Taiwan's Currency Backed by Gold Reserves: Central Bank

A central bank official announced on Friday that Taiwan holds around 422 tonnes of gold in reserve, managed by the Central Bank of the Republic of China (Taiwan) to support the national currency.
Of this, 410 tonnes are dedicated to backing the issuance of New Taiwan dollars, while a smaller portion is used every four years to mint commemorative coins for the inauguration of the president and vice president.
As of the first quarter of 2024, Taiwan ranks 12th globally in gold reserves.
Despite a significant increase in gold's value since its purchase in the 1970s, the central bank is not buying or selling its reserves.
Taiwan's unrealized gain from these reserves is nearly NT$900 billion due to gold's appreciation.

Rep. Buddy Carter introduced a bill to eliminate the IRS and federal income tax

On January 3, 2025, Congressman Buddy Carter (R-GA) introduced H.R. 25, known as the FairTax Act of 2025.
This legislation proposes a significant overhaul of the U.S. tax system by eliminating the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and replacing federal income taxes with a national consumption tax.
The FairTax Act aims to repeal existing personal and corporate income taxes, as well as other federal taxes such as the death tax, gift taxes, and payroll taxes. In their place, it would implement a single national sales tax on retail purchases, administered primarily by the states. Proponents argue that this system would simplify the tax code, promote economic growth, and allow individuals to retain their entire paychecks, paying taxes only when they make purchases.
Congressman Carter has been a longstanding advocate for the FairTax, having previously introduced similar legislation in earlier sessions of Congress. He contends that the current tax system is overly complex and burdensome, and that the FairTax would eliminate the need for the IRS, thereby reducing government intrusion into individuals' financial affairs.
The bill has been referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means for further consideration.
