“My people perish for lack of knowledge.” – Hosea 4:6

Our Purpose:

Welcome to Saco Bay Citizens for Sound Money! Our purpose is to help citizens in the Biddeford, Saco, Old Orchard Beach and Scarborough Maine area become aware of what our U.S. Constitution has to say on the issue of sound money.

Why Become Involved With Us?

Are you tired of high prices affecting your economic well-being? Tired of seeing the cost of everything go up every year? Here’s your opportunity to help change that!

What the U.S. Constitution Says About Money:

Our U.S. Constitution clearly calls for our money to be gold and silver (and not unbacked paper money like the green script we use now):

Article I, Section 8:

• “Congress shall have Power to … coin Money, regulate the value thereof … and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures.”

• “Congress shall have Power to … provide for the Punishment of counterfeiting the Securities and current Coin of the United States.”

Article I, Section 10:

• “No State shall … make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts.”

• “No State shall … emit Bills of Credit.” (Bills of Credit = fiat money)

The Benefits:

By making yourself and your fellow citizens aware of the above-mentioned parts of the Constitution, you will:

Start reintroducing the idea to your fellow citizens that real money is precious metals-based coinage such as silver (and not unbacked paper bills like Federal Reserve Notes).

Help offset the negative effects of our current, unbacked paper U.S. Federal Reserve Note dollars on our local economy.

Start to restore ownership of the money to the people, as well as help to put a lid on rising prices … finally!

Help shield and protect the Saco Bay area economy from upcoming future economic downturns as a result of the bankers and politicians inflating the current system of unbacked paper money (i.e. Federal Reserve Notes)

Educating yourself and others with the above knowledge will do a great deal to begin restoring ownership of the money to you and all our fellow local citizens. Everybody wins! (except the politicians and bankers of course!) Help restore VALUE to our nation’s money by joining us today in this important effort!

Recommended First Step:

Withdraw some rolls of U.S. Mint One Dollar coins (Presidential, Sacagawea or Susan B. Anthony) from your bank or credit union (they come in rolls of twenty-five one dollar coins) and begin using them at local merchants for all or part of your purchases. Although composed of base metals and not precious metals, they make GREAT “conversation starters” with store staff and owners about the topic of sound money and how our Founding Fathers intended for our money to be gold and silver precious-metal coinage.
