Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is giving lectures on the University Circuit attacking the proposal for the U.S. to return to a gold standard. In his contempt for honest money, Bernanke argued that government monopoly money is more valuable than gold!
In his incredulous argument Bernanke said that the strength of a gold standard is its greatest weakness because if the money supply is determined by the supply of gold, it cannot be adjusted (a.k.a. manipulated by the Fed and politicians) in response to changing economic conditions."
Thats the whole point! Our founding fathers intentionally implicitly mandated that money had to be gold or silver. That way the scoundrels couldnt rob the citizens blind, as they are doing today.
Swiss America Chairman Craig R. Smith is available to be your Talk Show interview guests to discuss Bernankes recent lectures whrein hes attempting to brainwash todays brightest business students as to the virtues of fiat money and to the follow of gold.
Smith contends that politicians and bankers have always resisted wearing the 'golden handcuffs' which our Founders thoughtfully established in the U.S. Constitution.
Cut from the same inflationary paper money cloth is Timothy Geithner, who when testifying before Congress this week was pressed by Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) about how much the debt ceiling would need to be raised to meet all of the current and long term obligations? He would not answer. So the Congressman asked would it be $20 trillion? $50 trillion? More?
Geithner again would not answer the question, but would only offer "a lot...the number would very uncomfortable. The chairman of the hearing was heard repeating Geithner's answer "Uncomfortable, uncomfortable".
Are you uncomfortable letting Craig Smith on your Talk Show to give the sober facts about unbacked paper money vs. a true gold standard? If not, give us a call.
NOTE: Craig Smith would like to make available a Special Report and DVD on this topic at no charge to your Talk Show listeners upon request.

Just continuing on the liberal mantra that gold has no intrinsic value (Ezra Klein)
Oh, so you dare to question fiat money? You dare to whisper that the Federal Reserve is neither federal nor reserve?
You sound like my kind of guy!
