If you really believe this could be a significant effect, explain. I don't get it. Gold mining, I would think, represents a very, very small part of the deployment of economic resources overall. >>One of the things he seemed to say was that the increase in supply of gold could artificially restrain economic growth below it's sustainable level, resulting in a smaller economic pie. This must be a well known position, as I shared the same thought. This isn't an indictment of gold, just a caveat of a gold backed currency. <<
