For decades experts like Dr. Edwin Vieira and others have been warning the day of reckoning would come regarding the unconstitutional ‘Federal’ Reserve  and the destruction it’s done to this country for over 100 years. The issue of the ‘Fed’ and fiat currency is what captured my attention almost 27 years ago; I then began my journey for the truth.

Over the past few years hard working individuals have been working with their state legislatures to try and get them to understand the problem with our debauched currency, what will happen when the dollar collapses and the chaos that will follow. Those efforts have been referred to as getting ‘constitutional sound money’ bills through state legislatures and signed into law by governors.

Not an easy task for two reasons: (1) complete ignorance by state reps and senators on the subject matter and, (2) the same old destructive game of politics sacrificing the American people for power plays.

In 2009, Dr. Vieira and a couple other experts on constitutional sound money made a presentation to the banking committee in Montana. True to form, Democrats made sure it died leaving the citizens of the State of Montana on the same sinking ship as almost all the other states. A couple of states have passed what they call sound money bills, but I believe after getting educated on this issue they are far too weak.

In 2015 our legislature passed and Gov. Abbott signed the Texas Bullion Depository bill into law. You can read the back story here. Abbott also asked the NY ‘Federal’ Reserve to return $1 billion in gold that belongs to Texas. We the taxpayers are forced to spend $1 million bux a year on storage fees. It’s my understanding the ‘Fed’ said they will once the depository is built. Personally, I don’t think they have it but we shall see down the road.

Allegedly construction of the depository was to begin December 1, 2016, but I can find no further follow up. As that article points out, this brings the possibility of some exciting changes.

I bring all that up because a new, historic bill has been introduced in our legislature that ­ according to sources who know ­ it should pass both the Texas House and Senate. Unbelievably, the ‘iffy’ is Gov. Greg Abbott signing it into law.

My dear friend, Tom Selgas, was involved in a lawsuit regarding purchase of his property and how the local appraisal district decided to treat the value of the gold used to make the purchase. You really must read the short opinion here to get a full understanding.

Tom then submitted a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari to the United States Supreme Court. If ever there was a case that SHOULD have been heard by those nine judges, it was Tom’s. The questions raised are vital and affect all of us. Act surprised, the court refused to hear his case. PLEASE take the time to read at least the first dozen or so pages so you get a clear understanding of what is at stake here and what the Twelfth Circuit here in Texas decided to do that is so outrageous and yet nothing happened to those black robes:

QUESTIONS PRESENTED FOR REVIEW to the U.S. Supreme Court: Does  the  Texas  Twelfth  Court  of  Appeals’  holding on the valuation of United States coined gold dollars, directly conflict with long-standing federal precedent which  was  detailed  by  this  Court  in  Thompson  v.  Butler,  95  U.S.  694  (1877)  and  which  was  recently relied  upon  by  the  Fifth  Circuit  Court  of  Appeals  in deciding  an  analogous  Texas  tax  case,  Crummey  v.  Klein Indep. School Dist., 2008 WL 4441957 (5th Cir. ,2008)?

Which now brings us around to the bill in our legislature. There are a number of individuals in our state legislature who do understand the problem with fiat currency, why gold is king and what’s crumbling around us. I can’t tell you how important this new bill is ­ a bill which should be in EVERY state capitol in the country.
