Printing money was not a good idea in the past – better to bet on gold

The first prolonged and widespread financial crisis in the United States led to a general collapse of the American economy. This continued until 1821. The Panic of 1819 was subsequently the transition from colonial trading status to an independent economy. The market situation after the Napoleonic Wars combined with the enormous issue of paper money.

The Second Bank of the United States was involved in inflationary practices. To avoid the impending dilemma, this bank severely restricted lending. State banks did not issue gold coins from their reserves. There was too much paper money and too little gold. Farms and commercial properties were burdened with high mortgages and the state banks started foreclosures. The result was a financial panic, bankruptcies and mass unemployment. Many Americans no longer believed that central bankers and politicians wanted to fight inflation. The amount of paper money increased enormously, and banknotes quickly lost value.

The banks had therefore granted loans without regard to the available gold reserves. The problem of paper money still exists today. Since the financial crisis of 2008, the Fed has created almost nine trillion US dollars out of thin air through quantitative easing alone. The politician Thomas Jefferson, who was responsible for writing the Declaration of Independence in 1776, warned against this development at the time. Even today, gold is the real money, and investors should remember this and perhaps take a look at the stocks of gold companies.
