>Is POTUS saying that the world is now on the Gold Standard?
It's not.
The interpretation that it's about a literal Gold Standard financial system seems a little too obvious. I think it hint was "GS".
We are not going to be moving to a gold standard any time soon so even if we wanted to. We have too much cash and not enough gold (43:1 ration at current prices). We either need to find a lot more gold, get rid a lot of cash by paying back debt and unwinding some fractional reserve money creation. or both.
