Gold, the Dollar, and the Federal Reserve and the Quest for Economic Stability and Prosperity
A recent news article entitled The Scandal of the Dollar asked,“Who’s going to answer for the collapse in the value of the greenback to an all-time record low of less than a 4,600th of an ounce of gold?”
Join us as Dr. Judy Shelton shares her thoughts on Gold, the U.S Dollar, and the Federal Reserve, and her innovative proposal to bolster our beleaguered currency.
Dr. Shelton is a monetary economist who specializes in global finance and monetary issues and a keen Fed observer. She was even nominated to serve as a governor on the Federal Reserve Board in 2020.
Drawing from her latest book, Good as Gold: How to Unleash the Power of Sound Money, Dr. Shelton explores the benefits of gold to ensure U.S. Dollar integrity and price stability, the foundation for economic fairness, affordability, and prosperity for all citizens. The discussion may also explore how successful Federal Reserve monetary policy actually has been in promoting these goals.
