Tyranny 101: So What's Wrong With Minting Coins?

SEE HERE There is something wrong, very wrong, in the country when a mint that is minting coins that are not legal tender but can be used by people to barter (can't they use anything at all to barter with?) are attacked as counterfeiters. Counterfeiting what? — one might reasonably ask? Nothing the government makes is worth anything except the trust and good faith of the government which is increasingly looking like it isn't worth too much.
