No More Posts

I haven't written anything here in quite a while and even made the blog "private" for a time.  My reasons for doing so were that 1) I've already covered all the fundamentals of both sound money as our nation's founders defined it as well as the harm done to the economy and to the vast majority of individuals by the "funny money" Federal Reserve System; and 2) there are now a great many other sites/blogs as well as news sites and a few political figures who are spreading information about the two topics mentioned in 1) above.

Rather than engage in an ongoing exercise in redundancy, I have decided to make no further posts here but to leave the site available to the public for the resources it contains.  These resources are chiefly the video Our American Money, the United States Currency Converter, the Money Box posters, My Favorite Links, and Recommended Reading.  If I'm feeling especially feisty, I might update the Prudence Dollarwise widget.

In the meantime, my best wishes to all my readers.

Tom
