Re TX gold: Smart idea ... why leave assets where socialist politicians could seize them? Cuomo and de Blasio are a crook and a commie, respectively.

Jon Stewart demoted his only black writer over Stewart's racist mocking of Herman Cain Jon Stewart CURSED OUT And DEMOTED ONLY Minority Writer on ‘Daily Show’ After He Criticized Racist Herman Cain Sketch! ..... After that, the segment aired as Stewart intended: a medley of all the people Stewart has impersonated over the course of the show, including other black men such as President Obama. Cenac spent a miserable final year on the show, demoted from writer/correspondent to just correspondent. Yeah this is not surprising at all. A smug arrogant liberal like Jon Stewart thinks he can be racist as long as he’s down for the cause. And if anyone challenges him, he lashes out like a petulant child. ..... http://soopermexican.com/2015/07/25/jon-stewart-cursed-out-and-demoted-only-minority-writer-on-daily-show-after-he-criticized-racist-herman-cain-sketch/

That would be sad if it gets pissed away. That has already started. One thing that we got with Republican rule has been becoming a premier kleptocracy. Still nowhere near the lofty heights that Russia has attained, but doing an admirable job with the limited resources the state has. The gold is held by the UT investment fund for UT and TAMU.And that fund is slowly being partitioned off into the hands of Perry and Abbott's cronies. It is another Libertarian fantasy. They will try and get a few, idealistic investors. After a while, things will stagnate and the managers will get a little creative to get past this or that temporary problem. Sooner or later it will evolve into a Ponzi scheme, whether or not that was the original goal. Then it will see some strong growth, eventually collapsing in a shower of lawsuits and exclamations of "how could anyone have seen this coming?" and "they seemed like such nice, friendly and helpful people"... Oh and "it would have worked if there hadn't been so many gosh-darned regulations".
