This actually happened, and shortly after discovering the heist the Nixon administration ended the gold standard.

Becky was one of the attorneys who overturned gold tarrifs on precious metal imports from West Africa.

The gold standard was eliminated before she began practicing law.

In 1944 after FDR they brought back the gold standard at Bretton-Woods.

Who do you think ended that second gold standard?
