Liberty Dollars

A business has the gall to produce coinage in silver and gold to compete with the U. S. Government's paper fiat money and pot metal coinage. Of course they get arrested and the silver and gold seized. Me, I'd love to go into to a store to make a purchase and get silver coins as change. It's kinda like getting something for nothing. I'd also like to know if the FBI Agent who said this...

“Consumers were using their hard-earned money to buy goods and services, then getting fake change in return.”

...was able to keep a straight face when he did? The guys at Liberty Dollars had to know this was going to happen. One thing you can guarantee is that no government is going to allow direct competition against itself.
