I am concerned with all government actions that are designed to make those with the money and power get even more money and power, but I have no illusions about being able to stop them. The only thing I can do is to try and keep from getting stomped on. Gold has always been a good defensive move to protect the common man against those that would rule and exploit him. Perhaps gold is no longer the shield it once was, but if not what is? Sorry if that last statement in my last post came off wrong. It was just an extreme example of what has been and could be justified by some governments by saying that it was all done by the book. It was not meant to be directed towards you or anyone else. I am glad to see you took it lightly as it was intended.
