The gold standard only works if you are willing to give control of our currency to the gold mine owners. If they mine a lot the value goes down. If they mine a bit the value goes up. I am not willing to give that kinda power to them. It leaves me to wonder however, who we should give it to? Bernake? Paulson? The gold miners? I don't like any of the above choices.
