Or just google HR6690

Doubt it will ever make it out of committee but interesting to discuss.

My bill will not put America on the gold standard, like we had in the early part of the 20th Century. Under the old gold standard, gold was money. Limiting the supply of money to the supply of gold was a huge mistake. It was the basic error that caused the Great Depression.

Fail. The Fed caused the Great Depresssion.
