Default If the Gold standard came back ...

I'm still learning this reading up on the GS subject but if it did come back, what would happen to housing prices and the stock market ? Would there be less $ in the economy ? Would it hurt it at first or no ? Would prices of goods drop to what they were pre 1933? Today's dollar is worth 4 cents in 1933. Would your house basically not go up in value or would it go up just a tad ?

If the gold standard came back I would move to Alaska and start panhandling cause it would be like finding dollar bills in the ground.

Tornado,

I wanted to let you know that I will try to post some thoughts on inhalation and the gold standard when I get back from DC and have time and more than a phone to type on.
