    Hi!

    My question is why did President Roosevelt issue an executive order removing the right, prohibiting ownership of gold bullion and gold coins in April of 1933?

    Thanks,
    Windy

    For political reasons, arising from economic theories about how to deal with the depression in which the entire world was mired. Some people agree, and some disagree with those reasons..

    This is a proper subject for a thread in the Politics, Religion and World Events forum.
