Back in 1971, Nixon ended the dollar’s convertibility to gold — the Nixon Shock. He told Americans their dollar would be “just as valuable tomorrow.” And technically, the next day, he was right.
But over the next decade, the dollar lost nearly all its value. Erwin Schiff — Peter Schiff’s father — warned Congress this would destroy the dollar — and he was right.
