Financial wealth is subject to the labor that produces.
We've grown to accept something irrelevant to this basic fact.
If Gold were a standard than the cost of production would be the underlying driver to value.
That cost would be human; the labor to extract oil for energy, to manufacture generation, to build/engineer the mechanics to mine the gold.
Essentially, we value or currency with the integrity of the nation on the paper we print.
That integrity is human. It is the population. It is the guarantee of every individual citizen of that nation.
When this simple fact is apparent to the unwashed masses that labor to support our currency ........
That would be empowering!
