What gives it value is FAITH. Faith in the present regime. Faith in our
fellow man. Faith in the future. That is all. It was no mistake something
potentially worthless would have words like "In God We Trust" printed on it.
That little ditty would have been removed long before school prayer if it
didn't up hold the illusion of substance. Words like "Federal" and "legal"
also lend it that air of legitimacy. You've got to hand it to them though!
I've always felt it amusing people were so worried that the president had
his finger on the atomic bomb button, totally oblivious that much fewer men
have their hand on a much more lethal instrument.
