As it is, the finances of the world have been for years misused and the time has to come that some one has to pay the piper.Guess who that someone is...again? Lemmee guess... all of us?? Because that is what will happen to everyone currently enjoying the fruits of the current economic system. You bet there are abuses in the Fiat money system. Bankers in their quests for greater profits and desire to demonetize gold decided to least out their holdings for a nice sum of annual income. Basically, the only reasons they hold gold are that it places it in strong hands so they can prevent it from challenging their currency as well as playing to the "gold crowd" who have continued to feed the public the myth that gold has intrinsic value. As for Hitler... there were many Jews and others who had their gold confiscated from them (including their gold teeth), as they were sent to the gas chamber. Had Hitler chosen to claim that gold had to be confiscated to support the war effort, there would have been very little ability for the people to dissent. As the Colombians so eloquently put it: "Plata O Ploma" (Silver or lead... take your pick) Regards, Ron

All, <And in the end, the world gov'ts will confiscate your gold>> If this is a fear of yours: Remember the #1 use of gold is as jewelry. Bezels are available for those Eagles, Maple Leaves, and K-Rand. Be ready now, to turn them into ear rings, necklace, bracelet.... How many 1/10 Eagles could a woman hang off a charm bracelet? Ever watch those old movies where the person bit the edge of the ring to see if it was near pure? Watch for those bite marks in K-rands..
