If they can not force me to pay my debts what would this do to the coun- try? How could the government work if it did not have any money to operate on? I would also like to know if the federal government can force me to pay my debts in other then gold and silver coin issued by the Congress? If a man is free and acts that way why do we think he is crazy? Dave.
