The Daily Meme #358!

So, yesterday I gave you a number of alternative ways to manage a world that doesn't include a parasitical ruling class eating your children.

Which is all fine and good, but not many of you are truly in a position to implement these alternatives.
Sure, you can bring them up when the conversation allows for it, but as for something concrete that you can do today these ideas just don't fulfill that role.

Ergo, today I am going to give you something that if everybody in the country did it would certainly tank the bankster dystopia that we live in.

The federal reserve, which is neither federal, nor a reserve, buys change from the treasury at face value.
Here is the link from the fed that states this is the reality of how our money works.

This link shows the melt value of coins.
Pre-1983 pennies are worth .03usd.
Nickels are worth .067usd.
These are the two coins that the fed loses money on.
1983 and later pennies are not worth saving for their melt value.
However, every dollar's worth of coins in your possession is a dollar out the federal reserve's pocket.
More if you hoard nickels and pennies date stamped 1982 and earlier.

With this simple act you can strike a blow on the very people most responsible for the state of the union.

If you don't like how things are being managed, hoard your change.

If you have money that sits in a bank month to month never getting spent because it is for emergencies only, turn those electronic digits into nickels and the fed will lose money on the deal.

If you put them into a one of those big water bottles, and melt some wax in on them, they become more work to steal than most thieves will want to invest.
Just the weight alone will deter most folks and then having to heat that big bottle enough to melt the wax will deter all but the most dedicated of thieves.
Then, if you need the money for an emergency, you will still get their face value when you turn them back into wherever you spend them, just as if you had held them in the bank all this time.

This is really a way to help that takes little effort on your part.
