I thought we went through this nonsense about gold and silver coins
already.  The Constitution says that states can only authorize gold
and silver coins as money.  However, this would only be in the absence
of a pre-emptive national system imposed by Congress, which is under
no such restriction.  Try reading the Consititution on this point.
