Real Americans Buy Gold! Any American who values how the country was founded, right and wrong, and personal freedom should be putting some money into gold. Of course, if you go by the Clinton/Corporate/90's philosophy of, "if it feels good, do it -- if I can get away with it, screw 'em -- everyone's a victim -- there is no absolute right and wrong", then by all means, keep buying worthless paper and playing the game until the music stops, because, of course, you will take the chair from someone else, right? That's the American way. Unfortunately, the American way did not forsee that the people they let in the country by their, "everyone's a victim" stance and their spending too much time "feelin' good" would ever feel like the gap between rich and poor was unjustified. Nor did they forsee that these same people's religion actually told them that dying for their "cause" would be the only way to close this gap. Living gives zero hope of rising from the ashes, but dying gives instant wealth and happiness. America's lost moral base, laziness, and ignorance has set it up for a brutal awakening. It's only been nudged so far. I don't want to get off on a moral diatribe, but when a people can kill tens of thousands of babies each year with no conscience, but view a plane attack that takes 3500 lives as world-changing, government-changing, freedom-changing, then there really is little hope left. Words from officials mean little. Just look at Enron, Tyco, etc. Actions tell what is truly happening. You may not see the point between all of this ranting and gold buying, but they are very entwined. It is the motives for all of this. It is the moral judgments in all of this. Buying gold now makes not just good sense, it makes a statement against much that is wrong with America and a statement for much of the past good that has been destroyed. Destroyed intentionally and with even more evil intent. I may be a raving lunatic, but those who see nothing, will eventually get nothing. Be an American . . . an American from days past when freedom and liberty meant something . . . when life had value . . . when currency was real. Buy gold. Tell the tree-loving, irresponsible, politically correct, lying, cheating, global, morally bankrupt crowd to take a flying leap. lewrockwell.com I remain, SOROS
