    Not a bad idea at all. Sure beats the millions John Gormley spent on carbon credits.

    How is the global warming back there. I remember snow in the 80s, long since a thing of the past now

    If I was in Idaho, I'd pay my taxes with Dollars and I'd keep the silver medallions.

    Silver is more undervalued than gold, going by the old ratios that existed before Fiat currency turned us into slaves.

    It is brilliant news. As people see the medallians rise in value the will hoard them.

    Gresham's Law will kick in.

    Bad money chases out good


    Mexico and Peru have thought about silver backed currencies

    Hoarding something doesn't turn it into currency. Currency is something exchanged in trade.

    A bill to allow citizens to pay their taxes with silver medallions gains support. Goldbugs are watching closely.

    With only one state representative dissenting, the Idaho House State Affairs committee voted on Monday to endorse HB 633, a bill that would allow Idaho citizens to pay their state taxes with an official state silver medallion.

    Be quiet Seabhan, I have every boghole in the home place planted with a small plastic bag containing 20 ounces of gold that I paid 6000 dollars for.


    I will exchange each, in trade, for a house. Coming up on 10 years but I will not need to wait much past this summer now will I.

    Havn't forgotten myself either. If Peter Michaels in Galway still exists I will by it. Last time I was there drinking cider there were a few hookie-dookies up stairs.

    +1. Going on the historical relationship between the two, you are right. We are, however, in a strange place in strange times.
