Gold breaking new channels & the dollar breaking down by LHII lizardz44@qwest.net May 20, 2003 321gold.com After all that Gold lovers and investors have been through so far this year, it seemed unlikely that more drama was in store for a while, and yet here we are a full year from the time when Gold broke through the $300 level and for the second time since then we have another full fledged major rally ongoing. Obviously this is due primarily to the present simultaneous collapse of the dollar, and the yet again renewed fears and worries brought on by terrorism, and then not to forget those associated with what does look now to be a turn downward for the markets in general, after a rally which many questioned even before it began, and yet one which has been stronger than expected by most observers from all angles far and wide both bull and bear. / jim

President Bush has proposed shifting the U.S. tax system to one that taxes consumption rather than income. The change would be as historically significant as America's shift from a tariff-based tax system in the nineteenth century to an income-based tax system in the twentieth. Such an approach is critical; it is essential for the future health of the nation. So I hope it actually happens. I'd love to see some comments about this idea. This indeed would be a dramatic change. jpg
