May I derive from your words that SPC's dixie circulation is fine as long as the SE government does not receive or spend them? So the residents of the SE will have an informal currency once Dollars are removed by their government, but the government does not have that same sort of privilege and would be considered bankrupt.

So, it's the best of both worlds. Smiley

In retrospect, it's probably even better than those parts of the FOCA were removed. Too bad it's going to be voted down. Sad

If you could derive that from his words...that would only be one vote of the court.

You're bankrupting the region. I guess that's good?

Can the Mideast bailout the region and take 50% ownership stake? There are some states I would like to pick up. Wink

Wasn't that what the opinion that you joined seemed to imply? If a further clarification will not be provided in this context I would be more than happy to bring up a case.

Well, given that the effect of the Court's ruling is to prevent the Dirty Southern government from spending any money, that means that regional government will be greatly limited. Also, this allows for even more economic freedom by allowing the money to be purely voluntary.

SPC's dixie circulation only matters insofar as private enterprise is willing to accept it, as I see things.  What exactly is private enterprise and what exactly forms the Region and its "tentacles" has not been addressed.

The Regional government can only accept and spend Atlasian currency as a legal tender (for example, the Region could not accept bananas as payment and spend bananas in funding its obligations).  Obviously, this Court cannot tell a Region when to actually spend Atlasian currency and the dictates of the FOCA are so vague that we, nor the SE government, probably have any clue as to exactly how any "removal" would be done or how this would result in an informal currency due to such removal, but I am sure the active imagination of Respondent, coupled with his lack of formal education, can make up a scenario in his mind where this occurs.

Simply put, this Court, in my view, is not going to tell the Regions how to run themselves.  If you want to change what the Southeast has done, there is ample support for at least two bodies having certain powers to do so.

I just wanted to state that I'm going to go ahead and tack the "Case Closed" marker to the thread title, and I wanted to thank the court for their ruling. Smiley
