Every "act" of CONgress since then purporting to change the "dollar" is a fraud is it not? The only way the definition of "dollar" can be changed is via amendment to the constitution. Am I right or wrong?
See section 8 of Article One of the United States Constitutionwiki:

To coin money, regulate the value thereof, and of foreign coin, and fix the standard of weights and measures;
A 'dollar' is a unit of measure. It is definitely within the powers of Congress to change the definition of the dollar.

And while the Constitution grants to US Congress the power to define the dollar, the dollar is not defined within the US Consitution. The definition of the dollar is defined through acts of Congress. Therefore, no amendment to the Consitution is needed to meddle with the definition of the dollar.
