Čo ak by dolár bol 100% chránený zlatom

USA má vo svojom finančnom systéme asi US$18 biliónov. Ak by sa vláda rozhodla zabrániť rastu ďalšej inflácie 100% ochranou dolára zlatom (USA oficiálne vlastnia 261 mil. uncí), tak matematicky by sa cena zlata dostala na US$68,966/oz. Cena striebra pri pomere 10:1 by sa tým pádom dostala k úrovni US$7000/oz.

The USA has about $18 trillion of cash, savings, and short term bonds in the banking system, which can also be expressed as $18,000 billion, $18,000,000 million, or $18,000,000,000,000 dollars.

But let's say the Tea Party wins a full sweep of both houses of congress and we get Ron Paul as president, and let's assume that instead of trying to return to the gold standard, he tries to simply prevent runaway inflation with full 100% gold backing all dollars in all US bank accounts. It's a very simple calculation $18 trillion divided by 261 million oz. of official US gold = $68,966/oz. Given the previous calculations, silver could hit a 10 to 1 ratio to gold, which would be about $7,000/oz. This is what the gold and silver prices "should" be, given the givens of honesty, and living up to the basic pledge of FDIC "government" insurance on all bank accounts.

Ah, but finally, many people reasonably expect that the US has already sold off a lot of the official gold to protect and defend the dollar at current low gold prices, which is more consistent with government reality and stupidity and rising gold prices. In that event, the dollar is like burnt toast, and there will be no stopping the coming runaway gold price increases.

The reality is that we live in an age of deception, because the dollar is a deception.
