The document discusses the history and definition of the US dollar. It explains that the US Constitution gives Congress the power to coin money and regulate its value. The Coinage Act of 1792 established the US Mint and defined coins of gold, silver, and copper, including dollars. The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 established the Federal Reserve System and granted it authority to issue Federal Reserve notes as legal tender to be redeemed for lawful money. However, the dollar is technically a note or debt obligation rather than an actual coin backed by precious metals.

The History Of U.S. Dollar
The history of the U.S. dollar progressed through several periods and changes. It began as backed by both gold and silver from 1792 to 1873 in a bimetallic system. From 1873 to 1971 it was on the gold standard solely. Since 1971 it has been a fiat currency not backed by gold, following the removal of the gold clause from bills. The symbols and designs on the dollar bill represent American values and history.
1 the international monetary system
This document discusses the history and evolution of international monetary systems. It begins by describing the barter system used before currencies. It then explains how the gold standard system established relatively stable exchange rates between currencies from the 19th century until World War I by pegging currencies to gold. However, the gold standard broke down during the interwar years and WWII. In 1944, the Bretton Woods Agreement established the US dollar as the global reserve currency and created the IMF and World Bank to manage the new system of fixed exchange rates tied to the dollar. However, the system collapsed in the early 1970s due to US deficits and the Nixon administration ending dollar convertibility to gold. This led to a transition to a system of floating exchange rates
Demonetisation
Demonetization is the act of stripping a currency unit of its legal tender status. It occurs when there is a change in national currency. Often, the current currency is removed from circulation and replaced with new notes or coins. Sometimes, an entire new currency replaces the old one. Three examples given are the UK adopting decimal currency in 1971, the successor states of the Soviet Union in the 1990s, and India demonetizing high value rupee notes in 2016. Legal tender status can also be removed from individual coins or banknotes.

A key aspect was pegging currency to the U.S. dollar, which was convertible to gold. However, the system broke down in the early 1970s due to heavy U.S. spending during the Vietnam War which depleted U.S. gold reserves.

Chinese laborers were then hired to build the Transcontinental Railroad in the 1860s, but were left unemployed once completed in 1869. Anti-Chinese sentiment grew, culminating in the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act that banned Chinese immigration for 10 years, and was further extended by subsequent acts into the early 20th century. Some repeal and limited immigration was allowed again after 1943.

