Hi Richard. The threads anti gold poster said in a response to you.
......" Just like all of that worthless paper failed back in 1929, despite the fact that it was backed by gold.'.......
I could well be wrong but I thought that all that paper failed because
the printers of all that paper printed way beyond the value of the gold backing. This made them look dishonest so they eventually get rid of the gold backing??
