You post some really ridiculous arguments Hawkmoon, my favorite was the 4 trillion dollars spent by Bush and friends as a BENEFIT to the taxpayers. Gold has few unique properties outside of many other metals. Some metals are on the verge of synthetic production. Your analysis of the uniqueness and value of gold is a little lacking. Thanks for dropping into the old sexual stereotypes, having nothing whatsoever to do with whatever you are putting forth. Yawn. BTW Gold and every other hard commodity, staple or not, is still going up due to your hero George Bush's massive spending so its not like gold is not a decent investment, along with all hard goods, thanks to the resumption of inflation.... don't get me wrong I am not saying not to buy gold. But to presume gold is somehow an irreplaceable product in terms of modern life and industry is just folly.
