The return to a gold monetary standard has been a long-term dream of the far-right and their corporate backers. It was one of the central aims of the 1933 coup attempt which was diaried here after a recent BBC documentary on the subject revealed Bush family involvement. It has since been supported by the John Birch society, the various far-right armed militia movements that became resurgent in the 1990's (thanks in part to virulent anti-Clinton, anti-government propaganda funded by wealthy right-wing dynasties, warning followers to prepare for catastrophic economic collapse), and Alan Greenspan (in a paper published by his friend Ayn Rand).
