There's always the gold standard.
Hi Valerie. I claim zero expertise on this subject, but from what I've read, the gold standard isn't a good idea because, as a finite asset, it's deflationary. The economy would theoretically grind to a halt as people wait for the prices of goods and services to continue to drop.
Now, I don't know what our financial experts would think about that, but it is my understanding.
