I'm absolutely sure the US has gold - I'm just not sure they have as much as they say (why don't they allow it to be audited?)
Probably because if they were audited and we had actual figures for Printed US dollars / Tons of Gold We would see something like $50,000 US for 1oz of Gold and then it'd be funny
well a ploy of central banks to tame the gold price has been to publicly advise they have sold shedloads of gold, the average punter becomes spooked, so conversely if we knew they had shedloads the sentiment may be reversed?
Well this is just a commentry, one person's view, on the latest events which are being reported by the newsgroups, maybe the spin is a little off but the events have happenned. The links in the report don't all point to other tin foil hat wearing blogs but to genuine 'news' sites. Only time will tell
Thanks for the read. Heard about the tungsten bars before. The truth may well be stranger than fiction. I mean OBL was murdered and then thrown in the ocean apparently. I'm more worried about gold hoarded by the world's wealthy families. A world with a gold-backed currency really is at their mercy if they don't like the way things are. I think sovereign, responsible issuance of currency or private currency makes a lot more sense in theory.
Doesn't mater, gold isn't what they/we need...it's cheap oil/energy. Can't fight wars, expand an economy or grow food with gold!
You believe in coincidence? The Russians do not. Same thing happen to Julian Assange - another coincidence?
The world will move to gold standard I think, and US government knows this but will not admit it. If world thinks US has gold in Fort Knox then it helps to keep dollar artificially high. US can make war using their monopoly money while world believes they have lots of gold. I believe that US will go to war in Middle East soon. Target most probably Iran. This could be start of world war 3. Will depend if Russia and China watch or decide to resist Anglo aggessiveness. But I am deviating too far now.
