This is the best you have? I think you're nicely illustrating how inflated our currency is. The main point is that the Federal Reserve just prints the stuff whenever congress wants to borrow money for a pet cause that suits the consortium banks. Then we have to pay them interest. Unravel that game starting with the cartel itself and let the market sort out the value of gold.
Simply letting Americans enjoy their Constitutional right to trade gold without excise taxes would sink the Federal Reserve in a decade, even if you left it alone.

Where did I say anything about our currancy?
I pointed out that your heerow’s moronic plan CAN NOT happen unless he can pull gold bars out of his ass.
Another fault of the gold standard is that the value of gold is dependant on what the market sets it at. So we go to the gold standard, what’s to stop countries from flooding the market and causing the value of gold to plummet?
