  First you're assuming I'm a gold bug : I'm not. Second, the person who looks like an absolute ass in this video is not who you think. Third, there are a lot more house sessions where Ron Paul is giving various heads of the fed, including Bernanke, a healthy dose of reality check. They're all really worth watching, thaanks for pointing them out. Finally: the only point I was trying to make is that fiat currency have been systematically used throughout history by governments to milk their citizenry without them noticing. The USD and the feds are following a pattern that has existed since the Romans[1]: debasing currency to hide their incompetence at managing budgets. The actual implementation vary through history, becoming increasingly sophisticated with time: the Romans slowly decreased the amount of silver in their coins hoping no one would notice. The USG uses quantitative easing, which is much less noticeable by John Does in the street.
