"Counterpoint: The gold standard was too inflexible, and the average citizen suffers when the government can't give the markets more fuel in the form of money."

Fed Chairmen know that Paul is right, they just cannot admit it in public while on the job.

Check Greenspan out in this recent video (very pro gold standard):

I noticed this video as well, and I was quite amused to see Greenspan saying this stuff. I haven't completely researched him, but from what I understand, before he became head of the fed, he was the kind of guy that didn't believe in national banks, and thought they were a bad idea.

Greenspan says this while a bunch of the international banking crooks pound their fists on the table at him.

The only reason I can give for these kind of comments is --- he believes in god and some kind of religion that says confession can prevent him from going to hell. But no question whatsoever, he deserves to go straight to hell, do not pass go, do not collect $200 in federal reserve notes (much less silver certificates!).
