Before I read the above I will make a comment.
Ron Paul has prescribed a march on Washington.
Right now I am working on a bid for a congressional seat (40th district California) with little hope of getting out of the house. In other words; my wife is nearly traumatized by the idea.
A step back in time may suffice to illustrate the interest in keeping me home (my wife’s perspective). After Waco a person by the name of Linda Thomson began a prescribed march on Washington (The Capital). I was ready to go. My wife and other considerations inspired an interest in staying home (I later ran for congress instead).
Competition in currency can be seen easily as a race to the top as competitors vie for greater accuracy (something that will sell itself) and lower cost (something that will sell itself) in any market having a genuine demand.
Example (I pick this example for a reason):
Suppose two competitive commercials (one after the other) showed up at half time during this last Super Bowl.
Commercial A was a Gun Control commercial put up by, say, AIPAC (or some other common investor investing in all three leading presidential candidates according to ‘the polls’).
Hold on for a commercial break (before I continue onto commercial number two):

Check out that poll (I’ve been tracking it for some time - look here):

Commercial B was an Armed March on The Capital commercial (as a parody not as a serious NEED) produced by reasonable people (such as, say, JPFO).
Here is some recent data that could have been included in the competitive commercial being supposed now:

The Super Bowl illustration intends to measure the relative POWER of competitive currencies (not limited to monetary or pecuniary currency = accounting currencies).
In other words the competition against true, accurate, and useful (to all rather than only useful to legal criminals imposing a false currency – for their won profit) currency is currently POWERFUL.
People will entertain an armed march on the capital as readily as people will entertain Free Money Markets. It is, if you can see it, the same thing. Both rely upon TRUST.
Do you trust your fortune, your life, and your liberty to be secured by anyone other than your own damn self?
If the answer is affirmative, then, you do, in fact, get what you deserve.
Or
If I answer in the affirmative, then, I do, in fact, get what I deserve.
I will now read the message from someone who is gaining or reinforcing a trust I have already gained albeit a reserved one.
