platinum, aluminum, copper and nickel. Your share is now locked in (as a percentage of total pool value), and you are immediately diversified, as are all other holders.
(NOTE: I use the ₴ sign to distinguish holdings from their USD equivalent. It's called the hryvnia sign, and is used by the Ukraine for its currency. All computers have it, and Excel recognizes it as a currency symbol. I like it because it's basically a backwards S with an equal sign running through it)
Now let's say that the price of silver falls to $30 the very next day, as you said. The value of your diversified holding would change to $33.22, not $30. On the upside it works the same way. Let's say that the price of silver (and only silver) changes, this time with an upward swing to $36. The market value of your holdings would only increase to $33.94.
So if you want to speculate, and put your trust in the one metal's performance over all others, stick with a single metal holding. If you want your holding to be more value stable through diversification, insulated and buffered from highs and the lows, you would participate in the pool.
Also note: one thing you cannot do is selectively pull out of a pool (i.e., you can't buy in with silver and extract gold). It's not a gaming and speculation tool, and you would not have the right or the power to "undiversify" everyone else in the pool. It's nothing more than a diversified store of value.
There's a lot more to it, of course, but that's partly it in a nutshell.
EDIT: One more thing. Let's say that you trade with a merchant using a SILVER ONLY holding. The merchant has the option of IMMEDIATELY converting that to a pooled commodity holding, to stabilize its value. But it's a one-way street. You can't convert from a pool to a single metal unless you have someone willing to trade their single metal holding for a pooled holding. That would be a separate exchange, external to the system.

With the advance in technology, Bitcoins will eventually become an easier way to trade.
There are several competing technologies for just every day transactions using your cell phone. Bitcoin is the only one that is a medium of exchange and a currency.
I fully plan on dropping my bank (or just use it to transfer $ to BTC) once the Bitcoin debit card comes out. It will make it so that I can keep my wealth in the Bitcoin currency and still pay for every day things in the local currency.

While Bitcoins addresses a number of important needs, it is not a panacea. The existence of Microsoft and Apple did not preclude alternative products and applications, or even "sandbox" products that fill niches, like Java, Flash, etc.,. In that regard, the "store of value" aspect of Bitcoins remains a valid question. My focus has always been how to tap into key parts of the Bitcoin concept, and adapt that to a commodity backed local currency in a way that it makes the currency debasement-proof, to every possible degree and extent that it can be on that level.
The current plan involves the use of modified Bitcoin technology (and all equally open source) in the context of a purely local, commodity-backed currency. On a local level there would be central management, but it would be scripted administration, never real control. And "LOCAL" is the only place where any kind of "centralization" (always independent cells of small scale) makes any sense to me at all anyway. The technology would be modified to fit the application, so, for example, since the scarcity component would arise on the basis of real tangible, physical, locally vaulted commodities, there would be no 'data mining' function to it. Your GPU cannot produce currency in this case. But it would be just a rigid in terms of physical allocation (down to every atom accounted for) with no "currency" issued on the basis of promises--past, present or future, and no contradictory or counter-party claims of any kind involved.

I agree ^^^.
Bitcoin is revolutionary in it's utility vs tyranny - as money, it is not tenable longerterm. It is currency. There will be numerous types of Bitcoin currency within 10 years.
There is only ONE gold, for example.
I'm not slamming Bitcoin at all - I like it very much.

I remember back in '79 gold went up to like 900 dollars an ounce, but the bubble burst and the price went back down. Can that happen again with the current market?
I was reading that Germany had a strong currency in Hitler's reign. It wasn't backed by gold, but by the people. How did that work?

I would say highly unlikely, but of course it could. A lot of people think precious metals are in a bubble, with a lot of different rationale as to why they believe that. Just not many here, as this place is chock full of metalbugs (yours truly included).I remember back in '79 gold went up to like 900 dollars an ounce, but the bubble burst and the price went back down. Can that happen again with the current market?
If you look at the long term, however, all the short turn ups and downs average out into an exponential curve that becomes undeniable and self evident. It has less to do with the exchange value of the PM as it does the loss of exchange value of the exponentially inflated fiat currency it's priced in. So if you're talking long term, not a chance. Not unless you're betting that the fiat currency supply is going to be choked. If that was ever the case, the price of gold would go down--for anyone with two dimes to rub together (read=hardly anyone)--in the midst of a massive deflationary depression where the entire Ponzi economy is catastrophically full of defaults and wrecked for a time.
By following a Keynesian policy (which Keynes himself viewed with favor at the time), by tying the fiat currency to promises that increased the national debt. Hitler appointed a man named Hjalmar Schacht to be the Reichsbank President in 1933, and together they created Germany's then-version of a deficit spending Ponzi scheme economy, with Germany's new Bills of Exchange. Unlike Fed dollars, that earn nothing, Germany's Bills of Credit circulated like Treasury bills circulating as currency. They were like Lincoln's greenbacks, in that they were a fiat currency printed out of thin air, but instead of promises to later pay in gold, Germany's bills promised to pay 4% interest (in that fiat currency, of course).I was reading that Germany had a strong currency in Hitler's reign. It wasn't backed by gold, but by the people. How did that work?
What many defenders of this scheme fail to acknowledge (or realize) is that any Ponzi economy, as this one was, can start out with a strong boom, with everyone believing in its magical powers to "create" wealth out of thin air and belief. But then the realities of its fundamentals kick in, and it ultimately ends in a bust. For Germany, there was a bust that covered that inevitable bust in the form of Germany's defeat in WWII.

