Excerpt:
" As America faces the twin threats of inflation and bank failures, three U.S. congressmen introduced a pivotal sound-money bill that would enable the Federal Reserve note “dollar” to regain stable footing for the first time in more than half a century.

Rep. Alex Mooney, R-W.Va., joined by Reps. Andy Biggs and Paul Gosar, both Arizona Republicans, introduced H.R. 2435, the Gold Standard Restoration Act, to facilitate the repegging of the volatile Federal Reserve note to a fixed weight of gold bullion.

Upon passage of H.R. 2435, the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve are given 24 months to publicly disclose all gold holdings and gold transactions, after which time the Federal Reserve note “dollar” would be formally repegged to a fixed weight of gold at its then-market price.

Federal Reserve notes would become fully redeemable for and exchangeable with gold at the new price, with the U.S. Treasury and its gold reserves backstopping Federal Reserve Banks as guarantor."

    Old saying: "Too soon old, too late smart." This is a great idea, but I figure is way too late. The damage is already done.

    "Not that it has any chance of passage" agree.

    All my life the Fed has set a target of the dollar's value predictably dropping a few pecent a year, and they've done a very good job of it. I really don't like central banks having a monopoly on money, but for far they've done an amazingly good job. So far, this is a solution looking for a problem.
    There's a good chance there will be a fiscal mini-crisis due to the huge deficit, but what we use has a medium of exchange won't solve that problem.

      If the people are this brainwashed about the purpose, goals, and performance of the federal reserve, there is no chance of a peaceful return to individual liberty.
      Read The Creature From Jekyll Island* if you actually want to understand.
