Letter from Gerry Welch

Administration Is Missing the Point

The total value estimate of gold stored in Fort Knox is around $287.24 billion, based on current gold prices. The United States national debt is over $36 trillion and going up rapidly. The U.S. trade deficit is nearly $1 trillion. This does not include credit card debt, home owner debt and promises to sustain our failing healthcare system. The overhaul the Trump administration is missing: Start with the most egregious and work down!
