Re: Spotting fake hundos
back when money was supposedly backed by all the gold in fort knox, that depended on our faith that the gold wouldn't just all get stolen in the event that the government collapsed. "backing" our currency with gold is retarded. This whole conversation is the bread and butter of end-of-the-world nutjobs, conspiracy theorists, crackpot ACists, etc.
What's gold backed by btw? You don't actually think it has "intrinsic" value, do you?
