December seems to be open, how about that?

"A paper monetary standard means there are no restraints on the printing press
or on federal deficits. In 1971, M3 was $776 billion; today it stands at $8.9
trillion, an 1100% increase. Our national debt in 1971 was $408 billion; today
it stands at $6.8 trillion, a 1600% increase. Since that time, our dollar has
lost almost 80% of its purchasing power. Common sense tells us that this
process is not sustainable and something has to give. So far, no one in
Washington seems interested."
