What is the obsession with gold?
https://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2024/09/15/what-is-the-obsession-with-gold/ Every time I post a video about money, people appear claiming only gold is money and that we must go back on the gold standard. Those saying so are economic dinosaurs who do not understand how the modern economy works and would rather we go back to the era that delivered the Great Depression precisely because of the obsession with gold. They really do need to be ignored.
