Re; Gold backed bonds. Have not heard that idea in quite some time. (A few years ago Paul Kasriel of the Northern Trust brought it up.) It would sure be a lot more attractive to U.S. taxpayers given that their share of IMF operations is about 17%. I don’t even think that a majority of U.S. political progressives would like to finance part of any Greek bailout. We need to hear more of these practical ideas on CNBC.
