Advocates of sound money have long said, "if you don't hold it, you don't own it."
Among debt concerns, bond market jitters, and general geopolitical tension, central bankers across the globe are finally seeing the wisdom in the advice.

It was an honor to join @MattKibbe on @freethepeople to discuss broken paper money, its massive implications on debt, war, fraud, and waste, and the ongoing restoration of gold and silver as money.
The only way to bring back real affordability is to put a stop to needless foreign conflicts once and for all.

Our director @JpCortez27 went on @SmarterGameShow to explain that government edicts cannot make unsound money sound.
Gold & silver stand the test of time as sound money, not because politicians say so but because markets recognize their value and unique properties.

Anyone can understand economics without the need for an advanced degree. @JpCortez27 and I discuss how economists use jargon and equations to conceal very simple truths about the world.

From JP Cortez: In an increasingly digital world, dominated by fiat currencies on digital ledgers, why are national and state governments turning back to physical gold?

It costs 4 cents to make a penny. This is a practical move.
It is also quiet recognition that 1 cent is no longer useful as a unit of account. The penny was inflated out of existence.
Republicans and Democrats agree: it's time to retire the penny. 🤝
It costs nearly 4¢ to make a single cent, and taxpayers foot the bill. Thank you @SenGillibrand, @SenatorLankford and @RonWyden for helping me pass the Common Cents Act.
My predecessor, Sen. Mike Enzi, began this work in 2017. Proud to finish it.

Did you know SMDL Exec. Director @JpCortez27 was featured on @RonPaul's Liberty Report?
Jp joined Dr. Paul to discuss the history of gold and silver as money, how states can facilitate the use of gold and silver, and the impact that Dr. Paul's teachings have had.

A HUGE congratulations to one of the most steadfast defenders of constitutional sound money in Washington, @judyshel.
Few in DC have made the case for gold and silver the way Dr. Shelton has. Her recent book, Good as Gold, underscores the urgency for honest money. That insight now has a home in the Treasury.
Thank you for carrying this torch for so long, Dr. Shelton. Your new position is well deserved.
BREAKING NEWS:
JUDY SHELTON HAS JOINED THE U.S. TREASURY DEPARTMENT AS COUNSELOR TO THE SECRETARY.
Judy has spent decades thinking deeply about monetary policy, sound money, gold, and the architecture of the global financial system.
To now see her bringing those ideas and that experience into discussions at the highest levels of the U.S. Treasury is incredibly exciting.
My conversation with Judy on The Gold Telegraph will always be one of the highlights of my career.
Beyond her extraordinary intellect, she is thoughtful, gracious, and deeply committed to the ideas she believes in.

Congratulations, my friend.
Very well deserved. @judyshel

“This agreement represents an important step in advancing the Bank’s reserve diversification strategy. Gold continues to play a critical role as a store of value and a hedge against global uncertainty.” - @BankofNamibia Governor Ebson Uanguta
While many countries are expanding their #gold reserves, Namibia is in the process of building its own gold holdings for the first time.

F.A. Hayek argued for competition in currency. Good money is not only valuable because a government says so.
Since 2014, the Sound Money Defense League has worked to introduce and enact state and federal legislation to help Americans readopt their own gold standard.

Broken money.
Fake money is the original sin. It's the counterfeit that enables all of the other fraud, waste, and war. All the bad things the government does are downstream from its capacity to fund them.
Fix the money and you fix the root cause of many societal ills.
The #1 thing standing in the way of a freer and more prosperous society is ____________.

Thus the sound-money principle has two aspects. It is affirmative in approving the market’s choice of a commonly used medium of exchange. It is negative in obstructing the government’s propensity to meddle with the currency system.