Into to money
Barter was used before money, where goods and services were directly exchanged. Various objects then served as early forms of money, such as beaded shells used by Native Americans and paper currency issued during the American Revolution. Representative money in the form of receipts and bank notes later emerged and evolved into the dominant fiat currency we use today, Federal Reserve Notes. Money derives its value from being a generally accepted medium of exchange, unit of account, and store of value, backed ultimately by public faith rather than physical commodities like gold.
OUR MONEY.ppt
History and Origin of Money
Money serves three purposes:
Medium of Exchange
People accept money in trade for goods and services.
Standard of Value
The value of a good or service can be measured with money. For example, a car with a price of $2,000 is worth twice as much as a car with a price of $1,000.
Store of Value
Money can be saved and used in the future.
Most early cultures traded precious metals. In 2500 BC the Egyptians produced metal rings for use as money. By 700 BC, a group of seafaring people called the Lydians became the first in the Western world to make coins. They used coins to expand a vast trading empire. The Greeks & Romans continued coining and passed it on to later Western civilizations. Coins were appealing since they were durable, easy to carry and contained valuable metals.
Money replaced BARTER as a system of trade
During the 18th century, coins became popular throughout Europe. One of the most widely used coins was the Spanish 8-reale. It was often split into pieces or bits to make change. Half a coin was 4 bits, a quarter was 2 bits, a term still used today. Coins containing precious metals are an example of "commodity money." The item was traded because it held value. The value of the coin depended upon the amount of gold and silver it contained.
The Chinese were the first to use paper money, beginning in the T'ang Dynasty (618-907 A.D.). During the Ming Dynasty in 1300 AD, the Chinese placed the emperor's seal and signatures of the treasurers on a crude paper made from mulberry bark.
Representative money is tokens or pieces of paper that are not intrinsically valuable themselves, but can be exchanged for a specific commodity, such as gold or silver. In 1715 Maryland, North Carolina and Virginia issued a "tobacco note" which could be converted to a certain amount of tobacco. This type of money was easier to make large payments and carry than coin or tobacco leaves. In the late 1800s, the U.S. government issued gold and silver certificates
Ch11
The three functions of money are as a medium of exchange, measure of value, and store of value. Four types of money were used in colonial America: commodity money, wampum, paper currency, and specie. The dollar developed from the peso and taler, which were both widely used in the late 1700s and similar in size, shape, and silver content. The Constitution gives the federal government the power to mint coins. Five types of U.S. currency were in circulation between 1861 and 1900, including greenbacks, national bank notes, gold certificates, silver certificates, and treasury coin notes.
PowerPoint: My Money and Its Development
Money refers to assets that function as a medium of exchange, unit of account, and store of value, while currency is a physical form of money like coins and banknotes used in a particular country. Early civilizations used barter systems and commodity money like gold coins, but these had problems leading to the development of fiat currency not backed by commodities. Modern forms of money include paper currency, credit money in accounts, and digital currencies as society has moved to more abstract representations of value over physical commodities.
Thirty little known facts about america
The document lists 30 little known facts about America, the IRS, IMF, and executive orders. Some key points include:
1) The IRS is an agency of the IMF, which is an agency of the UN. The US Treasury is now the IMF.
2) There is no actual US government since it has been bankrupt since the 1930s. All agencies were never actually part of the US government.
3) Social Security numbers are issued by the UN through the IMF. Social Security is not insurance and there is no trust fund. Benefits come directly from the IMF.
4) Legally, Americans own no property and are considered tenants. The most powerful court is the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
Chronology of market and monetary policy
1. This document provides a chronological overview of major events impacting the US market and monetary policy from the colonial era through 2000, including the establishment of early stock exchanges, passage of key legislation, and admissions of states to the union.
2. It describes the founding of important early American financial institutions like the First Bank of the United States in 1791 and the New York Stock Exchange in 1792.
3. The document also summarizes landmark laws passed by Congress in the 1790s that established the US Treasury Department, authorized the minting of coins, and imposed the first internal revenue tax on distilled spirits.
Unit 4
Money has evolved from commodity money like coins to more abstract forms like fiat currency. Banks emerged to provide safekeeping of money and lending. The US banking system transitioned from state-chartered banks to the establishment of the Federal Reserve System in 1913, which centralized banking and provided stability. Banking is now highly regulated to prevent crises like the Savings and Loan crisis of the 1980s.
Senate Document 43
This document summarizes various court cases from the 1860s dealing with contracts that stipulated payment in gold coin or specie during a time when paper currency not backed by gold was the prevailing legal tender. The majority of cases found that specifying payment in gold did not preclude payment in the legal paper currency, as long as the nominal dollar amount was paid. However, some cases such as those involving payment of gold as rent ruled that the contract required payment of the specified quantity of gold.

Gold is money, via Mises Institute
This book summarily rejects the statist monetary orthodoxy. Its nine writers are in full agreement that money is not the product of a legislative act, but the inevitable result of man's division of labor and exchange economy. Wherever enterprising men seek to exchange their goods and services for more marketable goods that facilitate further exchanges for other goods, the precious metals, especially gold, are most suited to serve as money. The writers are aware that for some 2,500 years small pieces of gold and silver, called coins, constituted universal money. It survived two millennia in spite of countless attempts by hosts of governments to manipulate it or replace it with their own media. They are convinced that gold will soon return as universal money and prevail long after the present rash of national fiats is forgotten or relegated to currency museums.
The essays of this collection are the product of a lecture series given at Grove City College during the 1973 Spring Semester.

