Nope. He who tenders makes the object money. He who accepts the money has merely agreed to accept what the offerer has put forth.
If you write up a promissory note and mail it to me, did I just "make" the note money? I don't think so. Did you make it money and tender it? I think so.

There must be agreement duffus! Just because I tender something does not make it money. It must be in conformity to law. FRNs are not money and I must agree that they are . The statutes are clear that FRNs are obligations.
Like I said previously, you can't argue with ignorance.

Please cite the statutes that make clear that FRNs are obligations.

Touche' Dorkenbutt;
Albeit you stir up a little homophobia with that handle.
Here is the issue that Shoonra will avoid - the definition of lawful money.

The reason she avoids it is because it gets to the heart of the obligations. Who is obligated? You or the US? Notes are notes and they are clearly defined in both the US Code and according to AmJur at that. No problem there.
Here is where the slight of hand is played. Federal Reserve Bank Notes are obviously stock certificates for the Fed. As with the remedy for elastic currency in full force and effect today. Read it attached and see that is for shareholders - what we call banks. Now look carefully and see that Federal Reserve Bank Notes were retired in 1945.

Federal Reserve Bank Notes,
National Currency
Identical to National Banks Notes in form and function but issued by Federal Reserve Banks, these notes were retired in 1945.

The stock certificates we carry today called Federal Reserve Notes are still the stock certificates and if you have any in your pocket, you are a banker vested in the Fed. That is what the endorsement is all about on the backside of your paycheck. Endorsement of private credit - making you the bond - therefore the obligation is removed from the US because you are not dealing in lawful money - you are dealing in Fed credit.

So as I was asking which no one seems to even attempted to answer,
If a FRN is an obligation then why is not listed as a loss on a tax return. Should it not count as a loss. And is not possession of the note the proof that debt was discharged and the loss is still on the books?
After the loss is declared then the note has simply allowed for you to redeem the debtor’s debt as a tax write off. Then you have been paid once you claim the write off. You get paid when the FRB redeems their note. Now you have income because you also can discharge your debts with the notes.
So it seems to me that “income” only happens when the acceptance of notes is used as a tax write off.

I understand what you are saying, but it won't work the real world for political reasons. If you were allowed to do this the cat would be out of the bag. There are better ways to skin this cat. If you want to PM me I will tell you how to contact me and I can share with you.
David thanks for the complement regarding my handle. I really got as laugh out of it.

And it really does work in the real world, according to many. However what I want to see is just one Treasury Check for the amount on a redeemed letter of credit. When I see that I will be convinced.
The obligation is called credit and cannot be taxed any more than credit can. I think that is why you keep asking if it is tax deductible. And that is why you keep missing the point in my opinion. Credit (obligations of the US) are not taxable. That is why they call it public money.

While it is in credit form it is not taxable. That is what that clause is about.
When filing a Libel in Review against an IRS agent one simply writes "Redeemed in lawful money pursuant to Title 12 U.S.C. §411" above the signature:

IMHO this is incorrect. There is no such thing as non-negotiable FRNs, but there are non-redeemable FRNs (see above post re Title 12 USC 411).
Instead of: "DEPOSITED FOR CREDIT ON ACCOUNT OR REDEEMED IN NON-NEGOTIABLE FEDERAL RESERVE NOTES OF EQUAL VALUE"
The correct endorsement is: "Deposited for credit on account or exchanged for non-redeemable federal notes."
I have been told that attorneys have told banks to close accounts with the wording "NON-NEGOTIABLE" in the endorsement.
