 The U.S. gold (640 billion) to debt (35 trillion) ratio is insane. I think we all have in our heads how “rich” the United States is, Fort Knox, yada yada. 

I made a little pie chart. This is what it looks like 😂😭

 Pretty sure gov thinks they can swap gold for btc and do the same shit. Maybe they can, maybe they can't, but gold isn't gonna fix it. 
 Gold to Bitcoin, Bitcoin eats debt over time 

Default 

Inflate/money print debt away

Make citizens pay their share (about $100,000 per citizen) 😂 

Those are the options! 
 Is that the supposed Ft. Knox gold?

No one's seen it since the 40's and they refuse every audit request. Point is, your graph is overly generous. 
 Estimated total gold owned by U.S. 🤷🏼‍♂️
