Silver Prices Are About to Fall

As a holder of physical silver and an investor in a broad collection of miners, You arguments sound plausible to me. I plan to sit tight since I believe the destruction of the U.S. currency lies ahead.

Making Canada Our 51st State Could Make It Easier to Buy American

The more I read of the article, the more I concluded it was tongue-in-cheek since it was so outrageous. I am a native born citizen of the U.S. I admit we Yankees have our many faults and warts. I sometimes fantasize a giant power saw coming down and cutting the U.S. off from the world and drifting into outer space. I suppose the rest of mankind would live in peace ,harmony, and brotherhood, right??? I'm told the Nicaraguan National Anthem proclaims the U. S. is the "enemy of all mankind". For the benefit of my fellow Gringos, consider this: Siberia is a vast land with great mineral resources, timber, oil, gas, and water.To the South is a teeming nation of much more than a billion people, eager to consume all those resources. The Russians, in their private moments must say to themselves: "Oh my God!". By the same token, consider the relationship of Canada and the U.S: a very large nation to the north filled with minerals, timber, water, oil and gas. A population of about 30 million versus a population of 330 million( the illegals count too). I am sure the Canadians must have some of the same feelings for us as The Russians have for the Chinese. In spite of the dreamers at the U.N., I believe the sovereign state still has a future but there are limits on governability. Imagine dealing with all those Francophones? The Anglo Canadians have their hands full. Jack Gordon's approval of the health care system in Canada suggests to me he has not had conversations with Canadians that I have. I have met Canadian patients and physicians who came south. I really don't believe anyone has devised a health care system that works well.
