pvn,

Can you or some other Liberty dollar type currency supporter tell me why one would risk holding such certificates, that seem to be at risk from the US gov't, instead of just holding gold? While obviously paper or e-currency *if it is safe* (or more worthy than fiat currency), is more convenient, surely one can keep the bulk of such holdings in safe deposit boxes.

I never owned any money through liberty dollars, but I scanned over their site a few times, it looked like they were setting up agreements with stores/chains where they would accept liberty dollars in exchange for goods. This would be pretty good if you could have 100% of your money in metals instead of having to keep X% for your monthly nut in US$.
