The Banking Act of 1871 happened. What people debate is the language used and the implications of the language. I'm no lawyer and at best I can sound out the words in Mad magazine so I can't offer a well informed opinion. You can find the original text of the Act online and also find different legal opinions written about it. But I do find it interesting that one of the worst economic depressions in our history began in 1873, shortly after that law of 1871.

Bards lays it all out. GENIUS!!
I was told on TDW the Act of 1871 was a myth. I tend to think otherwise. Anyone have any deep knowledge into this?
