By J H Tingman and John H. Tingman

Book Overview

""That Demon Gold Which Is Destroying The United States"" is a book written by John H. Tingman and published in 1896. The book is a critique of the gold standard, which was the monetary system in the United States at the time. Tingman argues that the gold standard is responsible for the economic problems facing the country, including unemployment, poverty, and inequality. He believes that the gold standard benefits only the wealthy and powerful, while hurting the poor and working classes. Tingman suggests that the United States should abandon the gold standard and adopt a system based on silver or paper currency. The book is a passionate call to action for Americans to recognize the dangers of the gold standard and work towards a more just and equitable economic system.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
