re: #236 Targetpractice

So a gold standard and price controls. It’s like the man is reading the Nixon playbook and saying “This is some good shit!”

Wait a sec: didn’t Nixon take the country off the gold standard in 1971? Since, IIRC, it was messing up the economy with few positives except to enrich speculators*?

And does Congress have any say in this?

* probably Trump’s principal motivation in any case
