Bye Bye Gold Nonsense

[Hillary pays minimum wage]

An ideal society uses only gold.

Tell us more.

Look not only gold, but our paper money is only worth what it's backed up by in gold.  Having paper notes as legal tender has led to lots of inflation and devalued the dollar.  Now we have higher debt than what would've been under the gold standard because our paper money isn't worth as much.  It may be too late to go back to it, but it was the way to go at first.

Actually, it depends on what one values gold in.  In dollars, gold has come down considerably from its peak, but it barrels of oil, it's worth much more than five years ago.

What are the prices for gold now? If it’s over $300, I may need to invest in gold and use the proceeding to invest in water futures.
