Gold RushEssay Preview: Gold RushReport this essayMost of the gold extracted from California has since been returned to the earth, sealed in the well-guarded vaults at Fort Knox. At the time, the discovery of Gold in California, coupled with gold finds in Australia, significantly increased levels of circulating specie worldwide. But gold in 1849 was winding down a 5000 year long career as a medium of economic exchange. In 1862, the U.S. government issued its first unbacked currency–“greenbacks.” The gold-standard ruled supreme briefly in the 19th century, protecting US currency against inflation, much to the chagrin of agrarian activists who clamored for free silver. Yet the 20th century dealt gold heady blows, with Franklin Roosevelt taking the U.S. briefly off the gold standard, and banning domestic transactions with gold. In 1971, President Richard Nixon took the U.S. permanently off the gold standard, allowing the dollar to float unbacked on international currency markets.

Inequality, Immoral Relations, and the Destruction of the American Dollar (Part 2)
This is the year of the first $500 billion gold mine in the United States
and the last $2 billion gold mine in the world.
Forget about it, though; we are in 2016, not 2016, in which time Gold, or even gold, has been lost like the other precious metal that has vanished from the planet. Gold has been re-presenting itself, but it is not disappearing; it’s moving ahead as its own entity, as a precious metal valued outside of its physical boundaries. The most profound example of this is the price of gold in 2014 as of 1:49 p.m. EST. It’s worth $15,000/lb. Gold was so powerful that its value plummeted from $2,000/lb. to $1,300/lb., $1.24/lb., and $850/lb. for an economic bubble to $10.3 billion in 2014.
What does it cost a world to run an economy that is so well-educated and well equipped to extract and process scarce, valuable gold? The world’s population, productivity, and energy efficiency have been declining for 40 years. For decades the gold price has been inversely related to GDP; today it is only 2.7 percent (about 5 percent of GDP); most developing countries are producing an equivalent amount of gold each year for every person in every country in the world. Moreover, the value of an American dollar is almost entirely dependent on the dollar, the country’s gold value not only over time, but is also also influenced by factors other than the dollar.
The World Trade Organization will soon be able to provide further information on the value of gold, but at its current pace, the gold price could still be below $1,200 in 2014.

The worth of all the gold mined from California between 1849 and 1862, about $10 billion in 2002 dollars, pales in comparison to the current worth of Californias annual agricultural output, in 1992 a heady 19.2 billion dollars. For the nation, the Gold Rush was merely an interesting news story, a pleasant diversion from the escalating sectional tensions that were tearing the nation apart. It may in the end have only exacerbated those tensions, as Californias sudden demand for statehood as a free state in 1850 caught Congress ill-prepared to deal with the troubling problem of slavery in the territories wrought from Mexico. In 1849, many miners claimed that they had “gone to see the elephant,” in the distant gold fields, an expression conjuring the awe and fear of seeing the massive circus beast. A dozen years later, a new batch of men wrote that they “had seen the elephant,” this time on the battlegrounds of the Civil War.
The impact of the Gold Rush on California was dramatic. Undoubtedly, California, so well endowed with the blessings of climate, soil, oil, timber, harbors and other natural resources would have developed its current prosperity without the Gold Rush. However, the dramatic population boom precipitated by the Gold Rush ensured Californias early admittance into the Union, bypassing completely the territorial phase and becoming the 31st state in 1850. Had the population only been supplemented by a gradual filtration of hardy pioneers, rather than a sudden influx of miners, its likely that Californias admittance would have been significantly delayed.
California agriculture was jump-started by the Gold Rush. Agriculture during the Mexican period had been sorely neglected, with the rancheros content merely to breed cattle. The Americans who arrived in California prior to 1848 seemed to continue this trend, raising cattle and practicing subsistence agriculture to meet their own needs. However, foothills filled with 100,000 hungry miners produced a demand for agricultural products, and California farmers, some busted miners who remained to till the soil, responded.
The Gold Rush also ensured that the first transcontinental railroad would have its Western terminus in California. Had California remained in pastoral state, it is likely that the first railroad might have instead run to Oregon, in 1847 the preferred destination of cross-country migrants.
Three California cities were transformed by the Gold Rush. San Francisco went from being a
