What most people are unaware of is that THERE IS NO LAW that says you have to accept Federal Reserve Notes as payment for a debt. If you think there is, please show it to me.
Answer from the US Treasury.
The pertinent portion of law that applies to your question is the Coinage Act of 1965, specifically Section 31 U.S.C. 5103, entitled "Legal tender," which states: "United States coins and currency (including Federal reserve notes and circulating notes of Federal reserve banks and national banks) are legal tender for all debts, public charges, taxes, and dues."
This statute means that all United States money as identified above are a valid and legal offer of payment for debts when tendered to a creditor. There is, however, no Federal statute mandating that a private business, a person or an organization must accept currency or coins as for payment for goods and/or services. Private businesses are free to develop their own policies on whether or not to accept cash unless there is a State law which says otherwise. For example, a bus line may prohibit payment of fares in pennies or dollar bills. In addition, movie theaters, convenience stores and gas stations may refuse to accept large denomination currency (usually notes above $20) as a matter of policy.

you are.
And it is Colloidal Gold which they drink to maintain health and longevity. Gold, to them (the Elite), has magical powers and so they hoard it.
Do you think something like the Baghdad Battery could be involved in making colloidal gold?
I know it's from a bit deeper down The Rabbit Hole and of dubious reality but have you heard of White Powder Gold, I believe also called Mono Atomic Gold, linked in with Akhenaten, Moses et al?

Actually I posted that to compliment what you were saying. That was not an argument.

What a silly response?
A "Debt Instrument is a written or contractual agreement to repay a debt. As in a Promissory Note. That has what to do with this topic?

The biggest problem with Gold is that they have sold far more gold certificates than Comex has Gold on hand to actually ship if people wanted to actually hold the Gold instead of just keeping it in Comex (Papal Rothschild Vaults) and trading it through certificates.
With regard to your rundown on the Fed, I agree with most of it - I'm not sure about the bankruptcy part, I've heard it a few times - but never seen any really good raw data there.

How about one iota of proof for the first half of that post?
Why would the founders agree to be indebted to European powers after winning the revolutionary war? Where does it state officially (not on some fanciful conspiracy site) that the US is a bankrupt 'corporation'? What did Traficant say that exposed all this? It sounds like some fanciful fiction to me but I am open minded. The real debt is ofcourse owed to China. Link?
