  • U.S. Debt Default, Dollar Collapse Altogether Likely [View article]
    I have never understood goldbugs. If things get as bad as the author predicts what good is some shiny metal bricks going to do me. I can't eat or drink it. I can't build a shelter out of it. I am concerned about the future and the mistakes our federal government is making. I believe we will have substantial inflation in the medium and long term. I'm increasing the size of my vegetable garden, planting blueberries, enriching my soil to increase yields. I have extra canned food, water, hiking gear and ammunition. If the US currency becomes worthless we will revert to a barter system. I will be trading my extra food and gear, good luck with your shiny pile of metal. And for the record, I don't think it will get that bad. I am long on US and Brazilian stocks.
