I’d urge people who listen to start before the OP tells them to. He makes logistical points about returning to a gold standard and the effects of it. I do not agree with him, but those are legitimate points that we would need to rebut. (the effect of debts and prices when returning to gold fixed etc. yada yada)
@Smiling Dave.
There is a lot more to that argument that he makes, but nevertheless ignore his economics. He is a LaRouchian New Dealer…we all know what they think (drug war, protectionism, and welfare! also, against England) LaRouche labels everything from London as bad or imperial.
Listen to him for his geopolitical assessments.
