Might as well back our currency in rap 12"s</div></blockquote> <br /> gold is real money, shit like pork bellies and oil are commodities. gold may be traded as an etf, treated as a finanacial instrument like a commodity, but it's been an effective store of value for most of human history and always been the thing that societies have reverted to when fiat currencies have collapsed numerous times throughout history.</div></blockquote> <br /> Ron Paul's brand of wingnuttery is every bit as inane and insane as Lyndon LaRouche's brand. Returning to the gold standard at this point would be like basing the world economy on tulip bulbs.<br /> <br /> http://www.businessweek.com/2000/00_17/b3678084.htm
