Your problem Ron, is you like to argue! you want an argument. You want to take the other side - no matter if the "other side" is right or wrong. Now, add to that the fact that you have not been around the block enough to see the possible evil of the current "excessive government is better government" school of thought and you are going to come off against most people on this thread every time.
In ways you like some bigger government and your desire to argue brings you to defend the side which is often very wrong. I, likewise, willl argue for an idea I hold dear, even when I can not support many on "my side" of the argument.
Many who have been here longer than you, know I have found, more than a little, proof I am of mixed race. Yet I gladly allowed you to push me into a corner from which I had to defend the rights of bigots and racists. I defend these rights gladly. In the free land of my birth, everyone has the freedom of speech, even stupid ugly racist speech.
You, were far less than unwilling, to take the side FOR a bigger government more abusive of personal rights. Truth is you do not love freedom. Gold represents that very freedom. The FDIC & the treasury do not like the freedom which gold gives and represents. They wish to know every dollar we save earn or spend. They would be willing to use your friends, "the weekend warriors", toward this end. They will do anything - Yes Anything - to achieve the goal of an all seeing and knowing government.
That you would help them and defend their point of view is of no surprise.
