editor victoria’s comment ~ well this one rather slipped under the radar but something told me to investigate Mr. Moore. aside from working as an adviser to Trump during his campaign, he has a rather anti-federal reserve perspective on our monetary system. the most interesting to me is reading this: “In 2015, Moore expressed support for a return to the gold standard, a monetary system widely rejected by mainstream economists.” (Source)
with a gold-backed currency, who needs the Fed. Reserve?
It is my pleasure to announce that @StephenMoore, a very respected Economist, will be nominated to serve on the Fed Board. I have known Steve for a long time – and have no doubt he will be an outstanding choice!
