And printing our way out of every crisis where people act irresponsibility with credit is? There are no fucking consequences for money managers out there And therefore no semblance of personal responsibility. We just trained millions to look to the government when times get tough.
Partial backing of diverse rarities, not just gold, is a good policy.
