Rather, it is meant to be an alternative for the state and local governments to put their investments into physical gold (silver) rather than the current banking system. Instead, they will crate their own system that does not charge interest or fees and does not overreach it's balance sheet. It seems as though they intend to cut out the FED banks.

The bond holder keeps that money (credit) and lends it back (credit to the state (debit) to build a road.

That vid is from 2013, the vote is just coming up now? Texas vote is coming up now. Legislature only meets every other year and this session is about to close. Video date inconsequential to subject matter, the pending legislation. Seems financial transactions done through a bullion bank would cause the FED to consider stronger backing of it's paper, same as if China backed it's currency with hard assets.

Most people have an affinity for gold over paper when afraid, but in the end, what matters is not what the money is, be it gold or paper, but what it represents, and that is the intangible of trust, of agreeing that it holds a value in the first place. Hell, maybe money could even grow on trees. [link to offbeatoregon.com] |

This piece of legislation, in short, would create a mechanism for Texas and Texans to bring their gold and silver home to Texas and store them in a Texas-based system as opposed to a Federal Reserve created system. Quoting: Hard Eight “This proposal consists of two parts – the “depository” part and the “system” part. The “depository” part … provides simply for hedging the state’s investment risk by allocating a recommended portion of state and local investment assets to physical gold and other precious metals, and housing those metals in a state-operated facility…. “But the truly game-changing aspect of this proposal … lies in the “system” part. This would be an advanced, state-owned and operated system of electronic payments and settlements, denominated in ounces of precious metals, barred from engaging in lending, leasing, speculative or derivative transactions, and always maintaining a 100% ratio of bullion reserves to account balances. At full scale, not only could it sustain state and local government operations, it could potentially sustain large swaths of the Texas economy, even in the face of a national financial or currency crisis.” Go to this link and find your Senator: "I live in your district and I want you to vote 'YES' on HB 1150 and HB 483.
