Perhaps the most convincing evidence of the irrelevance of truth can be found by examining politics -- if you've got a strong stomach. It is simply true that for a state to make anything other than gold and silver coin a legal tender is against the law. Period. The Constitution gives the states no options in the matter. The legislators in every state take oaths to uphold the Constitution, yet disregard it entirely in this obvious and undeniable respect. Doesn't the truth of their perfidy matter? Do voters know -- and if so, do they care? In truth, the United States cannot go to war absent a declaration of war from Congress -- but it has been doing it repeatedly now for years. Is the truth politically inexpedient? That's probably a rhetorical question...
