What do Liberty Associates do?

Associates get the Liberty Dollar at a discount and are encouraged to use it at a profit. They simply make money by exchanging their US dollars for the new gold and silver money, and spend the new Liberty Dollar into circulation. Associates support the Liberty Dollar by simply using the new currency in everyday transactions.
