🚨THE BIGGEST LIE IN THE HISTORY OF MONEY
Paper money was never meant to be money.
It was a receipt.
You deposit gold in a bank.
The bank gives you a bill that says:
"This can be exchanged for X amount of gold."
That was it.
The paper had no value.
The gold did.
The paper only facilitated trade.
This system worked for centuries.
The British pound.
The French franc.
The US dollar.
All backed by something real.
Then governments noticed something dangerous.
If people trust in paper,
they don’t come to ask for gold.
So they printed a little more than they had.
Then a little more.
Then much more.
And when too many people started to ask questions,
they didn’t fix the problem.
They closed the gold window.
It was supposed to be temporary.
That was 55 years ago.
Today, the dollar is backed by nothing but trust.
And that trust has silently robbed you of 97% of your purchasing power.
The receipt became the money.
Promises replaced assets.
And "value" became something that no one is obligated to honor.
Modern money is not broken by accident.
It works exactly as it was designed.
