LOL....That’s equivalent to 89 blue whales and a ballistic submarine......don’t need to cross no stinkin’ bridges! [see graphic #20] ;)
Funnily enough, I’d be less concerned if they were really thinking about a coin the weight of a ballistic missile submarine. I imagine what they envision is something like a microscopically thin layer of platinum over the equivalent of a wooden nickel. Ben Bernanke’s ‘Quantitative Easing’ jive is too transparent for just about anyone aware of what happened in Weimar, Germany or the former Rhodesia, Zimbabwe. And this coinage issue is just more trickery upon that trickery. If they thought they had the authority to assign value to colorful wampum equal to debt or deficit, their media lackeys and low-to-medium information voters would be talking about that now.
