I am a big proponent of sound money.
However, we all need to do our research better.
It has become clear to me that a gold standard is the WRONG way to go because the central banks and government control the vast majority of the worlds
gold reserves.
That means easy manipulation of the markets by private bankers.
The proper solution is a silver standard or mixed metals standard.
Either is acceptable and both are constitutional.
Just remember, silver is king.
5 times more prolific means its 5 times harder to control the markets - and the central banks don't own the worlds reserves.
Competing private currencies backed by silver and gold would be the ideal solution because there is no way to manipulate the currency markets by
government.
