Trump seems to be taking us towards a gold standard again, he loves gold and why shouldn’t we, the world operated great up until we were taken off it.
It always seems to be that someone comes along with a bonehead idea, initiates the process and pushes it into the way things are done. And as always it proves to fail.
They even admit that the gold standard was abandoned for a system that can be manipulated.
This was the thought process then and is now.
But if we return, then one, gold becomes very valuable, and also an even playing field for all, one problem as it was in the 30’s and that was bank runs on the gold.
Good or bad I believe it’s coming.
