Quite interesting that the gov will accept them just fine but takes great exception to them being used as wage re-imbursement.

Thats exactly the problem we are facing. Either the Fed has to go...and the IRS for that matter, or we eventually lose everything (assuming we have not already..)
The real wealth of the US was pilfered long ago, what is being taken from us at this very moment is any remaining wealth we stood to gain in the future. We've become slaves to an institution with which we entrusted our way of life and in return for our way of life, they are offering nothing less than servitude.
