Ever since LBJ gave us slugs instead of quarters and dimes, we’ve had 100% fiat money.

In world history, there’s never been a transition from fiat money to real money without a disaster.

Three reforms: Abolish the Federal Reserve, abolish the direct election of Senators, abolish the income tax. Not coincidentally, all three of these blunders were imposed on the American people in 1913.

And by Progressives, what liberals want to call themselves today.

Earlier than that. FDR took us off the gold standard.

The actual disaster was going to fiat money in the first place.

All good, but now where to find a candidate for POTUS who also understands this and is willing to put it into practice?
