That is certainly true.

But the gold of the super-wealthy wasn't confiscated, only the gold of 
the middle and lower classes.

This could be caused by what the americans call 'capitalism'.

I wouldn't call that system 'capitalism'. It's this specific US-system, 
which could be called 'the winner takes it all' and something, which 
people in other countries would call 'mob rule', while the official name 
is 'democracy'.

I don't think, that the US-president has much to decide.

It is more a 'speaker' and not a 'decider'.

The president cannot even decide, what he eats or where he wants to live.
