Please briefly summarize this news article:
America’s default on its debt is inevitable
The U.S. government defaulted after the Revolutionary War, and it defaulted at intervals thereafter. Moreover, on the authority of the chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, the government means to keep right on shirking, dodging or trimming, if not legally defaulting.
Default means to not pay as promised, and politics may interrupt the timely service of the government’s debts. The consequences of such a disruption could — as everyone knows by now — set Wall Street on its ear. But after the various branches of government resume talking and investors have collected themselves, the Treasury will have no trouble finding the necessary billions with which to pay its bills. The Federal Reserve can materialize the scrip on a computer screen.
Things were very different when America owed the kind of dollars that couldn’t just be whistled into existence. By 1790, the new republic was in arrears on $11,710,000 in foreign debt. These were obligations payable in gold and silver. Alexander Hamilton, the first secretary of the Treasury, duly paid them. In doing so, he cured a default.
Hamilton’s dollar was defined as a little less than 1/20 of an ounce of gold. So were those of his successors, all the way up to the administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt. But in the whirlwind of the “first hundred days” of the New Deal, the dollar came in for redefinition. The country needed a cheaper and more abundant currency, FDR said. By and by, the dollar’s value was reduced to 1/35 of an ounce of gold.
By any fair definition, this was another default. Creditors both domestic and foreign had lent dollars weighing just what the Founders had said they should weigh. They expected to be repaid in identical money.
Language to this effect — a “gold clause” — was standard in debt contracts of the time, including instruments binding the Treasury. But Congress resolved to abrogate those contracts, and in 1935 the Supreme Court upheld Congress.
The “American default,” as this piece of domestic stimulus was known in foreign parts , provoked condemnation in the City of London. “One of the most egregious defaults in history,” judged the London Financial News. “For repudiation of the gold clause is nothing less than that. The plea that recent developments have created abnormal circumstances is wholly irrelevant. It was precisely against such circumstances that the gold clause was designed to safeguard bondholders.”
The lighter Roosevelt dollar did service until 1971, when President Richard M. Nixon lightened it again. In fact, Nixon allowed it to float. No longer was the value of the greenback defined in law as a particular weight of gold or silver. It became what it looked like: a piece of paper.
Yet the U.S. government continued to find trusting creditors. Since the Nixon default, the public’s holdings of the federal debt have climbed from $303 billion to $11.9 trillion. | Over the past 80 years, policymakers have drained money of its ability to honestly measure anything. | 2 | Flan2021 | newsroom:1.0.0 | zs_noopt |

Prince Andrew joins Stephen Hawking and Sir Tim Berners-Lee as a fellow. Dissenters are angry over their new fellow's lack of scientific background. Critics say 'yes only' ballot meant they had no way to stop him being chosen.
Write an article based on these highlights. | 'Colourful past': Prince Andrew has been controversially elected to the fellowship of the Royal Society. Founded in 1660, the Royal Society brings together luminaries of the scientific world. The cosmologist Stephen Hawking, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the internet, and Sir John Sulston, who oversaw the human genome project, are among its current fellows. Now they have been joined by someone with a rather less distinguished scientific background. Prince Andrew, who gained six O-levels and three A-levels (in English, history and politics) before going to the Royal Naval College, Dartmouth, has been elected a fellow. But his selection to the prestigious role has caused a revolt at the society. Critics have highlighted his 'over-colourful past', and lack of a scientific background. They have told Royal Society president Sir Paul Nurse they oppose the choice of the Duke and have also questioned the validity of the election. Rebels claim the use of ballot papers that carried only a Yes box meant the only way to vote against the Duke was to spoil it, so they had no way of preventing him being chosen. But the society claims fellows were offered advice on how to vote against. Results of the ballot announced on Friday showed he won the role with votes from only 11 per cent of the electorate, with a huge number of abstentions. Only 147 fellows out of some 1,300 had voted for the prince with 24 spoilt papers against. Some 1,128 fellows abstained. The rebellion is being led by David Colquhoun, a society fellow and professor of pharmacology at University College London. 'The Royal Society was founded to advocate the idea that science is what matters, not deference to authority,' he said. 'The exception to that seems to be deference to “royal blood”, but it is taking deference too far to elect Prince Andrew.' Giants of science: Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web, is a fellow of the Royal Society. Prof Colquhoun highlighted some. controversial aspects of the Duke's 'over-colourful past' including the. sale of his former home, Sunninghill Park, to Timur Kulibayev, the. son-in-law of the Kazakh president, for £3million above the £12million. asking price. The Duke was nominated by the. society's ruling council. Last night a spokesman for the society said. Prof Colquhoun and other critics were 'in a minority'. Bill Hartnett said: 'The Duke was. nominated because of the huge support he has shown to British scientists. and the development of British science. 'The Duke has been very supportive of. young British scientists, hosting events and attending events at the. society, and he has been instrumental in bridging the gap between. academic science in Britain and British industry.' Prince Andrew joins his father Prince. Philip, siblings Prince Charles and Princess Anne and nephew Prince. William as royal fellows. The Queen is the society's patron. Mr Hartnett added: 'We have a very strong link with the Royal Family. That is why we are the Royal Society.' Great mind: Sir John Sulston's work on mapping the human genome has made him a champion of science and a fellow of the Royal Society. | 9 | Flan2021 | cnn_dailymail:3.4.0 | zs_noopt |
