Chistmas Eve, 2007 ~ Hillside Drive ~ Here is the redesign of the Constitutional US Monetary system.

The US Coin bank mints Gold and Silver coins, near fine bullion, denominated by weight. US.gov establishes the current buy sell prices in the supported currencies as frequently as strategy requires. These coins are legal tender just like the dollar. State may chose to charter banks which can loan these coins at interest in non-fractional in banks, separate from the Federal Reserve System. The issuance of these coins requires a law by congress signed by the pesident to begin the process.

The US Scrip system is a postal product, which can be first seen as the Postal Money Order Version 2. US Scrip is a stored value national transaction processing system operated by the Constitutional US Postal System under the auspices of the PostMaster general. This action does not require the consent of congress or the president.

US Scrip is a stored value transaction processing system in which any SSnumber or FedTaxID can transfer SS Scrip Credits to any other citizen or US corporation. For the first year of operation US Scrip would run at simple parity with the Federal Reserve Dollar. After the first year the Post Office would set a current price to purchase a US Scrip Credit. It could be 90 cents, it could be $1.10 or even $200 if appropriate.

No charge is ever made to either side of the transaction. The software is ultra efficient. The Tranaction Processing is ultra advanced having security levels from simple ID and password thru multiple layers of biometrics.

Each Federal Reserve Dollar that is collected by the post office for the Store Value as a redit goes into a holding account and stays there. Each credit that is purchased as stored value becomes a permanent addition to the US Scrip Currency base. But US Scrip is NOT LEGAL TENDER. You can't buy Federal Reserve Dollars with Scrip. You can't buy any financial instrument with Scrip. You can buy US Coins with scrip becuse they are a Product.

Each Dollar that is used to Purchase Scrip Credits is withdrawn from the American Economy and simply earns interest (Maybe on short term T Bills) which is also then withdrawn from the Federral Reserve Note economy. Deflation occurs directly with each transaction.

The US Postal service could then offer Zip Code based insurnce services: Car, Medical, Life, Commercial in which the active actuarial table is derived exclusively from the Zip code in which the Post Office is located. Local Insurance will have rates determined entirely by local events. Because the Postal Service will hold the massive reserves of the the dollars spent to store value in the US Scrip system the capitol resevoir to shoulder the actuarial base is there doinging nothing but collecting interest anyway. These insurance services are entirely voluntary. In some areas where a lot of bad tings go wrong it wuld be very hard to compete with corporate insurance. In areas where health is good insurance would be cheaper than a national actuarial premium.

Statement Introducing the Free Competition in Currency Act

Summary:

As a proponent of competition in currencies, I believe that the American people should be free to choose the type of currency they prefer to use. The ability of consumers to adopt alternative currencies can help to keep the government and the Federal Reserve honest, as the threat that further inflation will cause more and more people to opt out of using the dollar may restrain the government from debasing the currency. As monopolists, however, the Federal Reserve and the Mint fear competition, and would rather force competitors out using the federal court system and the threat of asset forfeiture than compete in the market.

by Ron Paul, Dr. December 13, 2007

Madame Speaker, I rise to introduce the Free Competition in Currency Act. This act would eliminate two sections of US Code that, although ostensibly intended to punish counterfeiters, have instead been used by the government to shut down private mints. As anti-counterfeiting measures, these sections are superfluous, as 18 USC 485, 490, and 491 already grant sufficient authority to punish counterfeiters.

The two sections this bill repeals, 18 USC 486 and 489, are so broadly written as to effectively restrict any form of private coinage from competing with the products of the United States Mint. Allowing such statutes to remain in force as a catch-all provision merely encourages prosecutorial abuse. One particular egregious recent example is that of the Liberty Dollar, in which federal agents seized millions of dollars worth of private currency held by a private mint on behalf of thousands of people across the country.

Due to nearly a century of inflationary monetary policy on the part of the Federal Reserve, the US dollar stands at historically low levels. Investors around the world are shunning the dollar, and millions of Americans see their salaries, savings accounts, and pensions eroded away by rising inflation. We stand on the precipice of an unprecedented monetary collapse, and as a result many people have begun to look for alternatives to the dollar.

As a proponent of competition in currencies, I believe that the American people should be free to choose the type of currency they prefer to use. The ability of consumers to adopt alternative currencies can help to keep the government and the Federal Reserve honest, as the threat that further inflation will cause more and more people to opt out of using the dollar may restrain the government from debasing the currency. As monopolists, however, the Federal Reserve and the Mint fear competition, and would rather force competitors out using the federal court system and the threat of asset forfeiture than compete in the market.

A free society should shun this type of strong-arm action, and the Free Competition in Currency Act would take the necessary first steps to freeing the market for competing currencies. I urge my colleagues to support this bill.
