THE DESTRUCTION OF THE U.S. DOLLAR

You that trample on the needy, and bring ruin to the poor of 
the land, saying... We will make the ephah small and the 
shekel great, and practice deceit with false balances.
Amos 8, verses 4-5

"It is apparent from the whole context of the Constitution 
as well as the history of the times which gave birth to it, 
that it was the purpose of the Convention to establish a 
currency consisting of the precious metals. These were 
adopted by a permanent rule excluding the use of a 
perishable medium of exchange, such as of certain 
agricultural commodities recognized by the statutes of some 
States as tender for debts, or the still more pernicious 
expedient of paper currency."
-- Andrew Jackson, 1836

"There is no subtler, no surer means of overturning the 
existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The 
process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the 
side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one 
man in a million is able to diagnose."
-- John Maynard Keynes, 1920
