"Hmmm..., what constitutional obligation do they, or we, have to protect a specific part of the mining sector, namely gold mining??"

Hmmm...., what constitutional obligation do they, or we have to protect hedge funds, or the farming industry, or the auto industry or the steel industry or the ......

and as you previously stated your vision of government so clearly:

Gov't role is to reinstill that confidence, like slapping a hysterical person back to calmness, or putting a depression prone individual on mood altering medication.

Gov't proper role is help people to help themselves, not do it for them.
Ron Reece GPM #37450

Help me out here Ron, I'm having trouble finding in the Constitution that the government is to be a paternalistic social welfare case worker whose job is to slap people out of their fear. The constitution I'm reading even allows people to be afraid and not invest their money. Isn't it obvious to you that you are supporting a socialist agenda by your statements?

You allow constitutional violations all the time in your support of current governmental policy (which under current trends and administration mouths socialist goals to make the liberal intellectuals feel warm and fuzzy, while really functioning like fascists by using government bureaucracies to "regulate" private industry. Those regulations are then used to extort and or destroy private enterprises at the whim of the current administration (tobacco, medicine, etc.) depending on who is making contributions (payoffs?)).

When it serves your purpose you are a great constitutionalist but it sounds more like the constitution of the United Sociopathic Socialist Republic.
