Letters to the Editor
Working Out a World Currency I hate to give the insiders ideas, but if they want a world currency, they will have to do it the old-fashioned way. They need to start with notes that are backed by gold. The central banks of the world own about 30,000 tons of gold. They could issue notes that are good for one ounce, half ounce, or even down to a gram or fractions of a gram. Then one could cross a border with gold notes and never need to exchange currency.

Cut Earmarks Anyway
I understand the reasoning behind some Republicans saying that stopping earmarks will not cut the budget. But as a voter, I am sick of Congress putting earmarks into a bill that is important and should be passed, to pass an earmark that should not get through. I believe that we the people are tired of hearing about states getting millions of dollars for pet projects off the backs of hard working people of other states. Let’s not forget the “Bridge to Nowhere!” Republicans, we do not trust any of you yet!
