In light of recent events and for the purposes of making sure we are not just sheepishly following the crowd off a potential cliff, I shall impose this question as a devil's advocate:
Why we on GAW are certain that gold standard is going to solve all of our problems? Also why are we certain that a return to the gold standard is Q's plan?
I am fully aware of Q's "Gold will end the Fed" quote, but it does not explicitly say that the White Hats will abolish the Fed and bring us back to the Gold Standard. It is probably a simple statement of facts like saying the Sky is blue and the sun rises in the east.
Id propose unraveling your preoposition first. You seem to speak in pluralities, for " we, everyone, all etc."
As far as gold saving anything. It's a reasonable stretch for one kind of solution in a barter or exchange system. Most indicators I see is to diversify, not just dump everything into physicals like gold. Overall your devils advocate approach is very broad and using crowd speak. Not much value in answers to this.
