“As citizens complied with the new law by turning in gold”
I doubt there would be much compliance today.
Unfortuneately, I sold all mine long ago. A very long time ago. Far, far in the past. Years ago. Spent all the money. Blew much of the money on whiskey and wild women. The rest I wasted.
Unless this guy has it wrong-— Seems US government gold (a taxpayer’s asset) was transferred to the private bank called the Federal Reserve. In order to pull off this heist/bailout/transfer gold ownership within USA had to be declared illegal.
As far as I know the USG claims to have gold reserves in Fort Knox
While the Federal Reserve Bank of NY has massive gold deposits in a sub-basement. Gold of foreign nations is also held there. This gold repository was used in the plot in one of the Die Hard movies and a theft was attempted.
So at least in theory the USG and the Fed Reserve possess large amounts of gold

But hey, the conventional wisdom is that the economy just wouldn’t work if it weren’t for a central bank.
How would you survive if you were to just contract with people freely and weren’t coerced into using the federal reserve notes?
The entire monetary system of the US, and most of the entire world, is based on fraud, deceit, lies, and theft.
What is usually not mentioned is that the confiscation of gold and the re-valuing of gold were done at least six months apart.
Now, who’s gold is that, that they took, revalued the dollar by almost half, and SUPPOSEDLY is kept at Fort Knox?
It is the American citizen’s gold, that who’s!
Audit the FED, Audit Fort Knox, the filthy little thievessss.

The History of the “Money Changers”
Economists continually try and sell the public the idea that recessions or depressions are a natural part of what they call the “business cycle”.
This timeline below will prove that is simply not the case. Recessions and depressions only occur because the Central Bankers manipulate the money supply, to ensure more and more is in their hands and less and less is in the hands of the people.
Central Bankers developed out of money changers and it is with these people we pick the story up in 48 B.C. below.

There’s no farming as profitable as the farming of men, their hopes, aspirations and the protection of their families.
What a great Post!
There used to be a saying "not worth a continental," which meant that the early U.S. fiat currency was useless; maybe now there should be a saying not worth a federal reserve note as the Messiah has turned the federal reserve notes into something as worthless or more worthless than the old revolutionary continentals were.
What happened when they took all the siver out of our quarters and dimes???? I think there is alot of old buried gold coins around this country.
FDR was a criminal.
When is the last time there has been an audit of the gold reserve at Fort Knox.
