That's the key. Wild swings in prices make money planning impossible, so congress has to "coin money and regulate the value". That's what yesterday's rate decision from the FOMC was all about, and congress is doing a much better job of 'regulating the value' using the FOMC than they did with gold.
Look, I understand that their are those who HATE gold.
There are those who worship the FED. Worship FIAT.
I am sick of how they steal from people like me and plenty of other Freepers.
I am an average person with average life who just wants to see my daughter not be a debt slave for the rest of her life to hold up a system of usury.
And that is what we have now, a system of usury that enslaves the younger generation into debt. A pox on the FED and a pox on CONgress and a pox on the TBTF banks.
