100% correct. the mania, as every investment mania does, has blinded policy makers to the dangers that lurk. it is actually quite funny to watch for market historians...once again, similar to every secular stock market topping period this century, a 'new era' is deemed to have arrived...even the 'old hands' have been taken in. the stock market has risen so much, it MUST mean that a new era is here,lol...

wonder why the links didn't work? they work for me. here they are again (you'll need Adobe acrobat):

Darin-since you're interested in this stuff, here's a book that I found useful and interesting (given the current economic environment):

amazon.com

It's a bit dense, but I found it readable and informative despite no advanced training in economics. It discusses the currency issues fairly thoroughly during crashes/panics throughout history. It touches on the issue of gold only tangentially however.
