Dr. Paul is a great guy, but, he will never get enough popularity with cutting spending and the gold standard. It says over and over again less, less, less...we don't have enough. This is an old money view that no longer applies.
State owned banks increase the money supply in their own state and weaken the national banking system that the politicians in Washington rely on. Money is a commodity, not something that relies on gold for value. The gold standard has been a swindle from the start.
It does apply if you look at our debt it didn't start to sky rocket until 1971 when we came off the gold standard. Also when the dollar crashes as it will soon if major changes are not made, I can't even say how bad it will be, martial law, record arrest, blood in the streets, people starving, it will be bad. The British experienced this back in the 70's started in 1967 with your very thinking. Gold standard is not an old or out dated thing. No bank will loan you money on a house without putting the house up for collateral. So bank will not loan money to you on faith. So how can anyone issue money and say its worth anything w/o collateral behind it. What you are saying never has worked before in history and the end results have always been the same.
