So Liberty Dollar is now under attack by the US goverment, as well as E-gold. It's no surprise, since to many, the USA is turning into a fascist state reminiscent of 1930s Germany.

What made me laugh was that apparently the Fed says their minting of Silver dollars violates the constitution. Surely in any free nation, currency is whatever the people themselves decide it is, so if enough people had decided to use Liberty Dollars, in what way could that possibly have been illegal?

Tragic. In a funny way, I actually feel safer in the more socialist EU. For a start, with 24 nations in the EU, the chances of them agreeing on anything cross-borders are remote, and if one country does become not to your liking, then the answer is to move to another one with rules that suit you better.
