In 1932 it cost $20 to buy one ounce of gold, and it had been the same price since 1792. Today it costs $3,543.90 to buy one ounce of gold. Put another way, since 1932 over 99.4% of the value of the dollar has been destroyed by the Feral Reserveless scammers and the politicians in the District of Corruption. Put yet another way, if someone in your family had six-tenths of a cent in 1932 they could buy the same amount of goods and services that today cost you a dollar.

However much you want to End the Fed you should want it more. However soon you want it ended, you should want it sooner.

Worked in assembly automation from 1980 to 2011, as a tech the first thirteen years. Supers usually had three or four mfg cells to look after per shift, so the technician basically kept the line running. They gave me a temp one time who had nothing to contribute but belly-aching about the man and what a raw deal non-whites get every minute, everywhere, all the time. We were having a hard shift one particular night, supply issues, and short an operator, and he started in about "never got my mule and forty acres." With a fatalism Emperor Nero would have understood full well, I turned and asked him if he'd rather be sitting in the dirt with a bone through his nose. They waited until the next downturn to lay me off, but that was when I lost the job.

Worth it. Do it again.
