Maybe the gold standard had the right idea then, or at least a more right idea than we currently have. When your head has been underwater for half a century, maybe it's time to accept that the water isn't really that deep and you've been swimming the wrong direction all along.

And I don't know how long we're going to keep going before we all admit that it is necessary, but I think I am ready to admit that it is necessary.
