Why Silver is kept artificially low versus Gold?
Silver was currency as late as 1964, and printed so on coinage as well as the US$ bill; “Siver Certificate”. Gold and Silver have been deemed money since the first men recognized the convienience of a medium of exchange that represented “real” value, not easily counterfieted or manipulated. In fact, nothing man has tried to replace gold and silver as a money standard has stuck; quite the opposite. Hundreds if not thousands of attempts by ptb and pointy headed economists to replace them have failed. Consider it a “Law of Economics”: Gold and Silver are money; nothing else.
