This is why the IRS is not a true government agency and why your tax dollars have no accountability and why they have not gone towards making reality a better more sustainable place for your family.
Also why people technically rent their homes from gov they dont actually own them(have to pay taxes or loose it).

Unfortunately theres not much you can do when they are using military tech(5g)but not limited to, in order to prevent any real threat of overthrow of a fine tuned & malevolently controlled system that has people in the lower consciousness state of deciding between pepsi or "cokie" & or cheetos or doritos instead of how to collectively reclaim their spiritual freedoms

Theres a reason kennedy & Lincoln were killed and why ron paul never got allowed back on the campaign stage after TV polls found his anti fed reserve sentiment very popular.
You can mess w/ the paper but you can't really mess w/ those who safe guard its printing, monitoring, and distribution thereby.

There isn't enough precious metal nowadays to account for money as a 1:1 receipt. There are just too many millions of people.

I liked blackxisens idea where we tie the value of X dollars to a barrel of oil or a certain mWh of energy.


There wasn't ever a 1:1 ratio. But there was enough to ensure trust. Without the link to specie, the trust is gone, but hey, it allows the government to spend unchecked by financial reality.

and the fact money was not just a paper novelty despite its durability, it was essentially a receipt for gold which was considered valuable for its eclectic use in all their cultural endeavors including its ability to foster healing.
Also why the ancient cultures were big on gems, crystals, and various polished energy systems, the beauty or shiny-ness was the aesthetic that accompanied its inherent functionality or usefulness.

In the 1960s, you could buy a gallon of gas for a 90% silver quarter.

Today, I can almost buy a gallon of gas for the same quarter ($3.93 melt value).
