Hard to believe you’re American AND a veteran, with such thinking. 3rd world if we stayed on the petro dollar… Or if we go to a crypto buck. What backs either ?

If we stayed on the gold standard while the rest of the world went off, then we would probably be a 3rd world country.
208 $20 dollar bills or One Gold Eagle from West Point ?
Or No mint mark will get you a common eagle piece for a little more than 167 $20 notes plus some change. If paper pushers can’t see the gold standard in effect, far be it from me to point it out any more.

We have. That is why there is a 37 trillion-and rising-national debt along with the elephant in the room which is ignored by most, an unfunded liabilities tab in the quadrillions!

While both seem to have no limit, dollars and promised dollars (debt) are two different animals
No Way Out: Stimulus and Money Printing Are the Only Path Left
Anybody wanting to see how a Gold Standard works can check out the nominal or real GDPs of European Countries from the South that are tied to the Euro.
Gold would never work as money unless the gold price was unpegged to a fixed dollar price. Gold needs to rise in price to absorb the productivity gains. Instead of introducing more money into the economy to accommodate economic growth, the money itself grows in value. This allows deflation in goods and services and inflation in the money itself.

The constitution has not changed. Silver and gold is lawful money. It doesn’t matter how corrupt things are.
