I don't usually pay attention to the happenings of our government. However, I have always been a firm backer of a gold-backed or some other financial system that is backed by substance. What we have now was destined to fail and it has, not once, but multiple times. Before, it was cyclical and would always recover.
"Faith is the great cop-out, the great excuse to evade the need to think and evaluate evidence. Faith is belief in spite of, even perhaps because of, the lack of evidence." -- Richard Dawkins
