HJR-192

Every provision contained in or made with respect to any obligation which purports to give the obligee a right to require payment in gold or a particular kind of coin or currency, or in any amount of money the United States measured thereby, is declared to be against public policy, and no such obligation shall be contained minor made with respect to any obligation hereafter incurred. Every application, heretofore or hereafter incurred, whether or not such provisions is contained therein or made with respect thereto, shall be discharged upon payment for payment, dollar for dollar, in any such coin or currency which at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private debts.

As used in this resolution, the term ' Obligation' means an obligation (including every obligation of and to the United States, excepting currency) payable in money of the United States; and the term 'coin or currency' means coin or currency of the United States, including federal reserve notes and circulating notes of Federal reserve Bank and national banking associations.

ALSO SUPERSEEDED PUBLIC LAW REPLACING IT WITH PUBLIC POLICY. ELIMINATED OUR ABILITY TO PAY DEBTS, ALLOWING ONLY FOR THEIR DISCHARGE. WHEN WE USE ANY COMMERCIAL PAPER (CHECKS, DRAFTS, WARRANTS FEDERAL RESERVE NOTES) AND ACCEPT IT AS MONEY, WE SIMPLY PASS THE UNPAID DEBT ATTACHED TO THE PAPER ON TO OTHERS, BY WAY OF OUR PURCHASES AND TRANSACTIONS. THIS UNPAID DEBT, UNDER PUBLIC POLICY, NOW Crries a public liability for its collection. in other words, all debt is now public debt.
