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?

Oh please, clown.
Last time you pretended to know something I rubbed your nose in what you didn't know about the Clinton tax hikes.
Run along and find a link that says the gold rush was the cause of the boom times of 1900.
Dope
