Like other mined minerals, gold is a finite resource. Most of the largest gold mines in theworld will be stripped within less than a century. So, the United States should not return tothe gold standard.
Adding which statement will help the listeners follow the passage better?
(1 point)
More gold would have to be obtained to produce more currency under a gold standard, so gold’s
market price would rise, and more gold would be mined.
The United States was on the gold standard until 1971, and since then unemployment rates have
risen and average incomes have remained stagnant.
It's important for the Federal Reserve to be able to control the amount of currency available in order
to better secure the country against a recession.
Returning to the gold standard would limit the amount of money in circulation to the amount of gold
available, and if gold ran out, that could cause problems.
