Govt revenues in fiat (but not legal tender for private payments) vs. govt revenues in gold.

What do you think the pros and/or cons of each are?

Gold is better

Why would gold be better? It can’t be inflated.

From whose perspective are you analyzing the situation?

@Wheylous: I’m asking which is a lesser evil from a libertarian perspective.

Thanks for replying to this thread:)

Gold. The alternative gives the state an opportunity and a temptation to inflate.

Certainly gold is better from lib persp. But governments want control. They can’t control gold. And they get to choose how they’re paid. The bastards.
