"In the absence of the gold standard, there is no way to protect savings from confiscation through inflation. ... This is the shabby secret of the welfare statists' tirades against gold. Deficit spending is simply a scheme for the confiscation of wealth. Gold stands in the way of this insidious process. It stands as a protector of property rights. If one grasps this, one has no difficulty in understanding the statists' antagonism toward the gold standard.(1967)...Gold still represents the ultimate form of payment in the world....(May, 1999) " Alan Greenspan
"Gold is not necessary. I have no interest in gold. We will build a
strong state without an ounce of gold behind it. Anyone who sells above
the set price, let him be marched off to a concentration camp. That's
the bastion of [fiat] money." Adolf Hitler
