Legal Tender Cases

Hi Eastlaw. Your help would be appreciated at the Legal Tender Cases article. An anonymous user is insisting that paper money in unconstitutional. I've tried to be as accommodating as possible. Would you please review the situation? Thanks.Ferrylodge 19:57, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for your message. If possible, I think it might be helpful if you would comment at the talk page for this article, in order to explain that statements must be backed up by sources, and that we cannot give undue weight to sources that argue against the way things have been for the past 150 years. The editor in question seems to think that the Constitution is unambiguous that paper money is forbidden, but that just ain't so.
All of the constitutional provisions that he relies on are now mentioned and linked in the article, but he wants them to be actually quoted verbatim in their entirety. Unfortunately, if we quoted all the relvant constitutional provisions in their entirety, then the article would become unwieldy, because there are so many constitutional provisions involved.Ferrylodge 20:24, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
