Today in History
On Feb. 12, 1873, the U.S. Congress passed legislation removing the silver dollar from the list of coins authorized for minting; this move weakened "bimetalism" and pushed the United States toward the gold standard (which happened formally in 1900). The country left the gold standard domestically in 1933 and then internationally in 1971.
"Every step we take towards making the State our Caretaker of our lives, by that much we move toward making the State our Master."

"Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms — to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way."
– Viktor Frankl
