I would like tradable citizenships so the value of a country is recognized. I am in the process of producing a single currency for the world. Local yokels would still have their own of course and there are many ways to exchange value other than money, just as there are many ways other than metres to measure the length of something. But as with the silly local yokel languages, the local currencies will fall into disuse unless they have got something special going for them. A metricated American seems most likely to become the lingua franca. Olde Englische has fallen into disuse. Gold was an excellent safe haven during the financial panic. I hope everyone sold at the top when they rang the bell to say the game was over and it's back to the boring old normal everyday banal world of work, buying groceries, and going to the toilet. Since somebody has to buy at the top for everyone to sell at the top, I suppose a lot of the "no-brainer" gold owners who climbed up the mountain to wait for the end of the world are still sitting there clutching their little gold totems, wondering when The Rapture is going to begin. They'll get cold and hungry after a while. Somebody in the village will buy their gold from them to decorate their hat or something [if it's cheap enough]. Sorry folks. It looks as though it was a false alarm. No, wait! This is a no-brainer buying opportunity. The Rapture is coming to a village near you and K-100 is a temporary bargain. When gold is $10,000 an ounce in the financial reset zone, you'll kick yourselves if you don't load up more now. Mqurice
