Not to mention that gold standard hasn't been used by any government for awhile now.

Love the cartoon Darb, and couldn't agree more with Loren.

As to the bills, I haven't heard anything about it but personally, I don't really care what they look like, I'd rather have them in my wallet than not.

It really bugs me when people try to drag nonsensical propaganda about the sitting president (or other political figure) into a discussion.

The US dollar hasn't been backed by gold since 1933! And the limited silver backing ended in 1964! WTF has Obama got to do with any of that???

The fuss here is more related to the proposed "Amero" North American currency idea that's related to the NAFTA treaty. Doesn't look like it's going anywhere anytime soon, but it could.
