Tax receipts are forgone for payments the state should be paying.<br /><br />This is not a 1:1 deficit spending comparision as the US Fed&TSY does.<br /><br />So look out for even more confusion and ignorance about how the monetary system works.googleheimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14459089745473598235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-8395750695798181092009-07-11T15:19:56.584-04:002009-07-11T15:19:56.584-04:00Yes, but the question is, will it stand?

It could very well be challenged on the grounds that the Federal Government has a monopoly in regards to the creation of currency and that the use of the IOU in this manner is tantamount to "creating currency" and therefore unconstitutional. However, if it is challanged there will be a fierce confrontation and likely to ensure Obama forfeits California's 56 electoral votes in the next election.mike normanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03296006882513340747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-13630856009531051642009-07-11T15:12:22.053-04:002009-07-11T15:12:22.053-04:00This is truly mind blowing.
