One of the most stubborn errors regarding the gold standard is the idea that a poor country is not in a position to maintain the gold standard. But the gold standard has absolutely nothing to do with the greater or lesser wealth of a country. Every country, whether rich or poor, can have a well-ordered currency if it abstains from triggering the working of Gresham's Law (according to which good money is driven out by bad), avoids the excessive issuing of paper money, and refrains from artificially lowering the interest rate through large increases of fiduciary media. Money has never flowed out of countries that have had only metallic currency; it remains there precisely because of trade.
