  • Defaulting in Plain Sight [View article]
    There is no argument here reality is an absolute.

    If the government told you that a small amount of arsenic was nutritional and you where forced to eat it and everyone else was eating it, that would not make arsenic nutritional.

    Again reality is a an absolute.

    Small amount of arsenic will not kill you right away but it will kill you eventually.
    Paper money will not rob you of everything right away but it will rob you of everything you worked for eventually.

    Both statements are absolutes of reality.

    Put another way if you lived in a condo and loved your home, but an architect showed you the math behind why your build will collapse but could not tell you when because of random load distributions, and it collapses in 10 years not right away. Was the architect wrong? No, you could have moved let other stay and felt jealous that they enjoyed the build for 10 years. But the end result was an absolute the people left in the build when it did collapse died.

    I am not saying that paper money will collapse in 10 years, what I am saying is I do not know when it will collapse, and you could try and time it but does it makes sense to put your self at risk?

    No

    Thus gold and silver may go down priced in paper money but it will NEVER go to Zero.

  • What Lies Behind the CFTC's Revocation of Exemptions in Agriculture Position Limits?  [View article]
    Thanks, I could not figure out what Gary was up to. I knew he was not trying to create honest markets I just could not figure out his angle. Ted Butler is a good silver and gold analyst and knows why they are manipulated however, Ted only sees best intentions in everyone until those intentions are clear.

    This ability to see the good in all government actions until they turn bad will help him if he transitions to mainstream media, however his positive attitude brings irrational enthusiasm to the silver market in a world where the central bankers manage markets.

    Personally I rather see the truth than believe in a hopeful lie.

    I would like your take on the bank holiday non-sense going around the internet.

  • Who Let China's Silver Bulls Out? [View article]
    Silver and gold protect people from governments that print to much money.

    What's the historical success rate of fiat money again? ZERO

    But I am sure you think that will never happen because "this time it's different".

    lol

    The biggest question of all is why no highly regarded news agency has not followed up on this HUGE story! Fake or real treasury bonds the story is explosive.

  • Will Gensler Curb Manipulations in Futures Markets, or Is It Just Smoke and Mirrors? [View article]
    J.S. Kim

    I would have a better chance of emailing Santa Claus and asking him to stop manipulation of commodities.

    Lets get real here, Gary Gensler is a Goldman sucks boy he will do what's best for Goldmam. That is one thing you can ask Gary to do and he will do it.

    As for manipulation of gold and silver not ending soon? Well gold is not that far off it's REAL inflation adjusted amount of $1200 (aprox) and there is plenty above ground in deliverable form (5 billion oz). Silver on the other hand is so far off it's real inflation adjusted price it's unbelievable! Over $60 for it's real inflation amount and government inflation amount puts it at over $21! That's not all! The total deliverable amount of silver (in bars and coins) above ground is around 1 billion ounces!

    Silver will crack the exchanges soon (perhaps this is why Gary is pointing out manipulation to get out in front of it and not be blamed) the question is will it become mainstream news and affect the price?
    Nickel defaulted on the LME and there was collective yawn, will we see the same thing with silver?

    I don't know for sure but what I do know is paper is not money and I will not save it for my future retirement.

  • Strange Inconsistencies in the $134.5 Billion Bearer Bond Mystery [View article]
    You can speculate all you want as to circumstances surrounding this 134.5 billion dollar bond smuggling op. What ever the truth is, the net result is still the same, the US dollar is toast! Thus we shall see a rapid and painful decline in dollar's value in 2009.

  • Telltale Signs That a Significant Correction Isn't Imminent  [View article]
    I have read some of the comments.

    It's amazing how people actually believe the market is not manipulated and no group is working on a larger agenda. Its like Madoff did not exist or videos of Jim Crammer explaining how he manipulates the market does not exist.

    People who refuse to see the bitter truth are children holding on to the belief that Santa Claus exists. Also like children they get angry when you tell them the truth.

    Sad.

    I could not tell you if these childish adults deserve their fate or not.

  • Exchange Stabilization Fund Recounts History of Gold Manipulation [View article]
    "To provide foreign currency to repay the Fed's swap drawings, the Treasury during the 1960s issued non-marketable foreign currency-denominated medium-term securities (Roosa bonds) and sold the proceeds to the Federal Reserve."

    Am I stupid or is the above paragraph meaningless? It would help if the writer explained the terms such as swap drawings?
    I am guessing but is "non-marketable foreign currency denominated medium-term securities" is company stock in a foreign market?!?

    I mean come on now, we can't have a new renaissance age when people who are against the fed write like they do!

    Truth be told I can figure it out but it would help if there was some explanation.

  • Beware of Ulterior Motives Behind Statements of Financial Experts [View article]
    Helicopter Ben did admit that printing money is a tax when asked by Ron Paul. The outrage that should come from that is a private company can tax people.

  • Will We See More Lawsuits Against the Investment Banks? [View article]
    The bible passage was not translated correctly, hebrew has no word for money as silver is money. Also the context of the word gold in the sentence translate to "bond" as a man's bond or promise to pay was as good as gold.

    Thus...
    "They shall cast there money in the streets, and the bond shall be removed"

    This shows that people will throw away money and their debts would be removed.
    This passage was directed at bankers.

  • Gaping Hole in the Deflation Argument [View article]
    I was about to add my 2 cents worth about the economy when I realized everyone had a different opinion on how it works.

    I am just going to stick to absolute truths and not predict what will happen.

    1. Paper money has NO intrinsic value.
    2. Gold has intrinsic value and has been money over the last 6000 years.
    3. Paper money on the other hand the value of things priced in paper money ALWAYS goes up.
    4. Things priced in gold do go up but stay in a wave pattern of over valued under valued that you can draw a flat straight line across. Thus over time prices of things you want seem to be flat when priced in gold.


    The above points have been 100% true for 6000 years, thus when gold goes down you should not buy things with your gold you should save gold. When gold goes up in value you should buy things with your gold.

    Sure you will never make any money with your gold but you can't lose if you follow the above strategy. Who knows you may get lucky and your government hyper inflates the currency and you can buy whole city blocks. :)

  • Why BAC Will Beat: Understanding a New Bull Market Is Not Underway [View article]
    I was just about to send the articles to a few friends when I read the comments and realized. The statements in this blog is like telling people they are in the Matrix. Truth is they are living in a dream world and they have been tricked all their lives, I believed the dream for so long it was hard for me to let go.

    Today I see from the comments people are still dreaming as no one said to buy gold. I mean the one person who did buy it thinks it's an investment. No, it's not gold IS money in this musical chairs game of catch the paper money potato the last one not sitting in a gold and silver chair gets burned by the hot potato.

    Me I've tried the gambling thing it's not for me I just want to produce a real good and save gold and silver. Some one has to do it or you gamblers could not eat.
