Tying the ability to increase the money supply to a metal we have to dig out of the ground is ridiculous. >near unlimited government credit Really? How do we get some?

Nothing else matters, including debt. But, we live in a world where people want to be rich, but also don't want to use resources, or build, or manufacture things, or run an empire. It's contradictory, and we are starting to see the effects.
