佛州可不是小打小闹。它是美国人口第三大州，经济总量能排全球前二十。这么个"大块头"突然甩开美元拥抱金银，等于在美元霸权的心脏上插了把刀。德 桑蒂斯签完字就放话："联邦政府拼命印钞，咱老百姓的血汗钱不能跟着蒸发！"他翻出数据啪啪打脸：黄金从2015年到现在涨了快两倍，可美元购买力呢？ 自1971年和黄金脱钩后，直接缩水90%以上。有个议员算得更扎心：1979年买套房要268盎司黄金，现在同价值的房还是268盎司黄金——变的不是金子，是 美元成了"纸"。 我是真没想到，第一个朝美元"开枪"的居然是美国人自己。就在前天（5月27日），佛罗里达州州长德桑蒂斯大笔一挥，签了份法案——黄金白银正式成为 佛州法定货币。这意味着啥？你去便利店买瓶水，理论上能用金币付钱；欠了债，掏块银条也能抵账。更绝的是，州政府要求PayPal这类支付平台必须接受 金银转账，连销售税都给免了。 为啥佛州非要硬啃这块骨头？德桑蒂斯的小算盘响着呢。他去年竞选总统败给特朗普，正需要新招牌。签法案时他故意呛联邦政府："国会到现在一分钱没 省，全是空话！"这招"金银抗通胀"牌，摆明了拉拢对美元失望的选民。美国宪法其实留了道缝：各州虽不能造币，但能用金银 ...
