The idea of government is to sound as sanctimonious as possible about babies, hospitals, roads, schools, and donations to the poor, while lining the pockets of their friends to the greatest amount allowable by the obfuscation of the bureaucratic maze. All one has to do to find the degree of honesty of government is to go to all the loyal ridings or congressional districts and gauge the amount of money spent on public buildings, infrastructure, and the homes of government workers and contractors. It is a remarkably simple equation. In Canada the dominance of the liberal government since the Second World War is clearly reflected in the astonishing opulence of the more loyal ridings that is not explainable to any degree by their ordinary private sector wealth generation. The ideal illustrated by the phrase "Bob's Your Uncle" is alive and well in Canada today. en.wikipedia.org

This news flash just in from Alpha Centauri. The Chinese government has admitted they are guilty of buying gold. Their reserves now stand at 1054 tonnes. That is 33,877,315 ounces troy. The SPDR Gold Trust, an ETF, has been buying gold also since the beginning of the year. The unwinding of its position in the last week reflects what ETF's are doing lately which has probably contributed to the recent weakness in POG.
