RE: Daily Dose of Sultpapper 05/10/18 > Yesterday was 85 years and no one noticed… bank holiday.

Wow, that's pretty terrible that they confiscated gold. At that point were we on the gold standard? I don't think they do that today though, but I guess they don't need to ha.....

Yes. we were on the gold standard. Technically we still are but you would never know it because we are still under the "national emergency" and the constitution is suspended. Gold coin is the only LAWFUL money of the United States of America. So they get around that by using "legal tender" . There is as huge difference between LAWFUL and LEGAL which I won't go into right now or this reply will longer than the daily dose that prompted it.
