Thank you Christopher Theodore;
That is a great start to a fascinating topic. And thank you for your poetic post too, Gregory Thomas.
Most certainly if one can speculate upon $515 being spent in taxes, they will. And I have to admit, I had not thought about the birth certificate and its product that way before.
I am more prone to think in terms of credit. A person builds credit by borrowing and paying back. The foundation of the person, his or her identity is the legal or full name on the birth certificate.
When the person needs no credit, they actually generate it for others by say, depositing $1000 in a paycheck at the bank. Their endorsement means the bank can now loan out $1100 on that deposit. Where did the extra $100 come from? That was the private credit the man or woman got from the Federal Reserve.
I still think the American Bank Note Company in the corner of the birth certificate is there in contemplation of the securities that will be floated upon the child as he or she grows up and gets a credit rating or endorses paychecks.
Regards,
David Merrill.
