    Great example. Mr Harding understood the usual recession
    following a major conflict could be ameliorated and so he
    cut Federal taxes dramatically and fired nearly half of
    Federal employees. The sharp short 1919~1920 recession was
    stopped in 1921 and the country entered a dramatic growth era.

    Britain struggled to maintain the Sterling/Gold rate and
    suffered horribly, as did much of the rest of Europe.

    And this morning I read - Traders bullish on gold at $4,000 in 3-5
    years...
    Apparently due to the recent lose of confidence in the dollar.

    Massive inflation will do that.
