A ‘Unique’ Form of ‘Terrorism’

Submitted by Tom, Mar 21, 2011 14:13

Assigning 'real value' to gold or silver is just as arbitrary as assigning it to fiat currency. Precious metals are commodities, and the price of gold and silver has risen relative to any other good someone would buy, so saying that the dollar has lost so much value by saying it can buy much less gold or silver than before is misleading and incorrect.
