Dick Nixon

Harry Dent says “gold will get up to $2300 and that’s it” … anyone using their “God given brains” can see on the chart above that $2300 is the price of gold back in 1973 (just a few years after that “Dick” Nixon took us off the gold standard) when gold just began gold's rally … not only does Harry need to tighten a screw but Harry Dent needs some work to remove the “dent” in Harry Dent's head!!

Well, good old Richard Nixon took us off the gold standard, and America had the reserved currency of the world and still does at least for the time being, but when we came off the gold standard, we started to see a real and a very significant and a rather quick, if you look at the gold standard over the course of a short-term of history, destruction of the value of our dollar.

Kissinger and Nixon

So, under orders from their Illuminist masters, Kissinger and Nixon took us totally off the gold standard, and instead backed the dollar with oil, which was much more plentiful and which had a far greater overall pool of value that could not be exhausted as quickly as might have occurred with the comparatively tiny gold market.
