Today is the 88th anniversary of Executive Order 6102, signed by
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, "forbidding the hoarding of gold
coin, gold bullion, and gold certificates within the continental
United States."
It would be a crime for Americans to hold gold for over forty years
when President Gerald Ford reversed the order in 1974.
This episode has several lessons for the current financial
environment, particularly given the acceleration of tyranny-by-expert
rule that has taken over much of the worst this past year.
The same playbook is being increasingly used to target Bitcoin and
other cryptocurrencies that are beyond the reach of the state.
