Russia returns to Gold standard
COMEDY GOLD

The government will abolish the VAT (tax) on bullion. This Bill will go to the State Duma on March 4. Going forward - when purchasing gold bars or other precious metals from a bank, the 20% current tax on top of its value will not apply.
This is a way to ensure people can invest securely in something other than the dollar (usually people hold their cash in dollars as the ruble is volatile.)

Who put that title up? It's not the gold standard, I mean c'mon, man. Even CA has no sales tax on purchases of precious metals for CA residents in amounts over $1,500-. Ah, sorry - see it's for fun.
Not only is it not the gold standard, but they haven’t done it yet. It’s a good step for them to take, but they have a long way to go. Low quality post.
