Gold & War vs. The Fed & War

War is government at its worst. When it comes to severe destruction and loss of life, nothing tops government wars. When governments can counterfeit money, wars are exponentially worse than they would be if money were sound. Sound money (like gold and silver) act as a restraint. They cannot be counterfeited. This is the prime reason that governments hate sound money with a passion. Government works overtime to make sure their citizens never even think about sound money's return.
