xsuddensam: I couldn't agree with you more. The whole point of gold acquisition is to preserve wealth and build a financial berm against financial disaster and social disorder.

istartedi: "History also tells us that gold can't even ensure against you being shot or hauled off to a concentration camp. In fact, it might make you a target. The SS and/or thugs are likely to end up with all your gold."-- Imagine coming to Texas to haul anyone off to a concentration camp or confiscate gold (or anything else for that matter). Methinks you assume too much.
regarding the war on drugs: business... strictly business. Afghanistan grows 90% of world's poppy crop. To industrialize it, tax it, and sell it on the open market would make Afghanistan the 'Saudi Arabia of narcotics' and send narco-manufacturers around the world into bankruptcy. Same for cocaine, a necessary evil for the GDP of South American states to pay back loans to US banks and to keep the friends of those banks in the power loop.
