Ed, you said;
--Forgive me for rambling on but I am thoroughly disgusted with the crookedness which is permitted in what is emerging as an increasingly corrupt financial government---which,incidentally is parallel to the corrupt Clinton administration ---are they related?--

it is not only the financial portion, but also our so called representatives on capitol hill who, by the way, are more interested in looking out for #1 their party, #2 themselves( and I can't figure out which actually comes first,) and #3 "we the people" are dead last. There, I feel better now that I have that off my chest. VBG

<<The real crooks are those who engaged in the feeding frenzy using the gold carry procedure. They include hedge funds and operators like Goldman Sachs >> Well, I agree with this part...and it's possible that some big mining companies were in cahoots and really understood what the game was...but I don't think I have it backwards....according to Bill Murphy:

"I had reports of the "Hannibal Cannibals" going to producers telling them they HAD to sell forward or risk losing their credit lines."

and

"Support for GATA has picked up and I have received significant information from South Africa that some of the major producers have united in a formal unwritten agreement to cut back production to further gouge the bullion dealer and hedge fund shorts." (Murphy, 10/3)

If these remarks and duplicity or duress are substantiated, then I think litigation is likely to follow, as I mentioned earlier.

Hillary Clinton's blind trust shorted gold the day before