We simply need SEVERAL competing currencies. Some digital or paper against holdings others just solid precious metals. We can have quite a variety and let the "market" decide which ones will be successful. Personally I think we need to get back to currency being cumbersome for quite some time until any of us are going to trust a "system" we can't see, touch or feel run by strangers far away. I think credit lines with stores, merchants, utilities etc are fine and can take care of most of our transactional spending but should be paid in hard PM currency.
The most important thing is we let the FED and their fractional reserve banking go off on their own. If anyone wants to deal with them then fine but the rest of us need several options.
We definitely need to make sure every " of currency that goes into the stockmarket is transfered out of US dollars and into a completely backed currency. This crap of creating money out of thin air then multiplying it by 10 crap is for the birds. They play the stockmarket like a slot machine using worthless slugs.
To me letting strangers hold or manage my currency is as logical as letting them hold or manage my children. The essence of the entire thing will just never work out for very long before there are problems. They are simply too easily corrupted and too hard to keep secured.
You hit on two keys there:Personally I think we need to get back to currency being cumbersome for quite some time until any of us are going to trust a "system" we can't see, touch or feel run by strangers far away.
"...we can't see, touch or feel..."
"...run by strangers far away..."
There is something to be said, I think, for a small committed group willing to circle the wagons in defense of one another's property--in addition to their own. That's what I want to put to the test in a way that I don't think has ever been tested before.
If they are involved, then what exactly should the state do, beyond simply having a policy of what currency it uses in its own transactions? Did those states have legal tender laws? If so, that might be more of the cause of their problems than multiple currencies. If the currencies are all commodity-based, and none of them are given a legal monopoly status, then they'll be interchangeable, and people, wherever they live, will choose to use the currencies that are most widely accepted and trustworthy when exchanging them for metals.

If everyone is following the same standard, the flow of trade is supposedly made more efficient, as we all refer to the same predictable UNITS. Fortunately, we have all the standards we need. We didn't ever need EAGLES, DOLLARS and CENTS in the first place, except perhaps as a branding mechanism, to distinguish them from other currencies. Troy ounces and grains (or any other metric) were always sufficient. The problem (for currency debasers only) is that you can't change a Troy ounce (or a gallon or an inch) into something else. Unless your Great Britain and you start with a thing called a POUND STERLING, and it ends up eventually having a meaning that has NOTHING to do with its original.
As for actual standards of weights and measures, we have evolved, and have all that down pat now. There is no problem with transporting and trading gallons of milk across state lines, or even deciding to package and measure them as liters, and going back and forth between the two. A gallon is a gallon, and a liter is a liter, and everyone knows what they are, and it's easy enough to convert between the two.
We're not in Confederate times, and technology has all but eliminated many of the former problems of currency inefficiency. Go to pay with gold and/or silver junk coins to someone who accepts it regularly as payment, and watch what they do. They won't count the coins. They won't bite them, or examine the ridges. They'll pull out an electronic scale, and calculate the PM contents for themselves. And for many you can pay in jewelry and flatware, and once they know that it's genuine (quick acid tests) they'll do the same with that.

We are on the absolute very last leg of using paper or digital currency at all. They are both so easily corrupted/counterfeited a couple teenagers could do it. Current paper reproduction and digital security breaching technology is simply too cheap and easily attainable. You have to remember the Federal Reserve and World Bank crooks have trillions in real estate, corporations, stocks, PM's etc etc etc. These people are global terrorists and crooks beyond anything the innocent sheeple of this country could comprehend.
I mean these people will invade a country, assassinate its leaders and slaughter 600,000 civilians to keep a small middle eastern government using the US Dollar for oil transactions. What chance do you think a paper or digital currency stands against these human holocausts? I have no doubt these people will resort to heinous crimes beyond our comprehension to get back into power.
No thanks.... the paper and digital crap is playing right into their hands. We have to K.I.S.S..... keep it simple stupid. Drag around and hide PM's or such and have monthly types of credit lines for daily and monthly type transactional business. They are simply not going to go digging up backyards and beating open safes but the second you "CENTRALIZE" anything they are on it like a dog on a bone. At this point only a complete fool would centralize any currency competing with the FED bankers. They would "eat your liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti".
It is imperative to TOTALLY decentralize the "payment of goods/services" situation with multiple tangible transactional commodities. If one becomes unstable we simply move to another one. The damage is minimized.

Good point about paper money. However, gold standard can be just as crooked. In earlier times, nations would plunder another's wealth just to get their gold, so they could create more money to expand their empires. England used fractional reserve banking in the 1600's, so they could expand the economy without having to do that.
Ron Paul did make a good point on a talk show one night when gas went up to about $4.00/gallon. He said he could get it down to a dime a gallon. The host asked how, he said: How much is an old silver dime worth? About $4. So there is stability with pm currency. I heard of one company that paid its employees with pm coins. They reported the face value to the IRS, so they didn't show much income to pay taxes on.
If the local merchants all accept it and use it, then it would thrive as a local currency. There is a guy in Berlin working to get several restaurants and stores to accept Bitcoin, he has 4 so far.
