Following your train of thought here ; would it not be a means by which a country could put more paper into play for the needs of its population and vice-versa a country with an overflow of paper would purchase gold for safe keeping of wealth, ie stealing a 50 ton block of gold, storage, undeterred by elements ie. water damage fire etc. I need to understand on what basis new money is allowed to be printed by countries. I totally agree with your analysis of the lie as the inherent value of the metal does not change and is not equalled or replacable by any synthetic structure in a manner preservable. The euphoria attached to the metal would however result in a permanent incline if there were no means to contain same. Without the application of the theory of opposites there is no gain or true value. Theory Buy low Sell high!