Economic Outlook 2008
The document summarizes the US economic outlook from 2008 to 2011. It discusses several factors that contributed to the housing bubble and current economic crisis, including loose monetary policy, the use of adjustable rate mortgages, and the securitization of subprime loans. It predicts a long recovery for the housing market, a doubling of the money supply leading to high inflation, and potentially major problems for the US dollar if other nations drop it as their reserve currency or demand higher prices for oil. The key recommendations are to get out of debt, save money, and potentially buy gold as a hedge against inflation and a falling dollar.

The document provides an overview of the international monetary system, including key historical systems like the gold standard and Bretton Woods system, as well as the current floating exchange rate regime. It describes the evolution from commodity money to representative money backed by gold or silver to modern fiat currencies. The gold standard fixed currency values to gold, while Bretton Woods pegged most currencies to the US dollar, which was convertible to gold. The system broke down in the 1970s and was replaced by floating exchange rates determined by supply and demand.
Money And Banking
The document discusses various topics related to money and banking in the United States, including the following key points:
- There is over $2 trillion in U.S. currency in circulation globally, enough to provide over $2000 for each person.
- The Federal Reserve is responsible for printing paper currency and regulating the money supply and interest rates to influence economic conditions.
- U.S. coins are minted in Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco, with over 7 billion pennies minted each year. Paper currency is printed in Washington D.C. and Fort Worth.
- The Bureau of Engraving and Printing replaces damaged bills if over 51% of the bill is received, including recovering $850 after

US Economic Outlook 2008-11+ (Updated 28 May 08); Discussion of Money, Federal Reserve, Dollar as World's Reserve Currency, Inflation, Deflation, Oil, OPEC, Debt, Saving Rate, Housing Bubble and Future Outlook for US Economy
Economic Outlook 2008
The document summarizes the US economic outlook from 2008 to 2011. It discusses several factors that contributed to the housing bubble and current economic crisis, including loose monetary policy, the use of adjustable rate mortgages, and the securitization of subprime loans. It predicts a long recovery for the housing market, a doubling of the money supply leading to high inflation, and potentially major problems for the US dollar if other nations drop it as their reserve currency or demand higher prices for oil. The key recommendations are to get out of debt, save money, and potentially buy gold as a hedge against inflation and a falling dollar.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.falcon-invoice-discounting-a-strategic-approach-to-optimize-investments

Fabular Frames and the Four Ratio Problem
Digital, interactive art showing the struggle of a society in providing for its present population while also saving planetary resources for future generations. Spread across several frames, the art is actually the rendering of real and speculative data. The stereographic projections change shape in response to prompts and provocations. Visitors interact with the model through speculative statements about how to increase savings across communities, regions, ecosystems and environments. Their fabulations combined with random noise, i.e. factors beyond control, have a dramatic effect on the societal transition. Things get better. Things get worse. The aim is to give visitors a new grasp and feel of the ongoing struggles in democracies around the world.
Stunning art in the small multiples format brings out the spatiotemporal nature of societal transitions, against backdrop issues such as energy, housing, waste, farmland and forest. In each frame we see hopeful and frightful interplays between spending and saving. Problems emerge when one of the two parts of the existential anaglyph rapidly shrinks like Arctic ice, as factors cross thresholds. Ecological wealth and intergenerational equity areFour at stake. Not enough spending could mean economic stress, social unrest and political conflict. Not enough saving and there will be climate breakdown and ‘bankruptcy’. So where does speculative design start and the gambling and betting end? Behind each fabular frame is a four ratio problem. Each ratio reflects the level of sacrifice and self-restraint a society is willing to accept, against promises of prosperity and freedom. Some values seem to stabilise a frame while others cause collapse. Get the ratios right and we can have it all. Get them wrong and things get more desperate.
