< D-flation, means economic contraction, not exactly a desired effect, or as I called it, tying world currencies to gold would result in either a "Sodom bed", or inflation (if gold is only a "backing of currency").> Well, there is plenty of data... got links to economic activity during gold standard and non-gold standard time periods??
