The Gold Standard stabilized the US economy for 100s of years.
Since the US has been off the Gold Standard, the dollar's decline has been catastrophic while gold's value has risen to stratospheric heights.
The economy is as shaky as it's ever been and will be until the fantasies of over-zealous, so-called “economic experts” are finally brought down to earth and our US currency is based on more than a bureaucrat’s whim.
Gold is a tangible measure of a citizen's worth, the reward for his (or her) labor, a commodity that can be admired, exchanged, and kept safe as protection against the forces of corruption and inflation.
We petition a return to the Gold Standard to restore balance to the US economy and stability to our shakey financial system.
