    He led the charge to get the US off the gold standard, which many regard as a bad move because it was. And this hasn’t been reversed or adjusted since, which is why it is linked to this particular dipshit.

      FDR pulled us off gold in 1933 after a bunch of bank failures, Nixon officially ended it in 1971.

      Neither were bad moves.

        Oops, Nixon my bad. I confuse lying shitstains sometimes.

        Glad average wages in the US didn’t massively stagnate starting in the early 1970s. If they had, the connection would be hard to argue against.

      It was neither Reagan nor a bad move, and goldbugs are living in the 19th century, drinking too much laudanum for their own good.
