Ron <<Bill has told us he is unpaid>> yes, and so that the opposite of
being paided does not happen, GATA pays for expenses to those who work
for NO pay and unless GATA puts up cash to cover the expenses accured
during these hours worked for no pay, then would be hard to continue.

For example, imagine you worked at the Red Cross or another relief agency
that is trying to help out folks hurt by a disaster, or a cruel policy
by the government and finanical money biggies that lowers the standard
of living to those already at the poverty level. Imagine you reported
to the Red Cross to help the nurses draw blood, and the Red Cross put
you in a room to help with the bookkeeping, and told you that you will
be billed for the rent money for the room.

You could do it this way, but I bet you would be more sucessful in getting
unpaided workers if all they need to release is their time, and not money.

Now I know that you are already composing a reply post about the GATA
cause is to only help upper middle class folks that ahve the extra money
to invest, and GATA is not for the poorer by income folks. But don't you
see, this point or focus by you just shows how misguided the understanding
of how currency plays a role in society. We both agree that the way to
increase the standard of living is to let all folks have the ability to
create a business, and thus jobs and increase the worth available to be
consumed. But you miss out in seeing that when bad people control the
means for growth so that they become riches, or more powerful, than their
fair share, that it either takes it away from the poor, or keeps the poor
from opportunities that would have been created.

the rich get richer and the poor get poorer
because of greed and incorrect controling policies
so bring back the gold standard
and you will see
the rich get richer and the poor get richer

And Ron, save me and this thread you repeating of the history of the
past that proves a gold standard was wrong or a failure. Maybe you
should read books with more than one view and interpertation. I bet
when you finish a book that you investigate the author and select only
those who he recommends. Ofcourse you read from the opposing view,
but not to learn, but as facts that are untrue and stupid.

. But I'm wondering if
he is counting those trips to DC as gifts or income. Eventually, he will
have to take a salary, unless he is indepently wealthy (we at least
could assume he is less wealthy given his unceasing love for gold shown
over the past several years).
