The Creature from Jekyll Island
If by the end of the gold standard you are referring to the federal reserve act in 1913 you are correct. Thats where our problems start and if we don’t do something about it and demand a return to sound money (Gold and silver) it’s were the republic will end.
That one act in 1913effectively stole the power from the people and placed it in the hands of congress. If congress still had to apportion taxes this country would have a much different feel to it..
As a side note congress still does have to apportion taxes but the people of this once great nation have been hoodwinked into believing that everyone is now a slave and only congress can decide how much of our labor we are allowed to keep. Since no one reads the law anyway I wont go into detail here.
