TJ, that article you cited about supposed "currency controls" was over-hyped and misleading, as was your comment about the gate being installed. The gate already exists, and USA is just tightening up the financial reporting. The 30% withholding only applies in limited circumstances like moving money to a bank that doesn't report the transaction to the USA. There's nothing to stop US citizens from moving money around, unless they're involved in illegal activities they want to hide.

BTW, I keep looking for those USA "food riots" predicted by Gerald Celente in the piece you cited earlier. Does this count? ;)
