Free Market Money

Here is an article sent in by Ricardo on a fellow who was prosecuted for offering an alternative currency.  A couple of lessons:  the Harvard professor decrying the use of gold and silver as money points out that those times where gold and silver are most popular are terrible times.  Just so.  But what he fails to note is they are popular after the state has ruined the currency, so in the bad times hard money returns.  We are there again.

The second lesson is know that always your lawyer is a government worker first and foremost.  If it gets down to you or the state, they will always work for the state.  Always defend yourself in court.

Feel free to forward this by email to three of your friends.
