I suppose some currencies will wind up being backed by gold, I hope we are one of them.

======================================================= Under Buy-Dung? Not a chance. Under Trump? Quite possible.

Don't count on it. In order for the US to go back on the gold standard we would have to buy $$$trillions$$$ in gold.
With what?
Borrowed money?
From whom?
The Chinese?

There's no telling what's going to transpire, but if anyone can make it happen, it would be Pres. Trump.

Personally, I'd love to know whether all the stories/rumors/online opinions re the Vatican being bankrupt -- some even claiming that immense quantities of their accumulated gold have been seized -- have any truth to them.

Good point! What worries me is I have seen little documentation on what gold we are supposed to have now. Who can prove we actually have it?
