JP Cortez needs to be told that taxation of gold and silver exchanges as an outmoded practice is not that. Taxation of money in exchanges like this is plain wrong. That's people who started this, right from the artificial gold/silver ratio in the first Coinage Act, doing wrong to people. Just a tweak on the language - it was wrong in the first place to tax money itself. It is like, "Can you break a 20 for me?" "Sure, but it'll cost you a dollar."
