using gold as a currency (you can't use gold as a currency and make it a reserve currency retard) would mean that there wouldn't be enough money; therefore, the price of goods would decline, jobless rate would increase, because there is less economic transaction due to a lack of currency and money won't be able to be lent at a low rate as "virtual currency" is not gold, making goods that requires a large capital good investment, such as computers and other electronics, much more expensive to produce.
