How is paying goldmoney.com to hold my money going to make my gasoline/corn/healthcare more affordable?

Things go in cycles - right now the "fiat money", "debt as money", "crap as money" (CDOs, etc) system is imploding. It did have a good run for a while there.

The last 5 years and probably the next 10 years it will be better to pay someone 1% to hold your gold backed currency, than to have a bank pay you X% interest while inflation is X+10%

You can do that today. Still don't see how that reduces inflation. And how long will you hold your breath for a gold backed currency?
