<What would you have us do!! ...?> What would you have Slider do? Stop posting his insights? Pleeze. <You honestly think the Mom and Pop's of this country have much of a say?> Damn right they/we do! Once they wake up -- what else is Slider trying to do? The key is courage -- will they have the courage or will the state frighten everyone, especially with modern technology being so pervasive? Luddite anyone? <What would you have us do!! ...?> Instead of complaining, you may wish to share thoughts i'm sure you have. My answer to mom's and pops is to get out o' the market - until the slime is cleaned up - maybe never. Or take precautions such as get certificates (now unavailable!), get real bullion (pain in neck!), get productive assets or knowledge (ie. useful in a degraded society!) or simply flee (easiest for those with connections back home). JIMhO. Wake up call = work in progress. We need a list!
