The danger we face is in believing that if the other side wins, the country is lost.
But the real danger is if we can’t see the other side’s point of view, we are lost. That is
the biggest challenge we face. Blind rage mixed with certitude is not the answer
to our problems. Nor has it ever been.
It was a national policy, the Gold Standard vs The Silver and it was/is complicated. Historically the U.S had used both gold and silver as a basis for currency but in 1873 Congress passed a law “demonetizing” silver, making gold the only standard for American currency. It was supposed to promote international trade.
