Don't worry about China getting all the gold. King Midas had it all once upon a time. The Bunker Brothers almost had all the silver but oooopppsss.... sometimes the metaphysical certitude of Aztecs getting rich by clutching their family jewels and hiding in the hills doesn't work out quite as planned: silvermonthly.com

Suppose China gets all the gold in the world. They need quite a bit to make gold contacts on cyberspace electronics, and perhaps for some other applications, but other than that, who cares if they just hide it in some tunnels under Beijing? So what?

A lot more gold is hidden underground by nature. It will just sit there happily.

Democratic process problems is a brain problem, not a gold problem. People voted for Helen Clark for most of the 21st century then wonder why they are feeling poor and do better by fleeing the country. It's nothing to do with gold.

to paraphrase bonner, gold is neither money nor investment, but a state of mind and faith, a political and religious metal.

gold worth is rising because people and nations are casting ballots :0)
