They want to get rid of "cash".......that way they can control or monitor your every movement. France is proposing no transactions over $1000 in cash unless your a foreigner............Dah, Central planning control.

in the mean time gartman has spoke, and so we must be closer to fail-safe February 13, 2013By "Davidson" reports: Dennis Gartman who is a respected short term investor indicated that gold ( GLD) appeared to be on the verge of a significant fall in US terms. Part of his interview with Melissa Lee is excerpted below. Dennis Gartman has been correct enough times to deserve listening to his comments in this instance.My observations indicate that commodities have been "financialized" more in the past 10yrs than we have seen in the past 100yrs. This means that many investors especially Hedge Funds have used futures to offset anticipated inflationary pressures in portfolios expected as the result of the Federal Reserve’s "Printing Money!" Gold has always been seen as a safe haven from inflation with oil, tin, copper, nickel and other commodities playing a role this time around. Even coffee rose 3x at its peak without any true shortage. Meanwhile, the actual inflation rates having risen to ~2% have been falling even with additional Federal Reserve financial stimulation, i.e. "Printing Money!". The latest inflation readings from the Dallas Fed are ~1.5% with the next 6-12mos appearing to be in a down-trend. Historically, inflation has always required government and individuals spending without care to value received. We do not have this situation today!
