A Gold Bug - Perhaps
"When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it."….. FREDERIC BASTIAT (From his important book ‘The Law).

Bastiat? That's awful Classical-Liberal of you.
Oops, didn't catch that - I thought that was a reference to liberals (read: socialist/communist) doing their social engineering stuff. My bad!
Gold pushing toward $1300.00 the ounce, and silver heading toward $20.00. Just saying. :)
I heartily approve of classic liberalism, e.g. Bastiat, Jefferson, Tocqueville, etc., if it stays within its bounds.
Their fatal flaw was (and remains) rejection of God's Law over-against the god Reason.
