<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 713548, member: 3011&quot;]Regarding the first statement, dollars and euros and francs and yen and yuan are not maintained in a specific ratio of 1 to1, but the currency markets make the conversion easy and transparent for international commerce.&nbsp; I do this all the time at work and it only takes a phone call to the bank to make the conversion.&nbsp; It would be no different.</p><p><br /></p><p>Regarding the second, this is true just as currencies move in relation to each other today.&nbsp; The US dollar used to buy 400 yen and now it buys about 90 -- a 78% decline.&nbsp; Similar declines occurred in other currencies.&nbsp; But over the very long term, measured in multiple decades, do you think gold/silver money would do worse than that?&nbsp; Would the expected change be more than we have already experienced in the past?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
