 ah i see you've read Senator Ron Paul's book "End the Fed" :)

 unfortunately, my take on his recommendations [return to the gold
standard] is that it's just far too late.  the financial systems are
just too far gone, and the only way to keep things looking "normal" is
to continue to string out and print out more and more money on the
world's reserve currency [the USD].  as it's the world's reserve
currency and pretty much every other currency is pegged to it, this
hidden policy of hyper-inflation isn't so noticeable, because every
*other* currency is also running hyper-inflation at the same rate.
but - if that ever stops, the whole system goes to shit.
