"A gata nut joke is like an elephantine joke without the elephant." Speech given to The Alaska Miners Association gata.org Bill Murphy, Chairman Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee Inc.(GATA) gata.org Fairbanks, Akaska March 10, 2000 ... I am here in behalf of GATA..... ... GATA has the attention of the United States Congress. ... there are many other Senators and Congressman that are also requesting answers to GATA's questions from the Treasury in behalf of their outraged constituents, including Senator Dodd of Connecticut and Kansas Congressman Jim Ryun, the first high schooler to run the mile in under 4 minutes. When the GATA delegation visits Washington, we will formally request a full Congressional inquiry, or investigation, into the gold market which we believe has greatly benefited a number of New York financial institutions at the expense of so many unsuspecting others - like US. We will tell them we are upset because we have invested in a game that was fraudulently rigged against us. In hindsight, we never had a chance. In the meantime, the "in the know" crowd was borrowing gold at 1% gold lease rates and investing those funds in all kinds of investments, thereby making a fortune. ... we are mad as hell and we are not going to take it any more. I do not think it will sit well if Americans find out that the New York investment banking crowd became richer -in violation of U.S law - at the expense of unsuspecting others. It will be even worse a scandal if they had the blessing of the US Treasury or NY Fed - or, have put our gold reserves in Fort Knox in jeopardy. Does not the U.S government preach the importance of "free markets" and non-government interference to the rest of the world? My fellow Americans up here in Alaska. What has transpired in the gold financial arena has greater significance than the gold market itself and that is what we will tell Congress. When I approached Absolut Vodka artist, Alain Despert, about doing a GATA painting, I only gave him the background of what I felt was going on. In his natural brilliance, it was he who came up with the idea of GATA shining "LIGHT" on a "DARK" situation, the idea of "THE PEOPLE" taking on "the big money New York banks" and a facet of the U.S. government - and of a Don Quixote like effort to right an unrightable wrong, to beat an unbeatable foe. That is our quest, Alaskans. For G-A-T-A is how America became America. G-A-T-A It stands for Going Against The Authorities - when they are wrong. America became America because the colonists fought for what was right, they took on the establishment, risking their lives to fight TYRANNY - to fight TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION. Is that not so! Well, what this collusion crowd has done to all of us in the gold industry is not all that much different and, funny enough, the British are involved once again. But, just like in 1776, the British and their allies will lose one more time. The voice of the aggrieved people, those of us that believe in free markets will be heard. The internet, in all its glory, is making all this possible. GATA has support all over the world now as our message is resounding via this omnipresent medium. The gold price spikes up in September and January can be likened to minor eruptions of a dormant volcano that is becoming active. These recent gold price spikes up were just warnings of what is to come. It is clear that the shorts are now very desperate in their efforts to contain a full blown volcanic-like explosion. The Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee is making great strides in exposing the despicable scandal of the manipulation of the gold market... ... we will all have a different perspective towards those who "tilt at windmills." Thank you. [End. Bill Murphy talks about GATA activity.]
