We are constantly in a state of emergency and have been since 1933.

"Senate Report 93-549 was a document issued by the "Special Committee on the Termination of the National Emergency" of the 93rd Congress (Hence the "93" in the name) (1973 to 1975). Its purpose was to discuss and address the 40 year long state of emergency that had been in effect in the United States since 1933. During the continued state of emergency, Congress voted to transfer powers from Congress to the President. The debate to end long-running states of National Emergency was ended in 1976 with the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601-1651), which limits any such declared emergencies to two years."

So today, if a national emergency is declared then it will only last for two years... okay. I don't know how it's been happening for the last 80 years or so, but whatever.

I know lots of people that are aware that the reserve isn't a real fed agency... people find out every day. But that doesn't mean anyone will or would do anything about it, they have no reason to.

That's simply one of many ideas he has that he hasn't explained. Like what he would do if we had no gold.
