@Zeb @shortstories @Tfmonkey @VeganMGTOW @white_male Tell me if you fellas know, what would happen if a larger foreign entity started hoarding your nation's currency if it was 1:1 backed by physical gold/silver? At what point would the effects be noticed? Suppose they used a note or something else impervious to forgery (humor me), but the guarantee was there and ledgered. What would happen to that nation and its stability? Would they or would they not create an alternative currency out of necessity? Could they actually print new notes if existing notes were lost?
