Hey Russ, no disrespect but as much as I think you are right about the "blue pill" you must agree that our current situation in the U.S. financial markets clearly demonstrates that Agent Smith is still in control of the Matrix. In fact Agent Smith has not lost a battle with Neo since March 2003. Makes you wonder why any of us even bother buying put options even for the very short term.

Doesn't matter what pill you take. Wonderland won't end up the way you expect. Everyone is a slave because that's what they prefer. You have to be a slave to markets, do what the market is doing, in order to benefit from participation in markets. You have to be a slave to your job to succeed there. You have to be a slave of Gold Bug philosophy since you seek to benefit from its slavery. You have to be a slave everywhere or you won't make it, because economics is a closed system, and in a closed system slavery pays. Don't take that pill. If you don't take either pill, you'll be out, out of money, and that's the only way to be free. The biggest slaves of all are those bound to what they think money will deliver. Will you be happy if the world follows your collapse theory? The powers that be will restrict what you can do with your paper PMs, and if you get the hard stuff, you'll have to defend it against all those slaves, with guns, with plenty of unanticipated suffering. Better learn that under duress your only protection is anonymity. Of course, you can believe in the Fairyland where all the world falls apart but you skate through on the pill that makes you larger. You have to remember though that for every enlargement pill there's a pill being swallowed that makes all the swallowers smaller. The slaves swallow that. The slaves will shrink, making you a larger target, and authority won't be there to protect you. So you had better not swallow any pill especially not the ones sold by Paluvu salesmen.
