Mr. President Trump, Sir: you are working tirelessly, against tremendous
odds, to carry out your mission in life, which is to “Make America
Great Again”.
I propose to you a measure fully in accord with your vision of a great,
united nation of America, working for prosperity; a measure that conveys a
fundamental message of inspiration for the American people. The greatness of
a nation flowers when its moral stature is elevated, and such is the object
of the measure that I suggest to you.
I suggest that you restore to Americans the use of silver money as a means
of savings, to grant Americans the peace of mind that such savings provide,
immune to the ravages of inflation which now decimate the savings of the
whole world.
If you should take up the challenge which such a measure involves, you
would, without any doubt, be accorded a stature of greatness as President of
the United States of America, not seen since the time of Andrew Jackson.
And not only that: you would achieve a landslide electoral victory in your
re-election as President in 2020.
Furthermore, thanks to the moral significance of having created silver
money for your Nation, you would win over to the United States the goodwill
of the whole of the Western Hemisphere, which for centuries and up to the
early 20th Century, labored with the use of silver money: the
whole Hemisphere would follow your glorious example.
I am not, by any means, suggesting the abandonment of your established
system of paper money: I am suggesting silver money that will operate in
parallel with paper money, for the exclusive use of silver money as a means
of saving.
Silver money disappeared from circulation in the whole world, because
silver money traditionally bore a stamped monetary value, and when the price
of silver began to rise as a consequence of the general inflation of prices
caused by paper money, the silver in the coinage became worth more than its
stamped value. This caused the disappearance of the world´s silver money,
which in the United States took place in the early 60’s.
The solution to the problem lies in creating silver money without a
stamped monetary value; the monetary value will be imparted to the coinage by
means of a monetary quote, to be issued by your Treasury. This quote would
include a profit for the Treasury, over the cost of the silver in the coins.
The quote would rise with rises in the dollar value of industrial silver, but
never be diminished in the event of falls in the value of silver.
Over the whole course of History, the creation of money has been the
exclusive right of Government, and in assigning to your Treasury the function
of creating silver money by means of a quote, you would be following a
centuries’ old practice that operated until the usurpation of the creation of
money by a cabal of bankers.
According to one investigator – Steve St. Angelo, who publishes his
articles at www.srsroccoreport.com – in the period from 1986 to the
present, the American people have purchased more than 520,000,000 ounces of
silver for their savings. These savings are in the form of “Eagle” silver
ounces, which are stamped “One Dollar”.
Just like Stocks or Bonds which bear a printed value when issued, but
whose daily value depends on the quote given to them by the Market, so the
“Eagle” ounces can be monetized by means of a quote higher than the “One
Dollar” stamped on these coins. (New issues of “Eagle” coins would omit the
words “One Dollar”).
So, I suggest that the President of the United States of America issue an Executive
Order, ordering the Treasury:
1. To issue an official monetary quote for the Silver Eagle. I suggest the
initial quote shall be, for the time being, $30 dollars. This quote will
never be less, but may be worth considerably more as the price of silver
rises.
2. To increase the monetary value of the Silver Eagle, when necessary.
Subsequent rises of the price of silver, which would reduce the seigniorage
accruing to the Treasury to less than 40%, shall cause the Treasury to
increase the monetary quote to the next multiple of 5 dollars.
3. To retain the last monetary quote for the Silver Eagle if the price of
silver falls, and not reduce it under any circumstances.
3. To accept that all debts to the Treasury shall be payable both in
Dollars or in Silver Eagle coins at the quoted monetary value
assigned to them by the Treasury.
This Executive Order turns the Silver Eagle ounces – all 520 million of
them – into silver money.
Mr. President Trump: please imagine for a moment, the joy and steadfast
political support of the millions of Americans who have purchased these
silver ounces, when you announce that their ounces are now worth, as money,
$30 Dollars each. At one stroke you will have demolished negative
attitudes of millions of Democrats by granting them, as well as your millions
of Republican supporters, an immensely important gift: silver money which
will increase in monetary value, as the price of silver rises – a gift which
will cost your Treasury nothing! On the contrary, your Treasury will be
making a profit on all further coinage of Silver Eagles!
In boxing terms, your enemies suppose they have you on the ropes. So, in
this moment it would be a stunning surprise if you snatch from them the control
of the 'narrative', by monetizing the Silver Eagle; thus, you draw the
attention of the totality of the American people and of the whole world with
this splendid move: to offer the American people the possibility of placing a
part of their savings in ready silver money.
Mr. President Trump: I have outlined in a few words, a plan that if
pursued, will immediately invigorate the United States of America, as each
American does his very best to work and produce the wherewithal to become the
owner of silver ounces, for his and his family’s wellbeing.
Mr. President Trump, Sir: Do you have it in you, to achieve such
greatness as President, as will endure for centuries in the collective memory
of the United States of America? Then -
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN WITH SILVER MONEY
