Well, honestly, because toilet paper is made from trees as we know, and so are America’s dollar bill denominations. If the American Dollar isn’t worth anything now, then it wasn’t really worth anything at all to begin with, do you think?
When reflecting on currency during Bible times, the last thing approved to be currency for exchanges of food, goods, and services were only silver and gold. Those are the two things we should be investing American currency into right now while it still holds whatever value it does.
Besides, it’s still the law, written that this country knows and has implemented based on the Bible that silver and gold are the only two approved as valuable and valid currency for exchanges. Most people don’t know it.
We’ve been led to believe otherwise that the American dollar held significant value from the beginning of its existence.
If you think about it, America’s currency started out it’s composition of coins in 1792 mixed with 89.24% real pure silver and 10.76% copper. In 1837, silver coins were made up of 90% silver. Slowly over time, America has reduced the silver in US coin currency to none at all, composing them nowadays out of cheap worthless metals.
1866- five cent coins eliminated silver to nickel & copper
1965- ten and twenty-five cent coins eliminated silver
1971- no more silver contained in circulating coins
1933- the Mint stopped the production of gold coins all together
If coins ARE composed of silver these days, it’s only for the purposes of collecting and investing.
Now, peep this. Ponder a second over the idea of paper money. First, it’s made out of paper, paper made out of trees. It’s dipped in or coated with a special dye. It’s stamped with a particular type of special glossy ink and contains deceased presidents of USA, (except for one, Benjamin Franklin), on different denominations.
Now ask yourself, what makes those paper bills so valuable? The ink? The presidents on them? The type of special paper that helps determine the difference between them being real or counterfeit when marked with a special detection marker?
NOTHING! They aren’t made of gold nor silver or any valuable precious jewel or anything. It’s something made by a human being who MERELY SAID it holds value. They successfully planted the idea that because when exchanging, for example, a twenty dollar bill for a food item costing $4.50, there were other denominations and coins created as well to provide the buyer with the remainder of the $20 value that they are owed.
Their planned worked. They got the world on the bandwagon to believe that paper with ink on it was really worth something. It’s JUST paper that beats toilet paper by a hair because it has something added onto it more than toilet paper has, INK!
Trying to get everyone onboard with digital currency is another reason people are saying the American dollar is just toilet paper!
Thank what I like about you Latasha, you go into my best subject and that’s history. Well look America has been using the dollar as a weapon against many countries and now the world iss fed up with the America dollar and now turning towards Russia, China, India and Brazil to do business. I mean look at Russia now because of all those many Sanctions to try destroy the Russian economy that didn’t work now the Russian economy is growing rapidly much faster than the America economy. Then you got China soon will over take America worth and economy power in the world anyway I can go on and on why Richard Wolff and so many Americans millionaire are saying the American Dollar is just toilet paper.
