There are reasons 'given' for its behaviour, and then there are actual reasons we are NOT given! And I would challenge Chuck to explain how he proposes to "remove" a misbehaving politician from the White House.

The wild card is the junior-league group in the Executive branch. I would not put anything off the table when they are in the mix. Under circumstances where they think it is in their best interest, they might try it. The result would likely be the same as stated in this article.

Our government would never try to confiscate gold and upset the already upset people of this nation. We have been lied to for way too many years now and we won't take it any longer. Many are hording gold and silver in a big way today as they know that the fiat currency the American Dollars is worthless and it is just a matter of time before it is no longer accepted as a means of tendering. People will still be required to have something of value to spend so as to purchase the necessary items needed to survive. These people are light years ahead of the masses because of their forward thinking. Look at where we are at today. We have a president that has not lived up to anything he campaigned for. In fact he has done a complete reversal and joined the ranks of thoses that came before him. I believe he has done a worst job then the last president. Get the word out Trace. We The People are suppose to be in charge and those elected are to follow our lead through the voting process. If they can't do this then they must be removed. All of you out there reading this right now had better wake up to the reality of today and start protecting yourself with precious metal and none-precious metal the kind that goes bang. Buy gold but buy silver in a bigger way for that is the means to survive this storm. Chuck Madere Hi Trace,
I just read your article on Gold Confiscation and found it to extremly right on. Our government would never try to confiscate gold and upset the already upset people of this nation. We have been lied to for way too many years now and we won’t take it any longer.

Many are hording gold and silver in a big way today as they know that the fiat currency the American Dollars is worthless and it is just a matter of time before it is no longer accepted as a means of tendering.

People will still be required to have something of value to spend so as to purchase the necessary items needed to survive. These people are light years ahead of the masses because of their forward thinking.

Look at where we are at today. We have a president that has not lived up to anything he campaigned for. In fact he has done a complete reversal and joined the ranks of thoses that came before him. I believe he has done a worst job then the last president.

Get the word out Trace. We The People are suppose to be in charge and those elected are to follow our lead through the voting process. If they can’t do this then they must be removed.

All of you out there reading this right now had better wake up to the reality of today and start protecting yourself with precious metal and none-precious metal the kind that goes bang. Buy gold but buy silver in a bigger way for that is the means to survive this storm.

They could not use the gold they have kept to buy anything and its value is worthless or at least severely debased. But good insights on the international reaction to such a move. Yet, the climate is right for the FRN being worthless and it no longer being the world currency standard. When that happens the leverage that international perception is lost; so goes the FRN so goes the gold. New fiat money will be issued.
