What?
Go read some freakin history man, wow... the gold rush created a huge movement of people, it created an entire new economy of people buying everything they needed, new banks/cities created, more people with time to invent, money to buy supplies, it created new technology, new wealth, new business... this all sparked investments in companies, bonds, which exploded in growth with industrial growth and a ton of other crap. It funded/created the need for the railway system across the Country, which laid out communication's across the Country. The 1800's industrial growth, spiked, after the main gold rush. Gold supplied our eco during the 1800's, it rebuilt us, the rush's helped greatly in tons of ways - and bad in many as well.
Bah... just the fact that it moved people, is reason alone.
Now.... would you like to actually inject with some knowledge or do we get blessed with more morning coffee spit up?
