Excellent article. Prior to 1971 was there even a need for CPI or was gold just a stable measure? Something you could get paid in and the average person didn't question it's value or denomination because it would simply retain value. Now I feel like people are waking up to the debasement but it's decades too late and the thieves are already sailing away on their mega yachts.

They confiscated all Americans' gold in 1933. From '33 to '71 only foreign central banks could trade dollars for gold. In the mid-1960s they repudiated silver certificates and removed silver from our coins.
