Patrick, why is this "redeeming" word so important?
I think Robert Ziegler and Patrick have both dealt with redemption. Redemption is important, and distinct from exchange.
Or maybe you're saying it is illegal (now) for people to own gold in USA (so, they can't exchange it)?!
The event which Patrick was discussing did, in fact, involve outlawing private ownership of gold, yes. It was, in fact, illegal for people to own gold in the USA from 1933 to 1976 or so. It was President Roosevelt's executive order which made it illegal to own gold and President Ford's executive order that undid this action.
You should read more Thucydides.
