we have actually been through this fiat/gold thing on the forum and i am not really keen on that "debate" (perhaps matthew will chime in here). what i fail to see is the connection to green new deal, which you preface everything by. is your point that everything is so f*cked up in terms of economics that there is no point doing anything until we go back to a gold standard? there would be a logic in that, but it means that we can't really talk in depth about much else.
if we are going to speak only of core economics, then i'd say that wealth inequality is the far, far greater problem that seems oblivious to the currency standards we adopt.
