Humor: Prepared Police Fail

Largest Private Refinery Discovers Gold-Plated Tungsten Bar It's sad and funny that the US mint has had to suspend the minting of gold bullion coins several times over the past few years because they ran out of gold. "Officially" the US is the largest holder of gold in the world. They are doing a good job of guarding all that tungsten down in Fort Knox.

Quote of the Day:

A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. ~Albert Einstein

Know you are not alone on this planet. There are many like you but not exactly like you. Keep your heart warm with love and silliness. The firery glow you carry won't let the cold darkness get near you. The more you spread the light, the more light there will be in the hearts of others. Start at home and shine outward.

By any means necessary

The balance of power seems to sway back and forth through history. The poor persecuted people of the past now have their turn at the helm. Just as they felt in the past they now make the rest of the world feel. Life is like school, we need to learn the lessons of the past in order to have a happy and balanced future. The old saying that “power corrupts and absolutely power corrupts absolutely” is true. The important lesson to take from this is that we need to treat our neighbors as ourselves. Our neighbors really are ourselves just as this whole planet is one living thing. The more we pollute the air, water, and soil the more polluted we become. It’s good to give everyone a chance to see the view from the top. But anyone who hasn’t learned from the past cannot hold that position. You cannot maintain your position on top by kicking and shoving your way up a mound of people. The suppressed people will come to despise you as you had once despised your tyrants. Telling lies only works to hold onto the power in the short term. Once the lie is exposed the people will hate the liars even more~

The Virtues of War (By Major General Smedley Butler)

More good stuff off the net. I am in complete support of local and regional currencies that would directly compete with the unconstitutional Federal Reserve Bank.

Local merchants reject the house of cards built on the US dollar

Deep in the Missouri Ozarks, a new community currency has appeared to meet the needs of the people. Joshua Deatherage, a local contractor who wears a half-dozen hats to feed his family of four children in Cabool, Missouri, is responsible for creating the new silver based Community Dollar. And it's neither a Jed and Boys nor a Liberty Dollar venture.



As Deatherage explains, "I started thinking about a local silver currency the day after the Liberty Dollar was raided by the FBI." He was concerned that the first value based currency might not survive so his new Community Dollar is only intended to circulate in central Missouri.

After three-and-a-half years, the young monetary entrepreneur who wanted to encourage local trade and commerce in his community, reports that over 60 merchants around Cabool and Mountain Grove are now using his Silver Community Dollar.

Recently, when Deatherage stopped by the local tire shop for repairs, the owner told him that he had received $100 in Community Dollars towards a set of tires from the local bar owner. That man told him he usually went out of town to Wal-Mart, but decided to spend his local currency closer to home. The tire shop owner then used the $100 at a Cabool clothing store that he sheepishly confessed he had never visited before. This is how a local community currency grows in small town America - one transaction at a time.

So who uses the $80,000 in Community Dollars that now circulate around the central Ozark area? "Just regular folks." Deatherage says, "People use the money for a wide variety of goods and services. Around here, you can get clothing and food. And the bar and restaurants accept it, too. You can get almost anything you want or need with the silver Community Dollars."

Deatherage's new Community Dollar is available in four convenient denominations in pure .999 fine silver and a $2 copper denomination. The silver issue consists of a $50 piece that weights one Troy ounce, the $20 weighs two-fifths of an ounce, the $10 weighs one-fifth of an ounce and the $5 weighs one-tenth of an ounce. They all feature an oak tree with "Faith - Family - Freedom" on the obverse.
