That really says something about the government and USD. But I concur, the best strategy would have been for Liberty Dollar to stick to coin at first until it was apparent the federal government wasn't going to try and steal it all. Then as the confidence grows, start issuing paper receipts. I can't see how the US govt. calling USLD counterfeit USD and putting von NotHaus in jail is different from the Stamp Act which ultimately lead to the (real) Boston Tea Party. Separately, with USD you DO have to worry about the government busting into the warehouse. Except for the fact that there is no warehouse, they just type it in the computer and "print" more money. That is stealing.

Well if it was backed in ANYTHING it would have more going for it that USD. Long live Liberty Dollar!

In this video interview with Neil Young, he states that dominant digital audio formats are inadequate and 'some rich guy' needs to build a new iPod that will play up to 30 albums. I don't think he's heard of flac or the Sansa Clip+ (or MOST Android devices).

If you re-read your response, you see that you just confirmed my 2nd statement. Also, in using fantastic and absurd comparisons to create an anchor for the reading audience to discredit the opposing view, you demonstrate how you have been conditioned to respond to anything challenging the position for which you have been programed to subscribe to. Lots of science there.

If you dig (just a little) deeper than controlled mainstream 'news', you will find all kinds of studies/information. Now if you just want to read time/about/huffpost/nytimes/&c., than you can continue to confirm your beliefs and read how contrary studies have been de-bunked. I'm not going to show you how to use google. Do you need me to? Really?

I'm sure that the huge spike in ADD & autism has nothing to do with the increase in vaccinations or the fact that those conditions often first develop coinciding with the vaccinations. And all the studies that have suggested this aren't real science because slashdot readers know which studies are valid and which should be dismissed.

Rifling increases accuracy for a 'dumb' bullet. However, this bullet is receiving updates and making adjustments in flight, so rifling wouldn't make sense here. Doesn't matter. Until a box of cartridges sells for less than $30, it means nothing to me anyway.

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people. Don't forget that each State also has their own Constitution which defines them. In most cases (hopefully), the people wield the most power, then the States, lastly the United States. Wouldn't it be great if that actually happened.

Whaa?

I'll try to remember that next time I'm getting frisked at the airport (has happened a lot) or in the subway (has happened), since I'm no longer a "law abiding citizen".

It was scrambled with hash. It was just supposed to be salted & peppered but the line cook put salsa on it and that's usually over easy. Crazy world today.

Look at his foreign policy. He is the strongest anti-war candidate running in ANY party. He has proposed pulling ALL troops and ending ALL over seas bases.

Ron Paul is completely against invading Iran and has been very clear about it.

More expensive hardware? More usage on the existing lines? Is it really that much? Where does the big expense actually come from?

Don't 'drink the Kool-Aid'
