US Prepares For Gold Standard

Peter Schiff Recommends The Gold Standard

Path To Gold Backed Money by Jim Willie via Market Oracle

http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article20560.html Individual investors should regard the stock market behavior as evidence of wreckage steeped with great deception. No nominal gains have been registered in ten years, which means a loss in purchase power is compounded at 5% to 7% per year. Almost no real gains have been registered in 40 years. Since 2001, gold has more than quadrupled in price, almost quintupled, while shills and sheisters ply their trade on Wall Street to denigrate it. The propaganda is unending by Wall Street and the USGovt about the nettlesome nature of gold. It pays no yield? Of course it does. Ask Warren Buffet, who earned gains from writing options on silver until he misjudged the rise, was called away, and lied to shareholders about selling too early. Some total knuckleheads actually claim that gold has not kept pace against inflation. They must not comprehend its 400+% gains in the last decade. Wake up, Karl!! In fact, they must be certified morons or genuine paid shills. Gold will continue to outperform all assets, since their trading activity is too deeply intertwined with the currencies and their national debts.

The below article is an extremely well written, thoughtful and lucid article written by Hugo Salinas Price, a Mexican businessman that has argued for the necessity of Mexico to return silver to a monetary status as well as returning to the use of a gold standard. I am submitting this important piece for those that have been re-educated at the world's top economic schools and consequently disseminate thoughtless propaganda regarding the reasons for massive unemployment worldwide and today's global sovereign debt crises. I am also posting this article for the unthinkers out there that fulfill the role of the "loyal dutiful wife" (this applies to both men and women out there) and always believe only what they are instructed to believe by bankers and governments. I consider the below a MUST READ for anyone that wishes to avoid wealth destruction within the next five years as the fiat currency game of musical chairs will undoubtedly result in the world's citizens left as the odd man out, standing without a chair, when the music ends.

Hazlitt's Battle with Bretton Woods
Mises Daily: Friday, June 18, 2010 by Llewellyn H. Rockwell Jr.

From the Ludwig von Mises Institute:

"The Austrians were right" is a phrase we hear often now, and for good reason. The housing bubble and bust were called by the Austrians and, essentially, no one else. The Austrians were right about the dot com bubble and bust. The Austrians were right about the 1970s stagflation and the explosion in the price of gold after the gold window was closed.

You can tick through the issues and see that the Austrians have been right again and again throughout history: on price controls, on protectionism, on bailouts, on wars, on regulation, on prohibitions and civil liberties, and so on.

But issues concerning fiat money and the business cycle stand out because the Austrians possess unique insight. Only the Austrians have consistently warned that fiat money creates the wrong incentives for the banking industry, that central-bank manipulation of interest rates distorts the structure of production, that the combination of paper money and central banking leads to economic calamity.

"There can be no such thing as a Keynesian state on the gold standard, any more then a cocaine addict or compulsive gambler can be on a strict budget."

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

In his latest essay, Hugo Salinas Price, president of the Mexican Civic Association for Silver and a longtime GATA supporter, elaborates on a theme he has been pressing for many years: that a gold standard is vital for local production and that a world financial system in which one country alone issues the world reserve currency destroys and dislocates industry. Salinas Price's essay is the clearest and most important sort of macro-economics and implies the moral underpinnings of GATA's work. The essay is headlined "The Gold Standard: Generator and Protector of Jobs" and you can find it at the Mexican Civic Association for Silver's Internet site here:
